I would expect the president of the united states to have much more information available to him than the rest of the country. IIRC, Trump didn't start blaming China until China started blaming the USA for the spread during the militar

During the day, can you see polaris? If you only have the sun as a reference you will need a 2nd reference to know where you are. Magnetic north would be easily available. For celestial objects, The math is rather simple. It is the intersec

The sun is only 1 point of reference. You would want at least 3 to know exactly where you are. I suppose a built in compass would be a 2nd. With two points that should narrow down the position to two possible locations (with rather large un

I would assume a place like that would have security 24/7. 24×7/40=4.2 Security Guards. It's not much more than 1 watching cameras and 3 rovers.

Interesting. So was this a supplement to math learned at school or was it the primary math? I was expecting you to name dimensions or one if the other programs they offer.

The efficiency of gas is more than the btu of gas to equivalent electric. Gas produces pollutants that must be removed from the house. The higher exhaust rate will remove more conditioned air than an equivalent electric would.

This will work for as long as the world has enough oil to meet demand. Eventually as oil becomes a more scarce resource, someone will explore for oil there.

An obese person has 2x the probability of developing type 2 as a person of normal weight. Regardless of obesity, Type 2 can be managed with a low carb diet.

I see no need to subsidize their choices. Its not shitting on them, its just not enabling them. The vast majority of type 2 diabetics have a BMI >25. It is a user preventable disease. If for some reason they still have diabetes with a BM

I would support it being free for Type 1 diabetics. They had no say in their genetic lottery. Type 2 can pay for it themselves. Their condition was caused by themselves.

You can always refuse the NJP and demand a court martial. In most cases, it's an extremely bad idea. As you go up the chain, more severe punishment can be applied. I have seen it work with one pissed off LCpl. The officer decided to ba

The big propaganda channels are google, facebook, reddit, twitter, apple. They severely limited free speech and only promoted the official narrative. By making it harder to find legitimate opposition sources, people have turned to less legi

Its not about compensation. The companies themselves have less skin in the game. Did they lower their internal standards because they now have less to lose? edit: It doesn't matter if the vaccine manufacturers lowered their standards.

The size of the sample depends on how rare of an event that is being studied. For something that happens 80% of the time, 300 is a very reasonable number. Something that happens 1/1000 or 999/1000 would need a much larger sample s

Not exactly equal. If two employees work different shifts, most of those issues could be solved by not having separate resources for each employee.

I would think most people know where their local theater is. It's probably people searching to see what is playing and times.
