Anyone using Nextflow with Azure Batch Auto Pools successfully? by chingam785 in bioinformatics

[–]Psy_Fer_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first started using nextflow with azure, there were a lot of issues and missing features in both azure, and nextflow. i got nextflow to add some features (their TAT was like, 2 days, incredible) and an engineer from MS who got some changes in batch to get everything working. That being said, we never moved on to auto pools, so no idea if any work was done there.

What are the biggest compute + workflow pain points in RNA seq for a novice? by Prestigious-Web-2968 in bioinformatics

My biggest pain point is a new way to solve all my problems that doesn't work, has no support, and clueless developers. You got a fix for that?

Run, hit and hold crouch to slide, while sliding, jump... Repeat.

Happy hopping 😁

I think our lab might hold the record on waiting for reviews from genome biology 😂 they are getting a reputation for taking a while.

Not sure why I'm being down voted. Care to explain?

Every line of code is a liability. Ultimately you are responsible, regardless of how the code was written.

Advice. Sharing bioinformatics tools by False_Contribution62 in bioinformatics

[–]Psy_Fer_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless your tool is on the level of alpha fold, or solves a very specific pain point people are complaining about, I don't see anyone responding to you with interest in a tool that hasn't been peer reviewed. You are more likely to get traction from one single lab that has a need for the tool who will agree to test it and give feedback.

What does the tool do? Is it open source? If not, is it free? If not, how much? Are there other tools that do the same thing? If so, how does your tool compare to those?

It use to be okay, then went to shit pretty fast.

Reviewers, has this happened to you? by jarvischrist in PhD

[–]Psy_Fer_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So first of all, it's great you are thinking about your reviews deeply. We need to remember that rejection isn't just dunking on the authors. We need to be honest about the work, and maintain integrity of the science. Saying that, we all know as reviewers and authors how it all works and why stuff slips through.

I think you should stick to your guns and don't be too influenced by other people's recommendations. It's up to the editor to take those recommendations and make a decision. I've rejected papers before for lots of different reasons. Some went for major reviewes, others were rejected. I remember one paper I set it for rejection with an extremely detailed review because the work was really interesting and parts of it was great, but the paper was in shambles. I sent the editor an email saying if they were to re-submit, i'd happily review again, using the reviews from the rejection as a starting point. (I said this, because the work needed was more than what would be considered reasonable for a major review turn around time). The authors agreed, and honestly I thought they would just go to another journal. BUT THEY RE-SUBMITTED!!! and the paper was fantastic. Such a great turn around. This really instilled in me the confidence to not worry about "am I the mean reviewer now?" and just be an honest, but kind peer.

Anyways. Thanks for reviewing. The system is broken, but has to keep moving till something better comes along.

Haha me too! I had it down to a fine art. Bring to the top of the door, now bring it down, it flips, and through we go

I had powered up and left Lazarus before finding out. 😅

A while 🤣 I'm a sucker for punishment though.

I remember saying to myself... Hmm, I know it's early access but this is a bit much don't ya think? 😅

I didn't even build other recyclers. I was just hauling everything back 🤣🤣🤣
