And these super-Earths have much stronger gravity. And as we all know superman's strength and ability to leap tall buildings was due to the fact that he was from a planet with stronger gravity. As the character changed over time he gained t

The man achieved great things, specifically the way in which he solved the problem is phenomenal. It reveals not a just a great mind, but a great character. Not to be glib, but you'd look for something like that in a founder. Except the he

I read this as Google basically giving up on CAPTCHA. Let me explain. For a while google had one of the hardest CAPTCHAs but bots just keep getting better, and they were cracking it more and more often. But you can't just make the CAPTCHA e

This is good but the one I'm looking for was more like comic. With examples of how say police monopolize the spectrum for emergencies now,and how they could still get priority in a more dynamic system.

I will give 1000 tasty internet cookies to anyone who can find a short comic/pamphlet which explains how the spectrum is regulated and how it could be greatly improved. It was a great and simple explanation with pictures, but google fails m

Bullshit. I'm east European, I know what alcohol as a major part of the social fabric looks like. But I quite drinking a long time ago. And it hasn't hurt my social fabric at all. Not in eastern Europe not in America, not anywhere. There is

Unlikely. Buffett's intuition that the deal for Barclays to buy ALL of Lehman is fishy, was probably spot on. And more information would not have changed his mind, and the insurance he might have offered to Barclays would probably have been

The title is politically loaded. There's something that article is trying to say vis-a-vis government subsidies and free trade, but it never quite materializes, at least I couldn't understand it. But I had no trouble understanding the polit

Sure. But evolution prefers to reuse rather then innovate, this can often lead to interesting limits. For example, we still have a blind spot where the optic nerve connects to the retina, in all this time we have not evolved a blind spot fr

It's not rare, it's not new, but it has great pictures, and will results in lots of sweet social news site karma for any submitter. Thus it makes the rounds, over and over again.

I'm not sure if we have it backwards, but the article definitely oversimplifies it. It also makes some embarrassing points for ephasis, plants using antioxidants as defenses, green tea might be, but I doubt many fruits are NOT meant to be e
