- CVS: copy-modify-merge model (many people can modify the same file, as opposed to lock-modify-unlock model)
- SVN: Atomic commits and many other improvements
Git did not invent these things.
I see it as a natural evolution of SCM.

Keep in mind that Linux was not originally intended to run with GNU. So there is no reason why you would absolutely have to use any part of GNU in order to use the linux kernel.
As far as my comment on Hurd. I know I am not running hurd. But once Debian GNU/Hurd is stable enough I might give it a try.
@purplemutantas ... By: Ormaaj. on 26 Jan 10, 19:38:01 @purplemutantas Really? I would bet even android would have to use glibc and coreutils if its running on linux. You can't really break free from that very easily. Sometimes embedded things can get away with uclibc and busybox but theres still probably something gnu in there.
Hurd is basically unused. There are a few very experimental things like Debian which use hurd, but for practical purposes it is unfinished. I doubt you use Hurd - if you did, you would know it.

The android OS uses the Linux kernel. But it doesn't use any of the GNU tools. So I imagine that it's quite different than the GNU/Linux I run on my computer. Where as I would think that GNU/Hurd would be closer to what I am running now.

When you say Linux you refering to the whole gnu/linux OS or just the linux kernel. Because Linus Torvolds only wrote the kernel not the whole OS. Most of the OS comes from Richard Stallman and the free software foundation. Stallman had a whole OS, he was just missing a functional kernel. Then someone decided to plug the linux kernel into GNU.

The behavior of RNA ... By: rkyeun. on 28 Feb 10, 03:20:21 The behavior of RNA is well-known and entirely consistent with the laws of chemistry. Matter is not intelligent. Intelligence is an emergent complexity. The patterns and arrangements the matter forms is intelligent, if you want to call unicellular organisms intelligent.

No it doesn't. ... By: rkyeun. on 28 Feb 10, 03:17:40 No it doesn't. Metabolism is stupid chemistry. Our living bodies are made entirely of non-living atoms. You don't need one to create the other, it arises from emergent complexity. Simple things can come together in complex ways.
In the very end im ... By: Aerensiniac. on 17 Feb 10, 08:05:38 In the very end im just curious why cemistry has not found anything that would behave like this.
I mean... hell there were quite a few tests about this, but in the very end the current laws of phisics and chemistry create a prety big chasm between living and non living matter.
Even the most simple living things on earth (wich means unicells included) posess intelligence. Non living matter does not. I cant help it but to wonder how non living matter aquired intelligence then.
Next comes that the ... By: Aerensiniac. on 17 Feb 10, 08:00:48 Next comes that the RNA molecule (thanks to metabolism) grows sensory arrays to actually be able to tell what it takes up and what it doesnt wants to take up through metabolism. At this point i wonder how it survived if it just metabolised everything it came in contact with, but lets skip on that.
So now we got a molecule that is actually able to tell difference between different molecules around him. Again something that requires intelligence.
@321lawc
A good ... By: Aerensiniac. on 17 Feb 10, 07:58:04 @321lawc
A good question and i would like to know the answer to it too. Thing is that the current genesis theory involving the RNA world describes the birth of life through an RNA molecule stuck in a lipid shell.
Then the story goes this RNA molecule starts up a metabolism through the lipid shell.
However metabolism in itself requires intelligence allready, wich makes me wonder how or from where did that molecule aquired it. But the story goes on.
@Aerensiniac So ... By: 321lawc. on 16 Feb 10, 20:59:40 @Aerensiniac So where did your original intelligence come from? Did it just pop into existence? Intelligence comes into being by the evolution of improvements in mirroring and responding to the natural world, I have definitely thought this over.
Funny thing you say ... By: Aerensiniac. on 16 Feb 10, 20:52:26 Funny thing you say.
I mean its only everything we know about non living matter that speaks against your conclusion.
Gives me the idea that we are trying to compare a hamster and a magnet. The magnet attracts iron and if you put a carrot in front of the hamster then its attracted too.
The only logical conclusion is that the magnet is intelligent!
Seriously though.
Think it over. When did you encounter anything like this in chemistry? Intelligence will never spawn from a non intelligent source.

Maybe come about more like a plant which leads to food growing in cycles, spreading, evolving as well as being able to be over eaten lowering the availablilty of plant food. this would lead to inteligence for finding food and a greater niche for hunters. random food just leads to random foraging

For my genes, it will make sense to inject me with a suicidal impulse to sacrifice myself for X close family members. Where X varies depending on how closely related they are to me. The tradeoff point is where it becomes likely that my sacrifice will cause more copies of my own genes to survive by dying than by living.
So, it's not really altruism - it's gene-level selfishness.

Most of the so called racial type attributes are superficial and would not have much to add to this program. The different shapes represent different species more than different races.
