I want to sequence, but I absolutely do not want any company or government or church to have access to my data. When the author says:

> "I have a VCF, I can run it through tools like VEP, ClinVar, gnomAD, PharmGKB (highly recommend), Gene Inspector, or Claude"

I am assuming my data is now within the hands of some of the very entities I do not want to have access to my data ... true?

I don't know anything about her music, but she seems pretty cool on the literary front.

I'd love to see one on the toy car where you rub the wheels across a surface several times in a row to get the engine going faster and faster, then on the last rub, you let it go and it zips away.

I am all in favor of going outside ... just don't bring a stink into the workplace.

I have NEVER worked at a place that offered showers. Plus, along with the extra commute time of walking or cycling, a shower adds another ≈ 20 minutes that I am not doing what I prefer ... which is not working.

If you mean showers, then you can forget it. I have NEVER worked at a place that offered showers. Plus, along with the extra commute time of walking or cycling, a shower adds another ≈ 20 minutes that I am not doing what I prefer ... which is not working.

Why should the onus be on me when they are the disgusting ones and the employers are at fault for not offering showers?

I have been using the same µSD card since 2016 with no issues.

Watch ... it'll fail on me later today. :-D

Ever since Apple, Microsoft, Google, etc. started offering "free" online storage for photos, ever since streaming started to be popular, I have ALWAYS extolled the virtues of µSD card slots in phones and owning your own media (i.e., purchasing CDs and DVDs). Many people would give me a hard time about this, calling me a Luddite, but I will never lose access to my photos, music, or movies ... unless it is the end of the world as we know it, which I happily have on R.E.M.'s Eponymous album.

Every one of the items on the list can STILL be done in meat-space.

I, for one, do not wish to smell my malodorous coworkers - who have walked or cycled to work and are all sweaty - all day. I already have one of them and it makes me want to vomit.

> "If these kinds of breaches were actually costly, then people would indeed treat PII as toxic."

But they are costly ... just not to big business or government. They couldn't give two flips about our misery.

If this doesn't make you think of Star Trek, I don't know what does.

I can imagine the amateur archeologist, Picard himself, asking La Forge to read this fragile piece of history, and Geordi coming up with something just like this.

Yes, I still have hope for humanity, and a future like Star Trek.

Man, I miss pre-OSX Macintosh operating systems. They just had more personality than most modern operating systems.

I love Raymond Chen's stuff; particularly the way he brings humanity to our everyday tech.

Misleading title. The relevant sentence is this:

> "The prosecution claimed Sanchez moved the zines so they wouldn’t incriminate his wife, who attended a protest outside the Prairieland immigration detention center near Dallas, where a police officer was wounded by gunfire."

The "Texas man" in question was involved in evidence tampering in a case that involved the shooting of a police officer. The title here makes it sound like simply moving paper around is against the law.
