   I was hoping to see a lot of comments here. However, I immediately realized why there aren't any. So, I'm going to break the ice and say I related with this, and thanks for posting it.

   I agree whole heartedly and have been to some of the places you have. One thing I have noticed in some friends and acquaintances who've worked out of depression is that they can attain this loftiness to themselves. They feel superior t

    Those are valid points, and we can go further and debate how suitable Ion is as a platform even for novel and structural variants. However, in terms of what Ion promised early on, and the talks they gave at genetic sequencing conferences --

    I'm curious what this will do to disrupt the efforts of companies offering tests using the current array of DNA sequencing technologies (which are probably mostly Illumina Hi-Seqs and MiSeqs). This piece of equipment seems like it cuts out

    I used to work for Ion in R&D for their sequencers. Sales would claim, "the chip is the machine!" However, the chip really does nothing in Ion's case. Like you said, millions of little ph sensors. This thing actually lives up to the Ion

    what's worse is that once you cut through all the politically correct bullshit that is being spewed on this subject you find that this was caused by a joke.

    I don't really feel like they actually get into the specifics of how scala actually benefited them outside of what everyone already knows about scala from a really high level. Bummer. I'm using scala at a small startup.
