He has a bunch of kids. Reports suggests he cares at least a bit about them. The people around him might care too. It's not like in old Egypt where the servants were burried with the pharaon.

Ceramic knifes are much better at cutting soft stuff than metal knifes. So why are there no ceramic blade razors?

But that would only make sense if the bacteria were stacked on top of each other. Otherwise there is plenty of space under the sun, even in water.

The color of noon sun light on earth is literally the definition of white balance (6500K). So it doesn't appear yellow, unless you talk about sunset.

Something related. In classical computers you can do: X = 4 X = 5 In quantum computers this sequence of operations is impossible, because the program needs to respect unitarity and need to be able to be undone/run backwards. B
