Big goals:
* the pursuit of <AGI>
* <computational physics>[physics simulations], including <scientific visualization software>
* <formalization of mathematics>

Just <art>:
* useless mathy stuff
* incredibly nifty little tools that are just so satisfying to use it is mind blowing:
  * <ncdu>
  * <GNU parallel>
* media related stuff
  * <FFmpeg> one liners!

As mentioned by <Craig Venter> in <100 Greatest Discoveries by the Discovery Channel (2004-2005)>, the main outcomes of the project were:
* it established the ballpark number of <human genes>
* showed that human genomes are very similar across individuals.

Important predecessors:
* 1981: <Cambridge Reference Sequence>
