Main points are that brain takes ~20% of body's Base Metabolic Rate, and that active thinking takes 5% more than BMR. Whole body context: - Base Metabolic Rate (awake): ~1.0-1.1 kcal/kg/hr - Deep Sleep Metabolic Rate: 0.8

It's much bigger than just the JFK files. Just announced, House Oversight Committee led by Rep. Luna is forming a taskforce to uncover secrets of JFK/RFK/MLK, UFOs/UAPs/USOs, Epstein, Covid Origins & 9/11 -

Note, had the same convo with ChatG and it blew right by the O word, and commented that it's nice to have an old recipe to work on over time.

I tried voice chat. It's very good, except for the politics We started talking about my plans for the day, and I said I was making chili. G asked if I have a recipe or if I needed one. I said, I started with Obama's recipe many

Not clear from the linked article. Did you see something else? NPP is probably increasing as it's been observed for years now that the earth is net greening in response to rising CO2

thanks. Also forgot to note size difference between those airports.. DEN is #4 in the US with 38M passenger boardings/year, PDX #33 with 8M. So maybe 4x larger https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_busiest_ai

Based on the discussion in the descendent thread with morsch, it seems like the runways are the real story, at 1000x the mass of the airport roof. But concrete is not so CO2 intensive. Lumber has a +1.6 sequestration factor of CO2 emitted

I found a more authoritative reference, from the Institute of Structural Engineers, which appears to be a major international organization [ISE]. The Embodied Carbon figure they use is 1.64kgCO2/kg timber as a rule of thumb [ISE-EC], a

Just finished the full edit.. check it out. If the full airport is made out of wood, seems like it's getting towards plausible, or at least not obviously wrong Most uncertainty is how much mass the ceiling is compared to rest of airpo

Interesting point! It looks like Skanska is GC for the Project, and cites it as a 9 acre (!) lumber roofing system[SK], and that it uses 3.5M board foot of Douglas Fir Project Lumber[PL]. Douglas Fir is 3.2 pounds per board foot, or 1.45kg

This is a strong positive imhe: "- Step 1: handling it - Step 2: making sure it doesn’t happen again So when a major issue happens over the weekend only Step 1 happens during the weekend. Step 2 involves following up with other teams,

Yeah, it's a good point. The end of the handle for the Little Dipper is Polaris, the North Star I have it lined up now in Celestia, to see how it would project relative to someone looking down on the columns in Canberra from above, an

quick observation.. The layout of the columns is a "constellation" that looks like the little dipper... same basic layout, number of stars, curve of handle If so, the H column is the odd one out, and if you look for an interesting

Well, agreed! I'd say that's good evidence the political bureaucracy of big-Science has substantially corrupted that (your?) culture. It's not the only way though. There's a bright light coming from open source. Stay

Maybe the #1 valued thing in "capital S Science" -- the institutional bureaucracy of academia -- is trust. Trust that the bureaucracy will be preserved, funded, defended.. so long as the dogma is followed. The politics of Scienc
