If only genetic sequences were so finite. And what happens when researchers are developing a new protein that never existed before? Protein folding is NP-hard—even if P=NP is solved, protein folding may still be a challenge. It is likely that there will always be a need for software like this, and that the software will need periodic updates as new sequence behaviors come to light.
That said, as another comment points out, Google is merely stepping back from the AlphaFold project, which will continue without their funding or oversight.
I force all my homies to use
magic-wormhole. It can transfer files and folders with no sign-up and (as far as I can tell) no limits.For all you command-line nerds, including on Windows, it works like this:
This will ping the relay server, which defaults to Canonical on my system, as I recall, to generate a code so the two computers can locate each other.
Then on the other computer, (again including Windows,)
Note that, as both computers were on the same LAN, it transferred locally because it's awesome that way.
Working as a TA in the computer science department, this is invaluable. Students from all skill levels can transfer stuff with no extra headache, and the generated codes can be spoken aloud for simplicity.
