@danking00 do you want to put the itemized receipt industry out of business???

@gsherloc I feel only a little responsible 😬

How to more cases than anybody in the world

@constantAmateur I think your last analysis demonstrates the underlying phenomenon well: by dropping a strict subset of genes (even just a few) you are forcing those cells to be comparatively highly weighted nearest neighbors in the KNN graph which the UMAP builds on (I’d wager)

@johnny_israeli @rapidsai @lal_avantika @cjnolet The performance look amazing; these kinds of speed-ups will have a huge impact on how we do some of our analyses...awesome stuff!

@anshulkundaje @cristenw Were you not doing this in the Before times??

[Zach @zaczap]

@Jack_Kosmicki @saralpulit @ceclindgren @allison_halff Same! I’ve just restarted a breath of the wild replay and am falling in love all over again. @konradjk texting me his progress updates made me jealous! I also really liked the switch fire emblem game if y’all are taking recs

@dom_dot_dom ...why is it a simulator and not just a digital clock

[Zach @zaczap]

@Scientist_Rhi A Nintendo Switch and Breath of the Wild! And the peace of mind to indulge and play for a few days straight ☺️

@A_A_Zaidi @CharlestonCWKC @SaharMozaffari In the last few years we’ve somewhat adopted the terms eSNP / eGene to refer to the separate components, which might lead you to assume eQTL meant both? That’s the best I’ve got

@SaharMozaffari The vote tally got me like 🤯

@AliciaBByrne @HeidiRehm @broadinstitute @CCB_Research @UniversitySA Congratulations and yay!!!

@BasheerBecerra You’d be proud of me! Lis and I ran won last week (Lisl ran the cambridgeside one too!)

[Zach @zaczap]

@nicoleateran @mikegloud @nicolergay @LaureFresard It’s beautiful

@aaronquinlan My undergrad genetics professor only used chalkboards and on rare occasion an overhead projector for laminated notes he’d then further markup (sheets had punnet square & pedigree templates); infinitely superior to slides, although more work for us
