I still think the more linguistic and dense nature of Perl, along with its OSS prevalence, make it a really interesting candidate as a language of choice for LLMs.
Sassy, a tool for fast approximate string matching (eg searching short DNA strings) is out now! Conceptually simple but very nice work with Rick Beeloo.

One of the most complex regions in the human genome revealed. To me, it was fascinating to combine genome assembly and pangenome graphs (PGR-TK in Fig. 3e) algorithm techniques to uncover the hidden diversity across human populations. #genomics #bioinformatics
Part 2 of my deep-dive into GPU programming with Mojo is live! I unpack sliding-window pooling, halo edges, prefix sums, & 2D indexing quirks, with sketches & code. Huge thanks to @Modular and @ehsanmok 🙌 Your puzzles & @manim viz sparked this dive. Read: shubhamg.in/posts/2025-07-…
Missed today's community meeting? Catch up with the recording to learn all about Maxim's work on Hasher-based hashing, and the winning projects from Modular Hack Weekend, built by Martin, Seth, and Thomas: youtu.be/VHhX3CkbtjQ
Q3 Mojo roadmap looking awesome! Highlights: - apple Silicon GPU Support - requires clauses - struct extensions forum.modular.com/t/mojo-q3-road…
I'm admittedly late to the AI hype train and am playing catch up. So this might be old news to everyone else: neuronpedia.org 🤯
GPUs are for more than just games and AI! Check out github.com/sstadick/mojo-… from the last @Modular hackathon for interval overlap counting on the GPU. And github.com/BioRadOpenSour… for GPU based alignments. #gpucomic

Catching up on some releases: Perbase 0.10.3: bugfix for --mate-fix when MAPQ scores are equal github.com/sstadick/perba… rust-lapper 1.2.0: fix to the BITS count algorithm for 25-30% improvement in perf github.com/sstadick/rust-…
lapper for CPU/GPU github.com/sstadick/mojo-… For the Mojo Hackathon this weekend I ported Lapper (from Brent Pendersen) to run on both CPU and GPU. Headline benchmark is the BITS algorithm from @ryanlayer coming in at around 140x faster than the CPU version. #ModularHackathon
ExtraMojo update is live! Two added datastructures with BitVec and BBHash. Updated for Mojo 25.4. extramojo.github.io/ExtraMojo/Extr… extramojo.github.io/ExtraMojo/Extr… github.com/ExtraMojo/Extr…
ish v1.2.0 released and available via conda! github.com/BioRadOpenSour… Updated to Mojo 25.4
Mojo 24.5 is out with all the python binding goodness! docs.modular.com/max/changelog/ And a webcomic? I hope all releases come with a webcomic. comic.modular.com @Modular #gpucomic
I'm pleased to share an alpha version of GRanges, a Rust library for working with genomic ranges and their associated data. I wondered if it was possible to write a library that: 1. Has tidyverse-like syntax for genomic data manipulation. 2. Is extremely performant. It is.🚀
For folks processing SAM/BAM files in Rust, this is a huge day :). The unification of SAM/BAM reading has been implemented in the excellent noodles library (github.com/zaeleus/noodle…), addressing one of the last remaining usability pain points of this excellent lib! cc @vsbuffalo
