21:59 < kanzure> crowd-based negotiation on DNA synthesis prices 22:00 < ybit> an idea kanzure came up with 22:01 < ybit> i'd be curious to know how many of the emails are from people introducing new projects 22:01 < Tyrant> kanzure, so you're idea still doesnt make sense to you? :P 22:01 < kanzure> Tyrant: yep 22:01 < kanzure> to be honest, i'd rather just try my hand at better dna synthesis techniques to get the price lower 22:01 < kanzure> all this synthetic biology wankery has been focusing on next-generation dna sequencing 22:02 < kanzure> but writing is still expensive unless you're willing to ligate and use libraries like crazy 22:02 < Tyrant> meh it'll run its course 22:02 < kanzure> not really.. if you look it up, nobody has next-generation dna synthesis techniques 22:02 < Tyrant> has done or working on?
