I don't see how you could say that's more likely without evidence, lack significant gaps in archaelogical finds between eras of human presence in a region.

You think the study of archeology, anthropology, genetics, and ecology across the entire Western academic system is being subverted to support DEI using a theory that existed long …

I don't think the purpose of this sort of research is to be immediately applicable, it more shows a direction that could be useful in the future. Shor's algorithm has not been used…

Sounds like it's a pretentious researcher trying to be clever.

The stated reasons is patriotism. The real reason is that the military buys a lot of airline tickets and the military member gets to choose from a list of flights from a variety of…

Not just big companies, government travellers too. There's a reason military is allowed to board first.
