Privacy Badger still works, and since it blocks trackers, it blocks most ads (especially the annoying javascripty ones)

Given your requirement regarding online research, the question should be:

"Search the internet for a classic computer science exam or job interview question, then find a matching answer on Stack Overflow. (Bonus points will be awarded if the answer you find is correct)."

Mostly agree, but NumPy arrays do have slicing (however much you may not like zero-indexed, exclusive-on-the-right indexing):

In [8]: a = np.array([[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]])

In [9]: a[0,:]
Out[9]: array([1, 2, 3])

In [10]: a[0:2,:]
Out[10]:
array([[1, 2, 3],
              [4, 5, 6]])

In [11]: a[0:2,0:2]
Out[11]:
array([[1, 2],
              [4, 5]])

I was lucky enough to hear Nancy Kanwisher give a talk summarising her lab's work, it's all pretty impressive. There are some ingenious experiments in there, yet they are still comprehensible to non-neuroscientists.

Dropping acronyms never works.

If it's not a word in English (or the language of the reader), the response will always be "what does that stand for"?

It's an international reactor, hence the "I" in ITER.

Duh.

They might know a thing or two about dealing with historical items, and they do have a museum devoted to air and space flight. (That said, the fact that NASA are asking for suggestions at all is encouraging.)

Isn't she cute :)

Coal contains mercury, along with other nasties. If the power used to light the bulb is from coal (in the US, it likely is), then an equivalent incandescent bulb results in more mercury release than its CFL equivalent.
