#Boulder City Council Member and Mayoral Candidate Bob Yates joking about apartheid as Editor-in-Chief of the Hastings Law Journal.

That's right. Editor-in-Chief. Who wants to know? Listen.
I've been getting a lot of flak from a few of you NLG-types
out there claiming I brandish the title of Editor-in-Chief like I
was Hearst.
So what?
This is my newspaper and I'll run it the way I damn well
please. If you've got a problem with that, write a letter to the
editor. I'll see to it that it gets in the proper file.

The dig at "neo-liberals" is fun given what the term has come to mean.

" But, once, we are told the sun forsook his reign;
Scorning to dip his chariot in the main,
He stormed the pole and fired the frozen sky;
Melted each mountain; sucked each ocean dry,
'Till in the mud the dolphins seemed to fry.
Dispoiled of ice the mountains seemed to flow
In liquid fire upon the plains below."

Couldn't say better myself. I'll just add that continuous interaction with trolls indirectly gives an original reporter and other participants injustice. Why? Because, now that discussion got flooded with other disturbances and MR got locked as a result, nobody gets to contribute a word.

Title: Scalable distance-based phylogeny inference using divide-and-conquer
I suggest a divide-and-conquer method as an alternative to Neighbour Joining, building on old ideas but with a couple of new (I think) advantages.
You can easily try it out: install "dnctree" from PyPI.org!

In follow-up to what Tim is saying, the social-collaborative aspects of knowledge gathering and curation lend themselves well to decentralized social networking.
Furthermore what the explosion of personal knowledge management tools shows, is that there's multiple spheres of knowledge, connected but having different requirements. Roughly: personal --> communal --> common knowledge. Concept of "gardening" can be used.
