The 1% Is 1.5 millions iff the 100% is 150 millions, which is what population exactly?

hydro is really not that green: salmons are losing their spawning runs for an example in your area. Also not renewable, because dams get filled with sediment and lose capacity over time.

I don't think OP was talking about high-voltage lines: in most of Europe high voltage is way higher than most vegetation and within cities lines run underground.

Then why do I love salad with orange sections and smoked herring... possibly fennel too.

1,000 is really really low. Could it be something to do with your socket position and how they dissipate heat?

I had a very positive experience with a t480s (also switching from mac), though I use linux... The hardware feels much better for my needs than a mac: way better keyboard, matte screen and all the ports you'd expect including ethernet.

It's sourcing as in finding the source (where the herd was), as opposed to using some antique ivory for repairing a piano.

Nitpick: federal only applies to countries like the US or Germany, which are federations, I think the term you were looking for is national. As to your other claim I'm not so sure I agree with you: Italy has decriminalized all drug use

I disagree: my basis makes it easier to answer the question of how much faster can you go by exerting the same power. The point being that when you are already close to maximal efficiency the gains are very marginal.

Given a conventional chain can be up to 98% efficient then the maximum increase in efficiency is 1/.98 - 1 = 2.04%

Probably a better analogy would be a bat is not a type of bird.

I think it's pretty much the same in the US, even though it's sometimes less apparent. Look up the Reclamation Act of 1902: most of the West would not be cultivated without the huge public investment in irrigation which have never

It's not entirely clear how many generations this take and whether breeding with the wild population is involved though. This would be extremely fascinating if we knew this to be entirely epigenetic...

When I saw worms in the title I thought there was going to be something about self-avoiding random walks, but than again that should be snake, not worms.

Fibonacci died in 1242, so 13th century not 15th.

Ephesus and Bergama are great, but a lot of what's left is Roman. Paestum and the temple valley in Agrigento in southern Italy are very well preserved and mostly Greek.

I think there is a spectrum, the US being a country of immigrants is on one extreme, Italy having been several different independent states up to 160 years ago and having many different climates and cultures is on the other. While it's

You are probably used to this rotation just because you grew up in the US. As someone who has grown up in Italy we don't think about food this way, not even regionally. I.e. don't expect a great risotto in Naples or a decent carbo

You might be right morally, but in a lot of countries it is still the case that 'not having sex with other people' is a compulsory clause of the marriage contract. So legally it's a little bit murkier. People have been advoca

The median might have done well, but we know for a fact that inequality has risen dramatically in the past 40 years, mostly as an effect of big tax cuts to the wealthy. I'd be interested in seeing an analysis dividing the population in
