How about compiled binaries (for Windows users). How difficult is that...?
All these tricks are just wishful thinking.
If other people learn you've been contacted then you're guilty no matter how you did it - by telling them or by stopping updates to a web site. It's all communication.
Stop drinking the cool-aid...
For the body to take advantage of the vitamin A it needs to be consumed with fat.
So the poor people should make sure to have a good kebab with their portion of rice...
If only there was a way to find out whether or not the vitamin A in Golden Rice could be absorbed by humans...like, I dunno, eating some. Nah, you'd have to be a reckless idiot to do that. Much better to sit around on the Internet and imagine ways it might not work.
Oh, wait, somebody did eat some! http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/89/6/1776.full.pdf
Cross-bred plants can't be patented?
It's not entirely the fault of the populace that they are ignorant. Have you tried finding out in what way GMO foods at your local supermarket have been modified?
In the case of Golden Rice the modification have been widely published.
Even Wikipedia has them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_rice
These stories are rutinely removed from the web very quickly, this is one of the few I could find:
http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/health-news/suppressed-report-shows-cancer-link-to-gm-potatoes-436673.html
So
In that case I'm guessing this guy is the only person who knows the real truth about AIDS, yes?
Yes, but we're talking about Golden Rice here, which is nothing to do with RoundUp.
Golden Rice has exactly three extra genes in it. The modification made was openly published. Many widely eaten foods already contain the exact same genes The only reason it was added to rice is because that's what these people grow/eat on a daily basis.
It's a cool thing, but some of us aren't playing games when it comes to our health.
Why would GMO affect your health? Do you have any idea what percentage of 'natural' plants are nasty, poisonous, cancer-inducing, etc.?
eg. Potatoes. When they turn green in sunlight it's because they're making a deadly poison to protect themselves. It can cause illness, birth defects and even death. There's no way a potato would get FDA approval if it was introduced in our diets today.
Tomatoes have it, too. You know potatoes and tomatoes are members of the nightshade family, right? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solanine
I hope you're totally paranoid about potatoes and ask to inspect them before cooking if you're in a restaurant. Peeling away the green skin doesn't remove it (the green is only chlorophyll, not the Solanine) and it's not affected by heat. You do, ask, right?
Oh, wait...people have been eating them for more than 100 years so it doesn't count.
One sided proprietary research (just like with pharmaceuticals) and lack of any kind of research is the problem.
Wars in the Middle East don't pay for themselves, you know...
Instead of adding genes to rice that make it contain more vitamin A, people should simply eat more carrots.
Good luck finding an 'unmodified carrot'.
Oh, wait. If it was modified more then 100 years ago it doesn't count as evil.
Congratulations Jethro Batts, 28, and David Boulton, 24 for showing young women interested in technology exactly what assholes they have to look forward to growing up.
You mean it's only 'technology' people who do/say things like this...? Thanks for the warning.
To do nothing is to be nothing.
