The galaxy NGC 300 is 6.07 ± 0.23 Mly away but they are talking about one series of events from less than 5 million years ago, which means we will not know about it for another million years. "they discovered that most nearby stars were created in two bursts — one 30 million years ago and the other less than 5 million years ago."
It was a telephone company and employed a huge number of women in it's office based roles (rather than it's outdoor service roles) so there was a career path for them that opened doors to jobs associated with computing. So what has happened, nothing, now the jobs don't exist that lead to those other jobs, that mostly don't exist either. To confuse the work environment then and now and the skills that are in demand is a mistake.
No but Africans are far more genetically diverse, so you can't generalise as easily about them as a group. That diversity just implies a wider spread of capabilities, if anything at all, and it says nothing about the reproductive fitness value of any given characteristic.
As far as evolution is concerned only fecundity matters, and everything above your hips is there acting in a support role to your gonads.
It will be really amazing when they actually manage to do it twice. No seriously, the frequency of detected events is very important, so they need to collect an entire series of detections to have useful data.
Yes that is what the article says, improves learning in those task areas, not in general. The take away message here is that the brain is "plastic" and different activities can change it in beneficial ways therefore if we know what they are and factor them into our lifestyles we may have our brains maintain their level of functionality for longer than if we did not.
You don't need to perfect re-entry technology, you just need to detonate the weapon over the target to cause a massive amount of economic damage.
This development increase the chances of NK getting hit and hit hard in a pre-emptive strike, but without boosting their chances of successfully mounting a retaliation. It offers them absolutely no protection.
i.e. They have simply given themselves the nation state equivalent of the terrorist's suicide bomb. Because if they are sneaky they could use it, once, and then get vaporised, therefore their aim is to intimidate and terrorise other nations. Their nuclear program is not for peaceful or even practical defensive purposes.
Your move China, either put a muzzle on your lap dog or have missile systems on your doorstep. I can see why they are afraid that the US missiles in SK could carry nuclear weapons and be used against them, because there is no technical reason why they can't, yet another good reason for China to put an end to the NK experiment.
Because they think you are all potential evil fart rapists, rather than just a aspy nerds with no people skills and a bad diet, therefore they feel a compulsion to try and "cure" you vial social engineering despite the fact that your are probably a victim of your genetics as much as anything and therefore their actions are discrimination.
Ladies, and lads, if the prof tries to grab your giggly bits just kick him in the balls and walk away, because I can guarantee you that he will never try it again and the sight of him on the floor will make you feel much better, as well as symbolise who really is the Alpha.
Circuits using liquefied gases for cooling passed 20 GHz over 40 years ago, so this fun experiment is the equivalent of strapping a JATO onto a bicycle.
The probability of less that 25 million people coming up with anything so good or so bad that it has a significant impact on the lives of the other +7.1 billion is small.
So leave them to deal with their financial problems as they see fit and worry about what the rest of humanity is, or isn't doing because the actions of those vast masses will be far more influential.
It is not hard to do, if you have the equipment, but doing it without wrecking it is another matter. So why did they only do it once, and does their machine still work or did they burn out the liner and need to fix it?
They didn't even get to ask the ones who are dead or still in prison did they? What happened to the other 2/3 when they started the study? Even with the people that did respond there is a clear pattern of puzzle games being increasingly more popular over violent types as the person's education level rises.
I am not sure what to make of it all but I am still glad I installed these games on all the machines on my LAN, http://www.chiark.greenend.org...
While nausea caused by VR has genetics as a significant factor ( a "if your vision does not match your inner ear you may have eaten something bad and should probably vomit it back up" type survival trait) it cannot be rolled out universally as a teaching aid because to do so would disadvantage the significant numbers of people who are born with a sensitivity to VR induced nausea syndrome.
Better invest in some new a better drugs guys, because the current anti nausea drugs don't work well and make you dumber.
All this new tech is fantastic, but it is very frustrating when you have the cash to spend on it and the companies that resell his tech (in Australia) will not bother to take on jobs that are more complex than a "plug it in and walk away" type install.
I really wish Elon Musk would give them a boot up the ass about that attitude because big problems don't get solved by only accepting easy and routine tasks.
That sounds logical. The only other reason I can see is that they are letting NK force the West into developing more advanced ICBM counter measure technologies because they are confident that they will then be able to steal it and thereby undermine the West's ICBM capabilities. Ask yourself what would Sun Tzu do?
I'm no feminazi, such people repulse me, however if you are going to give a machine a sex you are implying things about that sex and one of those things is that the sex is an object rather than a person with a mind. The very existence of female AI digital assistants is degrading the value of females. They don't need a sex, make them the gender neutral entities that they really are and stop being bloody hypocrites, or just get over the fact that some humans are lecherous pigs and treat them as just another market segment.
He is right that it is probably a bit late to expect most secondary students to get up to speed because visual programming is just introduction level coding and you still need to progress along the full learning path before you can code with confidence in real-world programming tasks, however I start my kids with MIT Scratch around the age of 5 or 6 so they are programming in C and Javascript by the time they are 10.
The bottom line is that there is no way around the fact that to code well you need to have a very strong grasp of logic and mathematics, and have acquired a large amount of technical knowledge. Many programming tasks come down to replacing the manual operations of entire teams of humans, with code, and those individual humans often can't tell you what everyone else in their team does, therefore to be able to write that code you need people who are smart enough to get their heads around multiple interconnected skill-sets over and above the abstract computer science skills that they need.
When it comes to IT most of the relevant facets of our IQ are significantly influence by our choice of parents, both their DNA and how they raise us (and a school is no substitute for having good parents!). You can't get around that, therefore early years IT training should focus on identifying and nurturing talent more than on the delusion that all people can ever be good enough at coding to bother doing it at all.

Not if it kills you the moment you touch it. And by "it" I mean the much larger integrated system it is part of.
I can't see nuclear waste sitting around for more than a century before fusion driven recycling systems consume it all.
A good description of the technology and it history can be found at https://csiropedia.csiro.au/ce...

If you were a silicon based life-form and tried eating carbon based beans from Earth you'd start leaving chemtrails too.

There is a hint in this article that the previous time limit was safety related, http://www.scmp.com/tech/scien...
I guess if you are in a race you sometimes have to take risks to get ahead of the pack, even at the risk of a wipe-out.
Totally worth it if they learned anything useful.
