The most significant security response to the novel parts of the 9/11 attacks was done by the passengers on flight 93. It took an hour and seventeen minutes for them to get the news and adapt the strategy to hijackings.

Yes similar test scores, for the GPA it might depend on how much we trust the scoring from the good school. I was imagining that the good school presented more and better information, (perhaps more at the style and pacing of a good college

Ok. If we take that definition, is there any reason a test shouldn't consider whether a student had a very good school and learned half of what they were given, or a very poor school and learned everything they were exposed to? (a cont

That is incorrect. What would "well prepared" mean here anyway?

An SAT score is an assessment of how well you will do in college. It's not something you can earn or deserve. If someone does less well than you but came from a much worse school district, why shouldn't a predictor take that into

Anecdotes are weak as data. One-off instructions are good, and presumably repeatable.

I don't know, but it is possible that the GW encodes something that increases once a century or faster. There is definitely more information in two letters than two digits.

Things change once we've found the rest of a tea set in various orbits. There may not be strong direct evidence but it's no longer a silly conjecture, it's the kind of thing that we find. So those other examples mean you do h

When you trust the code more than the courts. All courts have bugs. Your trust or distrust may be unfounded, but I think that's the biggest reason.

More light is absorbed at the bottom than at the top. This energy is already doing work as weather. If the air under the chimney needs to be warmer than the air beside it,this could be achieved with mirrors or a broad greenhouse.

This is absolutely not a free energy device. It may be bunk, but it is an attempt at a heat engine. Or rather, an attempt to make an existing heat engine more efficient/ faster/ controlled. There is outside energy and it is alread

If the simulation is reasonably predictive and the spoils of war not too severe then the loser won't start the war because they would npt expect to gain enough. This is what democracy is, a coarse estimate of who has the most soldiers.

But now you're hypothesizing Aliens + some extremely convenient energy source. In order to justify ignoring all the burning stars, it needs to be easier to tap than solar and much much more energy than all the stars will ever generate.

Is there a github? I thought this was closed source, and the lack of updates made me think it might never get released even as a commercial engine or just a game. I'd love to just try these demos.

Millenials didn't invent video game ratings, movie ratings, the seven 'dirty' words, the hays code, or blacklists. If your generation targets something that's actually harmful, you're ahead of the game. Consider a s

This is also Direct Action, where what you're doing is solving or mitigating the problem and so you want to keep doing it as long as you can.

Even if there is a limit to the size of a mind, there is not a limit to the number or speed. An atomic scenario would be a billion human level intelligences running a hundred times faster.
