    Wrong, the days of future sunshine or wind are not predictable, the amount cannot be relied upon. unreliable by definition

  5. Re:How about more offensive public mailing lists? on Getting More Women Coders Into Open Source · · Score: 2

    The answer is we don't want nor need that as an agenda; they question is flawed. I don't want quality projects distracted trying to recruit, for example either left handers, women, transvestites, jesuit priests...etc. as coders. If they have the ability and desire to do it, they'll make projects themselves and attract people. But to extend a crutch for the less motivated or less gifted, forget it.

  6. Re:Not Deuterium but Tritium on Cold Fusion Rears Ugly Head With Claims of Deuterium-Powered Homes · · Score: 1

    No, the muon cat DT can go at room temperature and lower, but alas nature makes it totally useless for power production, muons take too much energy to create, last for too short a time, and catalyze only 100 reactions before sticking to helium nucleus formed

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

    That's why since it was first realized in 1957, no one is trying to make a muon cat DT power plant

    We have men to thank for Linux based OS being on 80 percent of human race's computing platform of choice, 1+ billion smart phones. And most the rest run BSD, and as we know that due to mostly to men with facial hair.

    Gifted women have indeed made huge contributions to computing in general, though most I can think of were in the corporate and military realms rather than open source.

    You seem to have a misconception on the state of the art of science in the year 2015, we do not know all the "compounds" in a plant nor do we have a way to detect them all. You might be interested to know we are still discovering new "compounds" that comprise normal cow milk, for example

    The problem includes GM by methodologies such as Monsanto employes, obviously it is at least possible to alter DNA of something to make it harmful to humans, but the pro-Monsanto shills here would deny that possibility of such a problem should even be subject to testing. The are the ignorant anti-science shills, calling for blind faith in a mega-corporation that buys laws and seeks to take control of the food supply. How vile and evil, without a concern for human well being.

    You are wrong, Monsanto does use methods of questionable safety, such as mutating plants with radiation and using the deformed plants DNA for a desired characteristic. Any normal person seeing the mutant plants would be horrified. You are the anti-science one, you claim Monsanto's methodologies and products are harmless without a shred of proof. You shill in ignorance
