Alrighty then. You came back just in time for the 15th anniversary.

Apparently it’s not asking anything, just stating that “what” has four letters, “sometimes” has nine, and “never” has five. Little bit of a disappointment.
JEDIT: Ninja’d.
I’m not sure why everybody has such strong feelings about the punctuation on that sign.
Or maybe not?
The sentence in the original question ends with a subordinate clause that does not, by itself, ask a question (“within which we can leverage our existing knowledge”). This is modifying a noun phrase that is part of the question (“set of simple computational rules”). Therefore, this subordinate clause is part of the original question, and should end with a question mark.
Putting all of this together, I would punctuate the sentence like this:
“The question nagging me is, To what extent can we encapsulate all what we observe in nature into a set of simple computational rules, within which we can leverage our existing knowledge?”
That’s what I said.
Shouldn’t there be a question mark somewhere?
JEDIT: Those first two lines must not end with a period, but a comma.
Proper punctuation?
No mate, the punctuation is fine.
Look again.
Still fine, mate.
First sentence.

North Korea’s belligerent leader, Kim Jong Un, has asked President Trump for talks and Trump has agreed to meet him “by May,” South Korea’s national security adviser said at the White House Thursday after delivering the invitation to the American president.
Kim has also committed to stopping nuclear and missile testing, even during joint military drills in South Korea next month, Chung Eui-yong told reporters in Washington.
After a year in which North Korea fired inter-continental ballistic missiles capable of reaching all of the United States and tested what is widely thought to have been a hydrogen bomb, such a moratorium would be welcomed by the U.S. and the world.
Kim Jong Un “expressed his eagerness to meet President Trump as soon as possible,” Chung said. “President Trump said he would meet Kim Jong Un by May.” Chung did not provide any information on where the meeting would be. In Seoul, the presidential Blue House clarified that the meeting would occur by the end of May.
The White House confirmed Trump had accepted Kim’s invitation to meet.

Oh so you’re to blame.

My brain cells are dying due to the quality of conversation there.
To be clear, that conversation had nothing to do with ender.
Is there something in the water today? Is it just because it’s Monday?
I don’t see much of anything to complain about? In fact, things have seemed fairly calm around here lately.
You haven’t seen the invisible thread.
Is there something in the water today? Is it just because it’s Monday?
It came across that way.
This is true.
What have you been hearing about the Academy voters?

I hate when people say incendiary or incorrect things and fall back on “woah, why are you so mad, dude? Why are you taking it so seriously?” the second someone tries to respond.
What’s with the aggression here bro? Calm down dude.
The remarks, delivered inside the ballroom at his Mar-a-Lago estate during a lunch and fundraiser, were upbeat, lengthy, and peppered with jokes and laughter.

President Donald Trump bemoaned a decision not to investigate Hillary Clinton after the 2016 presidential election, decrying a “rigged system” that still doesn’t have the “right people” in place to fix it, during a freewheeling speech to Republican donors in Florida on Saturday.
In the closed-door remarks, a recording of which was obtained by CNN, Trump also praised China’s President Xi Jinping for recently consolidating power and extending his potential tenure, musing he wouldn’t mind making such a maneuver himself.
“He’s now president for life. President for life. And he’s great,” Trump said. “And look, he was able to do that. I think it’s great. Maybe we’ll give that a shot some day.”
