This is going to be the most important application of generative AI. Especially if we ever achieve good text-to-video.

Image generators plus human ranking:

The question is how they managed to keep face consistency across images.

In the case of indel mutations (see limits of gel electrophoresis for minimal size difference issues), it is possible to determine the allele with gel electrophoresis. You can just read out the alleles right in the gel. It is a thing of beauty.

As of 2020, this method appears to be much cheaper than DNA sequencing approaches.

Study of the genome, one of the omics.

The book is a bit slow until Charles K. Kao comes along, then it gets exciting.

A "Cryptocurrency swapper" is a service that swaps one type of cryptocurrency for another.

It is basically the same as buying and selling from exchanges for fiat, except that you only get fiat.

Swappers are in general able to receive send coins from any address, including self custody addresses.

Centralized swappers were a good way to workaround the endless Monero bans from exchanges circa 2024, e.g. x.com/cirosantilli/status/1771900725649371240 as they effectively serve as proxies for exchanges that are still legal in other countries.

They will eventually have to ban Monero of course, and then the only way left will be decentralized exchanges.

This leads to a scenario where the only effective way to ban Monero is to also ban all other cryptocurrencies. The question is if countries will go that far or not.

There are explicit examples of this. We can have ever thinner disturbances to convergence that keep getting less and less area, but never cease to move around.

If it does converge pointwise to something, then it must match of course.

Once we had the amplified 16S DNA, we were almost ready to start sequencing!
