The problem for me is not the SEO, but the vast AI blather, which is virtually content-free. You need a complete rewrite by an experienced human. After reading and reading, all I found was subjective comments about how great all the feature

Exactly. It only takes a couple of decades for nature to reforest, which is an eyeblink, actually. And only a couple more decades to return to mature forest. No humans or projects needed. There is a lot more forest in New England (USA) now,

From an article cited in the OP [0], More than 95% of all proteins located in the mitochondrial compartments are encoded by the nuclear DNA, synthesized in cytoplasmic ribosomes and imported into mitochondria. These include factors that re

Thanks for taking the time to write this up! My own interests are largely related to understanding EM physics and technology - Ham radio provided the conduit, pun intended.

Without the new software, there is no boost to external sound in transparency mode, so they are not useful as hearing aids. I’m looking forward to testing the new release.

In my experience (average teeth), dental insurance doesn't pay out enough to cover the premiums, and it's not worth the bother.

A massive black hole has torn apart one star and is now using that stellar wreckage to pummel another star or smaller black hole that used to be in the clear. Maximum hype, complete with artist's concepts. It's hard to believe

Well, you put on your furs and go hunting. Tracking is easier in the snow. Or you stay in your shelter and eat some jerky. And, I'm not being glib - life was simple and you did what I said.
