The data of people taking longer to reach professorship should have included the average age of retirement of professors over the same period, which I would expect to also have shifted during this interval (and roughly by the same amount, a

It's a really old game by now, but I still sometimes play Medieval Total War 2. The siege battles are a lot of fun but perhaps a bit too easy. I hope the game gets a sequel someday.

I'm from Europe. I mostly clicked on the link to find out what a shooter drill is. I'm baffled by the article and the comments in this thread. Having to have drills for school shootings is apparently considered a normal part of li

An in space detector is (at least to my understanding) not that easy, as you need the surface of the Earth to interact with the neutrinos. These interactions result in muons, which allow to detect that there was a neutrino in the first plac

It's true that the programming model allows that, but underneath all threads within the warp will execute the same instructions. However if there is a branch, some threads can be predicated so their instructions have no effect. This is
