I use it all the time! I do really messy stuff locally, and then I rebase to organize it into commits that tell a story, which makes it easier for reviewers (and archaeologists, such as me in 5 months) to understand. Most common pattern: Co

Well... with sea level rise, and changing pressure due to ice sheets melting (crust rebound), I would expect seismic and volcanic activity. Probably more of a polar thing, though?

There's a metric called something like "estimated years of life lost" based on mortality rate by age and life expectancy, but you'd also want to factor in individual life expectancy—a lot of the people dying from this

Kind of weird title. Of all the private air forces, one has to be the most advanced. And it will be owned by somebody . I guess the title is saying that it's specifically a male adult?

They can't just say "hey, we're publishing this, and this is now prior art" so no one can patent it in the future? (Is this a difference between the US and EU patent systems?)

2% means 1 in 50 people. How many people do you know? How about people who are a friend of a friend? What is that number divided by 50? In all likelihood, within a year, several people you know will die of covid-19. (Also note that the effe
