A photon with gamma ray wavelength and the power to ionize atoms gets stretched by all possible observation points into a microwave that can do no such thing.
If by "observation points" you mean "reference frames," then won't there always be a reference frame where it has gamma ray (or any other) wavelength?
Where did that energy go?
Nowhere, I think. It's like running fast enough to snatch a bullet out of the air without hurting yourself. Relative to you, the bullet has very little kinetic energy.
Ad or no ad, an auto-playing video is nothing less than insulting to me, and, I would think, most readers of Slashdot. We know what embedded video is and how it works.
If you agree, rather than reply to this post, why not make a top-level reply with the same subject and your own words on the matter? Add colourful metaphors, if you like!
But now, for the first time, we've been able to visualize how the Earth appears to move as seen from above the far side of the Moon.
We've been able to do this for decades. If this really is the first time - and I'm not inclined to take medium.com's* word on that - then it's more a case of "the first time someone could be bothered."
we found the No. 2 reason why girls in particular are not pursuing it as a career is because their perception was fairly negative and they associated it as a field for boys
Well, that's great, but if the No. 1 reason is that girls just aren't as interested in coding as boys (generally/on average) then how far are you going to get?
Alright, just stop with the "your" headlines. They just sound so condescending, as if the author knows everything about everyone.
Which they don't, clearly, since my bank, like those of many other posters above, has two-factor auth. They sent me - free, without having to be asked, and presumably all their internet-enabled account holders have one - a little gizmo into which I put a number and it gives me back another number to be entered on the website.
That said, I'd rather have a username instead of "IB[10 digits]", and I'd rather just be asked for a password instead of "the name of the street you grew up on." The latter, certainly, would seem at first glance to less secure than asking for a generic password.

if there was no big bang, why is it that the further away from Earth we look with telescopes, the more red-shifted the light is?
It gets tired on the long journey.
Naively, doesn't conservation of energy also suggest that particles can't pop into existence out of nothing? But they do.
TL:DR; physics is bonkers.
Brilliant, thanks!

Pah. Programmer's Notepad, you rebel scum!
Microsoft Trademarks "Windows 365"
As if anyone would have got away with branding something with that name prior to MS trademarking it...
Or does this mean Windows 364 and Windows 366 (for leap years, of course) are still anybody's?
Bad news: every four years (except every 100 years, except every 400 years) it'll suck.

The Man Squatting On Millions of Dollars
Sounds like the title of this year's Turner Prize winner. Bloody modern art.
What's the problem here?
Who said there's a problem? Why does there have to be one for something to make the news?
It took me ten years to get "What's so bad about being drunk?/Ask a glass of water."

they would not comment on the existence or non-existence of the Tempora program.
That's because it's actually the tempura program, and no-one wants that taken away from them.
It's a portmanteau.
It's a kind of hat?

Those are "rings," but they're nothing to do with planetary rings like those around Saturn or this new world.

What's your point? Are you suggesting this device is therefore useless?

She could, but for some reason she's kept it on in all of those photos.
