The truth is that scientists want people to be intrigued by what they do. They want to accurately explain what they do, but need a hook to get people to listen. IAAS
In quantum mechanics, photons are indistinguishable. They are all excitations of the the same quantum field, so it isn't meaningful to assign individuality to each photon. Mathematically, if you interchange two photons, you have done nothing to the state of the photonic quantum field.
Are we living in some sort of dystopia where the purpose of life is to be a productive little citizen and go straight to work for your corporate/military masters in your government-approved plan? You work not so much to make money, but to avoid becoming excommunicated and forced into destitution. Obey and you'll get enough to survive.
People say dry heat like it ain't no big deal. It's true that in the shade, dry heat isn't that much of a problem. AFAIK, one definition of heat index uses the wet bulb temperature, measuring the temperature of a wet bulb in the shade. But the thing about the desert is that there is no shade. There is no cloud cover, pretty much every day, and there are no trees to hide under. You have some short bushes and occasional cacti, but you won't have meaningful shade unless it's man-made. The air temperature isn't that bad, but the temperature of any surface exposed to the sun skyrockets. I've lived in Phoenix and in Austin. Yeah, it's more humid in Austin, but there's shade everywhere. There are trees.
There's a huge difference between clothes that have been tried in the fitting room for a couple minutes and clothes that have been "tried" for a night on the town and then returned. Most people aren't gonna be mucking around too much in the clothes in a retail shop, but who knows what you will do to them at home or elsewhere.
There needs to be a process for legitimate suicide. I mean getting documents in order and getting your body disposed of properly. We can't just have people offing themselves wherever they feel like it and investigators being tied up trying to figure out where these corpses came from.
What's a Gun Free Zone? You mean like when you enter the Capitol, you have to put your bag through the x-ray? Should we have one of those security lines to enter the park?
I'm not a Christian, but I can attempt to make sense of Christian logic. The OT says all these sins are punishable by death. Christianity has a concept of transference of sin. So, homosexuality is punishable by death, but it doesn't have to be the death of the homosexual. Rather, the punishments are transferred to Jesus, who supposedly died for your sins. Conveniently, Jesus can absorb or absolve an unlimited amount of sin with a single death.
You'd better look at the numbers if you think you can use all the CO2 in this way. A ton of CO2 is perhaps enough to fill a 1000 sqft greenhouse with 100% CO2. The world emitted some 40 billion tons of CO2 in 2014 by burning fossil fuels. How many greenhouses per person are we building a year now?

Aren't immigrants part of the 99%?
its position will have changed by almost 316 K
Its position changes by a temperature?

Bleaching isn't a continuous thing, but kind of fluctuates. Take a look here

Each one seems to be getting worse than the previous, so we shouldn't be patting ourselves on the back that this one is over.
It hurts the retailers if people keep returning clothes, so retailers have an incentive to pressure manufacturers to have accurate sizing.

Trademark isn't copyright. You have to use it or lose it.
Meh. I'm hardcore environmentalist and even I don't think climate change will cause human extinction. It'll be bad, but not that bad.
Was it really about rural vs urban, or was it about state vs state?
Well, maybe the US Civil War was for the best. It's not good to compromise on everything.
That's what katanas are for.

I don't think politicians can be considered "innocent people". Some of the staffers, maybe, but even that's arguable.
What difference does grammar have to the efficacy of a prayer?

There's already a couple dozen companies working on self-driving cars. Is Apple trying to lead, or follow?
Are there any printer manufacturers that don't fucking suck?
There's a lot more O2 than CO2 in the air. We'll run out of fossil fuels before we run out of O2.
Eh, how much beer would you need to make to temporarily store even one ton of CO2?

We should eliminate the limited liability corporation. If the corp goes bankrupt, then go after the shareholders.
