Corrosion is well understood and can be handled. Where else (outside of earth) can you find 1G, near earth temperature/air pressure, free energy (solar), radiation shielding, an atmosphere from which you could make water if not air, and a relatively short (6 month) trip away ?! None of those are on Mars. Combine with a skyhook/elevator and drones to fly below the clouds and there are plenty of opportunities for exploration especially of the Maxwell Montes (11km high!) and Maat Mons (highest volcano). And perhaps could become a base to explore Aten/Apohele asteroids.
Your new meme is actually as old as time. And the 80s and 90s were not the "unusually calm" periods you think they were. Obviously you did not live through them and/or are ignorant of history. Not that things are great now and couldn't be better and weren't better years ago.
No doubt it can be defeated with loud recordings played from cell phones, etc. How long before students conspire in many locations to do these simultaneously at dozens of schools, thus making the millions spent wasted?
So what's wrong about "feeling different"? She must be an insecure person. Get over it. You are the diversity if you think different (that was Apple's motto wasn't it?).
What I want to know is: Do Nursing, Cosmetologist, or Secretarial blogs (or whatever traditionally female predominate occupations you want) fret about the lack of diversity in their industries? Or are only perceived male-dominate industries (like tech) subject to criticism?
Or maybe other people (relatives) paid for the big wedding?
But I read the same thing about couples who have big weddings tending to stay together 30 years ago, so this is VERY old "news".
My theory is that these couples just did not want to spend a similar amount for another wedding and figured that they could not count on many gifts from the same people who were invited the first time after that marriage flopped.
But none of these studies tell you how HAPPY people are in their marriages, which is the most important thing.
Next we may have a wave of same sex divorces which may change this analysis in ways I can't predict.
Yes. More broken is the graduate school application process that asks for (although they may not consider) undergraduate grades that may be decades old. And even more broken is a job application process that also asks for such grades and... WORSE only cares that you were once merely accepted to certain schools deemed elite by New York/New England firms by people that themselves could never graduate from. How well you actually did at such schools is unimportant.
What really matters is Productivity. If it took 100 hours to get the nice program compiled and working perfectly in a language, verse only 5 hours in another language that would be very significant. Ease of coding, number of errors, and maintainability (i.e. understandability from the readableness of the code) are secondary. Readability obviously is enhanced by the 'meta-code' in other words COMMENTS that could be added to nearly any language.
So what language are coders most productive in? (Naturally that depends on the application.)
Great idea. Add a pun tag too. Then make it all searchable by tag type.
Then they could focus on mostly science and tech news and add moderator points and change their name to some geeky unix or regexp character sequence...
Mod this up insightful please.

Forgot to mention future robotic mining of Venus for elements like aluminum, iron, titanium, manganese...

Much more valid than "Dr. Jill Biden"
On the bounce, while the Roseta is bob, bob, bobbin' along... keep bouncing.
Usually it is all over in 7 minutes. But by then many people could be dead unfortunately.

Note that ageism is an okay form.... and age is not a choice for anyone.

Note that there are about 260 hectares in ONE square mile.
Seems like enough chemicals to possibly use for fuel.
I take it back. Admiral Dr. Nicole Lurie is in charge. Supposedly.
Admiral Boris Lushniak (US Surgeon General), Dr. Wanda Jones, and Slvia Burwell would be in charge.

Has RPG been mentioned? Or languages such as BLISS ? BCPL ? WATFOR? SPITBOL? SAIL ?
So if I have a YAML or MP3 file, I can convert it...?

Sorry, but it is PL/I not "PL/1". The 'I' is a Roman numeral. PL/I PL/I PL/I. There never was a PL/1. Got it?
Ender's Game?
Still no plans to sell cover illustrations as posters, etc. ?
What about the odds of hitting Deimos?
