  1. If the water is moving you ll see multiple reflections of the sun overlapping eachother into a (single) blurry reflection.
  2. Why not just call it economy if there has been only one system ever ?? forms of govt are democracy, electorate, dictatorship, oligarchy, republic, though generally you 'll see a mixture of these. capitalism, socialism and communism are systems of logistics; aka how is the market satisfied/supplied.
  3. Why would you make a non-alcoholic beverage ?
  4. generally, stocks both go up and down, (when they significantly move) : they get rectified after being overvalued/undervalued. If you 're looking to make money you need to know what the real value of a stock is so you can buy when it's undervalued by the market.
  5. Has the speed of the light we observe been measured to be still at the maximum lightspeed. (aka didn't it slow down after millions of years of travel) I couldn't find it in a quick google-search, although there was an article suggesting light can be slowed through changing it's pattern.
  6. it would be 0.25 x 0.25 = ...
  7. he here's the article mentioned, the youtube video didn't add any relevant information to it. Dinosaurs aren't the only (famlily of) species to go extinct and humans aren't the first creatures to become self-aware.
  8. Only when the wold is different from the east or west will it make difference whether the molecule is more to the east ot west. Hmmm, presumably the deamon has put in some effort to get the effect you desire ... Are you paying him at least minimum wage ?? I 've never seen science been used correctly in politics, i actually wanted to make a thread about it, making some scientific standards for politics, but i realized it 'd just fail.
  9. As stated, it will differ per poison, (but also per person) some poisons you will never get used to, others, like alcohol, can be rather immunized to by the individual but you can't get a meaningfull discussion going since halve the participants are drunk And NO, you cannot reach 100% immunity against most poisons, mainly because too much of something will always be too much; people have died from drinking TOO MUCH (8+ liters) of water for example.
  10. 1 = a number 2 = a number 1 = 2 Now where's my nobel-prize ?? In highschool i seemd to be have mind for maths and not languages, since internet i 've learned more different languages then i can count xDD. If a language (of logic)| does not yield logical results, for example by seeing two different meanings covered by the same term, you should assume that this particular language does not use the terms in a way for you to get meaningfull results
  11. a little later according to wikipedia. My main-concern is/was that most people have a rough idea what macro means due to hearing macro-economic numbers(BNP) (maybe this only counts for me?) and i can easily see the terms get mixed/misunderstood( because it carries over the idea that evolution SHOULD and not COULD be divided in 2 parts) Anyway i see from your info that that micro/macro-evolution is actually well-defined, so i won't propose a name-change.
  12. yeah precisely. As i undertand inbreeding causes problems because a pair of chromosomes is identical. however with having multiple pairs of chromosomes it would mean that this effect/danger would occur per chromosome-oair, right ? Also, at OP, i ve heard of an islandic study of (reproductive) offspring getting best results from 2nd(?) degree cousings - i cant find it myself right(bit drunk and i dunno if you realyy care) now but if you re interested you should be able to find it.
  13. Macro-economics is about numbers and is mostly used to propagate political views/show that they're affordable, it is NOT a hard science, it is mathmatics applied to assumptions. Micro-economics deals with what people economically actually do, basically the exploration of the underlying assumptions of macro-economics. Hence, micro and macro are actually two distinct concepts in econmics. Now, in evolution i have no idea what would be macro... the calculation of how much bio-mass was available ??? making up different definitions of life ?? edit:it is my understanding that micro and macro are terms that came from economics and "flew "over to evolution.
  14. I thought it was the half-monkey-half-human. Anyway there is plenty of pieces missing, probably some predators ate it. Probably. However, we know DNA exists and is being created, and that is roughly enough; The creation of the first DNA is most likely coïncidence, and proving it could be created by accident does not prove it DID get created by coïncidence, so it would hardly solve any question.
  15. Ooh, she doesn't sound like one easy to convince. Personally, i 'd demand a threesome before marriage and bypass this whole cheating/hiding-thingy.
  16. Area54 said: "People are animals. Most of them never get over it. Perhaps you should."
  17. Isn't this the chance PER PAIR of chromosomes to be identical to each other ?
  18. ah, i see, he means the inner workings. But then, how many chimps know why banana grow from a tree ? They know that they do, and that's enough for them... just like the average smart-phone user doesn't need to be able to write their own OS system just to be able to use it.
  19. If you don't know how a smart phone works, buy one and you'll learn. Just like animals don't know what to do in (bio)nature but start learning by watching their parents and by trying out ... and occasionally just straght-up failing to learn their required skill(s) and die. (and no, we're not genetically engineered to deal with smartphones, lukcily for us, capitalists have engineered smartphones to be dealt with by us.)
  20. Basically, you 've just been curious about your friends and gathered some data, made some assumptions, and now you want to know whether that data matches the big data gathered by (scientific) organisations ? This is pretty good, it's how science generally works, only with very VERY high standards regarding how the data is collected(and used) hence why some members may have overreacted a bit when you passed your data off as "true" So, ARE you trying to turn your data into science ? if so, i recommend to check out the scientific method first so you know what you're getting yourself into. Or are you just curious about the data you collected? if so i recommend to post the full data tables you collected, leave out the graphs and wild guesses about height of IQ and just post the more/less IQ compared to you, if anything that data is probably the least corrupted.
  21. It's quite a big project, so don't expect to put a reactor in your backyard; more likely the "economic" model will involve huge amounts of government. Depends on the safety-precautions. But when government is involved, don't expect it to become cheaper.
  22. Just find some website that offer voice-chat with strangers over the internet. (skype/discord etc work as well, but you gotta bring your own, english-speaking, friends)
