    Did you know that when a cell is copying its DNA the enzyme that unzips that DNA doesn’t just start in one place, but rather unzip multiple parts of the same strand at the same time? If that weren’t the case, unzipping the DNA would take too long, and the cell would die before it could be done.

    Pretending that doing one thing is stopping us from doing other things is an incredibly idiotic way of thinking about the way progress is made.
