Episode description
In this episode, I continue to talk (but mostly listen) to Sergey Koren and Sergey Nurk. If you missed the previous episode, you should probably start there. Otherwise, join us to learn about HiFi reads, the tradeoff between read length and quality, and what tricks HiCanu employs to resolve highly similar repeats.
