So conceiably someone could have sent a signal from the other part of the lense some billion years ago and we "just" need to figure out what to listen for.

The issue is that the original comment is just a baseless assertion that Boeing is having issues due to identity politics, and not anything of substance. Not liking those sort of unsubstantiated politically motivated claims is not "po

Maybe well-known, but: Ctrl-C exits interactive mode and goes back to normal mode. Easier to reach than Esc and I usually find rebinding/aliasing keys to be too much of a hassle

Throwing out grave insults because someone on the internet doesn't like your idea is a pretty good tell of the sort of character he is, even if it was 4 years ago. Adding to the list of reasons to dislike him, there's him trying t

None of your links details anything about how the perpetrators in those attacks were able to enter Israel due to being naturalized through marriage. In addition, the article notes that several supported of the law (at least one who's i

IANAL (and in the EU) - I believe you're not allowed to republish/redistribute the modified copy of the book. That said, your software is still legal for an end user to use on any book they own. Same thing here, if the modificatio

I think presenting it like this is misleading since the definition of homelessness is different per country. Breaking down the Swedish stats, of the reported 34000, the source says: "4 500 people were in acute homelessness, of which 28

If we think about the function of pain from an evolutionary perspective its basically to encourage, well, not doing whatever is causing you pain (e.g. touching sharp objects, standing close to a fire) or provide motivation to fight or flee

>who appoints the prime minister? Parliament votes on whoever the speaker nominates. If that person is tolerated (<50% of parliament votes against the nominee) they become prime minister. If the vote fails the speaker gets to nomina

I dont think this is necessarily due to 'cashless' as much as general computerization. Stuff like prices, article numbers and inventory are likely all digitized nowadays, so even if people could pay with cash I imagine they'd

So we're about to see a rise in abductions since criminals can demand the ransom in cryptocurrency?

Yes, because multiplication isn't actually repeated addition :)

Proof: The derivative of x^2 is x. x^2 = x * x = x + x ... + x (x times) Therefore, d/dx(x^2) = d/dx(x * x) = d/dx (x + x + ... + x (x times)) = d/dx(x) + d/dx(x) + ... + d/dx(x) (x times) = 1 + 1 + ... + 1 (x

My comment was referring to the 1.5 years Assange lived openly in London, while Sweden was trying to get him extradited. I don't believe they'd storm an embassy to get him, but a couple of men grabbing him from off the street woul

This is patently false. The collateral damage video was published on April 5, 2010. Assange entered the Ecuadorian embassy on 19th June 2012. The Interpol warrant for his arrest is dated 30 November, 2010.

>He did not run to the UK. The charges in Sweden had been dropped and he was allowed to leave the country. True - I'd forgotten that part. In any case - the case was reopened in November 2010, and Assange didn't enter the embas

He was in the UK for two years after leaving Sweden before he entered the embassy. Had he really been fearful of extradition to the US, why would he choose to run away to the country which (at least at the time) has the strongest ties to

> and things like acid attacks against women are decently common. Wait, what? Where's your source on this. Via google I can find references to one case from 1997 and one from 2002, and that's it. The idea that this would in any

This is from a friend with a similar problem who talked to a guy working with the feature, so YMMV: Supposedly, the feature works at least in part by analyzing your playlists and giving recommendations based on what the people with similar

I agree with you but also believe e-voting undermines the integrity of the democratic system as a whole, black-box or not. How it currently works where I live is that, at the start of election day, all the volunteers and officials who are w

If we're looking at the swedish game industry you also want to add Paradox Interactive and Dice to that list. Our general technology industry is "restructuring", with pretty big layoffs at the large companies. The same week t
