And that is straightforward to impound. You cannot claim legal immunity from a foreign country and at the same time earn money from that country.

The app has a button to recolor all screens the right way. Solved in a millisecond.
they can throw fits as much as they like - the UK government will simply impound the due fines via the bank transfers from the companies which have booked banner ads. Claiming immunity from foreign laws, but doing business with foreign companies under these laws does not really work.
He already commented twice about this compound, the last one is https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/hexanitrogen-energies
The first post is from June 23. Regardless of this topic popping up on Slashdot now, of course with a sensationalistic slant, it is still yesterdays news for professionals. The paper made a few waves two months ago.
The Wikipedia article refers to a different compound. The one synthesized here is a chain, essentially two N3 azide groups coupled via a slightly bent bond.
The synthetic yeast genome project (the precursor to this project) is more or less complete (currently at about 70%). Most chromosomes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been successfully synthesized from scratch. We are not speaking of a few hundred nucleotides (that was state of the art a couple of decades ago), but millions, all properly wrapped up in the proteins stabilizing chromosomes in eukaryotic cells. This project is a logical extension.
accessible via this network?
I am surprised how lenient this is. For the faking of legal citations and precedents I would have expected immediate disbarment. I cannot think of anything more disgraceful for a legal professional.
So that demonstration is completely missing the point. F1 cars generate their downforce exclusively by carefully guided airflow, which is technologically much more demanding than just installing a suction fan.
The EU has always been unhappy with how low the effective tax rates for the big US internet platforms are - and they are now preparing a digital tax on these services.
Using Watts or AmpereHours, i.e. SI-based units is definitely and uncomfortably un-american. Especially in the current political climate.
Top-level researchers have generally already moved internationally across the globe multiple times during their career - one or two post-docs, junior faculty, assistant professor, full professor - these routinely require you to move whereever in the world your research profile is valued. These people are not scared by moving once more. And the language of research groups is English anyway, everywhere.
The EU is already formulating a program to welcome exiled top scientists with open arms and funding. China has had a similar program for some years already. If the brain drain really gets traction, this will harm the scientific competitiveness of the US for decades (but the university and college football teams will remain awesome and continue to make good television).
A surprisingly large fraction of the US Nobel Price winners are immigrants born and initially educated in other nations, not US-schooled native citizens. They were drawn to the top universities to start their scientific career. During their one, two or three decades in the labs toiling at their research projects they became US citizens before they received the Price.
Due to the current political climate, the top talents have begun to leave the US, not move into it. The EU is preparing a program to lure top US researchers to Europe, and so has China for quite a while.
Another moving target.
