That is a completely different type of "folding". Protein folding is incredibly complex: "it takes about a day to simulate a nanosecond (1/1,000,000,000 of a second). Unfortunately, proteins fold on the tens of microsecond timescale (10,000 nanoseconds). Thus, it would take 10,000 CPU days to simulate folding -- i.e. it would take 30 CPU years!"
Chromatin doesn't "fold" DNA, it just bundles it into compact fibers during mitosis/meiosis. The purpose of chromatin is to bundle DNA into chromosomes and also to regulate which genes are expressed, which is fairly well understood and predictable, while the folding of proteins is incredibly hard to predict.
He isn't being serious. This is a direct reference to the Austin Powers movie where Dr. Evil has sharks with "frickin lasers" attatched their heads trained to kill people.
"What color does red and yellow make?"
Well depends if you are talking about red and yellow light or red and yellow paint.
Also, you only have a limited amount of questions that you had to type yourself. Im sure there aren't more than 50 of them. I could refresh the page and answer them myself, then write a script to use my answers and spam you 10000 times.
That method does work very well on a small scale though.
We all know the next logical step...
All I had on my calc when I went to high school was falldown and pheonix. Shit compared to watching porn on a calc in class. Nobody would suspect it!
Why not do away with rebates and instead discount the actual prices? Because the asshole manufacturers are hoping the customer looses the rebates or never bothers. Same thing with the sandwich cards.
omfg... I saw this on CNN like 3 hours ago, but thought nobody on slashdot would care.
Damnit... I missed a good opportunity for my first accepted/. submission. **kicks self**

They should invent something like this for Slashdot... You have to have social interaction with x amount of people before you can waste hours reading slashdot comments.

proteins do..
"can product the 7.5 milliwatts needed for a wireless sensor."
"a cruise ship of the coast of Africa"
"the lawyer will want its money up front."

I wonder why it didn't happen sooner..

If you RTFA, he can't get a job with a "direct competitor" within a year.
I don't think anyone would go if it weren't for that.

It has a bunch of pictures.. so in anticipation of a slashdotting:
Google Cache
Now I can have my CTRL+ALT+DEL keys in range for easy access!
If I had mod points, i'd give you some.
What else can you add to a cell phone?
The kitchen sink.
Could you use Photoshop and just overlay the images? That would make it infinitely easier.
