Subject: RE: binary logic

Rumors abound of a NIF gate, which shares functionality with a supposed NTHEN gate. I find this improbable. As we know, forking is a dream associated with the far future, out there with warp drives and celibate rabbits. First, computers must learn to subtract. Perhaps this can be done by assigning a negative abstraction to a bit space and adding for a result. I'm just theorizing here, but if you could do that, you might be able to pass other information to memory and do calculations on it.

No. Not in our lifetimes.
