Mostly not; they were awarded through competitive process. It's remarkably hard to get something frivolous through that.

What does happen a lot is that basic science isn't immediately impactful but has a modest chance of producing something really useful. For example the GLP-1 drugs were developed as a result of a study into gila monster venom. Nobody is going to say "gila monster venom is useful" but the basic research into how gila monsters regulate appetite turned out to be very meaningful.

There is no war, so just crimes

You don't have to imagine — that's exactly what happened

This appears to be where the image was published

They don't even need to modify the weapons; just shoot at peoples heads with weapons not meant for that

A huge amount of extra CO₂ showed up. We don't have a definitive answer as to where from.

Titles are a problem; they're all that almost everybody sees — click-through rates to articles are around 2.5% of the headline view rates. I try to increase that by using gift links and archived copies of articles; but that has a fairly limited impact on peoples' willingness to click in the first place.

Actually understanding means doing more than reading the headline, and that makes it very hard to get information across.

One which doesn't require professional installation has real potential to cut the cost of solar by making it about who can sell a good-enough panel the most cheaply. That hasn't happened so far in the US, and means that rooftop solar is something like 4x the price it is in other countries.

I think they require the disconnect to be built into the panel, but not 100% sure

Yes, but they don't scale to anything like the amount of CO2 people are adding to the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels. In practice, this means having to phase out fossil fuels faster

I suspect that the media diet of those affected makes the leopard completely invisible

Realistically you need to get them banned.

More that the structure of the legislation — where many of the benefits weren't immediate — made it easier for Republicans to win elections.

Yes

99% sure because few people do that and proxies are detectable

They need to not have any kind of power or authority. Training and supervision won't do it when the agency is filled with violent racisfs

Because its mostly true at the continent level.

Its a fascist assigned with Nick Fuentes

These were evaluated on a cost-effectiveness basis before being mandated. They are cheap and work.

What makes vehicles expensive is that its much more profitable to sell a huge luxury vehicle instead of a mid-sized sedan. So automakers build giant trucks with fancy interiors instead of cars the typical person can buy new.

Warmer temperatures got ice melting. This raised sea level a bit, and increased the rate of erosion
