Those of us that have been around quite a while have seen consistent ‘rapid progress’ in technology and automation over the last 30+ years. This isn’t the first time there’s a new world changing technology.

('18 alum) Yeah I agree. We even had internal-only versions of OCW with more recent recordings and more material. Although I agree that professors were not accessible, and TAs were often not that helpful. But, I never felt like I didn&

the US has been investigating these ideas since early in the cold war. It started as a means of mass destruction (could we silently reduce solar radiation over russia and cause their crops to fail?), but really could be a means to cool down

Woah, every new discovery really makes Graham Hancock seem a bit less crazy. 476,000 years is a HUGE jump. They called him crazy for thinking that the Egyptians had structures 12,000 years ago.

Having grown up in the northern panhandle, you really have to look at is a tri state area. PA, OH, and WV. It’s extremely distinct from the rest of WV below the mason dixon line. The original capital of WV was actually Wheeling, in the nort

I can't imagine why he wouldn't flee. If i was committing ~9 figures worth of fraud, I would have huge stashes of 1oz gold bars buried in countries without extradition like Vietnam and venezuela. He seems like he had no exit plan

I've never felt that way at the 3 tech companies I've worked at. More to the contrary, I'd want the CEO or CTO to know me, who i am, and what I've done.

hmm, but no mention of orally consumed cannabinoids, or vaped cannabinoids (dry herb or concentrate). I feel like those are the more interesting vehicles to research for cannabis. Its been fairly well established that smoking cannabis (comb

My assumption is that foo fighters are a different but related phenomena. Foo fighters were likely not weather, but a product of the aircraft themselves. The most likely theory I've seen for foo fighters, is that the massive propellers
