I don't think you can argue that building dams is a requirement of survival. It is disconnected from evolution.
It is certainly not disconnected from evolution: they started doing for some reason, and continued to do it as they evolved. Maybe at some point it WAS a matter of survival, such as lowering down-stream water levels so larger water predators couldn't swim up-stream to get at them.
The auto-transcribed document wouldn't be able to identify who is speaking at any given time.
The problem isn't that I'm offering fake Rolexes for sale, it's that some law breaker is telling people about it!
Well, there's another mark in the "pro" side of Vancouver!
Racing stripes, a spoiler, maybe cut a hole in the side and add an LED or two. Water cooling is the next step after that.
Where's the badge pinned? Kinky.
No, but killing a lot of bacteria from a surface leaves more room, and less competition, for the drug/chemical-resistant ones to grow and spread further.
There is no standard that mandates a web server to be on port 80.
Mandated, no. But it is mentioned in RFC 2616 (HTTP 1.1) as the default port. To stray from defaults for no reason is inherently suspicious.

Think I had one of those at Starbucks the other day: tasted like schettino to me, anyway...
The thing I heard is that Amiga's scripting language REXX was awesome
On the Amiga it was ARexx, but yeah it was pretty sweet. It could interface live with just about any program that was open (plus launch any it needed) and operate them without your intervention, so it had similar power to Linux's shell scripts, but had the potential to be somewhat graphical and it was far easier to learn than figuring out the complicated command-line syntax of every program under the sun.
"cooperative memory protection"? You mean "no memory protection".
Exactly. The programs must cooperate with their shares of memory, or I take my red and white checkered ball and go home, and none of us get to play.

Are you really going to blame GE for, essentially, following the rules?
Nope. I blame them for buying the rules from the politicians, and the politicians for selling the rules to the highest bidder.
Given that around half the people that ever lived are alive now
To reiterate the GP, a sense of scale would be useful, but your senses are apparently WAAAAAAYYYY OFF. Probably well over 100 billion people have ever lived, and that's estimated from 50k years -- just half of your timeframe. That would mean less than 7% of the history of human population is alive now, not 50% (nor the more asinine and more common 75% quote).
You're fucking delusional.
