It's already done:
Some errors are random, some are systematic. The systematic errors tend to be either small shifts in long stretches of the same base, or interesting features of the DNA (e.g. methylation), and there are a few people trying to work out what those interesting features are.
A key obstacle to getting people interested in nanopore sequencing (or other types of observational sequencing) is that we have been locked in for so long to the idea of DNA as a sequence of letters that we forget there are other things attached to it that also have functional roles. Nanopore is more accurate when matching sequences at the signal/electrical level, but almost no one is doing that yet.
I did a Q&A on this sequencer on SoylentNews a couple of years ago:

The technology has improved substantially since then. Feel free to ask me any more questions about the sequencing. Although I'm not an author on this paper, I'm fairly familiar with the sequencing project that was done, and am happy to answer any general questions you might have on this technology.
Direct RNA sequencing can be done with the MinION as well, no hardware change needed:

Depending on how important it is to sequence all RNA, polyadenylation prior to sequencing might also be needed.
You can find out yourself for the low, low price of $1000 USD.
Someone needs to read their own summary: this looks like the Atlantic Ocean, not the Pacific Ocean.
Finally, someone [else] has realised that the brain is not necessary for a computer interface:

The following tooth treatments discourage cavity-causing bacteria and encourage remineralisation of teeth:
* Arginine-containing toothpaste -- https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/p...
* CPP-ACP-containing treatment -- https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/p...
As far as I know, the number of current manufacturers of these treatments are limited, with Colgate Pro-Argin for arginine-containing toothpaste, and GC Tooth Mousse for CPP-ACP.
this has been obvious for decades. Centuries, even. Keep a stiff upper lip and soldier on instead of emoting.
This research suggests the opposite. Instead of trying to ignore (or cancel out) the emotions, recovery to a better state is quicker if individuals accept their emotional state.
Furthermore, it's a deliberately introduced bug
Or a couple of weeks with a 3D printer, arduino, and a few other accessories.
They could if they wanted to. A MinION DNA sequencer only costs $1000 USD, and a single run would provide plenty of coverage for a whole-genome assembly of any yeasts in the beer.
I thought parliament had dissolved on 3rd May. Why are they still around when the new government hasn't been assigned yet?
All the cells in the body will become cancerous after so many generations of subdivision.
