We know what annihilation looks like. If there were anti-stars in our galaxy, we'd see some substantial annihilation signatures in the mixing in nebulae for example. Even if whole galaxies were anit-matter, we'd see some signature where the galaxies mix. The smallest unit of mass that could be anti matter unnoticeably is probably the supercluster. Even then, doubtful that we couldn't see annihilation signatures along the great walls, for example.
Well I have good news and bad news: The good news is, we don't have to worry about ever losing the moon. The bad news is that the reason will be the sun puffing up into a red giant, vaporizing both planets, long before the moon would be lost to us.
The unobservable universe is the infinite portion beyond the light speed horizon. If you really want to be depressed, think about future civilizations in our galaxy for whom all other galaxies will have retreated beyond the light speed horizon. They will have a much harder time figuring out how the universe works.
Now realize that we may already be one of those future civilizations from the perspective of the lucky folks who got to see the universe early on.
The universe we can see is primarily made up of matter. We know because there are characteristics of antimatter that would allow us to know if we were looking at an anti-galaxy, for example. But we don't know why there is so much matter, and not anti-matter, because the laws of physics we understand so far are neutral. So to explain the universe we see, there must be some rule we don't know about yet, which explains why the universe heavily favors matter.
This story is about a high-energy physics experiment which revealed a result which will help to explain the discrepancy if it can be confirmed. It will guide us towards that new rule to explain this particular mystery of the universe.
Domains really couldn't truly be free forever. When the first troll arrived on the internet, dispute resolution became necessary, and that meant more employees and costs, going well beyond what a few volunteers could do with their spare time.
Just reflect for a moment on what you're suggesting. There was a halcyon day in the past, when the idea of a first post had literally not been invented yet. Some person actually first came up with it, and then it caught fire. It is one of the most successful memes in history, replicated through millions of brains. Quite possibly more brains than any religion. It is a true masterpiece of human thought.
Are you kidding? Every fortune 500 company will buy this, and pay through the nose to have it. This might be the most profitable idea MS has had in a decade or more.
Yeah, that's an upper management failure in my book. They should be connected well enough to know what is going on at least two levels down, not one (enabling them to check the calibration of their direct reports). If that's not possible, the branching factor is probably too high.
You tell them you have a bomb that will go five miles deep. This forces your opponent to spend a lot of money digging themselves in 6 miles deep. You don't even have to have said bomb for this strategy to work.
It's an exceedingly small number, picked because I bet most people would guess that life might be less rare than that. But indeed, we really don't know the actual rarity. Personally, I bet it's more like one in a million or better. The chemistry of life is just not that complicated.

And just how many first posts do you imagine there have been? Maybe 100 billion by now, a trillion even?

But places are dimensions.
That is not the going theory.

Just substitute "there's an obvious reason to prefer" for "he believes" and you'll understand.
The point is that you're wrong about 'anyone'. It matters to many a PHB who notices.

There was such a claim. OPERA claims they corrected for the potential GPS error.

Basically: the light's departure was delayed.
I completely agree, that's why I qualified my statement with the if.
No, I think anyone who has started that practice should probably never stop ... best for the gene pool really.

Design is about as clearly non-CVA as it comes. Implementation is CVA. This is pretty much the whole philosophy behind agile.
... you are already doomed. You've gone so far down the wrong path there's no hope of recovery.

Sorry, to be clear I was saying 4 have to be solved after the first one, in order to frame it the same way as the parent.
Give them some time, man, that's a lot of legs to break.
