Quote: Underlying this is the plummeting cost of gene sequencing. It took $3 billion and 13 years, from 1990 to 2003, to sequence the first human genome. The cost today is as low as $1,000 a patient, making it viable to sequence large numbers of people and discover relationships between genes and symptoms.
And it will probably go even cheaper...

A truly frightening film. I hope that we are wise enough to avoid such a dystopia.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

The PHP community has been buzzing about all the significant releases such as PHP 7, Symfony 3 and Drupal 8 in 2015. With improved userland application frameworks, better performance and lower memory usage PHP is about to be better than ever. Yet the world is changing and maybe PHP shouldn't try to keep up with the Joneses. You had me happy there for a moment

The Jeep’s strange behavior wasn’t entirely unexpected. I’d come to St. Louis to be Miller and Valasek’s digital crash-test dummy, a willing subject on whom they could test the car-hacking research they’d been doing over the past year.

Sounds like another "Obfuscated X Programming Contest", after looking at some of the "solutions" that were posted.

"When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life." - John Lennon

CISOs should be pushing staff who oversee patch management to install an out-of band Microsoft fix for a critical Windows vulnerability in the way Adobe Type Manager Library handles OpenType fonts. Major Windows issue. Oh wait, "ADOBE Type Manager". That explains things.
