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?

And I want to try this once at $9265: we will never see bitcoin <$9000 again.

... 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"?

Real news:

- Coronavirus death toll rises to 492, 24,552 confirmed cases worldwide and 23,260 suspected cases. 900 recovered. (Coronovirus is spreading faster than Chinese claim and China hiding the real casualties)

- Over 3800 new infections. 39 new cases in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan

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!!


but with profit of 0.0675 BTC today.

"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.

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.

Re AIDS flu paper

[FullNode]

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.

That could be fixed, tho.

But no, last option would be the famous "Frankenstein hack", i guess.
Let's just hope my wife won't just replace the whole computer for an iPad clone from alibaba...
That's how their algorithm usually works, as long as their cpu was patched using l.o.y.a.l.t.y. software or microcode being treated with l.o.v.e. updates.
 
(Sorry, out to you very rare computer genius women. You know, the ones who don't blush when you are asked to replace bloated china-capacitors on a mainboard by their more durable metal counterparts from texas instruments...)

The question is: what does it mean?

Conspiracy or coincidence?

[Globb0]

Wondering how can Iowa vote for a gay?

Pressing a button, baby.

How could you have missed that detail?

The Irish PM likes his fellas too and no one there seems to mind. That traditionally hasn't been a bastion of inclusiveness until recent times.

Mhh.
I think it is different,
In Iowa it isn't technically a primary election, but a caucus, you have to actually stand in a designated area to support your candidate:

Each precinct divides its delegate seats among the candidates in proportion to caucus goers' votes. Participants indicate their support for a particular candidate by standing in a designated area of the caucus site (forming a preference group). An area may also be designated for undecided participants.

Consensus!

[fillippone]

<...>


Consensus!

Not sure this is the corect ethimology correct etymology(*) of consensus. I think consensus is from latin cōnsēnsus, past of verb cōnsēntīre, "feel together".
Latin is a bitch.
Source: I studied have been forced to study this nonsense for 5 years.

(*) thanks, Globb0

[HairyMaclairy]

Not sure this is the corect ethimology

Definitely not corect

Bitcoin is the oasis of sanity.

Hey that sounds like a cool motto.
