On the server side

sudo apt-get install ssh

sudo apt-get install openssh-server

sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start

sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Uncomment port 22
Uncomment HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
Uncomment AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys .ssh/authorized_keys2
Set pubkey authentication to "yes"

sudo systemctl restart sshd.service # or sudo /etc/init.d/ssh reload

On the client side:
in ~/.ssh

ssh-keygen -t rsa # set passphrase or not
ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa user@100.100.10.100

--> write "yes" then password in

ssh user@100.100.10.100

--> write password --> you should be in

--> in /home/user/.ssh/config type:
Host WhateverName
HostName 100.100.10.100
User username
ForwardX11 yes
ForwardAgent yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa

--> you should now be able to connect with :

ssh WhateverName

I thought that load average 1.0 on my two core machine means that the CPU usage is at 50%. That's not quite right. And also, why does it say 1.0?

I decided to look everything up and document it here.

About 8,000 years ago, the gene EGLN1 changed by a single DNA base pair. Today, a relatively short time later on the scale of human history, 88 percent of Tibetans have the genetic variation, and it was virtually absent from closely related lowland Asians. The findings indicate the genetic variation endows its carriers with an advantage.

In those without the adaptation, low oxygen caused their blood to become thick with oxygen-carrying red blood cells, an attempt to feed starved tissues, which could cause long-term complications such as heart failure. The researchers found that the newly identified genetic variation protected Tibetans by decreasing the over-response to low oxygen.

1.Stupid for biologist: Biology is so complex that it will make bioinformatician feel stupid. There are no any universal fixed rules; it can surprise you any time. So be nice to biologists who ask questions and resolve your biological puzzles. Sometime you will have no idea what the hell you were doing either.

2.Puzzling why: Do not hesitate to ask question. Especially. at the beginning of project you will have to ask a lot of questions. Instead of puzzling it out at end check out and clear your doubt even for a single error. It may can leads to wrong conclusion.

3.Running marathon: The most of the biological software’s documentation is always incomplete. In other word they are no more than 95 percent complete. Sometime a single problem can halt your entire project for months. Compilation and running the pipelines in tedious because almost all are interdependent and need proper configuration. I face the same kind of problem with Evolver :( …

4.Folders missing: The pipelines generate lots of data, and we keep them in several folders for future use. But sometime we delete them by mistake and move to recovery…

5.Digging deeper: Digging deeper is fruitful, but some time it can be catastrophic. You may get frustrated or direction less. So keep a biologist with you for rescue …. Sometime an expert computer programmer to handle your server. Remember, the server will always go down when you need it the most.

The most common frustrating  common line: Why do we do this again?
