This article is an awesome write-up. I love how it walks through the process of discovery from the beginning- or as close to it as readers will bear. Its insane to think that we are at a point where we can just swap a coating on a virus as easily as I can un-solder a component from a motherboard. Its also scary as hell to think about what plagues could be created in these labs for biological war.
Like sure we get atomic power its super clean- but now we also have nukes. Tasty yummy nukes.
Where is the biological nuke equivalent here? I don't want to spread Microsoft style FUD about such exciting news but it does make me wonder what classified work is being done in Andromeda strain style labs.
I am both excited and scared as hell about what we can do these days.
