The reason this worked is, that the back-action of the moon on the sun is very insignificant. For a "real" chaotic three-body system, you need three bodies that interact with each other on comparable scales.

An emergency room physician once told me, they used to call the first sunny days of spring "Nierenwetter" ("kidney weather").

From the artcile: "The numbers were small — 13 metformin-exposed boys were born with genital defects. But after the researchers adjusted for factors including parental ages and maternal smoking status, they found a 3.39-fold rise in th

They're advocating for "drastically cutting the red tape", which could certainly influence one side of these inequalities quite strongly.

Not all food is done once it reaches the desired temperature. A lot of food, e.g. tough meats, need to stay above a certain temperature for a long time until they're done.

No, if you need 50k for electricity, it does not matter how much money you put into the mining rig, you're better off buying 40k bitcoin directly.

Only the generator is at the bottom, the power still comes from the upper part of the structure and is transferred mechanically, I would assume.

But you can see that explosive growth equally well in the per capita numbers. The total number is just the per capita rate multiplied by a different number in every country, so there are very few occasions where it is useful to choose it ov

The headline seems to be plainly wrong. It's an interstellar comet that supposedly has not had a close encounter with another star. But it certainly is not the "first interstellar comet to have visited our solar system", or d

Cheap HDMI cables typically leak image information quite nicely. With the right equipment, it's really easy to get a decent resolution image of the radiation picked up from an HDMI cable even over tens of meters.

From your comment I would conclude that is not exactly the same mechanism. For the moebius printing, the pages are flipped individually while the stack of records is flipped as a whole.

It does make sense. The price of BTC in USD is roughly the same on every exchange. If some exchanges allow USD and USDT interchangeably, the BTC price can be driven up by trades that are conducted in USDT. The price on Coinbase will adapt t

Trapping sauce, ok. But heat exchange? Why would you need optimal heat exchange? And why should a complex shape such as this have better heat exchange than an "unrolled" plane like, e.g. Tagliatelle?

It did not come directly from bats to humans, there was another intermediate host species. We don't know which, pangolins possibly, or minks or some other species, probably in closer contact to humans than bats.

That's a bullshit measure! What number of people make more than an arbitrary threshold value does not say anything. Maybe all these people made $90,000 seven years ago, and $100,000 is just the new $90,000 in 2017. It's a large or

To be fair, her son worked in the silicon valley office in a very junior position at the time. That's very far removed from the German public sector consulting. She has seven well educated children, they have to work somewhere...

What did her son have to do with anything? And quite frankly, even though the optics were probably not very good, I don't know of any corruption on the part of Ursula von der Leyen that was conclusively shown.

Well, I find it hard to believe that €200 - €300 should be "full". That can most certainly not cover the full cost for child care, so there's probably still a significant subsidy by the state even for high earners.

300kw/h is a nonsensical unit in this case. kw*h would be energy, but kw alone would be the proper unit to compare to the 3000hp drive shaft.

From an economists point of view, the thing to compare to would be cost per prevented death. I don't have a current estimate for that, but it is presumably much lower.

No, wait, compared quarter to quarter it really did decrease by 32.9%. The 9.5% is what would be missing if suddenly everything went back to normal. Which it won't.
