Matthew Andres Moreno discusses dose-knockout-based methods for estimating the complexity of "cryptic" genetic sequences for which straightforward individual knockouts would not work
#ALIFE2024 @ALifeConf
looking forward to sharing about evolutionary analyses comparing properties of different tag matching criteria for in exact referencing in GP (hamming, integer-based, bio-inspired, & more) at #gecco2023 HOTP
Biomolecules’ structures have an intuitive relationship to their specific Physical Thing They Do… like the photopsin light receptors likely streaming this tweet to your brain…
((thread on investigation of evolutionary properties of in silico tag matching mechanisms))
also put a short little 8 min video summary for gecco HOTP youtu.be/WwftoxuF3jU
Enjoyed working on this with @amlalejini and @charlesofria
Looking forward to more, especially testing how tag matching systems fare as numbers of tagged elements grow very large
Had an excellent (and very constructive) experience with the review process for publishing software with JOSS! Would highly recommend to others with research software contributions.
Just published in JOSS: 'hstrat: a Python Package for phylogenetic inference on distributed digital evolution populations' doi.org/10.21105/joss.04866

Congratulations to DR. Matthew Moreno (@MorenoMatthewA)! Wonderful defense. My head is still spinning from all of the scientific directions your work has opened up; I'm excited to see your next studies on major evolution transitions.

it's been forever, but new blog post!!!
this one on mischief with __builtin_unreachable() default switch cases
perfect for the extra percent of unsafe bytecode interpreter fun 🍹🏖️💣

10wk WAVES software workshop wraps up today🥂😭
at farewell send-off everyone shared a gif/meme summary of their summer
our wholesome annotated trove of gems👇

PS for those running virtual classrooms&groups, this social format worked surprisingly well
new blog post covering
* 🧑🏫how & why I use class blogs as a teaching tool
* practical tips for effective professional Jekyll blog posts 🛠️
* oh & slipped in the middle some assignment criteria 4 my students😈
so hopefully, something there for everyone?

after initial shock seeing a senior MSU VP
- appear alongside a noted white supremacist
- dismiss systemic racism as an “unscientific hypothesis”
- insinuate genetic differences in intelligence between racial groups
... I was left with the question, “So what?”

progress on diversity & inclusion @michiganstateu will require better than just pro forma statements
progress will require proactive effort

finally, with respect to the nature of the harm caused by Hsu’s leadership role @michiganstateu, I would like to end by asserting
the dispersed & generalized nature of harm does not make that harm any less real

Some of the stories coming out of this #FireStephenHsu call are horrifying. I'm grateful to everyone who's shared. This runs so deep in MSU's culture.
If you have a story, big or small, about your direct experiences with Hsu's misconduct and mishandling, please get in touch.
