Submission + - Solar activity predicted to fall 60% in 2030s

sycodon writes: A new model of the Sun's solar cycle is producing unprecedentedly accurate predictions of irregularities within the Sun's 11-year heartbeat. The model draws on dynamo effects in two layers of the Sun, one close to the surface and one deep within its convection zone. Predictions from the model suggest that solar activity will fall by 60 per cent during the 2030s to conditions last seen during the 'mini ice age' that began in 1645.

I believe there is an opportunity for a Facebook like site that didn't operate on the principal of ever expanding features, ads, and the general megalomania of Zukerberg. Something that simple provided actual friends to connect, didn't inundate you with garbage, and actually believed in privacy.

Just need a few million $$ or some gullible "employees" to work for a promise.

There are already commercial grade ovens the precisely control smoke and hea pretty much any BBQ shop that does more than a few hundred pounds a day uses these.

  MIT is reinventing the wheel.
