  • A single dna molecule is too small to see with the naked eye, but a few million dna molecules released from a few million microbes is easy to see IRL. In my bio lab days we did an experiment to isolate the dna molecules from a scoop of microbes, and at the end you wind up with a clump of dna molecules that together are about the size of an eraser head.

    And yeah as the other person said, the term “staining” is the official term used for what you’re calling “tagging”




  • I think this graph doesn’t have to move left to right, it can also move right to left. On several occasions quantum computing started to move up the “tech trigger” slope, but without any functional applications for the current technology the point slid back down to the left again.

    I think the graph needs at least one more demarcated region. After “tech trigger” there needs to be “real world applications”. Without real world applications you can never progress past the tech trigger phase.

    In chemistry this is the equivalent of Energy of Activation. If a reaction can’t get over the big first step, then it can’t proceed on to any secondary steps














    1. Marketing promises ARE a contract. Companies aren’t allowed to advertise a thing and then not do that thing. That’s false advertising and fraud. Companies aren’t allowed to say they offer a product or service for price X and then actually charge price Y. This is well established law.

    2. You either didn’t read or didn’t understand the article. Multiple times in multiple ways the company said it’s offering a lifetime price, which is different than a price offered only for a limited term. They very explicitly said “T-Mobile will never change the price you pay” and “T-Mobile One customers keep their price until THEY decide to change it. T-Mobile will never change the price you pay” etc. etc.
