I added more details about how the decoding works here: https://sandbox.bio/concepts/bwt#intuition-decoding , I'd love to hear if that is more clear now

Author here, nice to see the article posted here! I'm currently looking for ideas for other interactive articles, so let me know if think of other interesting/weird algorithms that are hard to wrap your head around.

Good point, thanks! I'll add a subsection about the intuition for that.

This is a podcast we recorded about the promise and perils of AI in biology, where we dive into a case where AI was used to predict enzyme function and gave results that looked really promising, but were not quite right.

Good morning HN! This tool lets you play with awk, grep, sed, and jq commands right in your browser. Start from the examples and explore from there!

To get these tools running in the browser, I compiled them to WebAssembly (see https://github.com/biowasm/biowasm for details). That way, the commands you type run instantaneously, and it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg to host servers that execute arbitrary commands from users :)
