what he should do, is point that tube up the side of a mountain, load a falcon 9 or falcon 1 variant into it, shoot it out the top at about mach 5-6 in the thin mountaintop air, and have a reusable single stage to orbit linear accelerator assisted rocket launch. but then, maybe this is part of his plan to get something developed along those lines.
Id sure like to know how you can drop out of the "quitting cold turkey program" and thusly not be counted in the study. then you might have a fair comparison of AA with the baseline of quitting cold turkey. And your analogy with a chemo study is disingenuous, it would be a fair comparison if all the people with really bad cancer self selected to drop out of the trial, inflating the chemo success rates over a control group baseline, just as all the people who went back to drinking self selected to not go through a humiliating and somewhat public admission of failure at a AA meeting and dropped out of the program instead, inflating the AA success rate over a control group baseline.
this article cites a few studies on dopamine receptors and fucking brain waves, and tries to link those with 12 step programs, does a bad job of it, and does not cite any study of the actual success rate of AA vs quitting cold turkey. Probably because those studies show that AA has at best, no effect on relapse rates for addiction.
and AA isnt grassroots. its sneaky religious indoctrination that judges can order alcoholics to attend in lieu of time in jail. and thats probably unconstitutional.
What is it with old people whinging about the fear they feel all the damn time. Maybe there confusing their oncoming mortality with the end of the world. Fucking drama queens.
Meanwhile Seiki are releasing a 39 inch 4k display this month for $700. Sure, their decision to limit the 4k resolution to a 30hz refresh rate by not including a displayport connection is really quite daft, but it should provide a whole lot of desktop realestate for coding and the like.
no. energy storage per kg is much more important than energy storage per litre of volume. an electric car would be pushing around a 50kg battery vs a 500kg battery, which would increase the range much more.
you think that the small amount spacex is spending compared to the shuttle means its rockets are unsafe. what it actually means is its a good design, which costs a lot less to make safe compared to the shuttle, which is a bad design, that cost a incredibly large amount of money to make sorta, kinda, not really, safe.
one would think any profits made off the back off a childs labor and art would fall under some sort of 'shirley temple' law, wherein the money made is held in trust until the child turns 18 and can take ownership of it.
as someone who is typing this on a 120hz 3d lcd monitor, i think youll find your wrong. the actual limiting factor in the refresh rate of most hd tvs is the maximum bandwidth of the HDMI connection standard, which cant do full hd at 120 fps. my dual link dvi driven monitor does 120hz nvidia 3d vision just fine, thankyouverymuch.
ok. first thing. any vacuum "balloon" probably wouldnt be a sphere. it would probably be a regular tetrahedron with titanium spokes emanating from center and ending at the corners, and the sides would bow in under the load of the atmospheric pressure, and carbon fibre would reinforce the sides.
i would like to know if they can do a borderless oled display, or one with a border so thin as to be invisible, such that one could put a few of them so close to each other to make a seamless high resolution display.

welcome to science journalism. so many wonderful promises, unfufilled

it seems what is needed is something like the english system, where the loser pays the legal costs of the winner.
It would have been funnier if it dropped 8.1%

its more that only elected officials should have the power to pass or halt the making of bills into law
after 1080p, the best increment in screen output would be a 120hz refresh rate.
I never liked Dr. Who. It always seemed a bit too "wacky" to really suspend disbelief.
Me and my heart of the swarm preorder would respectfully disagree.

Well thats a relief. Thats whats always bothered me about batteries. Just how gosh darn inflexible they are. Cough.

im from ASIO, and theres a terrorist in your vagina. and i have to catch it with my penis.
i would like to know if they can do a borderless oled display, or one with a border so thin as to be invisible, such that one could put a few of them so close to each other to make a seamless high resolution display.
who cares about video. i want my 32 inch 4k monitor right now damnit.
you totally can tell the difference between 30 and 60 fps in tv/movies.
thats nice and all, but is it good enough to play teamfortress 2 online with?
id say that is job performance. who the hell wants a CIA director who cant even keep his extramarital affair secret?
