96% similarity genetically is made-for-tv pablum you usually get out of Nature ... it's not a science journal, it's a science propaganda and history journal.

Cite? Nature is pretty good overall and has a fairly high reputation. Yes they goof from time to time (Dog clones) but then again Science published Star in a Jar. The key is they will issue retractions.

... humans are 96% genetically similar to chimpanzees. Someone's monkeyed with nCoV and now humanity has to deal with the exposure and alteration to our immune systems (and probably genomes) for all eternity.

You are not going to censorship me...  

I don't want to censorship you! I just want to smack some sense in your head so that you stop being distracted by the subtle and irrelevant details of everyone's writing styles and focus (and argue if you feel the need) on the practical/real meaning of the contents FFS!  

Seems to me that largely my responses had been focusing on the substance of what Majormax had been saying both in regards to his assertion for a need for stability and a need for a dip...  

In other words, seems like a more substantive rather than a tonal response, even though maybe there might have been some attempts at fun with references to tone in response to you, but NOT in terms of my response to Majormax.....

In other words, I am sticking to my guns with what I already said, because overexplaining does not seem to be helping... Maybe I already over 'splained?  

Beat me to your heart's content... such beatings are not going to either improve morale nor discourage me into conceding that my posts had not been responsive attempts to Majormax and about tone.. same thing with any of my other posts, generally speaking..

I am not conceding nothing in regards to any purported overtonal emphases in my posting focus....    

Look who's in a bad mood.    

Let's pump the brakes on JayJuanGee-ism, swap it over to Nazism.

Let's not and say we did.

I'll take a moment to talk about my own trading experience, except instead of BTC I've been solely attempting to short BSV with massive leverage in very short term trades (5 minutes to 2-3 hours)....

...
Maybe you believe that you are carrying out some kind of patriotic duty, but unless you are some BIG ASS whale, you should already realize that some of the scammers may have already stacked the cards against you with their lack of liquidity and also their  pumpening of misinformation hype that can fuck you up the ass with one of the BIGGEST of unexpected Green dildos...

My motive is more profit-driven, and I don't delude myself with the pretense that I can actually effect the BSV market. You are right that I run the risk of being fucked by a green dildo at any given moment and without lube, which is why I don't leave the trades open. I just kick myself for not starting my venture a couple weeks earlier.

Fair enough.. seems risky as fuck, but I agree surely would be satisfying to get it right... .. and yeah, those BSV fucks have a lot of stupid-ass shit going on that makes no sense.. but we have already seen a lot of the dumb shit that happens in other coins too... such as ETH and ripple and even doge coin... and markets can be irrational as fuck... and worse when they are so damned illiquid like BSV... and also the diptwat believers that a pumpening is coming..... they are really waiting and it may or may not happen...

Speaking of irrational price moves, wasn't there some kind of 51% attack on BGold last week and then the price of that coin went up 15% on that day or some dumbass thing like that.  It can be crazily irrational many times in those illiquid markets.

"The way we work is killing us" aka "Dying for a paycheck".

https://getpocket.com/explore/item/the-way-we-work-is-killing-us

The Economist magazine ran this interesting chart in which they show productivity on one axis and work hours on the other. There’s this nice linear negative relationship—the more hours a country’s working, the lower the productivity.

These studies have been done at the industry level as well and show the same thing. So the idea that you’ve got to work all these crazy hours in order to be productive is just not true. It’s completely empirically incorrect. Same with layoffs. They don’t benefit companies. Job control and micromanaging doesn’t benefit companies. So we’ve created a lose-lose situation in which people are suffering and companies aren’t benefiting.

...why workers are so stressed out in the first place—management practices like long work hours, unpredictable schedules, toxic bosses, and after-hours emails.

If I am not mistaken we share something like 90% with almost everything except mushrooms and mollusks

not quite, but we do share protein-coding regions with mice at 85% (only 50% for non-protein coding regions which are more prominent in the genome).
We, humans, do have an interesting group of genes that determine the brain size (microcephalin or MCPH1 is a prime example).
This gene, and in particularly, haplotype D, is associated with increased brain size as we moved from hominids to current humans, suggesting a selective sweep. Planet of the apes anyone?

... I think Jesus is probably at the wheel now in China. Karma is riding shotgun.

https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2019/12/chinese-scientist-who-produced-genetically-altered-babies-sentenced-3-years-jail

He Jiankui, the Chinese researcher who stunned the world last year by announcing he had helped produce genetically edited babies, has been found guilty of conducting “illegal medical practices” and sentenced to 3 years in prison ...

... in November 2018, He announced that he had modified a key gene in a number of human embryos in a way thought to confer resistance to HIV. The modification might be passed on to the descendants of children born with it.

... Lovell-Badge hopes all three babies are happy and healthy and says they deserve privacy. But, “There are still many details of the case that have yet to be released,” he says. These include confirmation of the edits made to the target gene and whether the editing affected other parts of the genome, among other technical issues. There is also the question of how He “could have proceeded with what he did with so much secrecy.”

... Hurlbut also questions the rogue scientist narrative. "He [Jiankui] may have broken laws. I don’t know that. It seems like the court case wasn’t transparent to the world, which it should have been. … It can’t just be three people involved. …

... I guess if you have an AIDS-flu genetically engineered franken-coronavirus why not try and sneak it out of a P4 virology lab and test it out on the little genetically-engineered HIV resistant munchkins?

so the daily close (UTC) was above $9135.0.

and I bought 1 lot on a Deribit DEMO account.

my trade is looking good so far. 

saw a fibo retracement level of 38.2% at $9079.4.




will add a SL to my trade at $9067.00 because the local low is at $9075. still not sure about the TP. maybe "let the winners run"?

LOL, did a big mistake because I was not familiar with the UI of Deribit. did close the order completely unfortunetly! 



but hey, I'm a hypothetical short term trader. but will not reenter the market because my example trading rules are not valid anymore. MERDE!!

The Economist magazine ran this interesting chart in which they show productivity on one axis and work hours on the other. There’s this nice linear negative relationship—the more hours a country’s working, the lower the productivity.

TLDR; But the statement on it's own could be interpreted in a way that means "all the overpaid managers are quite useless"?

...why workers are so stressed out in the first place—management practices like long work hours, unpredictable schedules, toxic bosses, and after-hours emails.

That's well known, or should be, by the time, imo.
I had pretty good income, but the social and technical inabilities of my project manager(s) led to all of those effects, constantly. Even mid-night calls, which caused a new habit to switch off the phone when going to bed. Actually a good thing.
The moment i realized how tightly i was tied to my boss(es), i remember, was the one when i let my girlfriend drive the car in our "vacation", while managing servers over ssh  with a smartphone in 2009 (teeny weeny touchy screeny). Then i wanted twice the money per hour, to get my working hours count down, but they just happily paid and kept on bullshitting.
That taught me that money wasn't worth the paper it was printed on, still took me seven years to get into bitcoin, because of other reasons.

Hi folks.
Great site, great thread.
More details on me later...

Just wanted to say hello 

Update the Ram and increase capacity. 
Good luck on your adventure.

...(rest of entire post)

... every western disease expert has said these numbers are Chinese Communist Party propaganda (delusion?), some estimates have the total infected numbers are 5-6 times higher and the deceased are 2-3 times higher ... so here ya go calling Chicom BS for realz. 

Fake news:

... I guess if you have an AIDS-flu genetically engineered franken-coronavirus why not try and sneak it out of a P4 virology lab and test it out on the little genetically-engineered HIV resistant munchkins?

... clearly I was speculating, but who knows what is going on in China, it could be more depraved than even you or I can imagine. They are definitely genetically-engineering human genome (children) and genetically-engineering coronaviruses ... what happens next we can only speculate about because they lie about everything.

RAM and capacity are fine, actually.
But the memory controller is defective and L2 cache has no clock sync.
