00:54.37 | Monet | One thing is certain - they know they cant' rely on their oil forever so they are diversifying. |

12:26.40 | Wormy_ | I was just reading in my book about the early machine language programmers, before assemblers were invented |
12:26.51 | Wormy_ | They had the respect of chess grandmasters |
12:27.47 | Wormy_ | And yet, they were quite masochist, many opposed the development of assemblers viewing them as a waste of resources and lacing precision. They fought to stay relevant despite having to code thousands of lines of 0s and 1s |
13:52.03 | Tek0516 | drom: Well my morning is filled with a moment of no idea how this code works, because from what I can tell it's somehow using a variable name that doesn't exist. O.o |

17:14.29 | Wormydroid | Forcing transistors into single states uses a lot of energy and this does not scale well |
