Or their metallurgy surpasses ours and they really have figured out useful alloys that we haven't discovered yet. But AFAIK simple spectroscopic analysis will tell you what's in an alloy.
But simple spectroscopic analysis won't necessarily tell you how it behaves or what its properties are.
Alien alloys and materials would have to be the best kept secret since, ever though. And that seems quite unlikely.
You obviously didn't read the article, or have any idea about what you are saying. The backup was available and responded within 4 seconds, well within it's 6 second contracted response time.
The only thing really wrong is you understanding of the situation.
LOL.
You have always been a fuck up, but this one takes the cake.
First, adding to your GDP, will only add on average, the same amount of CO2. After all, the whole point is that normalization produced an AVERAGE of the CO2 / $ GDP. Add 1M to GDP and you just added a bunch more CO2 to accomplish it. The ONLY way to game this one, is to lower your CO2, OR increase the $GDP, with the same CO2.
Can you seriously be this dense? $1M of added GDP will always have the same CO2? So a $1M coal power station will have the same CO2 as a $1M solar farm? Or $1M worth of philosophy majors sitting around thinking about things.
Then you speak of adding a bunch of construction of empty buildings. I can not imagine a WORST way to increase your GDP. Why? Because your nation does such a HORRIBLE job on construction WRT environment and CO2. You erect bamboo scaffolding and then throw away the bamboo after the project. That means that you have to go harvest a lot more of it. Your equipment is actually some of the highest polluting in the world. Your approach to making Concrete is huge on CO2 emissions. One of the worst in the world. And you think that building a bunch of empty buildings will actually cause your CO2 / $GDP to go down? Not a chance.
That is probably his whole point. Massive waste and CO2 production is ok as long as you increase GDP enough to cover it. Environment be damned.
THe ONLY way to game this, would be to raise your money against the dollar, which would then mean that your exports would fall, since the costs are not being subsidized. IOW, by doing CO2 / $ GDP, there is no real way to game this.
And how are you going to force GDP to be measured the same way in different countries? Do you really trust the Chinese statistics? Their inflation and every other adjustment to GDP you will have no problem with?
So, yeah, this is the ONLY way that it will work correctly. Per capitia is worthless.
GDP is worthless, only per capita is a useful measure.
Read your own comment. You are not forced to sell it the second(/day) it reaches a certain price, you can last months (indefinitely) making minimum payments on your Visa. Margin at a broker is not like that, you pay up now or they sell (some of) it for you.
Margin you need collateral, say 50%, and the bitcoin will be collateral too. As the price falls the broker will keep selling your bitcoins for you until they are all gone and all your collateral is gone.
In this scenario you lose all your collateral, ie money you already had and invested. Kick yourself for being gullible and move on.
Visa will not give 2 fucks if bitcoins drop in price on any given day.They are not going to send around the repo-men to repossess your bitcoins if you don't pay your interest. Eventually if you don't pay your bills long enough you will have to sell your other assets, will go bankrupt etc. In this scenario you lost money you never had and were forced to sell other things to pay for your stupidity. But you could also still have the bitcoin if they ever recover, assuming you didn't tell your creditors about them.
(Yes you could have pulled out the Visa to cover the margin, but then you are 'investing' money you don't have again and changing it to scenario 2)
Margin is different to credit cards.
It's nothing like margin, you are not forced to sell. If the wild gyrations continue you are fine. With margin and forced selling one trip on the roller-coaster that is too low and you are done. Even if the price quickly recovered after. Too many people in that situation makes the dip deeper and it's self reinforcing from there as the new low triggers more margins. No margin, no forced selling, no feedback loop.
It can still crash (and probably will) for other reasons, but not this one.
Many of the countries in which the targets live -- the United States, Canada, and Germany, among others -- have strict wiretapping laws that make it illegal to eavesdrop without a warrant
Why would other countries care about United States, Canada, and Germany, among others -- strict wiretapping laws?
It's not like those countries are going to respect say Ethiopia's domestic laws when they hack into their country.
You walk up to the front door and it tells you your house is updating to creators edition. You have to wait outside in the snow a few hours before you can go inside.
Yes, twice the CO2 with more than 4x the number of people...
Per capita no longer matters apparently,it's all country based. So the easy solution is to split China into 4 countries North, East, South and West China.
Each new country will be a bit bigger than America but only produce about 2.5 kt of CO2 a year. A little less than half America's 5.1 kt. 2015 numbers The world will be saved...
Lets see how quickly you will both change your tune and not call for America, the new biggest polluter to cut their CO2 in half. But instead find some other excuse.
I can already guess, you will switch to GDP and tell us all that America is allowed to be the dirtiest because it is also the richest.

Of course everyone knows it's cheaper to just launch 11 meters of ocean depth into space than reduce CO2 emissions...
But what about the pollution from the trillions of rocket launches, or were you planning on using a big straw?
Despite the fact America is one of the dirtiest countries with respect to CO2. Twice as bad as Germany and China, way over three times the world average. You still managed to troll a bunch of people into focusing on China and Germany.
China and Germany could literally double their coal use. Just burn it all for fun, don't even make electricity or use the heat. Just stick it in a big pile and light it on fire, and they would still be cleaner than America.
You are completely and utterly wrong.
Which of these 3 things will have the biggest change in CO2.
1. Per country. Draw more lines on the map. Change China into 4 countries.
2. Per GDP. Inflation changes the numbers on the paper you buy things with. Exchange rates change all the time.
3. Per person. Kill off half the population in a country.
The US is a much worse polluter on the only measure that counts.
Do you lie professionally? Of course not, they would be a bit more believable and less trivially checked and found.
Unless you just really are that bad at it...
If you don't know, why pretend that you do?
There is no such thing as a 99 year lease in China.
If you can't even get that basic fact right, you lose all credibility for your other unsubstantiated claims.

Printing physical notes has little relationship to the supply of money in the economy. The vast majority of money is numbers in a computer somewhere.

No, cities didn't get created to help Apple, so why should they get to use them for free when everyone else has to pay?
Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein told Bloomberg that the currency serves as "a vehicle for perpetrating fraud."
Well he would know...
JPMorgan boss Jamie Dimon, who called it a "fraud"
Ditto
or is this a case of a reporting mistake
No it is a case of not reading the fucking article.
In its first 530 days of scientific observations, DAMPE detected 1.5 million cosmic ray electrons and positrons above a certain energy threshold.
Because running around your backyard instead of doing your work is somehow better than playing golf?

You do realize that batteries can be used over and over. It's kind of their feature...
But not all at the same time.
