So let him fail the science fair and probably be banned from entering this science fair and probably other ones if they're federated. If that's not his first participation then the previous ones should also be reevaluated. But tha

The point being is that plagiarism at a known private school that you pay good money for and hope to rely on, is something you will give much more consideration than sending work to a science fair to see if it will stick to a wall or not. N

Do you really get expelled from high school in the USA? Isn't that basically mandatory education? And for plagiarism ? I'd see some evidence.

My point, if you can't get adult professionals with wages admit they fk'd up, there's zero and even negative expectations of unpaid teenager contestants. And that's what I am seeing happening right now. You have unaccept

The child is nothing to be blamed for, it is a 100% problem of the organizers. For a 17 years old, even throwing together such work is already an worthwhile result. Teens is a golden age of compilation and remixing.

The elephant in the room is that 17 years old should not be writing long scientific articles witha lot of supporting material. They are not paid for that and they are expected to study first. We should definitely expect to see short, brilli

The assumption that Iran is a poor country... I can see them building mass transit in numerious cities and amn't seeing the same in e.g. KSA. How do you measure country's net worth?

What changes when they are known? I believr it affects yout consciousness, not the one being simulated. The latter does not have "I'm being actually simulated" input

You do not need women in uniform to hold any land so that's a nice to have. I'm not talking about settling that land. I imagine that in Golan Heights Israel only basically has military personnel.

You also need men to actually hold any land. The best you can do with drones is turning enemy territory into grey zone.

I was thinking, what if Shahed had 10 Lancets to be activated somewhere around the route instead of a single explosive payload? Then it could strike several armoured vehicles at once, deep into the enemy ranks.

I wonder what's the mechanism for having people not discuss crime as they see fit. Is it only the free press doing tabooing?

Thanks - I'm surprised that Amur is also on the list. I'd expect everybody on its banks has figured out how to deal with waste by now.

I've heard that 80% of plastic pollutions in the oceans are from African big rivers being used as dumpsters and then flushing their yield to the sea. Why TF are we supposed to limit plastic use in developed countries, often located dee

So, how many libyears were that xz dependency out of date? Libyears are meaningless. A library either has known vulnerabilities or it doesn't. When it doesn't, old is often better than new one.

There are plenty bad regimes on the planet. Iraq is going to jail homosexuals for 12 years now. KSA didn't allow women to drive. Most of your answer applies to KSA 100%. It was you who turned Syria from autocracy into autocracy destroy
