Cute new idea in here: Existing ABB+ (green) minimizers prefer kmers starting with 1 and then as many 0 as possible (in the binary case). "Spacers" (orange) instead prefer kmers starting with 10 that have maximum distance to the next occurrence of 10. (For DNA, A maps to 1 and CTG map to 0.)

Announcing a new tool for "denoising" long-read amplicon sequences: savont. Savont enables amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) directly from nanopore (or HiFi) long reads. Tested on 16S nanopore amplicons -- seems to work okay. 1/4 github.com/bluenote-157...
