He's mapping his working time onto the pie chart. For example, if he works 9am-5pm, during that time he follows the pie chart's structure for that block of time.

At first glance, seems similar to the combat system used by Legend of Bumbo[1] (upcoming game from the Super Meat Boy dev). Have other games used this "match-three" mechanic as a combat system as well?
Also, was pleasantly surprised to see the roguelike is played in the browser. Rot.js looks awesome.

Plague-level is actually the degree of risk we are dealing with in regards to GMOs (not necessarily in likelihood, but in impact). In regards to the famine argument, consider the following:
"Invoking the risk of "famine" as an alternative to GMOs is a deceitful strategy, no different from urging people to play Russian roulette in order to get out of poverty. While hunger is a serious threat to human welfare, as long as the threat remains localized, it falls under risk management and not the PP [precautionary principle]." [1]

I agree with the paper: the principle issue with GMO is the unavoidable, unpredictable systemic effects it will have.
P.S. I've already found several, almost verbatim, examples of the given fallacies right here in these comments.

Got this one:
>No, I still don't want to download your bullshit app
Thinking it was too good to not already be a headline, I searched and found this:
>No, I'm not going to download your bullshit app
Pure gold.
