It takes a while for the body to feel full. If you eat slowly, there's more chance you'll actually feel full at the end of the plate/meal, and not go back for seconds.
said bureaucrats will ensure a) that no food is produced in California and b) the cost of living increases as fuel costs are paid to have all food imported from out of state. Well done sirs, well done.
If the bureaucrats won't do it, aquifer depletion will.
Reusable boosters are nice, but they don't even have a realistic plan for the landing stage, which is much harder. The Curiosity rover used a complex landing procedure using the 'sky crane' concept, and that thing was only 1 ton. To keep a few humans alive for a while, you'll need a much more massive lander, and you need to set it down very gently.
On one side -how do they plan to raise that amount of money?
After the selection process, the candidates will enter a "rocket" that's really a cardboard prop with hidden cameras. During the journey, they'll face some challenges that will force them vote for the next candidate to be pushed out of the airlock.
If water was properly priced, it would just be an additional variable in the profit calculation. It doesn't mean you'd have to rip out the crop. If you can still make it profitable, despite higher water prices, it makes sense to continue to grow it.
Where I live, public transport is running at peak capacity during rush hour. Reducing the price isn't going to have a significant effect on the road traffic. Making it free will likely attract some people that aren't currently on the road at all, such as junkies looking for a comfortable place to sit.

I'm always just shocked that they don't think to weigh what they eat over the course of a week and eat less the next week.
I'm equally shocked that smokers don't count the cigarettes they smoke in a week, and smoke less the next week.
Different kinds of fatty acids also also needed as essential building blocks for all kinds of stuff the body needs. Carbs are just for energy.

You can lose weight on 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6+ meals a day. Whatever you feel comfortable with.
Don't go on a diet (Hacker's Diet or otherwise), but do make a permanent change to your lifestyle.
In other words: go on a diet, but never quit.
How fricking complicated is it to eat less than you burn?
It's not complicated, just hard.
Use iWater instead.
From the cloud ?
I found General Failure... not sure why he was reading my hard drive.
Did you ask yourself why NASA didn't use the successful Viking I and II landing system for Curiosity ?

Those 5 gallons of water evaporate, and end up in Boston as snow. Are you volunteering to close the loop ?

In other words: the scam is working nicely, and we'd like to milk this cow for another 2 years.
Water is only cheap because they're pumping it from aquifers. But if they keep doing that, the aquifers will run dry, causing even greater problems.

Apparently, cheating is rare enough that a single event is worthy of its own wikipedia entry.

In this case, talking about Paris, the pollution will be dominated by cars. There aren't many industrial sources in the city.
People don't want change if it causes short term discomfort.
Not really fair to diesel owners, which include most of the business vehicles.
except that is not what is happening.
Can you see the green line ?

There are a few reports that suggest that the ice caps on Mars are slowly receding too, so it may be in part due to changing solar activity.
If you're curious about possible solar activity, wouldn't it be smarter to look directly at the sun ?

For a majority of the Cenozoic there have been no polar ice caps (and life went on).
And sea level was about 100 m higher than now.
global warming is not a grave threat to the planet
Agreed. The planet will be fine. It's the people that will be fucked.
Not quite. You can show that 30 year intervals have statistically significant trends.
