Another two months have gone by without any new blog posts; I've just been occupied with various other tasks:
I don't how people juggle between writing grants, reviewing grants, writing papers, and doing actual sciency stuff #struggling

However, I have been using my GitHub account more often.
I have recreated one of my most popular pages on my website: my SAMtools page is now replicated in my learning_bam_file repository.
I have created a similar repository for learning about VCF files called learning_vcf_file.
I have been learning about Docker and created a repository appropriately called learning_docker.
I decided to delve more into the Random Forest algorithm and created a repository called learning_random_forest.
That's what I have been up to and hopefully I will write a proper blog post soonish.

GitHub is a great complement to blogging. Lots to learn from colleagues, look up starred repos, and all practical. Interesting repos from you already there, happy githubbing!
I had intended to migrate my entire blog to a GitHub page but never got around to it (and I probably won’t).
I see that you’re quite active on GitHub and you have some useful repos. Thanks for sharing.
GitHub pages are actually very nice. That’s what got me started, https://github.com/kbroman/simple_site. The whole system of GH pages and Jekyll has been designed for blogging, so you may eventually like it.
