    • There’s way too much “pop-up ui” infecting PC from mobile. I want a solid-state UI. Don’t make me hover over anything to show a pop up, or swipe, or stupid shit like that.

    • Stop making these shitty disappearing scrollbars that are way too thin! Scrollbars are the single most important UI element on the screen. They need to be LARGE and they need to STAY VISIBLE AT ALL TIMES

    • WORDS. Stop using symbols. Use words.

    • Remove all the little icons and give me a menu bar.

    • Stop using CSS for desktop software. CSS belongs on the web.

    • Windows 95 has the best UI. Just go back to that. It’s better than everything that came after.


  • There are about 15 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms (i.e. ‘spots in the genome that can change’) that commonly change in the human genome. For each of those spots, there are 2 possible alleles. So 2^15,000,000 ~= 10^4,515,450.

    And yes, this number is excluding “batshit” mutations that don’t make sense. This is a conservative estimate because it doesn’t include rare SNPs or structural variants (i.e. when lots of nucleotides get removed, inserted, or flipped).
