Our first anthem, Norges Skaal, Norways' Toast, reminds one that a lot of the driving force behind the constitution and our liberation from sweden a hundred years hence, was composed of (frequently drunk) students.
For Norway, birthplace of giants,
we this Toast will empty!
And when we first get our blood in a boil,
we sweetly of liberty dream.
Though we will someday wake up
and break chains, ties, and force.
For Norway, birthplace of giants,
we this Toast will empty!
A toast to you, my jolly friend,
and to Norwegian lasses!
If you have one, then a toast to that,
and shame on he, who fails!
Yes, shame he who loves force,
and hates girls, wine and song!
A toast for you, my jolly friend,
and for Norwegian lasses!
And yet a toast for Norway’s mountains,
for cliffs, snow and hills!
Hear Dovre's echoes cry: “Good Luck!”
for its toast thricefold thanking.
Yes, thrifold three all mountains will,
for sons of Norway cry Good Luck!
Still yet a toast for you, my mountain,
for cliffs, snow and hills!

Ha, there's loads of press being given to a new wonder material that doesn't support the growth of biofilms.
I've just read the paper. It's a nanostructured surface that effectively has lots of little wrinkles filled with silicone oil. By their own admission it washes away in a couple of days. And it's filled by spin coating.
I think it's like one of the scandinavian countries -- they had a nest egg from selling oil rights. Except Alaska has wasted most of it.
Alaska gives it away every year to its citizens.
I like that because even though it's not enough money to live on or anything, like a thousand per person, it's step one towards a UBI (and from a red state!).
it's a pretty stupid use of it, economically, but like, nice if you are going to be dumb with it

This tax return represents the very last tendril of my marriage being released.
I've double checked my credit report and various other things and there's nothing left, I've exterminated all of it.
Well, the car too... maybe I should get rid of the car

Sounds super useful.
Yeah but carbon nanotubes
This was just teflon on top of those shrinking plastics to cause lots of little bunched wrinkles.

well I mean
it sounds like it might be an important step towards developing something that is more useful
I made a game! Hotline Maui. Requires mouse and keyboard.

If it has the word nano in it it's 99% useless as near as I can tell.
This is hyperbole, but like, I've seen too many seminars where people wrote their name using a laser on a wafer of some shit and then it was never heard from again
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

They could have used the money for something even more foolish like ridiculously subsidized petroleum like Venezuela did.

The nano invention they need to get going is DNA digital storage.
That shit is just as sci fi as shit gets.
Synthetic biology is going to be the next big thing. I would advise everybody to get a PhD in it right away
What about my masters in data science tho
What's all this fucking math for then
*flips cubicle*
Oh if you have that now then you're all set too. It's just in 5 or so years the market will be saturated there and new tools will mean that everybody just does a little bit of it.

I was married and filed joint last year, wondering if the AGI my ex gave me was even correct.

Obama obviously ended the war on oil. There can be no other explanation!

I got you, fam. I need you to do a popper.

It turns out that making really long oligos by hand is a colossal pain in the ass.
Also, is DNA more information dense than like, a SSD?

Yeah.
There's still a country CD jammed in the CD player and whatnot.
I'd just rather be done with this thing, it's not paid off until next march.

Yes. A shitload more.

so.

also that is SO COMPLETELY ME. "Am I? *sips drink*"
Yes.
1 gram of DNA is roughly a billion terabytes.
Huh.
