a quarter is half of a half.

im having a good run since I havent died early, but I’m like 1 billionth on the ladder so doing relatively poorly.

I think I genuinely can fit through that. If someone can guess the width of the gap from the image I can confirm.

I don’t type with autocorrect. Last time I checked it was around the same speed as me using swipe, ~76 wpm.

I’ve recently started growing my nails so that has made it slightly harder. Not sure how people type with nails.

anyways:

reading and writing DNA is the main driver of evolution, and it does so because it is error prone (causing mutations). You can imagine this is bad if you want to preserve the integrity of the data.
