New CRISPR-based map ties every human gene to its function
> Where are the polished, powerful design tools for biology
User interfaces for biology have drastically improved over the last 10 years.
Domain-specific tools like genome browsers, protein viewers, or phylogenetic explorers [1-3] almost all look and feel a lot better than they did in 2012.
The biggest exception here is UCSC Genome Browser, which has an old-school design and web technology stack. That said, it's steadily added features over the years, has substantially sleekened UX in its periphery, and remains widely used.
There are also bespoke visual design resources for biology applications that are good and getting better, like BioRender and PhyloPic [4-5]. There are multi-tiered packages like Dash Bio that wrap biology components together. There's Blender biology community, too!

Why IndexedDB is slow and what to use instead
I'm more interested in read speeds than write speeds. I have about 2 MB of data that I fetch, then parsed and transformed into a heavily nested object for easy look-up by various types of keys.
In my brief experiment, it was 12% faster to read from the web Cache API, re-parse and re-transform that heavily nested object than to read the fully transformed object via IndexedDB. That surprised me! My understanding is that IndexedDB does a structured clone as part of the read, which I suspect is the main cause of slowness of IndexedDB relative to the Cache API approach in my use case.
Related commits to reproduce that finding are in [1], specifically [2].

Ask HN: What are some tools / libraries you built yourself?
I created Ideogram.js, a JavaScript library for chromosome visualization [1]. Ideogram supports drawing and animating genome-wide datasets, enabling a variety of genomic views [3].
