  OK, next step would be stopping your stupid immune system attacking your β-cells.

  There are figures that suggest a different picture, but hardly anyone knows them. In 2013, the former Schwyz public prosecutor Lorenz Müller wrote a “behavioral analysis of serial arsonists”. Based on a survey of German-speaking Swiss cantons, he examined 19 series of fires with a total of 21 perpetrators. Of these 21, three were current and one were former firefighters - their share was therefore just under 20 percent. Müller’s conclusion: the firefighter as arsonist is not “such an unjustified cliché” after all.

  There were many arsonists who were actually firefighters:

  Those indeed came back to the scene.

  I made a bigger one which sends its state to a 64x64 LED matrix sitting at home. Someday when we feel brave enough I will publish it’s URL ;)

  Many many years before canvas was a thing I made a tiny tiny version of it on my domain and let people know about it with stumbleuponit.

  At some time I decided to log the pixel changes and it seems, some had had fun with it. (They “played” Pong at some time.)
