kanzure | hi mindspillage. | 00:36 |
---|---|---|
* mindspillage waves | 00:36 | |
kanzure | have you considered re-attaching your skull cap so as to stop the spilling | 00:36 |
mindspillage | As I'm not Jewish I'm afraid it would give people the wrong idea... | 00:37 |
mindspillage | Anyhow, metaphorical spillage doesn't create much mess. | 00:38 |
kanzure | ok ok | 00:38 |
kanzure | so, I have a legalese question for you | 00:38 |
mindspillage | Ok... | 00:38 |
kanzure | do you know anything about science patrons? | 00:38 |
mindspillage | Not called by that phrase... | 00:40 |
kanzure | what? | 00:40 |
kanzure | is there another way to say that? | 00:40 |
mindspillage | (I mean, I might think of foundations giving grants as "patrons" but I've never heard of someone referring to "science patrons".) | 00:40 |
kanzure | I mean private individuals, not foundations | 00:40 |
mindspillage | Then I think of angel investors... | 00:41 |
kanzure | oh, that might be a neat way to do it | 00:41 |
kanzure | ok, thanks. | 00:41 |
mindspillage | What do you want to know about them? | 00:41 |
kanzure | whether or not I'll be shot by lawyers for having somebody that gives me funding to do dangerous, reckless self-experimentation | 00:42 |
mindspillage | Nah, probably not. The funder's lawyer might want to shoot him. :-) | 00:44 |
kanzure | fenn: create-fp complains that I am passing it too many parameters when I pass it everything in the constructor's parameter list filled out. blah. | 00:47 |

genehacker | kanzure bet you ten bucks the myostatin one gets you some willing test subjects | 02:46 |
kanzure | make the bet more specific and you're on | 02:54 |
kanzure | i.e., what time frame | 02:54 |
kanzure | do you bet that it will happen within a day? two days? | 02:54 |
kanzure | and it can't be yourself | 02:54 |

kanzure | cis-action: you've been reading many metagenomics-related papers. | 09:14 |
kanzure | an interesting sequencing project might be to collect DNA from professors on a university campus, either through forensics or by knocking on their office door | 09:15 |
kanzure | the collection of mutations that this would reveal might prove interesting | 09:16 |

kanzure | " As an example, a child that knows the manufacturing process of every | 10:28 |

kanzure | " | 10:28 |
kanzure | Does the organization of a genome (i.e., which genes are in which location) influence viability? is there some selective advantage to pushing everything related to, say, neurons, in a stretch of the genome? | 11:18 |
kanzure | or do we not see that in genomes? | 11:19 |
kanzure | nevermind | 11:36 |
-!- nsh [n=nsh@host86-141-178-190.range86-141.btcentralplus.com] has joined #hplusroadmap | 11:43 | |
kanzure | so why haven't we seen AFM cantilever mass-based DNA sequencing? by hanging DNA from the cantilever tip, recording the force, and then selectively cleaving a single nucleotide from the strand, you should be able to detect the difference in the force of the DNA. | 11:59 |
kanzure | (there is DNA mass spec sequencing, but not by AFM) | 11:59 |
kanzure | it's common to attach DNA to beads. | 12:01 |
kanzure | hm. oh. you don't necessarily have to have it hanging the entire time. you just lower it (like string/rope) and let it rest on the ground. you need a z-axis approach mechanism that has the resolution of a few angstroms though :( | 12:05 |
cis-action | hey kanzure. | 12:11 |
cis-action | With regards to metagenomics, I've been confounded by a a cloning step that is required to purify and segregate different amplicons from the pcr mix - if I'm going to do sanger sequencing, I can't figure out how to go from pcr on a genomic pool to pure DNA samples of identical DNAs in different tubes | 12:14 |
cis-action | I think polony sequencing might get around this, but I don't know how expensive it is. | 12:15 |
kanzure | uh, what about electrophoresis to separate the strands? | 12:28 |
nsh | kanz, that seems like a painfully difficult way to sequence | 12:37 |

kanzure | nsh: sequencing tends to be painfully difficult apparently | 12:38 |
nsh | yeah, but i can't imagine many techniques less amenable to parallelisation than AFM... | 12:39 |
nsh | those things cost a lot of moneys | 12:39 |
nsh | brb, dinner | 12:40 |
kanzure | nsh: I don't think AFM costs as much as you think it does :) | 12:41 |
* nsh adds it to his amazon wishlist then | 13:01 | |
kanzure | did you see the CAD files and instructions for building one? | 13:05 |
nsh | nope. link? | 13:07 |

kanzure | ah neat: "A synthetic Escherichia coli predator-prey ecosystem" | 13:26 |

nsh | accelerated directed molecular-scale evolution in PCR | 13:30 |
kanzure | yeah | 13:35 |
kanzure | was that the recent one about ribosomes? | 13:35 |
