  It's interesting, that we're getting down to the sizes of self-replicating RNA that realistically can form by a complete accident.Getting this sequence by random chance out of a pile of nucleotides is a 1 in 2^90 chance. That's around 1.2*10^27 or just around 20000 moles! Not at all an impossible number.

  We haven't finished migrating from Qt5 and there is a v45 already? Jeez.
