It's more like putting berries into the blender and running it to see how often a berry hits you in the eye. They found that coplanar planets and coplanar debris statistically won't produce this specific type of (high inclination)

I'm skeptical this is genuinely because of GDPR. Consent could be withdrawn before or after GDPR. My guess is that the school have realised they're at risk of having to reprint all their promotional materials if consent is withd

No idea, but I'd expect they'll initially price it for companies until they get the price per unit down... maybe make the business case that it can replace a night watchman type position so replaces one or more salaries. I'd

The Russian engines they were initially prototyped with, or the Chinese engines they're planning for the production version? I'm not sure it's hugely relevent though. The F35 procurement was structurally unsound. The result i

Well, if nothing else, the Chinese J-31 would probably do the job. It's an F35 with a bunch of the crippling design compromises removed. https://www.defenseone.com/threats/2015/09/more-questions-f-...

Can you be more specific about these ways you imagine it backfiring? Brooker tackled this kind of thing in Black Mirror, and while his vision of it was pretty bleak, it actually seemed a lot more open to social mobility than our current sys

I'm not sure if you meant to imply that the 2nd amendment is a fundamental human right but if so I think that's a bit of a stretch. 'Fundamental rights' (under US law) I think is defensible as fundamental is treated as a

Personally I have no idea what you're talking about when you say "BlueHDI", I had to look it up, so clearly there's an element of subjectivity here. Similarly things like football team colours may also come into play, so

I don't know. The context of the policy day was around encouraging adoption of EVs and HEVs rather than better ICE vehicles. Perhaps that's a signal. I personally see it as mostly a marketing challenge so spent most of my time cha

I think a name change would be very beneficial, but also, mass hysteria seems like more than one phenomenon, and at least some of it seems mixed with hyperbole so unpicking it all might help too. This instance sounds like one the 'me
