I'm scraping the job boards of employers since I'm in between positions. I have issues with boards like LinkedIn and have been making something better. Right now I'm scraping most USA R1 universities and a few select private companies. I'm writing my own scripts with 'nodriver'.

New toy: a 16gb #RPI 5 with an M.2 hat. I'm waiting for a 2 hour (and growing!) web scraping job every morning and this little fella will do it for me before I wake up.

Engineering of CRISPR-Cas PAM recognition using deep learning of vast evolutionary data CRISPR-Cas enzymes must recognize a protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM) to edit a genomic site, significantly limiting the range of targetable sequences in a genome. Machine learning-based protein engine...

Cool preprint from @thisismadani.bsky.social and team at Profluent on AI-optimized CAS proteins. I could see insights from this being used for many more protein-nucleic acid protein engineering projects. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Fantastic resource. Made great use of their assets durring my defense
