Additional credit to multiple members of the Matsen, Victora, and other labs, especially @GallowayJared for coding; @tylernstarr and @jbloom_lab for deep mutational scanning; @WardLab1 for cryo-EM; and @TheArmita and @yun_s_song for help with math modeling

In new study, I have analyzed correlation between SARS-CoV-2 & animal genetic material in full set of environmental samples from Huanan Seafood Market.

Analysis clarifies what sequencing these samples can & cannot tell us about early outbreak at market.

@FromPhDtoLife GitHub Projects is super simple with or without code!

A great thread clarifying some (poorly reported imo) claims about raccoon-dog origins.

[Bloom Lab @jbloom_lab]

The sample that has attracted the most attention is the mostly light green pie circle, for which the dominant mtDNA is from a raccoon dog. This has attracted attention because raccoon dogs are one of several species known to be susceptible to SARS2.

In my mind, the lab leak hypothesis should be a warning case study in how hypotheses about a high-uncertainty event can arbitrarily align with political orientations early on, and have massive negative repercussions later in how we objectively weigh evidence and discuss things.

@marktenenholtz Did you apply bonferroni correction?

@vsbuffalo miniconda be like

@vsbuffalo Try https://t.co/psaY4fg8nH!

@WashburneAlex @m_de_spinoza Because it’s 1-indexed 😂 it also breaks many other important comp sci heuristics that are quite important when engineering something moderately big. R simply is not general purpose.

@WashburneAlex The first computer program I ever wrote was the trapezoidal approach to estimating integrals for calculus. Miss a few points for not using parabolas 🤦‍♀️

@nntaleb In my opinion the best way to drink a nice whiskey is … however you like to drink a nice whiskey. It seems petty and immature to tell others how they should enjoy.

[Jared Galloway @GallowayJared]

@vsbuffalo Hard to say if I’ve had this exact problem. But I delete and reinstall miniconda regularly and that’s solved all sorts of random bugs especially wrt jupyter

@tcb_dna A Eugene hometown star. Making us proud

[Vince Buffalo @vsbuffalo]

This is a thoughtful, enjoyable essay on why we should ditch peer review entirely by @a_m_mastroianni. Peer review is an outrageously expensive recent intervention in the scientific system. Does it help make science better? Not for the cost.

[Alina Chan @Ayjchan]

If we can't tell whether or not the pandemic began from a lab leak, maybe we should stop funding and promoting virus hunting + engineering research under lax oversight and in labs that cannot be investigated?

@pastramimachine np.random.choose(possible_grades, num_students) is pretty fast
