I don't think they need that much help.
Right on.
The laws of physics probably don't allow for FTL travel. It's probably not a good idea to pin all our hopes on narrative conveniences invented by the writers of space operas. However, if we can extend our lifetimes…
That makes no sense whatsoever. Yes, I know I'm banned. Hello, people with showdead on!
Disasters? I'd say the chans are the only interesting and creative places on the internet.
If the anti-fascists (who were, at the time, literal Communists) had won in Germany, would history have wound up any better? Or just as bad?
More to the point, in those countries it's very very unlikely for anyone to pull a gun on a cop.
There's undoubtedly a great many companies out there where everybody earns at least $70K. I have no idea how this guy managed to get himself in the news.
But proofs always come back to axioms, and on what basis do we accept axioms? That they sound intuitively right. So we've just kicked the problem upstairs a bit, we can't avoid using our intuition. Personally I'm more…
But are people more likely to accept the axioms of Principia Mathematica (and the soundness of every logical step from page 1 to 300) than they are to accept the notion that 2 + 2 = 4 based on intuitive notions of what…
But they could have extradited him before he ever went into the embassy. They didn't. Only Sweden is currently attempting to extradite him.
If LA is worried about housing affordability, the best thing to do would be to work to get President Trump elected, so the city can get rid of all the people who have no legal right to be there in the first place. What…
Angkor Wat was built in the twelfth century AD, and is well within the known technological capabilities of the Khmer empire at the time. A vimana, which from googling appears to be some kind of flying temple in Sanskrit…
> Today, we can kill everyone off with an exchange of the already existing nuclear weapon inventory I'm not convinced we can. For starters, the nuclear weapon inventory is a lot smaller than it was back in the 80s when…
Oh, right, now I understand.
It's not about portrayal, it's about actual physiology. The percentage of alcohol users (ie almost everybody) who become alcoholic is quite low. The percentage of heroin or meth users who become heroin or meth addicts…
Indeed they do, because the guards' union want to maintain their monopoly on the contraband smuggling business.
True, although I'd guess that the massive decrease in mortality in infants under 1 (who are still massively more likely to die than older children) is probably due to improved medical intervention. For older children…

Has SpaceX actually cleaned out and reused any of their recovered rockets yet? I'm guessing no, they're still analysing them, but it'll be interesting when they do. (Damned if I'd want my payload on the first recycled…
Or, y'know, Paris. Or Brussels. Or Paris, the time before. Or Paris, the time before that. Or Madrid. Or London. Or...
An engine doesn't get 100 mpg, a vehicle does. Attach it to a normal-sized vehicle and get 100 mpg under realistic driving conditions, and I'll be impressed. ('til then I'll be internet-snarky!)
> Heck, so are single farms. There's single farms bigger than a lot of countries.
That's not even a word.
Maybe, but if the new cross-pollination just confuses the issue rather than clarifying it, what's the point? "Suppose you have a bunch of flowers in a field, and they're planted so that the east-west direction…
