What's Coming up on the Radar
summary
Surveys open-source genetic building blocks and the DIY genomics movement, noting sequencing costs drop from tens of thousands to about $1,000 and a parent buying a sequencer on eBay to diagnose a child; cites services like 23andMe and fears about cheap synthesis and single‑base errors near pathogens. Tracks consumer hardware: the iPhone pushing usable mobile web and location mashups, Android bootstrapping developers, Arduino and RepRap enabling local 3D printing and repair, and the privacy tradeoffs of ubiquitous sensors.
