This Day in Labor History: January 4, 1977. California congressman Augustus Hawkins introduces what became the Humphrey-Hawkins Act, which initially was a government employment guarantee. Let's talk about why we need this today!
As late as the mid-1970s, liberals believed another era of left-leaning government was around the corner. When Ted Kennedy fought to kill Richard Nixon’s milquetoast national health care plan, it was under the assumption that something much better would come soon.
While the recession and oil shocks that began in 1973 put a damper on this, liberals did not believe the fundamental equation of American politics had changed. They had a lot more they wanted to do. One goal was to move toward full employment.

If I could have every Twitter follower read one book, it would be Charles Cobb's This Nonviolent Stuff'll Get You Killed. There is so much mythology about nonviolence that feeds into white liberal ideas about change.

amazon.com/This-Nonviolen…
Cobb gets into how guns were central to the whole civil rights movement, as armed self-defense was necessary for survival. Ideas of non-violence were in fact backed with the potential for lethal force. This truth challenges easy notions of what activism should look like.
The nonviolent-industrial complex has taken over so much of the air on proper paths of activism. And while I certainly have no problem with nonviolent activism, there are many paths and that must remain so.

Bon vue que c'est bientôt la fin de semaine, on reprend le thread sur mon sujet !!! #thèsolie
#thread #bioinformatique #assemblage
Je vous avez laissé avec quelque notions important, que je vais rappelé rapidement :

- Le séquençage c'est ce qui permet de lire la séquence ADN, mais on ne peut lire que des petits morceaux et on sais pas ou on lis du coup on est un peut embêté pour comprendre ce qu'on a lue
- L'assemblage c'est l'étape algorithmique qui vas permettre de reconstruire la séquence d'ADN d'origine a partir des morceaux qu'on a lue. On fais sa parce que les morceaux partage des séquences communes, sa s'appel des overlaps. Pour sa on utilise un graph d'assemblage

Bon aller je ne me suis pas encore présenté sur #thésolie et je crois bien être une des dernières a ne pas l'avoir fait donc c'est partie. Je suis une thèse en bioinformatique, non la bioinformatique c'est pas faire de l'informatique avec de la biologie c'est l'inverse !
On peut résumer sa: a l'ensemble des outils mathématiques, statistiques et informatiques pour la biologie. Vous pouvez lire cette page bioinfo-fr.net/aux-origines-d… ou celle-ci fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bio-infor… pour plus d'information !
C'est un domaine très large mais je vais parler que du miens l'assemblage des génomes. Et non désoler c'est pas mélanger des bouts de génome comme dans jurasic park . #gifAvecLiensTénu

#Today's story to #EndFamilySeparation Four months ago, Dad and 4-month-old entered at the Texas/Mexico border and requested #asylum. Dad and child were immediately separated and the baby put in ORR custody. #FamiliesBelongTogether
Dad was detained in a #Texas detention center where @RAICESTEXAS consulted. Dad accepted a deportation to be quickly reunited w/ his infant child. However, the Dad was deported & NOT his child. The now 8-month-old baby has been in ORR custody for 4 months. #EndFamilySeparation
The Mom and Dad now have once weekly Skype calls with their 8-month-old baby. That's right, folks. They Skype with an infant. #EndFamilySeparation #FamiliesBelongTogether

Today's ride up from Porty to The Meadows to join @POPScotland served well to remind me of some of the issues en-route; so some helpful feedback for @Edinburgh_CC @edinhelp cc @adamrmcvey @lmacinnessnp @MaureenChild1 @KateC_SNP @MaryGreens @CLaidlaw /1
From Porty Prom there's no great choice to get to the Innocent Path. Heading for the Hope Lane bridge over the railway is the best route; but that leaves you having to dog-leg over Porty High St, from Bellfield St to St Marks Pl. These streets would really benefit from /2
dedicated cycle lanes (among the few in Porty wide enough), with the crossing on Porty High St moved closer and with segregated path between the two.
After you snake up the zig-zag for the bridge you have a narrow chicane to contend with - a real challenge with a trailer! /3

Cool, j'ai un exposé à faire sur un article de Virginie Julliard : #ThéorieDuGenre : comment débat-on du genre sur Twitter ?
Fun car ce sont mes binômes qui ont choisi le sujet et que ça tombe direct dans mes intérêts. Je vais faire un LT, ça me servira de notes !
Hypothèse du papier : Twitter produit un débat spécifique, en raison de ses propriétés & de la manière dont les utilisateurs s'en saisissent
