Did I read this correctly? "which would prohibit companies from requiring non-compete agreements for employees who make less than $15 an hour or $31,200 annually."

This is border line academic imperialism. The founders seem to think that software engineering and data science applied to biological data will provide insight that traditional bio…

>Other, more 'exact' sciences seem to not have this problem I'm not sure of this. By 'exact' disciplines I'm assuming you mean disciplines of science more dependent on mathematical…

Numerous reports over the past several years have elluded to the 'sixth' extinction. We with this paper, and others there seems to be a lot of evidence that many species are rapidl…

>Saying other scientists do not do contribute as much (or even at all) is incorrect in my opinion. I did not mean to blanket that other scientists do not contribute. And you might …

Your making very large leaps and bounds here. And misquoted a lot of what I said. "Founder of quantum mechanics" - I didn't say founder. I said one of the founding members; Planck,…

> So why not make a service for arxiv papers or any other source of resources and have experts critique them? Yeah I think this would be a great idea. If you had the capture abilit…

I agree with the reviews from credentialed users. People should put their names on the arguments for or against a paper, and let others evaluate them in return. I like pre-print se…

Forever ago. Science and Nature are in the top 10 rated impact factors for life science journals. Other than NEJM (top rated), the nature derivatives round out most of the top ten …

Illumina claims they can do $1k/genome using their latest HiSeq X Ten technology. But a miSeq or nextSeq cost more and produce less throughput. The author states ~70GB of data for …

The article touches or at least hints to ploidy level. The author talks briefly about being a carrier of a disease. But as you state, it is devoid of the 4D structure leading to th…
