fenn> grow a pair 06:45 < kanzure> growing a uterus is hard 06:46 < kanzure> and afaik we can't currently do that 06:46 < Betawolf> engineering one might be harder, you have to manage all the hormone controls and the bits which assume there's a larger bloodstream to manipulate a host through 06:47 < kanzure> i believe we already have working embryo development up to some number of days (more than one day of development), so selection could continue from that point 06:47 < kanzure> but i see your point; would probably be easier to start with some non-human species too. 06:48 < Betawolf> legally, certainly 06:48 < Betawolf> also in terms of gestation length 06:49 < Betawolf> the fallback of mice would be fairly good there, and mice-human generalisability is probably well-studied 06:49
