The CEO seems like a very cool down to earth kind of guy, I'd love to have some beers with him and chat about the future. If anyone is going to be in control of bioengineering DNA etc. this is a kid of guy to do it, I don't sense any psychopathic traits in him (unless that was his trick all along). This guy is like the opposite of Elizabeth Holmes (he knows what the fuck he's talking about, and actually has something working), I hope he gets all the funding he needs, in fact, can I invest?

They don't. Human trait is to suppose definition with little conclusive facts. Since this is so pervasive the idea of knowing anything is just perspective. Like the soy burger thing I will never understand this. Why would vegetarians want to simulate the eating of animals and what's wrong with real meat for non vegetarians? I am willing to bet by the time you harvest soy ship it to some place to have a fake patty made and get it to the table It probably has more bad ecological impact than properly managed real beef.

This was pioneered by dr j Craig ventre, years ago he created the worlds first living organism who’s parent is a computer….simply amazing. Then it all went quiet. This isn’t as new as we are lead to think. These people are not the first to do this and certainly didn’t create the technology. When dr ventre completed his task he sequenced the human genome for fun. Ethics brought it all to a grinding halt. The future versions of crisper will be much more advanced and sure enough a cure for all cancer is on the way also the implications for the environment and cleaning the sea and atmosphere are just simply mind boggling. If only we could all put as much energy in this direction instead of pointless progress hindering protests on many matters we would be in a much better place.

Making bacteria that produces ivory to destroy the elephant hunting market? Awesome,go for it Making bacteria that put nitrogen into the soil without our control and without knowing how much they will reproduce? Not so cool. Nitrogen is a pollutant that ,when it gets to rivers, kills fish because tiny plants grow so rapidly they consume all the air, you know?

A lot of big words, huge huge and boasting. But it is just showing the production line of DNA samples. He was talking about taking a DNA sequence from the PC and print it then install that code into a bacterium. That is all very well, but the whole of KZfaq doesn't show what machine is used as a gene typewriter or how such a machine works. That would be the interesting thing. I managed to assemble some evidence that they just randomly assemble DNA passages then screen them with markers and isolate the ones you want. But that again just shifts the question from how to print the DNA to how to print the delection markers. Shame that is not really explained here. They just show a normal, bog standard DNA assembly line from a given sample. How is the sample printed is what interests me, but inguess that process is kept secret. That
