Bill Gates - "Our strategy is to get China 'kinda addicted' to Microsoft's services." Excuse me, a whole country addicted to something?
And now this?
Services are parasitic!
Reports from 2004 indicate that humans are bacteria-human hybrids.
With the new report that some organisms' genomes exist within others, maybe Wired's article is missing the point - that non-bacterial genomes often encode bacterial proteomes (collections of proteins). Maybe, then, bacterial proteomes decode non-bacterial genomes. That would make them factories for non-bacterial genetic expression.
All that blurs the lines of classification if they ever really existed. Maybe a different classification scheme is in order (pun intended) - one that categorizes primarily according to (inter)action, not morphology.
