Excellent. Spent an hour today doing something that would have taken 10 minutes on @veupathdb . Let’s hope a model for sustainable, long-term support of this amazing resource can be established.
Welcome back! VEuPathDB resources are back online today! We will continue to provide bioinformatics services under a new organizational structure. Read more here: veupathdb.org/veupathdb/app/…

Dear @Zoom - if you already know I am the host of prescheduled Zoom call, and there is a required security patch before I can join the call, why can't you tell me before hand ?!

It appears #NIAID will shutter the genome data base we all use daily. This strikes me as a significant mistake that may well endanger much of our global progress. @BSPparasitology @AS_Para @ASTMH @TrendsParasitol @AmSocParasit @parasitesrule @PiParasitology

Dear @Walmart I ordered 20 items today for delivery that came in 20 plastic bags. Including a pack of gum that had its own bag.

Surely you do better than this?
