Borg still? Supposing you can say. Don’t reply if it’s still borg and you can’t.

I completely disagree but if the current regime lasts it’s inevitable. The burgeoning federal debt will be used politically (not operationally!) to force selling federally assets especially land and leases to the politically well connected.

Great program, but disappointing that the blind are invisible on the splash page. National parks are an extremely sensory rich environment. Birding by ear in particular is very popular.

I'm not sure. Dijkstra, despite his somewhat incorrect reputation as a curmudgeonly theorist who preferred pencils to computers, had a notable pragmatic streak. And, as a matter of pragmatism, he identified the close relationship betwe

The causation is in the past. Up until about 500 years ago there was little to no gene flow between a number of major population groups. Obviously there has been subsequent hybridization, but we can detect that too. The largest pre-1492 hyb

It's been a long time, but I feel like "de" is just a tad shorter than "deux." Might that be on account of my youthful exposure to French was in the Alsace? It was mostly older speakers.

I have about enough French to read the menu and order properly at a restaurant. Nevertheless these are really obvious to me. I'm not sure why that is, but I suppose it's probably due to having had some exposure to the language at

In the USA we used to just spray sludge, but that's largely been banned. A shame because it works really well and scales with population.

To get a good answer you need to clarify what you mean by a functional language. Do you simply mean a language that has first class functions, or do you mean something that's inspired by category theory, or something somewhere in betwe

I suspect many people who donate their remains don't read the fine print. I also wouldn't be shocked if there are shenanigans of various sorts taking place.

Human skulls too![1]. That site has been around for a long time. Naturally they won't buy from or sell to just anyone. Given the market price of a human skull you really don't want to encourage poaching. [1] https://www

I'm going to eat the internet point price for saying this, because it's important for you to know this if it applies to you. If you are a straight white man now is absolutely a terrible time to go on a sabbatical. The DEI initiati

Some of you might have just suffered from poor math education. I don't believe anyone capable of learning to program competently lacks the cognitive horsepower to do math competently with more or less equivalent ease. Many do however l

I asked my particle physicist buddy about this and he pointed me here[1]. It sounds like you're giving the "classical" answer, but it's an area of open discussion. He thinks it could conceivably emit energy as gravitatio

Is there some reason you're misgendering Theodore Andrea Cook? He's obviously masculine. Perhaps you're not aware that Andrea, like Shannon, Leslie, and many others, is also a masculine name?

What happens when an antimatter black hole collides with an equal mass matter black hole? Does the total mass convert to energy? If so what happens to the gravitational effects?

Don’t have to get anything out just need to accelerate the singularity.

by User23 3y ago
If it’s an antimatter black hole you can dump normal matter into it to release energy, assuming some way exists to turn that into useful acceleration.

On the plus side that marketing clearing will result in those with the most child care experience working in child care, which sounds nice. That said it’s somewhat amusing to me to pay for someone’s kids to be watched so others can pay said

My understanding is that merely proposing an illegal noncompete in California creates a cause to sue, but I’ve never heard of that being acted on.

We can’t actually prove much at all about the universe beyond that it exists (cogito ergo sum). Basically everything else is talking about some model and not the actual universe. The map still isn’t the territory no matter how much we might
