Cute, but as the comments say, this will never pass UL in the US.

I haven't feel any of that among the companies I've contacted. I've been pretty selective about whom I've contacted, so there may be some selection bias there. But my choice has al…

Wish I could write from the future ...

Actually, my comments were towards what Steve said, not what you said. Sorry that that wasn't clear. Steve says biotech is data mining, and it's not. It's a physics problem. A lot …

Just more gossip, but the first thing that comes to mind whenever I think of @Mike_FTW is "Fuck You, Pay Me". Which in principle isn't bad, but ...

I wonder how big a deal this will be. Relying on GC feels like it goes hand in hand with dynamic languages. I'm used to not having to worry about cycles. Of course, I guess I'm use…
