Someone has run an experiment, and in this experiment they created a large amount of evidence that seems to say that quite an important particle in particle physics weighs something slightly different from what we thought it should. This is

I had a completely different interpretation to everyone else. I read it as the astrologer doubling down on his assertion despite the evidence staring him in the face. The guy can't have kids, so he should look after the ones he has! (E

The Bridgerton example is silly and not comparable. His character is barely in the other books, so of course he's not in the other seasons. It's like asking why Professor Quirrell isn't in the second Harry Potter film.

Worth noting that N26 was touted for a while as a grim reaper that would come to the UK with its vast capitalisation (at the time about 2-3x as a much as any UK mobile bank) and blow Monzo and Revolut away. A good lesson that a well-funded

You would be hard pressed to elucidate a biological causation there.

Cars and air-con are the main offenders there, right?

Incidentally what doesn't Monese ( https://monese.com/business ) have that you need? Is it the end-of-year statement?

The analogy I've heard for early detection of neurodegeneration is that it turns the condition from terminal to chronic. This is similar to how late detection of HIV usually means AIDS and death, now it means a manageable condition, bu

I remember having band practice at our drummer's house when I was younger. The drummers mother and our vocalist knew each other. To reach the high notes, she said to him, you have to "sing higher" and your voice will naturall

Amazon Echo and Google Home are chatbots, but with a voice interface. They seem relatively well accepted. Your thoughts?

I don't think that's odd at all. We should be doing away with our reverence for this or that technology. Ultimately if there's no token/coin involved, it's none of our business.

How does the unit economics work here? To my understanding, BTC (even after SegWit) has non-negligible transaction fees. Is this site just eating into VC money to make things feeless?

How do they plan on contacting the employees en masse if the computer is off?

I wouldn't muddy the waters here with talk of Monzo. Most chip reader cards don't do what Monzo does in terms of real-time backend transaction verification, that's a generation further than the stuff being rolled out in the U

It's always tempting to think about the body in terms of the technological concepts of the age. It's not automatically wrong, but there's nothing special about this particular era of computing that would mean we're worki

From the article: >It was the biggest biotech IPO ever in the U.S., raising $360 million. It has largely held up, too. Axovant’s shares, which opened at $15, currently trade around $13.25. and further down: > When Axovant went public,

They are now, but the uninformed reader can't assume that that's static throughout history. There will have been some point where that became fully true, some point where it wasn't, and some continuous function of time defini
