Two questions:

1. Why would we think otherwise considering that everything in the universe seems to rotate from galactic clusters to galaxies to black holes to stars to planets to the brains of physicists trying to reconcile relativity and quantum?
2. Does the math actually work out? If so, is there a known constant for the angular momentum of the universe that would explain what we’re seeing?

It typically is pasteurized if it comes from a woman other than the baby’s own mother. If it is donated milk, for example.

I don’t remember which phone, but one of mine had an rgb led that could be set to blink different colors for different apps. I really miss that!

If these aren’t microplastics, what are?

“Micro” just means “small” in this case and doesn’t mean “microscopic” or have anything to do with “micrometer”.

The definition of “microplastic” according to NOAA: “Microplastics are small plastic pieces less than five millimeters long”.

What’s stopping us from using similar techniques in hot climates now? Why aren’t we building similar structures as homes in Phoenix instead of the standard suburban homes?

They do appear to call him “The Eye of Sauron” so, maybe the person writing this wasn’t really interested in making him look good and phoned it in.

As a Coloradan, I agree. Also, New Mexico and Virginia. Probably should also leave PA to Jesus Land.

This actually gives me anxiety. I imagine getting stuck that way.

It’s the feel-good story that Republicans talk about when they say “pull yourself up by your bootstrap” but they’re upset because that’s only supposed to work for white men.

They don’t, though. Not for all valid immigration statuses. For example, while a friend of mine was here on a student visa, they simply had their visa, their drivers license (which not everyone would have), and their foreign passport.

I’d say it would actually be a fantastic idea to have some kind of immigration identification card for people who are here legally but are not peanent residents. Something simple that dumb law enforcement officers can accept as firm proof of legal status.

I actually don’t think this sheriff is wrong when he says we need a simpler method of identifying whether someone is legally here. I likely disagree with him in everything else but I agree with him on this.

As an academic, if I could make $1M/year by showing my body on OF, I would quit my job in a heartbeat. I would make my money while I can and reassess when no one is interested anymore.

Once I’d made my money, maybe I could use my academic expertise to effect some real change in the world. I’d certainly be more capable of making an impact if I were independently wealthy.

Do you have recommendations for tutorials on this?

For raster imagery (and probably vector) I recommend imagemagick.

If you read the article, they are suggesting a different approach to peer review, not doing away with it. They want to find ways to build in incentives for reviewers to make it worth their while to review rather than allowing it to continue as something that scientists do out of a sense of obligation.

They have an interesting approach but I think it doesn’t go far enough.

They currently live in the US. So, whether they properly answered your prompt seems to depend on your definition of “your country”.

I think they are clarifying due to what has happened with Ubisoft. They’re also using it as an opportunity to spread the word farther that they won’t do the same thing.

How about we steer toward better data privacy in general? Cars are collecting way too much data about us? So is everything else! We need sweeping legislation to claw back our privacy. We need a constitutional amendment guaranteeing a right to privacy.

I don’t know Korea’s laws but this would likely be illegal in the US, too. It depends on whether it could be proven that you knew that the stocks were issued in error. And even if it wasn’t a criminal act, the company would be within their rights to recover the mistakenly issued stocks.

Entropy Man would be a scary accidental villain. Just random acts of chaos as they go through life until enough shit goes wrong and they become persecuted. The they learn to use their powers for revenge against an unjust society.

It was the Mastcom-Z camera on Perseverance.

Okay, I have a question. I would love to write my papers in latex, but none of my colleges use it. Is there a way to reasonably collaborate with coauthors who only use Word and for whom Latex would be confusing and difficult?
