It VERY unlikely that there were two separate events of transmission of two different variants of SARS-CoV2 virus. It looks like a) virus originated somewhere else and China was just a good place for virus to spread, b) it was two separate

In this case, exchange is not fair, it's a scam, while in case of GPL, exchange is fair (code for code), so it's a valid open contract. You use my code, I use your.

I assume, your point is that US government doesn't represent Chinese immigrants, right? This is true. Why this is a problem and what solution to the problem you propose?

When stretched, the length of the rope will be two straight lines plus part of the circle. The length of the segment can be calculated using a formula for horizon. Then we can create an equation: (s arc distance to horizon for h)*2 + delta

We need to understand the nuclei. The only way to do that is to create macro-scale working models of nuclei, to see what happens inside them. The «walking droplet» kind of experiment is a step in the right direction. These experiments are m

We lost the previous war with RF, then paid a huge price for that in 1932-1934. 7 million adults (this number is accepted by RF in 2008) and 23 million children (this number is not accepted by RF) were murdered by hunger during «Holodomor».

200k reservists cannot join Ukrainian army because of lack of equipment and money. I have no truck, for example, so I cannot move a few tonnes of communication equipment rapidly, so my combat-readiness is low.
