I heard about this study a while ago on NPR (no, I don't choose to listen to it). They said that the study showed that to get the necessary vitamin D, we need 15 minutes of sun every 2 weeks. Unless you're nocturnal or a vampire, I don't see how this would be a problem....
"Most users who would have bought the SW in the first place, still do buy it. Bussiness users still buy it."
I wonder what would happen if piracy was no longer illegal or seen as being "wrong". Business users would probably be inclined not to buy the software, despite having the money to do so. Anyone care to theorize what would happen to the markets/industries as a result?
Isn't this just a swamp cooler? Aren't they rendered useless in humid environments? Wouldn't reading this article be a complete waste of time for the majority of us?
It's accelerate to 34 km/s. I forget what the actual acceleration is, but I figured out that the flyer plate goes from 0 to 60 (mph) in something like 0.002 nanoseconds.
I work at Sandia, on this very topic. These are just flyer plate experiments, using the Z-machine's Marx Generators to isentropically accelerate small aluminum flyer plates up to high velocities, in order to better understand the behavior of metals at high pressures/densities/temperatures. This has been around for a while now. The only difference is they've recently attained these higher velocities by having the Marx Generators switch at slightly different times, rather than all at once.
Nothing to see here, move along. (and pay no attention to the man behind the curtain)
"They have stuff like stars that are older than some estimates of the universe's age, and missing matter in the form of dark matter that they can't account for.
Don't forget about accelerated expansion (dark energy), and time-varying (or even space-varying) constants. It'd be interesting if they could get this thing to spit out something even close to what we see now.
Yeah, I noticed. Thanks. Until I can find the sequence for dystrophin, I can convert it into a word. Can you find a link to the actual amino acid sequence?

Why don't they put RFID tags on all the tiles? A cheap solution, and they'll know the instant one of them is removed or severely damaged.

Shouldn't the control group's BMI remain relatively unchanged? or are they all just Americans?
Given the replies he's gotten, this person is obviously a regular "bullshit-caller".
"Fans of the cult-hit series Firefly will be pleased to learn that the show has been picked up by the Sci Fi Channel."
Correction: were pleased to learn... over a month ago.

I haven't seen them use it, but I'm not sure. I'm on the simulation part of research, not the experimental.
The purpose of the device is to determine the equations of state for various metals at very high densities/pressures/temperatures.

You, sir, are an idiot.

Chaos has pretty much destroyed these possibilities.

I'm fairly certain the Feral Kid used the PS3 controller in Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior.
I used a bracket just like that, except it was from an old Erector set, to cool the video card in my old computer.

I just wrote out a longer version, so this one is no longer the longest. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titin

Yes, and until you write down the sequence for dystrophin, guess what, it won't be the longest name ever written down, bright eyes.

Alright, titin exists now. The REAL longest word, at 189,819 letters: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methionylthreonylthre onyl...isoleucine
Hey don't make fun of my heritage.
