  1. Scapegoats.. Has anyone here watched Navalny's documentary on corruption?
  2. In the early XIX century, the first real chemists extracted active ingredients from medicinal herbs, determined their chemical formula, and learned how to make them artificially in the laboratory. Later, they learned how these compounds react in the body and how they work to produce a healing effect. This made it possible to search for alternative compounds with similar effects and to design entirely new compounds with more potent effects. Indeed, if you don't know what their chemical compounds are, what their chemical formula is, and how they work in the body, it is controversial to use something that has so many unknowns.. Faith that they work play a large role in healing ("placebo effect"). Compounds from herbs that really work have undergone clinical trials, such as a blind experiment, double-blind experiment https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blinded_experiment
  3. ...if we increase the temperature, the ice at the North and South Poles melts. White (e.g. snow) surface reflects sunlight. Dark (e.g. water) surface absorbs light. The less snow, the less glaciers, the more water, the faster the remaining snow and ice melts.. Photos taken by satellites over several decades. https://www.google.com/search?q=annual+arctic+sea+with+area+graph
  4. China's version of the "Ukraine event": (if you sleep too long at the other end of the pond)
  5. Biological laboratories have every modern country (COVID-19 was discovered somewhere, after all).. If laboratories of no military significance are being bombed, it is no wonder that scientists fear the spread of viruses (such as COVID-19) that were in the lab.. An attack on a physics institute or nuclear reactor could lead to radioactive contamination of all of Eastern Europe.. "Russian forces have fired rockets at a physics institute in Kharkiv, which contains nuclear material and a reactor, Ukraine's national security service has claimed." "The Kharkiv Institute of Physics and Technology houses a nuclear research facility called Neutron Source, in the active zone of which 37 nuclear fuel cells are said to be loaded." https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/russia-kharkiv-nuclear-reactor-rocket-b2029663.html https://physicstoday.scitation.org/do/10.1063/PT.6.2.20220307a/full/ With current wind https://www.windy.com/?49.000,29.000,5 you will contaminate Crimea, Turkey, Georgia, and South and Central Russia.
  6. They are victims of twenty years of propaganda and brainwashing.. Imagine children of the Fox News on steroids.. The V.P. mainly uses boys from small the far east villages, poorly educated (and therefore easy to manipulate), from poor families, with alcohol problems. Such people are easier to give orders to. They have fewer family members living in Ukraine than the Muscovites. The U.S. is not free of such people either (hence the success of politicians who are openly evil, descendants of the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazis)
  7. The more he tries, the more intelligence fly away, the less the IQ of remaining.. so, the future does not look bright.. the only real victim of his actions is the Russian people.. What dictator wouldn't do this to stay in power? Such people would vaporize the entire population of the world.. The Communists murdered the old intelligence (in the early 20th century)... Then, they repeated the same thing a dozen years later.. Being a powerful, successful, and happy nation was never the destiny of the Russian people..
  8. The new anthem of the Ukrainian nation:
  9. Other numbers are growing as we talk.. Nobody took the destroyed vehicles out of Ukraine. They can be counted, for example, by analyzing satellite images..
  10. ..during an accidental mutation at the wrong time, such as cell division, a whole larger piece of DNA can be thrown away irrevocably.. if that part is essential for cell/organism survival, as in nutrition, the organism will not survive and spread such dramatic mutation to future generations.. but in this case some species of Rafflesia may have been feeding from yet another source, so they survived and spread genes that lacked the necessary part from its ancestors.. Predator can irreversibly lose ability to eat plants. Irreversibly lose legs or parts of body, internal organs which are no longer required to survival, etc.
  11. "Research published in 2014 revealed that one Philippine Rafflesia species from the island of Luzon, R. lagascae (a synonym of R. manillana), may have lost the genome of its chloroplast and it is speculated that the loss happened due to the parasitic lifestyle of the plant.[10]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rafflesia#Loss_of_the_chloroplast_genome https://www.google.com/search?q=plant+without+chloroplast
  12. So far Russia lost at least 33 airplanes, 37 helicopters, 251 tanks (as of 4 March, 2022) They lost twice as many soldiers in 10 days as in the entire 2nd Chechen War... which lasted.. 10 years...
  13. I think, I have kinda déjà vu.. we saw similar things last year in Afghanistan.. Why should 3rd world country pay for weapons? "Let them just attack us and leave them (weapons) alone on the street".. The only happy are the weapon producers.. ..not for a long time..
  14. When a scientist says that "light has no mass", he or she, means to say that "light has no rest-mass" and "light has no valid frame-of-reference in which the photon is at rest".. Did not you hear about Gravitational lens? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_lens
  15. No. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backpropagation
  16. Modern Russian flight plan...
  17. Kyiv vs Moscow, since 996 A.D.
  18. Have you looked at how many protons silver has and how many protons gold has? You can turn one atom into another by bombarding a carefully selected target with the appropriate "missile". This is done routinely by quantum physicists. e.g. Technetium-99 is created from Molybdenum-99, which is created from Uranium-235. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_molybdenum#Molybdenum-99 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technetium-99m_generator https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technetium-99
  19. "The difference between a drug and a poison is the dose" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_dose_makes_the_poison
  20. The ancient Greeks, in some city-states, forbade the sale of figs without permission. If a farmer/landlord/merchant disobeyed this law and was spotted by some sycophant, informed the rest of the public and denounced. The sycophant received a portion of the confiscated property. Sycophant is denouncer.
  21. ...he orders the murder of members of the non-violent opposition even in his own country..
  22. The 1st one can be implemented using hash algorithms MD5, SHA1, SHA256 etc: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_hash_function The 2nd can be implemented using Luhn's algorithm or variation of it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_algorithm Read the articles. There are examples there.
  23. Crimea-Russia Bridge. Target for "yesterday" for Ukrainian (or friends) airplanes, drones or missiles..
  24. Tanks and other tracked vehicles require fuel and dozens of people around them to protect them. They are provided by regular vehicles on wheels. Obstacles in the road slow them down and make them an easier target.
