Maybe it's not just transistors they're hoping to gain from this. I think it's more like building a brain from organic matter that's the real boon. Sooner or later we'll be discarding silicon and extracting neurons

Man I really hate all the crap websites like this put on their page these days. What's wrong with reading the article as the first thing you see? Scroll-throughs and clickables and cookies oh my.

Wow, never thought I'd meet ME in hackernews. This is exactly what I do. I have a domain with a few services running and upload everything to that, then get a hyperlink to it to embed/raw post everywhere.

The fact people can take tickets and you have to fight and have an argument about it really shows that there's a discourse inevitable in systems like Agile. Who gets the 'tickets', why are 'tickets' always rulin
