No, you were poking fun at the cost of a trillion dollars, which you either made up or didn't bother to check after you heard it. Let's be clear about your intentions. I don't think you understand any of this. Your arguments are childlike, as if your experiences haven't taught you how to reason correctly. Like many conservatives, you have a caricature in your mind about most of the things you don't understand. It's what's held up progress for as long as humans have been around. Progressive thinking got us to the moon, while the conservatives argued it was a big waste, just like every other major innovation humans have accomplished. When it comes to progress, there's never a conservative contributing to the future. If you truly wanted to eliminate the need for DEI, your methodology is unacceptable. Your prejudices are too prevalent.

It's good, but it needs more accordion.

Andrew Coyne a columnist for leading Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail had this to say on the eve of Donald Trump’s second presidential inauguration - (quoted in full because of a paywall): https://www.theglobeandmail.com/.../article-trumps.../

Five cubits away maybe.

Fantastic. +1 I tried drag and drop, which usually works with non animated pics. @cpu68 you also need to read the article - it is quite easy going, never mind the formula they give.

Copy image, paste image. Does this work?

Perhaps you would be better served by asking questions, rather than trying to guess in subjects you do not know enough about. To fully understand your proposal you need to understand what the subjects are. Despite what Disney would have you believe, Fields are not emanations from a magician's wand or spread about by one. In this context, Fields constitute a propagation medium. Waves are a form of propagation in a suitable medium and simple wave (the sort we first meet and study) obey the principle of superposition, which is the mathematical name for the mechanism that causes interference. But some more complicated waves and other structures in the medium do not obey this principle. Some of these structures have been investigated as candidates for 'particles' or at least models of particles, formed out of the medium. vortices and solitary waves (also called solitons) are two such structures. Have a look at this animation of two solitons interacting without interference. http://www.acs.psu.edu/drussell/Demos/Solitons/collide-1.gif https://www.acs.psu.edu/drussell/demos/solitons/solitons.html Then if you have questions, ask away. I have a question. Can anyone tell me how to make the animated gif work on an SF page please ?

Not to defend the Bible as being literally true, but this is an argument from silence, i.e. a fallacy. (related: absence of evidence is not evidence of absence) Does the Bible say how much food and water/wine Noah loaded on board? Or how many times they urinated/defecated? Do we assume the answer is zero because it’s not mentioned?

Consider carefully: we're on his shopping list. Australia can only take so many and the Netherlands and Austria are pretty much full of American ex-pats. At some point, Americans have to stand up and reclaim their own country.

This silly. Rich elites are more often than not conservative (mostly in the fiscal sense, they like low taxes). Have you nit seen the many billionaires with Trump? Higher ed is associated with left leanings because it promotes critical thinking and associated questioning of the world and frequently own values. Clever kids realize that the world is complex and frequently beliefs they had crash against facts. That is why an authoritarian system wants an uneducated populace. I present the above post as evidence, especially the second paragraph.

That is just weird.(being polite)

\[ \gamma=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-v²/c²}} \] \[ \gamma\times0=0 \] Last comment by @Markus Hanke & @swansont spot on, I think. You cannot take electron density in proper frame for electrons while proton density in "rest" frame.

The speed of electrons in copper noted in my previous post imply you would have to apply 1011 volts to boost their flow speed to 0.1c

Trump would like to carve up the world between three strongmen leaders: himself, Xi and Putin. So he wants to annex Canada and Greenland, take back the Panama Canal for strategic access to both coasts and oceans by sea, get out of entanglements in Europe, which he sees an economic rival and nuisance with all its pathetic concerns over outmoded ideas like democracy and social welfare - and let Xi have Taiwan, once he has got the chips being made in Arizona. If Putin fights with the EU, so much the better. It's Orwell's vision of Oceania, Eurasia and Eastasia.

I think you’re right. With their last post it’s clearer to me what their misconception is. The wire’s length is only contracted in the electron’s frame, not the lab frame, so there’s no reason to expect the result they claim.

This articulates precisely the fear many of us in Europe have about what has happened to the USA - and the astonishment and consternation we feel about the mindset of the Americans who elected Trump. It is exactly what I meant (on @JohnDBarrow’s silly thread) about the yearning for an absolute monarch who will ride roughshod over the institutions and processes that sustain a working democracy. One hopes of course that the USA and the world will be saved by Trump’s incoherence and incompetence, when it comes to implementing these hare-brained ideas. But there are clever men in or close to the administration for whom Trump is the useful idiot, and who will try to forge policies out of the ensuing goat rodeo to their own advantage. In fact there is already a fight - between Bannon and Musk - over whose useful idiot he is! But one is left with a sense that fascism, or semi-fascism (fascism-lite?) is now on the march, across the world. It is extraordinary to me, as a post WW2 cold war child, that the USA should be leading this. It all seems to have been triggered by the election of their first black president. Slavery continues to cast a long shadow.

Hello and welcome! I am billie. I can help you in quires related to human mind i.e. mental health.

Recently half of the America hated Biden, now another half hates Trump. And they are indeed the two sides of the same coin: both they were accepted by ruling class (financial aristocracy) to become candidates, because both aren't a threat to the money and power of the middle class. Trump now tries to create an illusion that he is a "revolutionary", but he is rather a spoiler because all good he tries to do is immediately discredited by his terrible features.

In the Western world, the global elites are controlling the educational system, that’s why educated people usually vote for Dems. The Dems impose unpleasant things like transgenders in big sport, and Trump is finishing this. This is a single example, not the most important. The main reason why Trump won was the dollar inflation. The inflation is caused by the quantitative easing (dollar printing in fact). An important aspect of the program of Trump was the support of cryptocurrencies, and many people understand (or at least feel unconsciously), that the bitcoins provide a possibility to avoid “paying the inflation tax to the US government”. Supporting the cryptoeconomics is a really good thing Trump does now, as well as e.g. pardoning Ross Ulbricht.

Well the video highlighted the mission would highlight that women and minorities lead the mission. Which is ok. I am just poking fun of the fact that it is costing a 100 billion dollars. This mission is way behind. If we were on the moon in 1970’s why is it so hard to go back? Yes I know these women are good astronauts. Putting someone on the moon is great, but if you say first woman on the moon, $100,000,000,000. Eliminating the need for DEI, priceless.
