South Ameria has been using bio ethanol as a fuel for a while now, it's cheaper and uses crops, there are projects to bring that to North Amerixa and the rest of the world!

For reference, the dish used on Voyager-1 is 12ft in diameter, and I'm fairly certain that's what's being picked up, it's very impressive, being that absurdly far away.

Yes! I'm well aware of the replication crisis. While this is valid, this shouldn't make us paranoid of all papers. If it's a paper out of your expertise, it's unlikely that you would be able to catch problems with it tha

Why are they exhausting? While you seem well versed in the subject, this was quite enlightening to me, as a non expert.

Sticking to what you want to understand - for example, when reading a paper, you don't necessarily need to read the methodology, especially if it's out of your field. Read the abstract and the conclusion, identify any part of it t

Sure - when I skim articles, I often don't read all of it and stick to what I'm interested in - I'd argue that even takes less time than chatting with chat-gpt and fact checking it (Edit: - and you get sources right away with

I mean did you read the discussion he had with the language model? Does it clarify anything better than you would get by skimming wikipedia? I have not found these explanations sufficient, while I have done a bit of chemistry and physics I

Feels like there's something interesting in there but the article is much too involved - we're talking about the dynamics of the failure of communication about a comment about the spacex explosion on Twitter. maybe if it were dist

I'm realising that they are open to people reporting dark skies near them, and even offer a way to so a dark sky census. The last time I saw the milky way, I was in a cheap campsite near the ocean in Ireland, which (of course) isn&#x27

You can look around or call local park services, I'm seeing that Mont-Megantic, an observatory with federally peotected sky, isn't on their map. I'll look for a canadian ressource (for myself too!) Edit: I'm wrong, Mont-

I highly recommend looking for a protected night sky zone near you and going to see it at least once - it really is nothing that pictures can translate! https://www.darksky.org/our-work/conservation/idsp/finde

Yeah it's a bit flimsy it seems, without seeing the paper - thanks!

Looking at it quickly it seems that 819 might be the number that lets the multiplier be as small as possible, since they are saying that all planets fit in a 45 year timeline I assume all mutipliers are smaller than 45..maybe that's th

Yeah I'm on a Pixel 2 still and it's snappy as ever, I would see no improvement at all by buying this year's flagship. I'm sorry to hear other androids aren't the same.

Because they had found a prior mention of a 819 day period in relation to calendars, but didn't make the link at the time (from my understanding of the paper)

You remind me that I wanted to book an airBnB in one of the parks near me, they have an observatory and as such the sky is legally required to be untainted - I haven't seen the milky way in almost 10 years, I can't imagine seeing

Very cool! I looked into it a little bit, a good option depending on your threat model is to simply leave it in a faraday container (read: aluminum foil envelope - or the more sophisticated stuff) when you don't want it to be visible.

It seems incredibly clever - and I realise that I assumed they weren't aware of most planets since they're hard to see today, but I'm sure they were very noteworthy event in the pristine sky they were looking at.

Could you describe my strong negative bias? I have worries that come to mind - just like people were worried that the atom bomb would burn the atmosphere - and I think they are fair. I have a hard time understanding your point - not a jab,
