Rigorous explanation of bodies of water on the planet requires accounting for how water and ice deform the crust with their mass.

Scale is another big part of it. Over longer time periods resilience comes to mean something different. How many web sites from the 1990s are still up, accessible, and relevant?

Geoffrey West has some really good work on this. What happens most of the time is that new alternative technologies and ways come in and change the whole context around. That is, the old civilization really does collapse in a sense but a

The software industry is like an abusive partner. Always desperate to hire STEM talent, but not you. Knowing a large number of people with similar experiences my recommendation is to start up something. Some very limited and targeted app

The Haters usually take a microphone connected to a distortion box and scrape it around the surface of a textured plastic suitcase. The result is clearly white noise and easily differentiated from the all too common pink noise one tends to

That is false. The carbon footprint idea was designed to analyze what is going on and conceive of next steps. The argument you are making is clearly false because basic calculations show that industry and commerce have carbon footprints f

It seems like an alternative might be to use induction to warm a small heat exchange device, then blow air through it so that extremely hot air similar to a gas flame comes out. Probably some engineering would be needed, but not that much.

It seems like filters designed for regular cleaning could address this.

It might be interesting to investigate the larger dynamic context of this situation. Of Americans making $250k how many recently made more than that and have been forced to downsize?

Darwin was never a marketing ploy. Marketing had no idea what to do with it. The idea was to share the source for the highly usable BSD fork that Apple was working with at the time. Ultimately the effort failed because there were problem

Growth is strongly linked to population which is stabilizing or falling in many regions. It is quite possible that this line of inquiry is already irrelevant.

This is mostly an artifact. SF proper is a very small area in a metro area having around 8.5 million people. If you look carefully at a similar size urban core in other metro areas then you will see similar results.

The densities are completely different and result in different patterns of use. Bird feeders distribute large amounts of food from a small space. Large flocks of different types of birds gather at feeders and may fight for access. There

That really speaks to me. Wesley Crusher seemed like baggage until later when he had some issues for the writers to really dig into and work with. Interesting how the character's trajectory on the show as a gifted child later gone as

Yes, this is more complicated than my experience had revealed. My references came from Chinese immigrants. Their main "biodynamic" practice might be an odd translation of a Chinese term. Mostly that involves using compost teas

Any sexual contact is going to result in a high chance for transmission. Both gay men and lesbian women prefer oral sex. This is well studied but not widely known because it goes against popular ideas of what counts as sex.

This is really sloppy. Traditional biodynamic agriculture has hundreds of years of history and does not have spiritual or mystical perspectives but is largely focused around preparations of what is usually called "compost tea" wh

This proposal seems weak and likely to backfire. The biggest problem with housing is not enough being built where it is needed. There is no particular lack of clever financing so that part really doesn't bring much to bear on the pro

They can't force owners to remove the houses directly, but they could potentially make owners liable for expected clean up. That could indirectly get owners to take the situation more seriously.

Hard to say, but it has always been like that. Housing prices are extremely sticky. With corrections most of the work ends up being done by inflation while prices stagnate. One peculiar advantage to the burst of inflation is that it coul

Sort of, but it is more like echoes. In the first and possibly most well known case the previously Prussian areas of Poland had all of the ethnic Germans forcibly removed. Because of this abrupt and extreme change there must be something

There is evidence that Chinese rail operators have deliberately hidden accidents and their costs. That makes Chinese rail transport extremely difficult to compare to American rail transport especially when the specific subject is the accum

Using Reddit as an example of a good user interface is going to turn some people off. Arguably Reddit is an example of everything that goes wrong here. The interface is less informative and usable than it used to be so that it can get in

It is interesting how the Musk approach of setting extreme goals and building powerful teams to reach them ends up assembling organizations that are completely different from what Bezos puts together.
