A Question of Content

I have a lot of additional data that isn’t going to go in the book, and tends to be much more on the technical side. For example, this is the latest thing I’ve been running down, not because it’s necessary to any of the points I’m making, but because I’m interested in the tangential element that appeared in one of the necessary investigations.

  • Show the sex composition of Neolithic vs Modern samples (if very different, Y-chromosome artifacts are confirmed)
  • Check each outlier SNP individually with sex breakdowns
  • Flag if females have Y-chromosome data (impossible, means data quality issue)

I don’t really want to start yet another site devoted to this stuff, but I don’t want to bore everyone here to tears either. So, would a daily post on the science marginalia be of interest here, or should I try to find a different solution until I inevitably get bored of this sort of thing?

I very much appreciate the strong support that has been shown by everyone here in making Probability Zero a multi-category bestseller. But I also know that it’s not necessarily the content for which most people come here.
