Bohr the physicist, Boron or Bohrium ? The first has a finite supply with a halflife of a few years (and stopped being produced in 1962), the second is more available, the 3rd one is a heavy, unstable elemetn with a halflife of 61 seconds.
Unless you're a recluse old spinster portrayed by Kathy Bates, how can you force anyone, let alone a corporation, to write something. Will they also maim the guy if the produced work is not up to the expected?
I could understand forcing spec & design disclosure, but *write* something ?
There are provisions against social tourism in the Maastricht treaty. And they are being used. Sure people can come back any time they want on a tourist visa, but that doesn't entitle anyone to benefits.
This is a typical example of "what is seen and what is not seen". What is seen is that the poor will continue to make the local economy run. What is not seen is the tax money the rich won't be able to spend on an import solid gold humvee running on imported gasoline.
There are a few examples of engineering projects where everything went right, or at least better than expected. [...]. The Panama canal has it too. Can you think of any others?
More importantly, can we make everything work like that?
The Panama canal bankrupted thousands of French investors, killed thousands of workers, and ruined Gustave Eiffel's reputation for the rest of his life.
ghaaaaa! Not only are pounds medieval units shared with only Myanmar and Liberia, 1 million pounds is NOT 454,000 kg. While 1 million lb is only one significant figure, 454000 means at least 3, possibly more depending on the interpretation. The actual masses are 924,740 lb and 419,455 kg resp. These figures themselves have issues as propellant loss among other will make the last few digits variable. But the 454000 figure is way off.
Although the first gravitational lens wasn't discovered for some 40 years after it was first theorized
Eddington demonstrated gravitational lensing just a few years after the theory was published, in 1919. And he would possibly have been quicker if if weren't for WWI
That they miss their plane because their alarm clock failed.
or they forget the kid, and while he's home alone a pair of FBI agents try to enter his home to arrest him, only he makes up more inventions to stop them.
YOU have physical access to your computer. YOU insert the "Free USB stick" you received totally free from the attacker. The attacker doesn't need to access your computer himself.
Well, ok another nitpick - if he had chatted a bit more with biologists he could have made the potato thingy more interesting.
What I was wondering while I read the book is: would it be possible to bypass the plant state and just synthesize nutrients using tabletop chemistry? Not very palatable, but potatoes get boring.
I second that. Up until last spring, we had to walk down, then along a loooong tunnel, then back up. Now they made a direct junction, from entrance to gate it's about 15 minutes tops
What a waste of time. In these 10 years since launch, they could have precomputed every possible picture, hash them, and then the probe could have simply sent the hashes instead of the full size pictures.
Being away from home many evenings per week and having a huge student debt in post 2007-2008, which you can't pay off quickly with your ridiculous low cost carrier salary, it should not be considered "disturbed" to wait until one earns more and has concrete personal plans before moving out.
Had I been more mature when I was 18, I would have stayed with my parents. I could have paid my apartment in cash and eaten healthy meals.
The real question, to me, is, why was the flight attendant not on the flight deck while the pilot was away?
It's a goat / cabbage / wolf problem.

Really curious: does he claim that lung cancer or liver cancer are [mainly] caused by viruses?

Too bad the picture was photobombed by Milky Way attention whoring stars.
