    Sorry for the confusion. Though, it is a mango tree in a mango garden! The continued development and maintenance of plotnine is supported by Posit, PBC, the same company behind the…

    If you already use plotnine, or if this has piqued your interest, the next release (v0.16.0) will bring nice capabilities. You can get a sneak peek by installing the pre-release: p…

    Plotnine uses other packages in the scientific Python ecosystem. That is probably where the abbreviations that irk you come from. In some cases those "abbreviations" have roots 20 …

    May be strange at a first glance but binary/boolean logic/reasoning/quantification is just a special case of probability theory. This is covered exhaustively in Probability Theory:…

    Given that Chroloquine has been around for a long time and that it is well studied, is there any merit to assume that using it was not a random idea and that it works against some …

    It seems unethical if you do it by gene drive. But what if you add some natural randomness to the process and other desirable objectives. Imagine a dating service with a DNA databa…
