Merkle: 'how to make a replicating manufacturing system' (a 3d printer today can print 70% of itself) #singularityu
Merkle: 'what can you build with stiff hydrocarbons? - molecular bearings that won't run dry, universal joints..' #singularityu
Ralph Merkle: "starting from small feedstock molecules, a set of tools can make stiff hydrocarbon nanorobotic devices." Mind struggling.
