Interfering with telomere activity is a critical step for cancer progression (see the halmarks of cancer, limitless reproductive potential), so this procedure essentially makes every cell in your body pre-cancerous. In my opinion, the most

I really like this. It reminds me of the ideas Steve Yegge was discussing with his "software engineering political axis". https://plus.google.com/u/0/110981030061712822816/posts/KaSK...

In most cases, cancer progression results from cumulative genetic damage, which is strongly linked to aging. See, e.g. http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v448/n7155/full/nature0...

I'd encourage a different interpretation of the data: Cancer holding steady actually is an improvement. Everyone is guaranteed to die of something, and the longer you live the likelihood of that something being cancer greatly increases. So

There is a great deal of philosophy here, but I'd prefer to see some data that backs up his point. Can you show me a project in which investing in an estimate harmed it?

I actually laughed out loud at: "Improve your Theoretical knowledge" ...followed by... "Learn C" I obviously have a completely different idea in mind when it comes to computer science theory than the author does.

I think it is because Blizzard is so careful about balancing the game, resulting in an immense diversity of available strategies. These become apparent once both players are sufficiently close enough in skill to be able to "spam" the same n

From the description, this sounds quite over-engineered. You need a system to queue jobs and to automatically restart jobs that fail? I must be missing something here, can you help me figure out what it is?
