Your first two points are good for GMOs, but the other two are the result of breeding efforts rather than lab work. There are no GMO cows and chickens in high commercial production, and FWIW no GMO tomatoes either.

Then again, GMOs and conventional breeding taken to a commercial extreme get tangled so often it's hard to separate them in these sorts of arguments.

Interesting. What type of advanced analytics do you mean?

Feature requests in e-discovery bloat your original software out of all proportion. Nevermind getting past the original part of effectively searching large troves of data in different formats.

This book was sufficiently depressing to turn me off to disaster weather news forever. Nightmarish even.

No shit. ET is set off by everything - exercise, alcohol, caffeine, lack of sleep, etc. In a perverse way it forces you to stop addictions to stimulants, otherwise you can't help but look 50 years older in front of friends and family because your fingers shake nonstop.

Then again, the clock on the wall in the pub might have a hidden microphone, or camera. This site is rather ingenious in where they put microphones/cameras (wall charger?) - supercurcuits.com

I'm no tinfoil theorist, so I wonder. If a city is plastered with HD Cams (solar power, etc), would it make sense to go places at night then if you don't want to be seen? Or is infared really easy to add and would defeat those efforts?

More importantly, wait until these HD cams and other video cameras are hacked so that someone else besides the consultants, government, and myriad other actors has complete control. Straight out of a dystopia trope.

Thoroughly obvious sockpuppet/shill. In Russia, it's 99.9% of people who are poor, 0.1% of people who are outstandingly mega-rich, and no middle class. A common yearly salary for a developer in Russia is three thousand dollars. The Russian Federation is increasingly corrupt and repressive, escalating dramatically as Putin realizes that his support is disappearing as fast as public support for the ACA website implementation.

The much beloved Plasma Pong for older versions of Windows can still be found on the 'net. It did something similar, and I spent quite some time playing in its sandbox.

Use GMVault once, and at least the archive of old emails is no longer an issue.

Completely agree. Created an account just to say that the lab work (for orgo 1) was the single most fun, fulfilling class I took in college. It's probably why I like to cook very much.
