It is possible to get an allergy to beef from a tick bite. For an allergy though, one would expect the symptoms to return as soon as normal diet is resumed.

Sculpting in Blender is already pretty good, but there is also a work-in-progress sculpt branch that should make it even more of a competitor to ZBrush, once it's merged in. https://code.blender.org/2019/06/sc

Saying that it happened before the Big Bang is super misleading. Most readers would assume that the inflationary period is part of the Big Bang.

There are non-convex shapes that don't have undercuts. I think convexity implies that you don't have undercuts, though.

On the other hand, Rust doesn't let you use an `Option<T>` as if it was a `T`, so you can't just forget to check. And most of your code won't be using Option, it's only used right where it's needed.

Even Socrates was complaining about the next generation: "The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not

The whole diamond ring thing is basically the result of a really effective advertising campaign. It's definitely dumb to get a diamond ring when you can get a much more beautiful, intricate ring for significantly cheaper.

Modern Javascript standards have incorporated a lot of things that have started their life in jQuery. What advantages does jQuery still have?

As far as astronomers can tell, there is very little antimatter in the observable universe (If there was more, we'd see it anihilating with matter more).

Rust will also crash if you use the indexing operator and go out of bounds. For arrays, you can also use the .get(index) method which returns an Option<&T> instead of &T, so it doesn't have to crash. For most things, iter

Gold is very resistant to any sort of oxidation (the oxides are less stable than the metal), but of course using gold for a rocket wouldn't be very practical.

Aluminium is the prime example of a material that's really worth recycling. Production of aluminium involves both high temperatures (950 to 980 degrees Celsius) and a rather large amount of electricity. Recycling just involves melting

I would have included Picat and Kitten. Picat is a descendant of Prolog that has some rather nice differences in semantics. Kitten is a statically-typed concatenative language.

The interesting thing is that you can't bias a real coin (unless it's allowed to bounce around after falling). As long as you catch the coin after flipping, you're going to get 50/50 chances, no matter how the coin is we

Brushing with an abrasive does make a significant difference. The fluoride also has a significant effect on reducing tooth decay. The other parts aren't too important (flavour and mouthfeel). You can definitely get away with using othe

You could try to transition to the sway wayland compositor (which is largely compatible with i3wm) or maybe to https://github.com/letoram/arcan which is a lot more programmable than sway

It can also be done with plants in the nightshade family. So, for example, you can transplant the branches from a tomato plant onto a potato plant.

On the surface of the Moon, there is no oxygen and the rocks are bombarded by UV and other forms of radiation. That's got to lead to some interesting chemical reactions.

It feels like we're at a point where simply dropping emissions down to 0 wouldn't be enough, we need to outright start pulling CO2 out of the atmosphere and have negative emissions. Given the way politics is right now, catastrophe

In Rust you are forced to specify the type for functions and consts/statics, there isn't any option for inference there.

Europe has been a brewing pot for disease for a really long time. Lots of people and animals crammed together in big cities, without much sanitation. Lots of opportunities for diseases to jump from animals to humans, and to also evolve with

There are a bunch of videos on youtube showing off antibubbles. Perhaps it'd be easier to recreate them after watching one.

So you end up stuck with languages like Ada, where the language can prove the correctness of your code (or rather, that your code follows the specification)?

I actually ended up writing a Rust program to change screen brightness through /proc myself. Previously, I used a Python script. Understandably, the Rust program is very significantly faster than Python, and I was surprised by the diff
