Wow cmcalibrate is ram hungry. Running a small 5 accession covariance model ranging from 30~3k bps on 16 threads would need over a hundred gig of ram and hours of time.

I know people often ship their own cm/pressed binaries as pipeline component. Do they really run calibration on the data?

Just wrapped up the “Plant Genome Sequence Assembly and Annotation” course 🌱
Participants dove deep into: processing long-read data, building a genome sequence from scratch, checking assembly quality, and predicting genes. Thanks to everyone who joined and contributed — excited to watch your future discoveries!

Nearly two centuries after Charles Darwin formulated the theory of evolution by natural selection, resistance to evolutionary science persists among influential strands of Christian thought, particularly within creationist and Intelligent Design (ID) movements.

I love the scales of time evolutionary scientists work with: “recent” doesn’t mean the same thing depending on the organisms they are talking about. From few years to few million years.

Also the conference is in Trinity College Dublin. So I am completely out of my element…
