> How is it possible that they cannot give me an accurate inventory of the items in the stores near me? It's absolutely intentional. It means you have to browse the store. And if s…

It includes the cleaning fee and Airbnb service fee, but inexplicably, excludes taxes.

But it's not really the "total price". It doesn't include taxes.

Only half?

The fuel burned by an aircraft is almost certainly the dominant portion of its lifecycle carbon emissions. I expect the carbon emissions due to its manufacture are negligible by co…

According to their propaganda, they are going to make jet transport cheaper AND faster AND greener. I see no evidence that this is at all realistic, and a lot of evidence to the co…

Agreed. Boom claims they will be "sustainable" because they are going to invent some kind of synthetic biofuel. Wait, it looks like I either misremembered that claim, or they have …

Those are features.

I'm a bit shocked that it would even be possible for a third party to implement such a thing without rebuilding Windows itself. Is it a matter of implementing "device drivers"?

"relatively inexpensive"

What's the TLDR on how to compile the C code to run in the browser?

The Economist is also like 100+ pages per week. Very hard to consume without significant dedication.

"The New York Post (NY Post) is a conservative[8] daily tabloid newspaper published in New York City. The Post also operates NYPost.com, the celebrity gossip site PageSix.com, and …

Yes, absolutely. Next question?

Does it not anymore? Or is it like KFC?

In my experience, ALL designs at $corp are "IP protected."

Deciding to culture the samples, versus just destroying them without analysis, must be accompanied by an interesting risk/benefit analysis.

The microphone analogy is particularly apt, because the signals are also audio-frequency. You can listen to them. Sometimes in the control room we play the output on a loudspeaker.…

This was in fact accomplished and is attempted for many of the detections.

Wait fees seem pretty reasonable. Maybe the solution is to have them subsidized by the government for qualified individuals.

So far all of the signals observed by LIGO are from sources that we expected would exist. The most exciting thing would be to observe an unexpected signal.

There is no upper limit to the wavelength of gravitational waves. However, the lowest frequency that we can currently detect is around 10-100 Hz. Diving the speed of light (3e8 m/s…

Extensive computer modeling is used to predict the expected waveforms, and then we fit the observed waveforms to the expected ones.

Also the experimentalists get very antsy when they/(we) can't touch the instrument. :-)
