From the smallest single-celled organism to the largest creatures on Earth, every living thing is defined by its genes. With recent advancements, scientists can change an organisms fundamental features in record time using gene editing tools such as CRISPR. But where did this medical marvel come from and how does it work? Andrea M. Henle examines the science behind this new technology. Lesson by Andrea M. Henle, directed by Adam Wells

Fastest and cheapest. And this is the clue. Its almost the most complicated thing on the planet. Its about known build material of every single organism. Every organism is a. bit more complicated than a computer. But she saying this in a computer area shaped her thoughs by computer binary era and talks in this maneur. But this shouldnt to be cheap and fast.

Amazing, we have quantum computers today as well in its infancy. Now we only need faster ways of traversal because even the speed of light is still slow when compared to the size of the universe. (Not that we're capable of near light speed since it needs near infinite energy)

So CRISPR in the bacterium adds new DNA to the genome, copied from the virus but cuts and removes DNA from future viruses. Two proteins, one adding, one removing. But scientists in the lab use these two different processes to just one genome.

I had to watch this twice because I was completely transfixed on how absolutely amazing the animation is and didn't hear a single word of the actual lesson.
I demand a lesson on animation now, Ted.

Oh FiXiNg yOuR GenEs blah blah blah hElpiNg pEopLe blah blah blah who cares about that! We all know what this technology should be used for and that is UNETHICAL SUPER SOLDIERS!

At an interview
Interviewer: So what programming languages you know?
Me: Assembly, C++, CRISPR, Python.
Interviewer: May you repeat yourself?
Me: I said Python

Is this the beginning of an era where men turn to god? The implications are revolutionary. CRISPR can end world hunger or it can also engineer the next pandemic.

Why dont we use this to get rid of the corona virus (covid 19)? We could just make a guide RNA of sars cov 2 virus and inject the proteins (CAS9?
reply

Cas9: Tries to defend its bacteria
Humans: Reverse engineer Cas9 to defeat viruses and bacteria
Cas9: Well, I guess I am working with them now.

Now, you too can kill everybody and everything on the planet in the privacy of your own garage. All for 1000, 00 + sh
Coronavirus mfers.
