The problem with the logic, that a geopolitical adversary shouldn't control a social media company, is that our domestic political system has, as of late, acted quite adversarial to its own population. For that reason, it's not cl

For me Linux is so much better a user experience due to the lack of bloat in the operating system. Microsoft seems to be getting more and more intrusive with its data collection, in addition. Furthermore, being a foreign government that has

I am just comparing the potential revenue from taxation to the overall size of government spending via the deficit. I don't really understand what you are saying with this comment. Do you think government spending can be unbounded? Why

if you taxed Elon Musk, Warren Buffet, and Bill Gates at 100% including all their wealth, assets, you would barely reduce the US deficit in one year. You would also be shit out of luck in the next year. I'm sick of the thought process

Hospital costs are rising which is putting them out of business, which causes mergers and takeovers by organizations that specialize in extracting profit out of hospital services. These organizations do this by reducing costs by lowering nu

When I joined the physics major at college, I didn't really know what was taught in the physics field. I was disappointed when it wasn't about internal combustion engines and nuclear reactors.

dark energy increases the distance between objects, adding to the system's energy by increasing the gravitational potential energy. Without the contribution from dark energy, after several cycles the pull from the iron atoms would caus

it is, in the negative direction though. So increasing the distance increases the potential energy by making -1/r closer to zero.

by mjfl 3y ago
The extra energy comes from the increase in gravitational potential energy between objects. The accelerating increase in this potential energy implies the total energy of the universe is increasing. I’m not talking about harvesting dark ene

It is very fortunate that the universe is expanding. This provides a virtually unlimited source of energy.

It probably went both ways to some extent. But the Neanderthal population was much smaller, and probably martially weaker, as they were clearly playing a losing evolutionary strategy.

It doesn't follow that if human males stole Neanderthal wives sometime in the past, that you would necessarily see Neanderthal mitochondrial DNA in present populations. Consider a serial 'wife-stealing' human culture. One g

they weren't necessarily killed off, rather blended into the human population through conquest and wife-stealing and the resulting interbreeding.

another interesting fact is that modern Europeans are descended from 4 distinct populations which were as genetically distant from each other as modern Europeans are from Asians: Western hunter gatherers, anatolian farmers, eastern hunter g
