So, when does P#P come out?

Pinboard.in + Delibar = done.

He says it's like "PHP++" but I like to say it's more like P#P.

What about bioremediation? Bring in microorganisms, bacteria and fungal spores, from healthy forests, and inoculate this one?

I always open such links in a Chrome incognito window. Apparently there is still a page count, but it gets reset every time you open a new window.

Maybe it can't buy happiness, but it can definitely rent it.

7, among the highest for my cohort. Although it's possible the sorting heuristic I used helped, basically a loose binary sort followed by closer inspection and comparison of proximate squares. Increased the zoom level of the page to get a bigger sampling area for my eyes.

Succeed or not in their stated goal, it could end up throwing off a lot of interesting science, assuming actual bio/neuro/genetic science is backed by the venture. Presumably all this enhanced by vast amounts of computational prowess, as well.

That said, there are a lot of questions about what the philosophical, cultural, sociological and political underpinnings and implications might be. Creating a friendly environment for discussing those could be a worthwhile exercise as well. For example, what is the interaction between individual wellbeing and longevity, and the quality of world in which you live? Perhaps it's a two-way street, a wholistic set of factors that includes social wellbeing in addition to medical health, taking for example the case of that Greek island with famously long-living people (Ikaria).

As someone said, it's not the years in your life, it's the life in your years.

I'd pay for Trello 3D. With music.

It would be interesting to see a comparative ROI study of several large, publicly-funded, projects similar to the HGP. Such data would be useful in debates about policy, one would think.

Thank you for posting this. I know it's from last year, but there are realities here that should be understood by every engineer who is considering working for a startup.

Be as hard-core about your negotiation skills and awareness of employment terms, as you are about your coding skills.

Right, but presumably Medicare's prices are significantly lower due to its negotiating power (which is why "Medicare for All" may not be such a bad idea). As we can see from many of the comments here, the prices vary widely, even when you make the effort to find out what they are for your provider and insurer.
