True, but it usually has significantly less - it depends how bitter you like your dark chocolate.

Also, some of the sugar in milk chocolate actually comes from the milk (milk is about 5% sugar IIRC).

Can they actually do that?

My kid cried this morning because I gave her a drink in the "wrong" cup. She cried yesterday because she didn't know what she wanted for breakfast. She cried the other week because I stopped her from poking herself in the eye with her fork.

Shame on me for treating her improperly :o)

What's that got to do with the 140 character limit?

My understanding is that decreasing size and increasing energy density are linked because creating better ways to build better nanostructures underpins both aspects.

Not true right now, but the article is all about miniaturising supercaps. Miniaturising supercaps to chip-scale could, in theory, massively increase the energy density such that it exceeds that of Lithium batteries. That still looks like it's a long way off though.

Any existing supercap which stores enough energy to power a phone for a day or more is much too bulky to fit inside a phone, so miniaturising supercaps would bring new applications.

The surprise should be removed by the fact that we've known each body's albedo for decades. I was surprised that the a space scientist working on DSCOVR wasn't aware of the differences in albedo, or was aware but hadn't actually pictured the difference in his mind. It just seems odd for someone in his position to be surprised by this.

The Moon has an albedo of about 0.1 (similar to coal), while Earth's albedo is three times greater, so this isn't really very surprising at all.

I agree the wages are absurd, but the fact is that Fox make an obscene amount of money out of The Simpsons, and it's only fair that a healthy chunk of that dosh goes to the people involved in actually making the programme.

It's the same with the football Premier League here in the UK. We have players that are paid £250,000 every week for several hours work (at most), and most people find that abhorrent. But that fact is that millions of people either pay the extortionate ticket prices, or pay Sky £50 a month in order to watch what these players are doing. All that money has to go somewhere, and it's only fair that a healthy chunk goes to the people actually playing the game that the public are will to collectively pay so much money to watch.

Whatever doesn't go to the people directly involved in the content ends up with someone even less deserving.

Of course, the people earning these massive sums could donate a large percentage of it to charity without even noticing. Feel free to blame them for not doing that :o)

Why would space probes have status LEDs? Think about it.
