MORPHEUS vs NEO：

“Let me tell you why you are here. You are here because you know something. What you know you can't explain but you feel it. You've felt it in your entire life, felt that something is wrong in the world.You don't know what it is, but it's there like a splinter in your mind,driving you mad. It is this feeling that brought you to me. Do you know what I'm talking about?”

AGENT SMITH

   Did you know that the first Matrix  was designed to be a perfect human
world?  Where none suffered, where everyone would be happy.  It was a
disaster.  No one would accept the program.  Entire crops were lost.
AGENT SMITH

   Some believed we lacked the programming language to describe your perfect world.  But I believe  that, as a species, human beings  define their reality through  suffering and misery.

AGENT SMITH

   The perfect world was a dream that your primitive cerebrum kept trying to wake up from.  Which is why the Matrix was re-designed to this:  the peak of your civilization.

AGENT SMITH

   I say 'your civilization' because as soon as we start thinking for you, it really becomes our civilization, which is, of course, what this is all about.

AGENT SMITH

   Evolution, Morpheus.  Evolution.Like the dinosaur.  Look out that window.  You had your time.The future is our world, Morpheus.

AGENT SMITH

   I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here.It came to me when I tried to classify your species.  I've realized that you are not actually mammals.

AGENT SMITH

   Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment.  But you humans do not.  You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area.

AGENT SMITH

   There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern.  Do you know what it is? A virus.

AGENT SMITH
   Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet.  You are a plague.  And we are... the cure.

classical words
1、If you have that feeling where you’re not sure if you’re awake or still dreaming?

2、The answer is out there.

3、You have the look of a man who accepts what he sees because he is excepting to wake up.Ironically, this is not far from the truth.

4、Do you believe in fate ,Neo?/No Why not?/ I don’t like the idea that I’m not in control of my life

5、That you are a slave.Like everyone else,you were born into bondage,born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch.A prison... For your mind.

6、What is “real”?How do you define “real”?If you ‘re talking about what you can feel,what you can smell,taste and see.Then “real” is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.

7、Don’t think you are.Know you are

8、You have to let it all go.Fear doubt and disbelief.Free your mind

9、Drinking wine has two things:degreassing engines and killing brain cells.

10、Ignorance is bliss

11、Then you’ll see that it is not the spoon that bends .It is only yourself

12、Know thyself

13、Being the one is just like being in love.No one can tell you’re in love.You just know it through and through,balls to bones.

14、You’ll remember you don’t believe in any of this fate crap.You’re in control of your own life.

15、It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you’re not actually mammals.Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops an equilibrium with the surrounding environment.But you humans do not.You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed.The only way you can survive is to spread to another area.There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern.Do you know what this is?A virus.Human beings are a disease.A cancer of this planet.You are a plague.And we are the cure.

Some Thoughts on Cancer from a Hacker

By DanielBMarkham on June 5, 2011

Just got through reading "The Emperor of All Maladies" on my Kindle today. Both my mom and dad died from Cancer, so it seemed like a good idea to read up on the subject.

This was an excellent book which provided a great historical overview of Cancer and how science has come to grapple with it. At one point the author makes the joke that Cancer has the Kevin Bacon thing going on: take any subject, and within 7 logical jumps you'll be at Cancer research. It touches on almost all areas of modern life and science.

If you've suffered from Cancer or know somebody who has, this is a good book to read. A bit long and detailed, but it's a big subject.

Now that I'm done, it got me to thinking: the structure of how we study Cancer might be entirely inappropriate to the disease itself.

Not to spoil the book (we don't cure Cancer in the end), but as it turns out current belief is that each Cancer is a highly individualized thing -- it's your body's programming breaking down, and each person's programming breaks down in it's own way. Yes, there are broad generalities -- leukemia looks like leukemia -- but even then, there are lots of different subtypes, dozens or hundreds of mutations can lead to the disease, and only a few of those might be critical. Indeed, it looks like part of the discussion nowadays is whether there's some way of simplifying Cancer in order to create and provide treatment.

In response to this terrible uniqueness of the disease, I think, several new sciences around bioinformatics have sprung up. There's a school of thought that says that what we need is not a cure: what we need is a computerized system that "debugs" what's wrong with each person's cancer and provides unique therapy appropriate to that. Lots of five-dollar words here, including proteomics, cytogenic chemotherpathy, etc.. The water's too deep for me, but I get the part about complex systems of programming breaking down. Been there, done that.

This analogy makes a lot of sense to me as a layman, but I wonder about the way governments and scientists discover and approve new drugs. Does the solution fit the system we've created to find the solution?

The entire idea of empirical science is that we gather data, note patterns, make hypotheses, then prove them. Mathematical induction is key part of it: if it works a few times and can be reproduced, it will work always. But Cancer is exactly the opposite of that. In fact, one of the reasons it's been so tough to handle is our idea that it's just one disease we're facing. It's not.

So let's suppose that there are a million different proteins which either are under or over expressed due to a Cancer. _If_ you had ways of correcting each one, and _if_ a computer could do the analysis, theoretically you could create an intervention that would be tailored to that particular cancer, changing and evolving as the "bugs in the programming" for that particular person mutated.

But how could you test this in a double-blind study? Would you test each one of the two million interventions? Impossible. Test the computer program? Non-conclusive (and perhaps not able of being reproduced, as the program should be evolving along with technology).

I don't see any way the government could approve of such a therapy, and more importantly, I don't see any way private companies could make money from helping folks, unless you let them start patenting each one of the two million interventions, which would effectively bring research to a standstill.

I think the way we do science, the way we do medicine, the way we regulate markets where companies can help each other -- all of these things don't match up to the solution we're working towards in Cancer research. And a lot of people are going to die because of it.

Here's hoping I'm wrong.
