  • Chimera: An Open Source RNA Pipeline for Long Covid Research
    Mar 22, 2026
    Back in October, I found out about a new initiative in Europe called Amatica Health. Instead of regular blood tests for long covid, which I have tons and tons of, they were offering a RNA sequencing covering over 20,000 genes that was hopefully going to shed some light on the entire disease and maybe lead to a cure. I paid the $1000 (or whatever it was at the time), and submitted my sample. In the time between then and when I received my results, I shared a few emails and X messages with some of the founders. Some of the things I was curious about was just how much juice we can squeeze from ...

  • My First Week Making Hot Dogs With Claude Code Max 20
    Mar 9, 2026
    I was a bit late to the Claude Code party, and started about six months after most of my friends. I openly admit I was pretty hesitant that AI had any shot at taking over coding, but it's slowly won me over in the last few months. Like most people, I used it at first a bit tepidly, not entirely sure of it's strengths or its weaknesses. Slowly over the first few weeks I started being able to produce decent code consistently, so I thought I should experiment with it a bit more. I started on the $20/mo plan just to get my feet wet. That's great for small code changes but you quickly run into limits. ...
