A coastline may be infinitely long (coastline paradox) but the area of the ocean is not infinitely large.
Just think about it this way: go close to the coastline while still being 100% certain you are on land. No matter how precise (and therefore long) you measure the coastline, the area of the ocean can never be larger than the area inside of your 100% on land line.
This man is an absolute hero. Timbuktu was the cultural capital of west Afrika during the middle ages and housed many scholars and writers.
Its similar to a "library of Alexandria" type of collection of knowledge. Only that the manuscripts were spread over many families instead of a single location.
In 2012 during malis civil war, Al-Qaeda captured Timbuktu and started burning manuscripts. Dr. Haidara as curator of one of Timbuktus most important libraries organised the evacuation of the manuscripts by distributing then to civilians who would smuggle them out disguised as personal belongings.
4200 books burned.

But only if they are artificially bred. If hunted wild, it has an incredibly positive impact. They are a invasive species and are harmful to any ecosystem they were introduced to.
No, why would it? It will run code in the context of the current user which is absolutely enough to start a new process that will run in the background, download more code from a attacker server and allow remote access. The attacker will only have as much permissions as the user executing the code but that is enough to steal their files, run a keyloggers, steal their sessions for other websites etc.
They can try to escalate to the admin user, but when targeting private victims, all the data that is worth stealing is available to the user and does not require admin privs.
Almost all predator animals have a territory and they will fight for that territory to keep others out. Chimpanzees and other great apes have clan wars over territory. And they have social hierarchies where some get more food than others.
There is a 100% chance early humans were fighting each other long before the invention of agriculture.
Are you actually arguing exploitation is necessary? That any system treating all people fairly will result in everybody starving?
Feel free to let others exploit you, I will keep trying for the fair system
I don't think it is correct either, but consider this:
If the family is native american/settled before the civil war, but a single person married into the family who immigrated later, then the whole branch of the family tree falls under "immigrant in living memory".
Since no arena is specified I assume it to be the only logical place.
In space! (the winner is brought back to their natural habitat)
Everything else would be unfair to at least one of the parties.
I think the ants would outlast all the animals and insects. They might freeze solid and (some) might survive the unfreezing after the figh. Or they could form a giant ball where the ones in the middle survive. And who cares if 19kg die.
On the other hand, the oak would probalby last weeks and could sprout new leaves and roots again if given proper treatment back on earth.
So ... GO TREE!
They asked me how well I understood theoretical physics.
I said, I had a theoretical degree in physics.
Yes but "the biggest problem" is most certainly not the lack of insurance for the daughter. Its a untrained child playing with the live of a patient.
If somemebody drills a hole into my skull I dont give a shit about their insurance.
Insurance protects them not me. This is absolutely about the doctor putting the patient into a huge unnecessary risk without the patients consent.
Can't get it anymore. It is a controlled substance now because it is so highly addictive. Many people can never quit. Just look at how many google searches there are for "how to quit vim"!
Who defines "good hands"?
How do you assure the dictator stays good (corruption, dementia, general personality shift)?
What happens if the dictator is no longer good (died, see above, the world has changed and the dictator can not adapt)?
Sure the dictator can assign ministers for topics outside of their skillset and similar and a head physician to determine when a replacement is needed due to health reasons etc, but a dictatorship is always unnacountable. What if the physician coludes with the vice-dictator to declare the dictator unfit? What if the dictator is actually unfit but accuses the physician of colusion? It has no safety checks against its rulers other than revolution and coup.
Democracy has flaws but so does dictatorship and they are not limited to "what if dictator evil"
In germany the lottery is state owned and the tax is applied before money is added to the jackpot. So if the jackpot is 50mil you get 50mil
