I'm glad to see #ModelHardwareStandard #MHS in research preview and humbled to have played a small role getting it out of the door at @hhmijanelia.bsky.social @hhmi-science.bsky.social .

Today, we're kicking off the first phase of the research preview for Model Hardware Standard (MHS): a new standard for AI agents to safely operate physical equipment in scientific research and advanced manufacturing. (1/2)

@kevinbonham.com, Rasmus Henningsson, Elisabeth Rösch, and Jakob Nybo Andersen are running a minisymposium on "Julia for Biology" at JuliaCon 2026! Find out more at pretalx.com/juliacon-202... and submit your talk to juliacon.org/2026/cfp #julialang #biology
Computing has a rich history in biological discovery, and the needs of biologists are continuing to drive algorithm development in multiple domains. Close alignment between developers and deep biological domain expertise is crucial in this field and a programming language such as Julia provides an ideal platform for such tight collaborations that require a range of access points to the software. Julia provides interactive and notebook-based interfaces commonly used by experimentalists whilst also giving algorithm developers the opportunity create more complex workflows and structures, and optimize performance as needed.

In this minisymposium, we aim to highlight ways in which computational biologists* are using Julia to advance our understanding of living systems, in academia and industry, while also contributing to the package ecosystem and core language on multiple fronts.

"Computational biology" is a broad tent. Topics presented include algorithms for text matching and search (bioinformatics), modeling and machine learning (systems biology and quantiative pharmacology),statistics and data science (experimental analysis, epidemiology), and imaging and geospatial statistics (microscopy), among others.

While Yuri Vishnevsky does have valid critiques about #JuliaLang, just citing the one blog is really lazy. My take is that I have easiest time fixing bugs in the Julia package ecosystem than any other ecosystem, both temporarily and permanently, from the core to 3rd party packages.

I saw a group was trying to visit all the stops on the DC Metro and saw they were going to end their adventure in Ashburn, not far from me. I ended up taking their picture and getting a photo credit in the @washingtonpost.com . wapo.st/3ZmVmRn

Friends raced to hit every Metro station in one day. Would they make it?
Trains have always attracted competitive riders. But Metro speedrunning has taken off recently as the system increased its reliability and social media savvy.

Julia has joined Python and R as a native kernel in Google Colab for a complete JuPyteR experience! Now you can use Julia with a free T4 GPU and leverage packages like Reactant without complex setup. Details: github.com/googlecolab/... #JuliaLang #Colab #DataScience
Screenshot of Google Colab's 'Change runtime type' dialog box showing runtime options. The dropdown menu displays language options including Julia, Python, and R. Hardware accelerator options show T4 GPU, A100 GPU, L4 GPU, and v5e-1 TPU. A message at the bottom offers access to premium GPUs
