War Games: Russia Takes Ukraine, China Takes Taiwan. US Response?
Ukraine has good engineers - the Antonov the world's largest aircraft is their product, so if they wanted to, they would make missiles capable of this.

There are Physical Concepts that is Left Up To Magic
Where did you get this idea ?

There are Physical Concepts that is Left Up To Magic
Vector field can be simulated with three scalar fields.. It is just a matter of adding a couple properties per spot. If you don’t understand, it is magic, for you.. Once you know, it is no more magic, but knowledge..

Making some ethanol... [only for when you are reaaaaally bored !]
When you distill something, you must slightly exceed the boiling point of the substance. Check the ethanol chart, and you will have the answer to your question..

Making some ethanol... [only for when you are reaaaaally bored !]
Different states have different regulations. https://www.ncsl.org/research/financial-services-and-commerce/home-manufacture-of-alcohol-state-statutes.aspx "In 1978, Congress enacted Public Law 95-458 (H.R. 1337), amending the Internal Revenue Code to allow any adult to produce beer, without the payment of tax, for personal or family use. The beer produced per household may not exceed: (1) 200 gallons per calendar year if there are two or more adults residing in the household, or (2) 100 gallons per calendar year if there is only one adult residing in the household. " "Under 27 C.F.R. 24.75, adults may produce wine for personal or family use in the same amount as allowed for beer." (wine can have 3-4 times more ethanol than beer)

Sugar does not contain the nitrogen needed for yeast growth. People add some raisins for example.

Mass Production Of Graphene Oxide
"Before you can run you have to learn to walk".. "and before you walk you have to crawl".. i.e. start making simpler/basic chemical experiments, get lab equipment, learn how to separate mixtures of compounds, get ball-n-stick models to reproduce chemical compounds etc. etc.

..then maybe get to university first.. Chemistry, or quantum physics or so..

Can we extract coal bed methane of the North Sea ?
@studiot Didn't you notice that politicians don't answer reporters' questions?

Can we extract coal bed methane of the North Sea ?
Looking at the statistics of who is the largest producer and exporter of weapons is, of course, the most developed countries.. These are not "resources".. They are remains of archaic cousins of man and all living creatures.. squeezed by pressure, degenerated by temperature.. The amount of regulations and invigilation level you have in democratic countries is beyond imagination of the "politicians" of totalitarian states that existed centuries ago..

Can we extract coal bed methane of the North Sea ?
I already said decades ago "winter is coming".. They had more than enough time to prepare.. You don't start preparing food and shelter for winter when you see snow, but you have to do it in summer.. Democratic politicians think only about how to win the next elections. In U.S. even more than in EU - 2, 4 and 6 years terms (replaced every 2 years 1/3). When one complain ends, new one is already in progress.. They think of nothing else but "how to stay on the chair".. The result is senseless, stupid, legislation like e.g. "web cookies" & "unsubscribe mail address" (which resulted in ultra happy hackers and defrauders), "fossil tax" (which resulted in ultra happy financial sector and investors who can make yet another frauds on yet another financial instrument).. If ordinary people were well-educated scientists, politicians would have to listen to them to get elected, and "global warming" would not exist in a few months.. the all resources used to build crap like tanks, warships, warplanes and the all other weapons would be used to build solar panels and other renewable resource.. Countries that rely on the production and export of fossil fuels are in desperate straits, resulting in what you see this year.. In the local stock market, investors have an adage "even the dead jump up" (which is used when a company's share price goes bankrupt)

What for? Humanity should give up on fossil fuels.. and use them only minimally..

War Games: Russia Takes Ukraine, China Takes Taiwan. US Response?
More important was his death.. And the death of his mother.. and homelessness.. Who wants to jump into such a parallel Universe with up-to-date knowledge from this Universe World War II would have been very different.. That's why I'm here.. ..unless there is total determinism.... (caused by an error in the random number generator code...).

War Games: Russia Takes Ukraine, China Takes Taiwan. US Response?
You think and take Russians as if they were like US or European citizens.. They have been indoctrinated and brainwashed since ~ 1917.. Grand-grandparents, grandparents, parents.. all lived in fear of being sent to the gulag, shot, arrested, tortured, living without contact with the rest of the world. A little thaw in early '90 won't fix it in their brains. They are like slaves. Robots. They have been trying to survive in a hostile environment for a century. Those who have escaped brainwashing have already fled Russia whenever they can.

Recycling lithium batteries ?
The basic question is what is easier/profitable: mining lithium or processing existing used lithium batteries.

USING COAL PLANT EXHAUST TO CREATE ARABLE LAND AND/OR AID FAST GROWTH TREE FARMS
The most important nutrients are e.g. NH3, NH4OH, NH4NO3.. Do you see any sign of CO2 in them? No.. Fast growth requires artificial nutrients i.e. made by the chemical industry. CO2 is taken up by green parts of plants i.e. tree leaves.. Greenhouses are solid constructs which can have much higher concentration of CO2 than ordinary air, but they must be closed, so CO2 does not escape. Which limits height of plants by height of the construction. You don't seem to understand what soil is.... It is the remains of dead plants and other organisms, decomposed in the oven thousands and millions of years. Pumping CO2 into the soil.. ? Again, CO2 is taken up by green parts of plants i.e. tree leaves.. Hydroponics goes reverse route - do not use soil at all.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroponics

Do we really need complex numbers?
Use the right kind of tool for the right kind of job..

USING COAL PLANT EXHAUST TO CREATE ARABLE LAND AND/OR AID FAST GROWTH TREE FARMS
Plants need: CO2, H2O, NH3 and/or NH4OH and/or NH4NO3 and other nutrients with various other elements. Higher availability of CO2 will be of course welcome, but soon other bottlenecks will be reached in other areas. i.e. lack of light (artificial or from the Sun), lack of nitrogen-rich nutrients.

Hearing Magnets
An audio speaker is a mixture of a magnet and an electromagnet attached to a diaphragm (or reverse). When current flows through the electromagnet, it begins to tremble and causes air molecules to move..

Why can't the neutrino be dark matter?
I guess, he meant that they slowed down from their initial relativistic velocity to the frame of reference of the surrounding galaxy, so they are barely moving, only just as much as the entire galaxy in which they remain.
-
Why can't the neutrino be dark matter?
From time to time, rarely, the annihilation of an electron with a positron leads to the production of a neutrino and antineutrino pair. https://www.google.com/search?q=electron+positron+neutrino+antineutrino (in addition to their normal formation by beta plus and beta minus decay)

Python Selenium - element is not attached to the page document - once button is clicked
In the thread https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12967541/how-to-avoid-staleelementreferenceexception-in-selenium "This can happen if a DOM operation happening on the page is temporarily causing the element to be inaccessible. To allow for those cases, you can try to access the element several times in a loop before finally throwing an exception." "Generally this is due to the DOM being updated and you trying to access an updated/new element -- but the DOM's refreshed so it's an invalid reference you have.."

Preferred heating method ?
Admirable. Do you have all the walls properly covered with Styrofoam? It would help in decreasing energy usage. Why not to produce more for your friends and neighbors who don't have installation yet? How about making your own heated greenhouse for vegetable production?
