  1. Will e-voting ever be secure enough on Interviews: Ask Security Expert Mikko Hypponen A Question · · Score: 2

    A recent post from David Dill from Stanford University stated that "Online Voting Is a Danger to Democracy"[1]. Given that viruses and security breaches seem to be on the rise lately, do you see e-voting being established in our lifetime? [1]: https://engineering.stanford.e...

  2. Re:I was on the design team for a rapid DNA sequen on To Respond To a Disease Outbreak, Bring In the Portable Genome Sequencers (ieee.org) · · Score: 1

    Very informative answer @volvox_voxel!

    IMHO, one of the big issues with Illumina sequencing is that (apparently by design), it does not facilitate "real time" sequencing (streaming) as the MinIONs/Promethion does, i.e:

    https://www.biostars.org/p/156...

    If those .bcl files being generated could be fed ASAP into a socket or similar, that would bring Illumina closer to the new generation (4th now?) of sequencing.

    Can you please contact me (OP of BioStars post above)? I'm really interested in discussing this topic: trying to squeeze the timeline of the Illumina's to go from "batch" processing into something a bit more generative/streamlined.
