@rom12relle.bsky.social @johnlees.bacpop.org & Chindelevitch present kamino, a reference- and alignment-free method that rapidly builds amino acid phylogenomic alignments directly from proteomes.

Happy to share that our paper describing kamino, a new variant-calling tool, has been accepted for publication in MBE @molbioevol.bsky.social. Big thanks to @johnlees.bacpop.org and Leonid Chindelevitch.

Oh gosh, I thought it was real until I read the leadership section. Excellent 😂

Controversial, not so controversial, take - the dangers posed by AI are real, current, and well-documented. Those do not include human extinction within a decade, nor do they include AI-manufactured-printed-out-in-the-lab bioweapons, yet, those are the ones we chose to focus on. Good lord.

I found the best book: a 1963 dictionary of Italian hand gestures

Supplemento al dizionario italiano, by Bruno Munari, a white paperback with a photo of a hand giving the classic Italian finger-purse “Che vuoi” hand gesture

I revised our kamino manuscript to introduce v2 and add more analyses: comparisons with OrthoFinder, direct phylogenetic validation using MTBC lineages and GTDB taxa, and a mammalian analysis.

Il apparaît que l'enfant, ayant reçu une carte de bibliothèque, a été "choisi". 
Il part avec les visiteurs en disant : "Ne pleure pas, mère. 
Je suis un écrivain, maintenant."
