    Which is fine, most people will just use the binary driver. At the end of the day I care about stability and performance.

    When you put "scientists" in quotes, is it because you're claiming they're not really scientists? Science is meant to test the natural world, often to find out if our assumptions are valid. Re-validating what is already known is actually useful science, though not always as useful as new discoveries.

    If you "Ask someone who actually WORKS in the field" and you'll find all kinds of urban myths and wrong assumptions that come along with real actual useful information. Science helps distinguish between the two in a meaningful way. The sensationalism of most news articles about science being done is usually just the news media and not the scientists doing the work making these statements.

    So please, don't go around bashing scientists and science just because someone knew something before someone tested a claim.

    And any text file can be transnational if you write your code right. We can keep going down this road about how you don't /need/ X technology, but nobody wins. It's really OK to see the good in different technologies.
