Scrambled cities: If you're not gonna do the work(on your soul), then you might as well work til you die

 There are two tiers in normal life. Those who are survive and those who thrive.  But nothing is a mistake in life: Nothing comes by chance. You have to prepare for it.  If you thought life was about making money and beating out the Jones's, you've lost already.  Life is: Desire for connection. All unhealthy competition is isolating. We live in an isolated-enough world already. This connection comes from a surprising place: Self-acceptance. A lot of us need to go back to the classroom. A lot of us need to take a silent breather and check in with what we need. This takes serious work. It's the real work. It relies on respect for others and self-respect.  A lot of people in the self-help community try to push the self aside: Manning up is the only side of it they see. But there are certain non-negotiables in this life. Certain things we can't cheat ourselves out of. We are not a piece of meat being acted on.    However, this is where God comes in. Some o...

What makes Bionano's approach to genomics different?






Bionano’s Saphyr system uses a scanning electron microscope to detect structural variations in DNA at a resolution of 6 nm. This structural information is used to produce a high-resolution, genome-wide map of structural variation. The differences in the physical structure of the DNA can then be used to identify and isolate disease-causing genetic variants.

The Bionano genome mapping approach is different from other genomics approaches in a few ways. First, traditional genomics methods sequence the entire genome and then look for variants. This can be a time-consuming process, and can miss structural variants that are not present in the sequencing data. Bionano’s approach does not require sequencing and can detect structural variants that are not found in the sequence data.

Second, the Bionano approach uses information on the physical structure of the DNA to identify variants. This approach is more accurate than other methods and can identify variants that are not found by other methods.

Third, the Bionano approach is faster and less expensive than other methods. Sequencing the entire genome can be expensive and time-consuming. The Bionano approach does not require sequencing and is faster and less expensive.

Fourth, the Bionano approach can be used to detect structural variants in any species. Other methods can only detect variants in a few species. The Bionano approach can be used to detect variants in any species.



Bionano's approach to genomics is based on its Saphyr system, which uses a laser to create maps of single molecules of DNA. This approach is different from other methods because it is extremely precise and can map long pieces of DNA.
