Your base instincts/reflexes in many martial arts situations will lead to problems. They have to be controlled by training 'new' stuff over it.
Maybe there is also a lot of 'trained stuff' to remove in order to let the base work. Think of how (untrained) parents interfere with childrens' (natural) movements.
one huge causality network... you'll need to have a cascade of genes to get a particular outcome
And if you, on top, follow the idea that physical conditions (starting at the molecular level, INGBER) are a major determinant of gene expression you might eventually come to your own conclusions regarding the value of simply linking 'the genome' to conditions of ill health.
Actually I've just had a look at TFA, and it doesn't have any sort of details on what / where (not USA) / when (well vaguely - recently) / why (profit ???) / how these attacks occurred.
Think psychological engineering – spread some information (valid or not is irrelevant) to raise level of consciousness among the sheeple. Start with those who, on average, are better informed. Wait for diffusion of information, then focus in on homeland security in order to justify this or that.
You offered a German proverb, I'll swap you an English one: you threw the baby out with the bathwater.
Hmm.
"When the proverb "Don't throw the baby out with the bath water" or its parallel proverbial expression "To throw the baby out with the bath water" appear today in Anglo-American oral communication or in books, magazines, newspapers, advertisements or cartoons, hardly anybody would surmise that this common metaphorical phrase is actually of German origin and of relatively recent use in the English language. It had its first written occurrence in Thomas Murner's (1475-1537) versified satirical book Narrenbeschwörung (1512) which contains as its eighty-first short chapter entitled "Das kindt mit dem bad vß schitten" (To throw the baby out with the bath water) a treatise on fools who by trying to rid themselves of a bad thing succeed in destroying whatever good there was as well. In seventy-six rhymed lines the proverbial phrase is repeated three times as a folkloric leitmotif, and there is also the first illustration of the expression as a woodcut depicting quite literally a woman who is pouring her baby out with the bath water.1 Murner also cites the phrase repeatedly in later works and this rather frequent use might be an indication that the proverbial expression was already in oral currency towards the end of the fifteenth century in Germany."

Yes – a few seconds after the engine of the oil-tankship stopped to work, nothing hugely alarming had come to light. Unfortunately, the vessel crashed into the pier after travelling for a few kilometers.
If so, maybe this processor war we're fighting is ultimately not even worth winning.
Probably more a sign of a new kind of software gap, IMHO due to still missing AI (not everyone is dealing with video/visual data), this again caused by an imbalance in investment in basic research which favours 'hard science' (with the assumption that there is much more to AI than 'logic', even if it is 'fuzzy').
If there were 'intelligent' applications that could fix Joe Sixpack's everyday problems more autonomously – e.g., write this letter to...! – you would even need more power than you have today.
In related news, an initiative of car manufacturers spearheaded by Ford has introduced an enabling 'cylinder per need' model. Car performance is wirelessly monitored in real time to give the customer the option to add in additional power according to his needs if he has signed to a plan designed to optimally fit his profile (composed on his overall lifestyle information). This also creates a new exciting opportunity to reduce individual carbon tyreprints for the consumer.

Especially when the you try to place blame in a collision.
Much more fun when people will be suing each other as a consequence of crashes in superfluous surrogate Ersatz-worlds (like: "General Motors' Pontiac division is spending thousands of dollars to create a make-believe dealership that will sell make-believe cars for as little as a few dollars a piece.").
Or after two avatars collide in the real world – now that would be progress.
Maybe consciousness is what happens when your "simulation" extremely recursively tries to predict itself.
Interesting – my TaiChi master tries to get across that it is important to direct attention to what will happen in the not so distant future (to 'observe' what will happen), because you are always late if you observe what happens 'now'. My own idea on the issue was that you at least partially determine the future this way.
How many commercial aircraft have been shot down in the last 10 years?
Some believe United Airlines Flight 93, within a larger time frame, definitely Iran Air Flight 655, and there is also some speculation regarding TWA Flight 800.
