Look: for years, if not decades, high school junior-year English classes have run drills on essay-writing, with help both from teachers and the kids evaluating each others' work. The more wealthy or less honest have been paying essay mills to produce "quality work."
The fact is that personal essays are bullshit and have nothing whatsoever to do with an applicant's intentions for college (or their capabilities). They should be outlawed. Period.
.... asking for a friend.
Also FBI and CIA building passes.
In this case the "NOT PEER REVIEWED" Asterix is much bigger than the Obelix.
Congrats: you just got whooshed. Clearly you are not a Gaulois.
It doesn't help that several states have enacted a "not-using-utility" tax, or even (Florida!!!) refusing to issue occupancy permits for a house that disconnects from the grid. Fossil-fuel companies encourage aka bribe politicians to make sure going independent is as difficult as possible.
I've beaten several cars.
I mean, shit, there's all sorts of ways to crash games mid-play.
I agree - this last year or so I've found (on Faceblecch) that I have to doomscroll just to find posts from people I know. Far too many ads and "you may be interested in..." junk thrown in the way.
Maybe the airport is actually providing therapy lamas
And nevermind about the putative "3-L lamas"
AI is only going to be as good as the instructions you give it. This is solved by some variant of giving the AI an instruction like "you will be honest and respect the law at all times".
I respectfully suggest you go back and read Asimov's Robot series. All of them; not just I, Robot.
And I bet you'd have put your money into alchemy even as Rutherford published the results of the atomic structure.
The correct analogy is this: yes we have the technology to turn base metals into gold (proton bombardment and so on). The cost of doing so is 100X the value of the gold produced.
"Fusion this decade" has been the mantra since the 70s. We have barely reached wall-plug breakeven.
Well, against the wishes of most Tesla engineers as well as all us other automotive-related techies, Musk removed both radar and sonar from the latest cars. That's pure ego and very very wrong.
Somehow SpaceX has avoided any such blind allegiance to him or to his giant machine-learning algos (that are still not working for Tesla's FSD)
A normal electron is still very small
So is a parallel one
But accelerate that little e- and watch it get even smaller whilst simultaneously getting more massive.
We USAians did the same thing when Reagan called the bird "SR-71" ; the original designation was "RS-71"
Then again, Reagan was a pretty nasty character too.
Copyright, maybe. patent: hell no. MIght as well say Stephen King could patent his books.
SO now vs. SO 15 years ago reminds me of the old "Eternal September" meme. The traffic is up 1000% and the number of reasonable questions (not the fraction of traffic) is down 90%.
That said, it's sadly predictable that, every time a company gets sold, the new owner decides profit margin is too low and clearly it's the fault of all those no-good slacker employees.
If they are concerned about space debris, why have it planned to orbit at 186 miles up at all?
Because Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.
So, your homework assignment is to calculate the total volume in, say, 175 to 190 miles altitude and +/- 20 degrees latitude. Compare with total volume of ALL satellites in any orbit
