We (Guix) are already working towards the abstract goal of this project,
because what Guix does is effectively provenance tracking for
computations. Guix' package dependency graph i
working towards this fantastical
goal?

My understanding is that the project just started and hasn't much to
show for now. It's on my "have-a-look-ever
I'm not sure I think this is their git hub repo after a quick search,
https://github.com/underlay,... might be worth looking at 'solid' mit project,
Im not sure but I think it shares similar underlying infrastructure with linked
data structures on ipfs.

Hi Marco, agree this isn't the forum (so I apologies for adding more to
the disussion), but I sympathize with your view, I'm not a natural
scientist, about as far from it, I'm a physician, who are generally as
different from academics as physicians are from surgeons. I work as an
infectious disease
Hello—
Thank you all the useful comments. I believe that these tips can
really help me with my further career. Even as this list's purpose is
not to ask personal advice, I am happy that I did ask here. Strangly, I
could not get this insight by talking about it with collegues, friends
and family

I have no idea how numerous we are, but yes, there are. As for myself,
I am in computational biophysics.

Dear Marco,
I don't think this is the place to discuss the ins and outs of
science. The scientific community and arena can be frustrating and I
would say (i.e., as an opinion) that you should only work in science
if the subject itself grabs you. I left the software industry for
biology 15 years a
Hi all—
Are there any natural scientists here? I'm asking because at least in
my field not the right tools are used to do the work; I'd like to
exchange ideas on how to approach these issues. I am sending this to
this list because Guix is an obvious tool for scientific (and other)
computing. No
