I would say that the best part of the article is: “Some of you haven't had blisters from overusing your pestle and it shows.”

Not true. The graphite needs two magnets, not one like in the video.

As far as I understand there is no real explanation for the measurements and the video demonstrating the Meissner effect apart from faking it. The Reddit thread that you posted alleges that they were faking the video by super-cooling a non-

“Both papers present similar measurements” I’m not a physicist expert of superconductors, although I’ve followed quite closely that field since the ‘90s. But if the measurements are similar and correct and if the video of lk-99 levitating a

This tells me that you never really looked at functional languages, not even used them. The power of ADT, especially when using a comprehensive pattern matching expression, is pretty difficult to emulate in the OOP world without a ton of co

Not really, it depends from the application. Even something like 20 years ago the CCDs available at the time were capable of astrometric measure of star magnitudes with 1/100 of magnitude precision using some control stars.

Your view of the story is completely flawed. Your first point is false. There is no regulation that forces banks to buy long term government bonds. There is some regulation that forces them to have a certain percentage of capital tier 1 t

No their model has nothing to do with VC. Maybe it would be useful if at least you read the definition on Wikipedia before trying to pass completely incorrect notions as truth? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedge_fund

Go is from 2009, so well before 2013. Google photos was launched 4 years after Apple photos on iCloud, so I wouldn’t call it innovative.

It’s not particularly indicated for serious deep sky astronomy given the small exit pupil of just 3mm. The eye pupil is easily double than that in the dark. I think that the 8x56 is much better for that given the 7mm exit pupil.

Starship is fully reusable so it will cost a small fraction of falcon heavy to send a much bigger payload. The cost of sending a payload to orbit will plummet once starship is operative. More importantly Falcon Heavy uses the Merlin engines
