Easy to find now on BlueSky.

@LyndaDelph Colleagues on the dead bird platform suggested Lande as well which I also had open. Seems consensus.

Thanks for the more recent paper suggestions!

The idea that antagonistic pleiotropy constrains evo between the sexes dates back to who? I've found papers referencing Darwin, Fisher, and then a bunch of refs in the 70s/80s.

Anyone in the know who can point me to a good review?

Will see everyone at Evolution next week!

Ah, yes. Another day where my data is telling me that it just does not care what theory thinks. Time to dig in and see if it's real.

After an afternoon of hyperventilating over historic DNA preps, I think I have a plan that will lead to less hyperventilating tomorrow.

@tyx I think you have the right grip on it, from what I'm understanding. The code was robust for >5 years, but now some array is segfaulting. But only on the newly compiled version I can find the line, but haven't traced through all prior depends/funcs enough to fix.

Fortunately the original compiled code released on git works just fine. I'll take that solution.

@tyx Narrowed it down to line 1863. We have source code, but somehow the versions of every dependency/gcc/whatever have changed on our cluster. In ways that I can't quite trace.

Basically it's screwed.

Hell is troubleshooting randomly occuring segfaults in other people's code.

I recognize there are limits on funding and budgets. But the statement that trainees don't get to earn more than subsistence seems callous and tone-deaf. Even more so as many of us work towards better DEI within science.

A system designed to leave trainees without monetary resources before mid-30s/40s creates huge financial risks. Even more so with a tight faculty market.

Note that this comes right on the heels of an RFI:

https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-23-084.html

"NIH provides stipends to NRSA fellows and trainees as a subsistence allowance to help defray living expenses during the research training experience. NIH does not provide stipends as a condition of employment ..."

This is the NIH officially stating that postdocs really don't deserve any better.
