Messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), a type of RNA molecule that can be found in various cells. In general, the structure of mRNA is often composed of a 5' cap, two untranslated regions (5' UTR and 3' UTR), a coding domain, a 3' poly(A) tail. mRNA can be produced during the process of transcription in the nucleus. Normally, primary transcript mRNA (pre-mRNA) will be created at the early stage of transcription. This pre-mRNA will be further processed into mature mRNA by RNA splicing and removing introns. Mature mRNA can be further transported into the cytoplasm to participate in protein synthesis. Moreover, two main types of RNA molecules, transfer RNA (tRNA) and ribosomal RNA (rRNA), have also been identified that play a critical role in translating codons into amino acids in the protein-manufacturing process.https://mrna.creative-biolabs.com/applications-of-mrna-as-research-tools.htm
Antibodies are immunoglobulins produced by B lymphocytes during their differentiation into plasma cells that bind specifically to the corresponding antigen. Antibodies can be divided into five major classes (IgG, IgA, IgM, IgD, IgE), which have a protective effect on the organism. Antibody mRNAs don't require nuclear localisation to mediate protein translation, but can be translated directly into target proteins or immunogenic activation of the immune response in vivo by using genetic sequence of the virus.https://mrna.creative-biolabs.com/category-antibody-mrna-479.htm
Cytokines are low molecular weight soluble proteins produced by cells stimulated by immunogens, mitogens or other factors, including interleukins, interferons (IFN), lymphokines, colony-stimulating factors (CSF), chemokines, monoclonal factors and other factors. https://mrna.creative-biolabs.com/category-cytokine-mrna-455.htm
In vitro transcription (IVT) is an elegant way to obtain highly pure and uniform mRNA oligonucleotides of lengths ranging from about 15 to several thousand nucleotides. It is transcribed from a double-stranded DNA template by RNA polymerase (T7, T3 or SP6 RNA polymerase).https://mrna.creative-biolabs.com/category-in-vitro-transcription-vector-452.htm
Modified mRNAs can readily be obtained from any DNA template using RNA polymerases in a short time. However, mRNA prepared with enzymatic synthesis may present transcriptional errors, which can only be produced at a laboratory scale, and products may not pure enough for the intended use. An efficient scalable non-enzymatic (chemical) method for mRNA production could solve these problems. https://mrna.creative-biolabs.com/custom-chemical-synthesis-of-mrna.htm
Chemical synthesis of single-stranded mRNA molecules is a widely used laboratory procedure that is an alternative strategy of mRNA synthesis for RNA research as well as RNA biopharmaceuticals. This technique is versatile and allows the researcher to tailor the synthesis of short fragments of mRNA and introduce modifications to mRNA.https://mrna.creative-biolabs.com/custom-chemical-synthesis-of-mrna.htm

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
In our second session, we shall learn all about the main features and fundamentals of UiPath Studio that enable us to use the building blocks for any automation project.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMsSease
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
