Preprint on "BWT construction and search at the terabase scale". We can compress 100 human genomes to 11GB in 21 hours, find SMEMs with it, do affine-gap alignment and retrieve similar local haplotypes. 7.3Tb commonly sequenced bacterial genomes ⇒ 30GB arxiv.org/abs/2409.00613

So much for reproducibility of scientific results in top notch journals like Nature...
I went to look at the code. To their credit they posted code used in the paper. It's undocumented, with no guide or README to explain what was used where. Given the volume of data and analysis in this paper its hopeless to try to navigate it. 8/ github.com/cboix/admultir…

Challenge accepted. Here are a few comments on the paper after starting to wade through its massive content. The paper in question is nature.com/articles/s4158… 1/🧵
Critiquing a paper for the number of figures, ext figures & support figures is really weird. Just read the paper & point out any actual issues you find. Anyone can peer review a paper or preprint post "publication".

@christophploss Sie wissen genau, dass von den 4 Mio. Hartz-IV-Beziehenden über 800 T durchaus erwerbstätig sind,
440 T in Ausbildung, 530 T in Maßnahmen und 280 T kleine Kinder haben oder Angehörige pflegen. Tut mir leid, es so sagen zu müssen, Herr @christophploss: aber Sie sind ein Hetzer.

This is one of the funniest books I've ever read.

Instead of cliché affirmations about happiness, it's filled with witty, sarcastic affirmations.

Here are my 10 favorite quotes from the book:

Statt „performativer“ Aufregung benötigt es:
a) Zivilcourage, solche Sprüche müssen Gegenrede im Freundeskreis erfahren.
b) Ächtung durch öffentlichen Druck.
c) Strafrechtliche Konsequenzen, wenn Gesetzesverstöße vorliegen.
d) Aufklärung über Strategien der neuen Rechten.

„Man kann als Europaabgeordneter trotz BahnCard 100 Reisekosten erstatten. Jetzt habe ich noch eine Geschichte gehört, dass CDU-Abgeordnete sich regelmäßig ihre Urlaubsreisen auf Steuerzahlerkosten erstatten lassen.“

Wie das geht zeigt @NICOSEMSROTT hier an einem unglaublichen Beispiel:
