Like a movie shot from a 1995 ripoff to JP, direct to TV, about a thirteen year old who manages to clone dinosaurs in his basement

Initial version running Minimap2, Samtools, and ViralConsensus is complete, built completely from scratch! Constructed a consensus HIV-1 genome sequence 30X-coverage paired-end reads on a Gameboy-looking handheld gaming device 😂 https://youtu.be/Mvflrp2-npA

How soon until you publish the benchmarking analysis?

niema.net•185 days ago

Gonna write up a short paper after the holidays! But probably no benchmarks (just description) since it's not super convenient to run things in bulk

davecarlson.bsky.social•185 days ago

Haha I was joking but that's still awesome!

Got ViralMSA, FastTree, and Newick-Utilities working now as well! This tree was constructed completely on the device (MSA + tree inference) 😄 I think this is a good stopping point; time to play some video games 🎮 Merry Christmas! 🎄

That's fantastic! Nice work.

You need better hobbies, my friend. I love my handhelds for long flights, but I’m definitely not going to run bioinformatic analyses on them.

niema.net•185 days ago

LOL but you *could* though 👀

Is it… is it a Tricorder

Are you … running an alignment on there ?! 🤯 Bioinformatics while playing JRPGs on the side ?!

niema.net•186 days ago

I am indeed running Minimap2 😂 This little thing is surprisingly powerful! Super great buy for just $30!

mragsac.com•186 days ago

That’s awesome! 🤩 Can you hook up a MinION to it? 👀🧬💻✨

niema.net•186 days ago

That's what I've been curious about as well! I *think* it should be possible: it's running an Ubuntu-based Linux distro, and I'm able to tether WiFi from my phone to it over USB. If you know anyone who has a MinION, I'd love to test it out 👀

mragsac.com•186 days ago

@cameronmartino.bsky.social Do you happen to have a MinION or know somebody with one for this experiment? 👀🧪

cameronmartino.bsky.social•186 days ago

Possibly! I will email you both. 😂
