Most European salaries may be 1/2 the SF rates. But that is not a fair comparison. A Google engineer in Zurich, Switzerland makes almost as much as one in SF, at an also very high cost of living.

No, DNA does not have a half-life of 521 years. To give the correct citation: ''' By analysing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from 158 radiocarbon-dated bones of the extinct New Zealand moa, we confirm empirically a long-hypothesi

Sorry, I have now spent almost an hour reading 7 articles of yours and, from my point of view, none supports your claim. Framing implys for me that some other person publicly claims something although that is not really the case (i.e Telegr

Do you have an source for that claim. I am in Europe and have never heard that. The closest I know of is right wing groups using Telegramm for their Anti-Covid agitation.

While your premise is probably right, note that the 2% efficiency of photosynthesis is for sun light. Growth lamps such used here will certainly emit at wave length optimized to the absorption spectra of the crop.

the parent is concerned regarding the appearance of ADE (Antibody-dependent enhancement) during the creation of the SARS vaccine. While we cannot totally disregard ADE, I assume we should have seen it by now (and the Oxford trial was stoppe

Guessing probabilities is nuts. However, if they do not screw something up in production (which I regard a larger potential source of error than the vaccine itself) there won't be long term side-effects for most people. There were some

If you really need the precision, you should use the raw data. Why is 25.68 precise enough and not 25.682393. Especially, since it is given in the abstract, and not in some kind of in detail supplement. > If I am later trying to make a

But the "0g of sugar" in TicTac is something totally different. The difference between 25.68 and 26 is 2% of the total number (while the error of 40 is almost 160%). The difference between 0.01 and 0 is 100%.

I am sorry if I am pessimistic but as a person with a genetics background, I am very skeptical when a measure has an error bar (or variance in this case) that includes no-change as a plausible explaination, i.e 25.68%±40.42 And, for my tast

With large amounts of heat in your home, you can do cogeneration (combined heat and power). Heat some water via oxidation, produce electricity with the steam, collect the excess heat to keep the house warm. And you can do that all winter lo

I think even then, we do not know enough to make any such claim. When did the Waymo cars drive, during the day, in rush hour, at night??? Did they simulate the typical use of an average car or just drove around in the next suburb. And yeah

They are not, though similar schemes apply here, but I appreciate your effort for writing it down. Nevertheless, four percent of tax credit are not much if technology prices decrease by 30% or more. That does not mean that we totally reject
