Task for some more suited than me: turn transactions into protein representations, and every mining operation becomes a folding operation.

Agreed, not a zero-sum game. The goal of equality falls apart the moment you include people in the equation! We'll be stuck with that at least until everyone has access to genetic engineering.

I never used facebook, and I'm 80% of my way to being off google - I'm not worried.
I'm not new, I've been here for almost a decade. I don't provide an email address, so when a browser logs me out I create a new account.
No. If you must talk to yourself then you should "seek employment somewhere with a dedicated office or work from home" -- if you were so important that your productivity should come at the expense of those around you then you would already have an office.

Wikipedia say young children should avoid it because of the high mineral content not because of radioactovity. - "S.Pellegrino is not suitable for infants under 12 weeks of age,[39] because their gastrointestinal tract and urinary system is immature and cannot withstand highly mineralized water." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.Pellegrino

A sort of naive liberal narcissism. Or happy go lucky. If I'm nice then everyone else will be nice. And I'll take that smile at face value. Alas, the world's a big place.
Re:Rust 1.24 on Friday February 16, 2018 @06:39AM (#16391639)
Agreed - I am an example. I had vim format my rust code on save, but there was one single bit of formatting which drove me nuts, so I turned the plugin off.
Re:Where Dutch directness comes from on Thursday February 01, 2018 @05:44AM (#16280878)

Although I'm not a Dutch speaker I'd suggest that would be "What will you have?".

It seems there's no such thing as objective journalism. Was there ever, is this new, or just worse? Philosopher-based journalism might be an improvement, but sometimes even philosophers seem to be committed to a point of view.
