I dont think this is true. direct sunlight can be many shades of white. It differs in the morning and the evening and it is mostly yellow. The yellowness of the sunshine is a direct result of raleigh scattering and other atmospheric effect

No it does not. You can't even buy a house if you are a Dene that does not live/work in that city. You can buy a house and live there. You are free to do so, but you are not allowed to buy a house to rent it out. It is typical Eur

Canada's engineering market isn't impressive because it doesn't have the American DOD spending behind it. There are countries that are quite impressive for their software engineering compared to the states and population. Swe

actually, statistics prove you wrong. Cuba pays surgeons roughly the same as streetcleaners but they have twice the amount of specualists per 100.000, compared to the united states (1). If you look at countries that have (almost) free educa

I predicted a strong bullmarket in stocks, crypto and gold. Stocks and crypto turned out to be true, but I invested too much in gold. So that was an unpleasant surprise. I predicted that corona wouldn't do much for environmental concer

They were attacking fishing boats (they didn't have a navy because there was no real government, so these attackers were pirates). The Somali pirates should get more respect from most hardliners. This is basically people grabbing guns

I think you are both right: I think the act of stealing is the act of taking something (an idea, an object) without permission from someone else. It doesn't matter how much this "something" costs to make in time, money or eff

Actually, there are top of the line athletes with a vegan diet. It's not very popular, but that is probably because being vegan is not popular. The B12 source argument has recently been solved as well. Most animals source their B12 fr

I disagree with you. Some coins like tezos and cardano or a similar coin will be a creative destructive force for many institutions. They allow for truly decentralized authority. Think passports without an issuing country. Think money witho

This. And also: if they don't exist. Open a new one! There is no law against it. And we would stand shoulders to shoulder if and when the government would ever propose such a law. But until that time, stop whining.
