I don't think that anyone before, in or after Roman times would run gold wire like that through the holes. Why scratch up the work? Why abrade away gold flakes? Is there gold residue on the artifacts? It would've been noted.

Wow. The companies I've worked at only kept old emails if there was a litigation hold. Otherwise, the email retention policy was enforced. It seems to me a double edged sword that slightly favors the deleter. I think that you will find

Most Fortune 500 companies have (I am extrapolating wildly here since I haven't worked at all of them) email retention policies that specify that emails will not be kept past a certain time after reception. So when an opposing lawyer r

What if this is the basis of "magic"? The secret power of curses that were burnt or cast into a lake or cave that "worked" by diminishing the anger in the caster rather than cursing the target.

"The Library at Mount Char" by Scott Hawkins. His first novel. Very original, not quite sci-fi, not quite fantasy. Some rough edges. Excellent.

OK. Assume that the evidence is strong and true. That still doesn't mean that there's been continuous habitation. It could be evidence of a failed colonization followed by crickets.

Seems like someone may have the pleasure of becoming interested in the matter and going further. Perhaps they may resurrect Maledicta, the journal of verbal aggression. See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maledicta . I

Everyone has known that the instant Russia felt threatened that the dam would (probably) be destroyed. The consequences are horrible for Ukraine but not so much for Russia. They have known that the counter offensive would be coming. Why not

Taiwan? Looking at the board, seeing what's happening in the west, I would keep an eye on the level of loss the Russians are willing to endure before probable tactical nuke usage. Just before that point, I would look to China's no

Shouldn't the EU physically destroy the Nord Stream 1 and 2 terminals and sever the pipelines at sea so that they become useless? Isn't Putin betting that the gas will flow again with all that that implies?

Why can't this be repurposed as a lung cleanse? I imagine that heavy smokers' lungs (or coal miners') could benefit from a wash and rinse, perhaps with some vibration assistance. With a medical team standing by to resuscitate

Well, this is exactly what it is for. Neither LaTeX nor Texmacs help out in the research phase. They are document preparation systems (although Texmacs could be used as a front end to some CAS's)

TeXmacs has nothing to do with either Emacs or TeX. It's a standalone wysiwyg editor, like MS Word or OO Writer.

I don't understand why we insist on tokens if we have blockchains. A blockchain renders tokens, whether virtual or physical, obsolete by replacing them with a simple scalar associated with an account.
