Mineralization is a slow process, and the photo in the article could pass for a fresh tooth—which is why I looked to see if there were more precise definitions.


Mineralization is a slow process, and the photo in the article could pass for a fresh tooth—which is why I looked to see if there were more precise definitions.


Would a 10,000 year old tooth even be considered a fossil?
One technical definition defines fossils as remains “‘not demonstrably postdating the beginning of the Holocene” (i.e., older than 11,700 years).


Apple said his office received a tip Friday from an outside source that Moore was using a Flock camera to track a former acquaintance, and an internal investigation began immediately.
I wonder who the outside source was. Was it someone at Flock, or another third party able to monitor law enforcement searches? Or was Moore bragging to her friends about illegally stalking her ex?


It sounds like the key theorist that convinced you of this is Jeffrey Bub.
Has Bub himself implied that his criticism of Frauchiger and Renner’s conclusion contradicts special relativity?


What I like is to be pleasantly surprised, which requires leaving a degree of freedom to the chef.


“What we are trying to do is turn the machine’s parameters into numbers, and use that to standardize every single bowl.”
So once you’ve tried everything on the menu, there’s no reason to ever come back.


And on the rusted lid these words appear:
“WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND
THESE WORKS ARE PATENTED BY KITCHENAIRE”
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.


several sound-responsive structures could be built into a single flexible device, with each one reacting to a different sound frequency. “This would allow specific parts of the device to move, bend or vibrate, potentially leading to aerodynamic robotic devices that can change shape in response to sound,” he says.
I’m picturing Yondu’s whistle-powered dart.


Conversation logs between the lab and Luna show that the agent had created an attendance policy but later lost track of it, allowing the employee’s lateness to continue for months.
Sounds like Luna should look into firing itself.


It’s just a list of their customers.


I’m surprised the chip wasn’t sold on the black market before the missile was assembled.


Many overseas self-media vloggers have hailed the technology, calling it “the future of education,” China Central Television (CCTV) reported on Tuesday.
Is “overseas self-media vloggers” the Chinese term for influencers?


Say someone else takes the visual result of the font’s output and re-posts it as plain text.
If anyone searches for that text, their version will come up as the first (and only) published version. Anyone who tries to reference it will cite their version instead of yours. You’d have to convince the court that a clearly different text you published earlier is really the same thing, as long as you view it with a special font that magically transforms it into the text you’re trying to claim—the judge would just as likely think you’re a copyright troll.


If the underlying text says one thing but the font makes it appear to say something else, which version does the author own the copyright to?


How does he envisage surface-to-air missiles being used against him by current allies? Defending Greenland from a US invasion?


The Dane County Sheriff’s Department got the wrong man. I got the right man. The wrong one was delivered to me as the right man, I accepted him on good faith as the right man. Was I wrong?


He’s just a man who doesn’t know how to sell a contradiction.


It’s interesting that most mountain systems, including the Rockies, Sierra Nevada, Alps, Andes, and even the Himalayas, have dense, continuous networks; but the Appalachians look like a big hole.
Other odd gaps are the upper Amazon, Poland, and east/central China.


Reminds me of Judge Holden in Blood Meridian, who sketched ancient artifacts in his personal notebook and then destroyed the originals.
