> an early sequence of SARSCov2
Which apparently had never replicated before and thus was not subject to evolution...? My point was just to illustrate how many trillions of replications happen for viruses in the wild. 100 billion is absolutely nothing for biology.
The snide ad hominem that makes up the rest of your comment doesn't belong here. If you had just left it out, this would be a conversation and not an unnecessary source of anger and stress.
- samatman 5y ago> snide ad hominem You came straight out the gate with "conspiracy nutters", then typed two paragraphs of misleading nonsense which did nothing to further the conversation. This isn't a dialogue, this is me tagging you for other's sake as someone to ignore on this subject. Which is an important subject.
- titzer 5y ago> You came straight out the gate with "conspiracy nutters" I stand by everything I wrote. It will definitely feed the conspiracy theory people. I was on r/conspiracy last night and saw a link to a similar article that had identified the stop sequence of the Moderna vaccine, part of the non-protein-coding RNA, as a patented sequence. Well, of course the stop sequence could be patented. It's non-coding DNA. The comments were filled with totally bizarre ranting by people who literally had no understanding. > two paragraphs of misleading nonsense Wonderful dynamic here. If you want to actually engage with the ideas I wrote above, please do, but I'd rather assert that the entirety of what you have written here is subtractive and unhelpful. And you're literally and by your own omission not trying to "further the conversation" but stamp it out and have literally zero constructive dialog to offer other than "this person is crazy." > This isn't a dialogue So good, please don't continue to reply then. There's [-] for you to click on. You're welcome to downvote. It'll be less effort than firing off half-cocked, completely misunderstanding what I wrote, and creating a stinky atmosphere which devalues all of HN.
