Grace's big contribution from the time wasn't the particular FLOWMATIC language but rather she conceived of the compiler. And note her languages were intended to be legible even to non-programmers, what an usual concept eh?
nope, too expensive at the time, over $400 a chip with a few gates, for those mundane uses. The computer made of them is the point of the argument, only military could afford it at the time. The commercial chips came later
no one has claimed only space exploration spinoffs gave us computer tech. once again you raise a straw man and then set it on fire.
However, ICBM and space exploration certainly did drive integrated circuit technology for computers. First computers built of Jack Kirby's solid state integrated circuits used by the air force in Minuteman II guidance system
also could have mentioned some bird's eyes that can see the earth's magnetic field; and goats with their horizontal rectangular pupils, which combined with the eyes position on the skull gives them a 340 degree field of vision without even having to move their eye. they can see you coming up behind them!
massive objects can bend light without event horizon. neutron stars do it. Other denser objects would do it if they exist, and those things that might be black holes might instead be those denser objects.
you are silly, vast differences in eyes in the animal kingdom. the spookfish eye has a side chamber with mirrors and a second retina, and works like a reflecting telescope. The Tarsier can't even move its eyes in the sockets, has to turn its head, besides night vision can see in ultraviolet but can't see color. The collosal squid has a built-in headlight, a photophore, in each eye to illuminate what it is focusing on, the dragonfly has 30,000 eyes that can see polarization of light as well as ultraviolet let, and moreover has 3 additional eyes of another type that are hypersensitive to extremely fast movements a human can't perceive. How about four-eyed fish with eyes to see in air and another pair for water?
no, there are other relevant statistics. Transmission rate for AIDS from men to women vs. woman to man in vaginal sex is different. Transmission rate by vaginal vs. anal sex is different.
was alluding to transmission rate of AIDs by vaginal rather than anal sex for example, and of transmission rate of men to women vs. women to men. Those are all quite different
we have indeed checked, and you'll be relieved to know there are none. The survey did find a formation of five rocky planets in a rosette heading to galactic north.
You do not know what science is then, particularly physics as practiced. Models are made, and experiments done to verify or disprove suitablity of models.
false, we do not know such a thing exists. We already know GR fails in describing the formation of a black hole because the realm of quantum mechanics is entered. Quantum gravity theories that look workable all have two features: no event horizons, and no singularities.
no we do not know any such thing, and any cosmology or GR professor will tell you that. we only know your first phrase "super massive objects exist", and there are alternatives which do NOT have the issues with reconcilliation with quantum mechanics that black holes do. Most quantum theories of gravity that look promising have no singularies or even horizons, i.e. do NOT lead to black holes
"a few hundred kids a year"??!! bullshit. every paper I see trying to claim that fact then goes to quote numbers for "under 20" or "under 25", in other words includes inner city gang-bangers. Show me "children under 13" statistics.
sorry, but the very very small number of incidents compared to other causes of death by or to children make it practically a non-issue. Your car is more likely to kill your child, or a hot dog.
so from that paper, in five years 2005 - 2010. 1,300 people under age of 25 killed in five years... but then they blather on about infants and chldren without actually numbering or telling a percentage of those under 25 years of age of that 1,300. Sorry, but that leads me to believe it's a statistically small number, I'm will to wager choking to death on a hot dog is bigger risk for that age group.
what the hell? I made my own 5V power supply when I was twelve with a bridge rectifier, a couple big-ass capacitors and a voltage regulator. it never fried anything for the next two decades.

there is no system in your body that doesn't use quantum mechanics
but rabbit's system has issues the goat doesn't, there is 10 degree blind spot in front of the rabbit.

two states donated land to make something, the other state was Virginia.
hey hey now, they provided you with Slashdot Beta, a purely cloud based service
oh? what about aquatic animals(and mammals at that!) that used to be land animals, that went back to the sea?

oh really, just thing of the aweful weapons they could make with these technologies. and super soldiers.

except the frequency of supernova keep things very sterile toward the center

hunting not a sport? hunting doesn't involve excercise? practice? isn't fun? doesn't have an award if done well ? (dinner)
(no trophy hunting for me; you kill it you eat it or it's wrong)

fact, look it up. and also look up the incidence of infection for various types of sex, by gender.
