What is the most advanced invention in the world? | Determining the most advanced technology ever invented is a subjective matter and can depend on various factors such as the criteria used for evaluation, the context of application, and the specific timeframe under consideration. However, there are several groundbreaking technologies that have had a significant impact on human civilization and are often considered among the most advanced inventions. Here are a few notable examples:
Internet and World Wide Web: The internet and the subsequent development of the World Wide Web have transformed the way we communicate, access information, and conduct business. These technologies have connected people across the globe, revolutionized industries, and opened up new possibilities for collaboration, knowledge sharing, and social interaction.Semiconductor Electronics: The invention and advancement of semiconductor electronics, particularly integrated circuits, have been instrumental in the development of modern computing, communication, and consumer electronics. Integrated circuits, commonly known as microchips, have enabled the miniaturization and increased functionality of electronic devices, leading to the proliferation of smartphones, laptops, and countless other high-tech gadgets.Space Exploration Technologies: The field of space exploration has witnessed remarkable advancements, including the development of rockets, satellites, and space probes. These technologies have allowed humanity to venture beyond Earth's boundaries, leading to groundbreaking discoveries, satellite-based communication systems, weather monitoring, and scientific exploration of the cosmos.Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering: The advent of biotechnology and genetic engineering has transformed the fields of medicine, agriculture, and industry. Technologies such as gene editing (e.g., CRISPR-Cas9) and DNA sequencing have revolutionized our understanding of genetics and provided tools to manipulate and engineer genetic material. These advancements hold significant promise for personalized medicine, disease treatment, genetically modified crops, and sustainable bio-based industries.Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning: The development of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) has revolutionized various domains, including robotics, autonomous systems, data analysis, and decision-making. AI systems can process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and perform complex tasks previously exclusive to human intelligence. Applications range from voice assistants and self-driving cars to medical diagnostics and predictive modeling.
It is important to note that technology continues to evolve rapidly, and what is considered the most advanced today may be surpassed by future breakthroughs. Additionally, the evaluation of advanced technology may vary based on individual perspectives, fields of interest, and the societal impact of specific inventions.

What skills will help anyone make a significantly higher salary as an employee? | See opportunities where others only see threats.
The ability to understand and analyze threats to a business is important. This is especially true if it’s a large, established multi-billion dollar business that needs to focus on protecting its downside.
Companies have entire teams focused on identifying and neutralizing potential threats. Sometimes this is necessary, but oftentimes it’s not. Many threats are not as severe as they initially seem. And if a business spends all its focus on threats, it will no longer innovate and no longer grow.
If you want to be a 10xer, you need to be the one discovering massive opportunities for growth. And the younger the business, the more time should be spent on growth vs. threats.
This is hard because the threats are real. They are important. They could really hurt the company. And the big threats should definitely be tackled head-on. But not every threat needs to be addressed. And even those that do need to be addressed don’t need to be addressed fully.
It takes experience to discern which threats are important to mitigate and which threats are less severe. Employees with large company experience are often in “threat-mode” more than they should be. This gives you a potential advantage.
Smart employees at start-ups often spend over 80% of their time on threats and less than 10% on opportunities. But the 10xers spend over 50% on opportunities.
That’s how you can start to become a 10xer; spend more time on finding opportunities than you do identifying threats.
Really smart people are great at pointing out threats. 10Xers also point out threats … but 10Xers are much more likely to point out big opportunities.

How much does centrifugal force generated by the earth's rotation affect an object's weight? | The earth’s centripetal force is gravity, but you seem to be asking whether the earth’s rotation affects what we call weight.
The earth’s rotation does affect weight, in three ways (heh). One, the inertial effect due to rotation (usually known as centrifugal force) causes a measurement of weight to be lighter at the equator than the poles. Two, the earth’s rotation causes a bulge at the equator of twenty kilometers, which means objects at the equator are farther away from the center of mass of the earth, and therefore weigh less. Three, the oblateness of the earth means that you can't just assume that all the mass is concentrated at the center of mass. The last two tend to cancel each other.
The total effect is about 1/2 percent increase the from equator to pole.

EU chiefs have failed to clinch a deal for a new 96% effective Novavax Covid-19 vaccine. The EU say Novavax is dragging it’s heels. Novavax say they are wary, following the AZ vaccine program. Who is telling the truth? | Obviously, in the current situation, there is greater demand for vaccine than there is supply.Naturally, all vaccine manufacturers will be making product as fast as they can, but none can guarantee timely delivery because of the uncertainties of the manufacturing and supply processes .I suspect the EU are demanding unrealistic cast iron delivery guarantees and that Norovax are naturally wary of signing up to that because of the possible damaging outcome.

Without appealing to emotion or using ad hominem attacks, how can I convince conservatives that gun regulation is a good thing? | That will be a bit hard to do, because it's a bad thing. One thing you COULD do is be willing to answer questions DIRECTLY without changing the subject. That would show that you're honest and like Socrates, you're willing to follow the argument (and evidence) where it goes.
For instance, I've asked this question to many progressives but they refuse to answer it directly...
Here are two situations you may find yourself in...
A) You are sitting in a restaurant with about 50 other people. A gunman comes in , blocks any way of escape, and begins to shoot and kill people. The only person in the restaurant with a weapon is the gunman.
B) You are sitting in a restaurant with about 50 other people. A gunman comes in , blocks any way of escape, and begins to shoot and kill people. Other than the gunman, there are three other people in the restaurant with hidden weapons (a little old lady sitting in the middle of the restaurant with a gun in her purse, a 20 year old young person sitting on a window seat with an ankle holster and a retired policeman with his family sitting on the opposite wall).
Here's my question: In what scenario do you feel there was the better chance you would survive? In scenario A, or scenario B?

In the US, is it better to send your kid to a public or private school? Are private schools better than public schools? | private schools are better than public schools is ongoing. While [LINKED_TEXT: private schools] [URL: http://www.oakhillacademy.com/] may have smaller class sizes and more resources, such as better facilities and more experienced teachers, public schools often offer a more diverse student body and may have more specialized programs and services. Ultimately, the quality of education a student receives depends on many factors, including the individual student's needs and the quality of the teaching staff. It's important for parents and students to carefully consider their options and choose the best fit for their needs and goals.

Which country is a better place to live in: Singapore or Hong Kong, and why? | In 2013 Jan, a friend rented a studio apartment on HK island side, close to the MTR (5 min walk), for HK4300/mth. It is newly renovated, clean and eco-friendly (with T5 lamps). Enough to put a twin bed, hang 7 foot of clothes, a 4 foot table, a fridge, LED TV with ant., a small shower with toilet. On the 2nd fl. w/o lift. Quiet, away from the main busy road. With your own letter box.In Singapore, I doubt you can rent a studio apartment like that for that price (S$800). Even if you are willing to live in a smaller place there is no such place.

Pluto Time | Pluto – NASA Solar System Exploration | Are there shadows on Pluto or is it too far from the sun?
There are definitely shadows on Pluto. Pluto’s noon lighting is similar to dusk and dawn on Earth, and similar to adequate indoor lighting. There’s plenty of light for both color vision and shadow.
You can see what lighting is like on Pluto by visiting this NASA website and punching in your location: [LINKED_TEXT: Pluto Time | Pluto – NASA Solar System Exploration] [URL: https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/planets/dwarf-planets/pluto/plutotime/] .

Which was the more crucially important or decisive battle in WWII, the Battle of Kursk or the Battle of Stalingrad? Why & how compared in importance? | 100% Battle of Stalingrad.
Historian and West Point Professor, Robert Citino, put it this way. The German soldiers that showed up to Stalingrad looked like professional hockey athletes. They were Germany’s cream of the crop. They’d just conquered all of Ukraine & Crimea in less than a year, and were closing in on the Volga River. The fall of Stalingrad would’ve closed the Soviet Union’s access to their most vital war resource… Caucasus oil.
Citino noted that after Stalingrad, Army Group South’s soldiers looked like a high school football team. They were no longer the seasoned and highly professional 25 year olds that the Soviets wasted nearly 3 million men to finally take down. Plus, the Soviets succeeded in keeping open the highways to Caucasus oil, allowing them an endless supply of oil for their massive tank divisions. Without Stalingrad, Kursk couldn’t have happened.
Not only was Stalingrad important because it kept open the roads for oil, but also because it took Hitler’s most professional soldiers out of the fight. Simply put, the German Army wasn’t the same after 1942. They were now facing an army with endless oil supplies for the rest of the war. And they had to do with their B-Team.

Does your dog ever act as if you offended him/her? | All the time! LOL. Sammi the Newf (and the brown dog in my profile picture) is the mistress of the offended look. Sometimes she’ll sleep on the couch (which is fine in our house) but if she’s sitting in my spot I’ll tell her to move. Oh, The Look I get. She will always do what I tell her, but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to get one of her looks. And make no mistake, her offended look is different from the other looks she has perfected over the years. Sometimes if I do something that’s really offensive to her she will turn her back on me. :P

What is the advantage of eSIM over a normal SIM? | eSIM (embedded SIM) offers several advantages over a traditional physical SIM card:
Flexibility: With eSIM, you can switch between different mobile network operators and data plans without needing to physically change the SIM card. This flexibility allows you to choose the best network coverage, rates, and services based on your needs and location.Multiple Profiles: eSIM-enabled devices can store multiple operator profiles simultaneously. This means you can have multiple phone numbers or data plans on a single device, making it convenient for those who need separate personal and business numbers or frequently travel between different countries or regions.Remote Activation: eSIM cards can be activated remotely, typically through a QR code or an activation process provided by the mobile network operator or eSIM provider. This eliminates the need to visit a physical store or wait for a physical SIM card to be shipped to you. It offers convenience, especially when you're in a different country and need to quickly access mobile services. [LINKED_TEXT: Roaming eSIM Card] [URL: https://www.onesimcard.com/esim/]Cost Savings: eSIM cards can provide cost savings, particularly when traveling internationally. Instead of relying on expensive international roaming services, you can switch to a local operator or choose a more affordable international data plan specific to your destination. This can help you avoid excessive roaming charges and potentially save money on communication expenses.Device Design: eSIM cards are embedded directly into the device during manufacturing, eliminating the need for a physical SIM card slot. This allows for slimmer and more streamlined device designs, creating more space for other components or enabling manufacturers to make devices more water-resistant.Easy Management: Managing eSIM profiles is typically done through the device's settings or a dedicated app. This makes it easy to switch between profiles, activate new ones, or manage data plans without requiring physical SIM card handling or contacting customer support.
It's worth noting that eSIM adoption is still growing, and not all mobile network operators and devices support eSIM technology. Before considering an eSIM, ensure that your device is eSIM-compatible and that your mobile network operator or eSIM provider supports eSIM activation and usage.

What is an effective way to teach a lesson for those who are slow to understand? | First, don’t punish them for being “slow.” Explain things clearly. After that you will see they they are not slow because they trust you.

Was the coronavirus predicted by Nostradamus? | The recent coranovirus spread for the month of March 2020 has been revolving around Italy which is now being the epicenter of european spread, to Iran, Middle East, Africa and India.
This is one of Nostradamus unsolved quatrains for 5 centuries till now. Please have look at his quatrain Century III, Quatrain 75. .
“Pau, Verona, Vicenza, Saragossa”(Saragouffe),
“Shall be hit by the distant swords, the country (lands) wet with blood,
“So great a plague will come with the great shell,
“Though the Relief be near, and the remedies shall be far off.”
So far we have known only that the first line meant the towns in Italy (as per Theophilus de Garencieres who spent his life deciphering Nostradamus predictions), the rest of the quatrain was a puzzle ( words like blood, plague, shell, relief and cure ) because there was no outbreak in Italy so far.
Now, we could connect with the recent events in Italy: This should be close to getting near to understanding Nostradamus predictions.
First Line : Cities in Italy. Pau is a municipality in the Sardina region of Italy, Verona, Vicenza are still in Italy, Verona is a city in northern Italy’s Veneto region, Vicenza is a city in the Veneto region of northeast Italy and Saragossa in Spain.
Second Line: He mentions blood, he must have seen in his vision the Flag of China (Flag color). In other quatrains also he mentions the communist China as red or blood.
Third Line: He mentions Great Shell (means airplanes), Of course Nostradamus in the 15th century would have seen an airplane in his vision and would have tried to assume the shape of airplane as shell). We know that Covid 19 spread through air travel to Italy through a passenger who visited China. Italy Covid -patient one – identified as “Mattia” – who remains seriously ill in hospital in Pavia, south of Milan, the man’s wife recalled he may have had contact with a friend recently returned from China
Fourth line : Relief near but remedies very far… well we know that there are no vaccines yet but Nostradamus gives us a clue that relief is near…..but when he means remedy is far does he mean the US pharmaceutical companies or from China.
Its seems now that the plague he mentions in Line 3 could be Coranovirus.
For more readers who want to delve in Nostradamus, you should also know that al his quatrains was published in London, 1672, deciphered and translated by Theophilus Garencieres, who was a French apothecary who spent most of his life practicing in England
Born in Paris, Garencieres (1610–1680) studied the prophecies of Nostradamus at an early age, and these had a lasting effect on him. He studied at the University of Caen, which he left with a Doctorate of medicine in 1636. To avoid religious persecution, he moved to the University of Oxford during the 1640s, which finally granted him the same qualification in 1657. He was the first to translate Nostradamus book of prophecies into English.

Why don't elite soldiers and Navy SEALs have physiques like Dwayne Johnson or Vin Diesel? | Arnolds or the Rocks physiques would likely require hundreds of grams of protein daily, very intense hypertrophy routines, and would not include lots of running. Big machines use big fuel. I would assume field conditions of the elite would not be conducive to bodybuilding. That said, I am certain that there are some jacked and muscular in those units…just not to the level of DJ or Arnold (I never found VD to be that muscular).
|
Is the term "illegal immigrant" meant to apply to the person or the offense, similar to calling a convict a "murderer"? | Illegal immigrant is the term used to describe someone who has entered (immigrated) to a country without the lawful processes. E.g. arrive on a tourist or student visa and overstay, or cross a border without passing the appropriate immigration point.
I can't say for every country but in the UK overstaying is not usually a crime (offence) just means they don't have the right legal authority to be in the country and can be removed (after due process).
A person who is bringing illegal immigrants into the country is a different matter. However some are civil penalties not criminal.
Illegality is not synonymous with criminality.

What are your silly little parenting tricks that you're so glad you discovered? | Teach your children about the little voice in the center of their heart.
My daughter was telling me about an event in her school. A girl in her class drew an apple, and when she was done, said out loud: This drawing is garbage, utterly terrible!
My daughter was confused: But, mom, her apple looked so cool! It wasn’t terrible at all!
This story was another opportunity for me as a mom to remind my daughter of something we spoke about since she was a toddler.
It is something really simple but deeply beautiful and true, something we forget to remind ourselves of, and almost never teach our children.
I told her:
There are many people who love you and who will cheer for you: your mom, dad, relatives and friends. However, there will be moments in your life when you feel sad, discouraged, frustrated or scared, but find yourself without those people near you to root for you and cheer you on.
In those moments a little voice that lives inside your heart will speak to you. What it will say depends on what you teach it and what you put inside your heart now, in peaceful times.
Whenever my children do something good, accomplish any little progress or victory, I remind them to congratulate themselves. I jokingly say:
Don’t forget to give yourself a high-five!
When my children fail at something, make a mistake, or are disappointed about something they didn’t do well, I encourage them to be kind and loving to themselves, and to continue on their way, accepting occasional defeat as a normal part of life.
I reminded her of these times. and continued:
There will be moments when you will feel that things aren’t going the way you wish, and there will be people in your life who will make things difficult for you. In those moments the little voice inside you can make all the difference.
There are people whose little voice tells them negative things. When they don’t succeed in something, the voice tells them that they are bad, losers and that they deserve to be defeated. Their inner voice scolds them, making them feel even worse.
On the other hand, there are people whose inner voice is their ally and their biggest cheerleader. When they are down, it comforts them, saying all will be ok. When they fail at something, their inner voice encourages them to try again, reminding them of many times they did something well. When they are angry, their inner voice calms them down. It roots for them, holding their hand in times when they are alone, without those who usually support them.
My daughter loves this story, and remembers it as a game in her everyday life. I made it into a fun exercise, so she easily and spontaneously goes to it. When she studies or draws and makes a mistake, I sometimes hear her saying to herself: I can totally do this!
When I see her being this gentle and supportive towards herself, my heart feels as if thousand flowers sprung into bloom inside it.
We cannot be there for our children all the time, and more importantly, we should not aim to be. We should not be constantly jumping in, whenever they face trouble or difficulty as they make their way through life. However, we can give them tools which will help them gain confidence and develop inner self-support, crucial for emotional stability and well balanced identity.
This story about inner voice, little cheerleader inside our children’s hearts, is an useful parenting tool to help our children learn that it is all right to love themselves and treat themselves gently, as well as be their own motivators, encouraging, comforting and guiding themselves as they face different challenges of their lives.
Essence of parenting is being your children’s wings only until their own are strong enough for flight. Then it is time to encourage them to use their own wings, falling in love with the beauty and wonder of flight.
Do not forget this though:
Our children will believe in their ability to fly only if we believe in them first.

Maharashtra Institute of Technology (MIT)M.I.T. College of Engineering (MITCOE)MIT Academy of Engineering (MITAOE) All 3 colleges are affiliated to the Pune University. MIT & MICOE are located in the heart of Pune city i.e. in Kothrud area while MITAOE is about 20 Kms away from city i.e. at Alandi. But still MITAOE may lead in cut offs because now its an “Autonomous Institute” (from 2016–17 batch).Fees-Fees is nearly same for all 3 colleges , they can differ only by 4–5 thousands. Life at Campus-If you are addicted to city life, then you must opt for Kothrud Campus. Here,You will get the real feel of “Pune City Life” as its one of the most prestigious areas of Pune. You will get all variety of food stuff, stationary,hostels, flats on rent and all other facilities which you will need. While at Alandi campus you will surely miss many of these things. But both campuses are very clean and beautiful. The dome shaped buildings make them different from others.Events-MIT, Kothrud is known for the variety of events which it hosts. Huge number of Students across the country attend various Technical events such as Texephyr, Nirmitee, Tesla & other Non Technical events such as Summit, Bhartiya Chhatra Sansad etc. every year.Faculty-Faculty of all the 3 campuses is nearly same in quality but most of the experienced teachers are at main MIT college. But don’t worry, because in engineering, your own study & hard work matter the most .Placements- MIT institutes follow central placement system. Placement procedure is generally held at main MIT kothrud campus hence students of Alandi campus have to travel every time and come at Kothrud. But this scenario may change from 2016–17 batch as MITAOE has got autonomy.Looking at the stats of last few years, Placements of Comp, It, Entc are far better than other branches .But it may change in coming future. Surely, 4 Years in MIT institutes will definitely be the most enjoying and memorial years of your life. :) Cheeers !!

If you agree with Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan that its time to cut Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security because the deficit has skyrocketed, what percentage of cut to each program would you support? | Since I’m a wealthy American I favor eliminating - completely - all Social Security and Medicare programs. Put whatever monies are in those programs into the general fund in order to lower taxes.
Capitalism is focused on helping those who help themselves, not the “rest of humanity.” The less taxes that are imposed the better for the economy. Trickle down does, in fact, work despite what those lying liberals say.
Remember the stunning success of the United States during the period between 1781 and 1789 - before our current Constitution was enacted permitting the government to assess tax. We were a stunning superpower then. We ruled the world. What happened?
We began to tax people and therefore destroyed the future of the United States.
“If you are poor you are welcome to starve and die,” Congressman Ryan and Senator McConnell say. “Trust us, you won’t be missed.”
Then my wealthy friends and I, along with Paul, Mitch and the rest of the members of Congress, can celebrate this most efficient way to reduce the population of the planet. Remember the mantra of the GOP and today’s ruling class:
No Money = No Bueno
Thanks for listening.

His first owners were in the military and they wanted to train him to be a military dog but they had to go to Japan and could not take him so this 100-pound pure breed german shepherd that only knew sit and loved his toys more then anything in the world needed a home. at the time I had no fence so I could not keep him just yet so I had a friend watch him for a few months and well then another few months and I got hope a stray who at first was going to stay the night but ended up living at my house.

Why did Will Smith slap his co-star at the Oscars? | A bad joke by Chris Rock…
Background- 1) Will Smith's wife Jada has alopecia and hence has chosen to go completely bald… In a society where beauty standards dictate among many things a thick Mane of hair, this is quite a statement… 2) Jada and Will may or may not have an open relationship although previous interviews have implied so and Jada got involved with a man (hence an affair) that perhaps violated agreed upon boundaries of the relationship… 3) GI Jane is a fairly old movie starring Demi Moore where she went bald…
Will Smith slapped rock because his wife was uncomfortable with the joke and then shouted at Rock to keep his wife's name out of his f***ing mouth…
That's the gist of it all…
Will Smith probably needed a show to not just Chris Rock but also the world that he would defend his and his wife's honour (old school style)… A stupid gesture for sure but hey he got his Oscar and maybe Jada did appreciate it, and it gave the world something other than covid or ukraine to talk about…
Btw, Ukraine ftw…

AND fathers have obligations without choices .
In child support fathers have less rights than criminals .. a father does not have “right” to a lawyer as a violent criminal does a court appointed lawyer

How can cells be seen with the naked eye? | Not really if you want to see their shape, but we can certainly see plenty of them thanks to either flashing position lights, or as glinting pinpricks from the sun reflecting off them from beyond the horizon, close to dusk or dawn.
The only thing large enough that you might be able to make out the shape, if you catch it silhouetted against the moon (and really, binocs or a small telescope still help) is the ISS, because compared to most satellites it is both huge (over 100 metres across when most are only 1 or 2 metres), and travels in quite a low orbit (about 400–800km, hence its very rapid ~90 minute transit around the world), making a tiny but definite H-shaped speck against a bright background.
(it also transits the sun, but attempting to see THAT with the naked eye is a BAD IDEA)
Oh, and of course, if you do manage to spot it racing across the face of the moon, you just saw two satellites for the price of one :)
Annoyingly, if any of the other inner, rocky planets had moons large and high-orbit enough to be worthy of mention (Deimos and Phobos are essentially captured asteroids, and both tiny and in extremely low, rapid, inexorably decaying orbits, so ignore them), then there’s a very good chance we would be able to make them out from Earth as separate entities… but they don’t. Crying shame, really.
(Pictures taken by the Mars rovers have shown that our moon is totally visible as a separate and indeed clearly circular object passing around the Earth… at least, to its high-rez cameras. Scaled for human vision, we would at least see a bright blue dot with a grey / dimmer white dot next to it, in relative positions that changed with each daily sighting.)

What scary gut feeling did you have that turned out to be true? | During the COVID lockdown my family and I took to walking the woods behind our house in Colorado. One afternoon while walking my then youngest, four years at the time took the lead. Then something prompted me, “Get her.”
I am so glad I heeded that nudging. I doubled up, held her shoulder and pulled her back. A few steps ahead of her was a rattlesnake, stretched across the trail, sleeping. I have never been so thankful for heeding my intuition as I have that day.

How many countries have you travelled to and which are they? | Although I have an airline ground staff background of twenty two years, I haven’t really travelled to that many countries as I went back to the same places time and time again. These most frequented places were the USA, Monaco and South Africa.
So I’ve actually only been to 16 countries and that includes skiing with the school to Austria and transiting Brazil (Rio) trying to get back to the U.K. from somewhere? :)
My list is USA, United Arab Emirates, Uganda, Tanzania, Spain, South Africa, Monaco, Malta, Italy, Greece, Germany, France, China, Brazil, Barbados and Austria.
As travel was almost free we made the most of it. So at the end of a four day shift a colleague and I would board the flight to Washington, arrive before we left due time differences. We would sleep, eat and then shop until we dropped, take a taxi tour enroute to the airport and arrive in the UK in time for work. It was crazy looking back but we loved it and did it often.
I never knew my colleagues age until she died but we got on like a house on fire, she was actually twenty years older. Age is definitely just a number! 👵
However I asked my son for a list of his travel destinations. I had taken him on his first flight at a few months old to Monaco.
He must have acquired the travel bug then. I was exhausted just reading it! 😂

If Martian soil is toxic, can't be terraformed, and there is no way to retain an atmosphere, why is Elon Musk so determined to plant a colony there? | Because he’s Nuckin Futs.
The Sahara is a far more hospitable environment.
A colony COULD be built, using some technology to transform the surface into a giant indoor city; but this technology does not exist, and anyway the moon would make more sense.
But clearly he’s engaged in a PR stunt, since Mars is catchier than the moon.

What is the string theory about? | Over the last 3 decades string theory has emerged as the leading hope for the unification of general relativity and elementary particle physics. Gravity is currently explained by Einstein’s theory of general relativity. The electromagnetic, the strong and the weak forces are described by quantum field theory, which forms the theoretical basis for the Standard Model of particle physics. From an empirical point of view, the standard model has provided physicists with an immensely successful account of elementary particles, but it ignores the effects of gravity, which is negligible at the quantum level in all but very few scenarios (e.g, black holes). The result is two incompatible approaches: the theory of general relativity, which is applicable at large scales, and the standard model, which is applicable at the quantum scale. This situation is deemed extremely problematic and a successful unification of the four forces, or a quantum theory of gravity, has been become for many theorists, the “Holy Grail” of physics.
The difficulties in drawing any clear demarcation between science and non-science emerge clearly when we take into account the fact that string theory is not really a theory, in any logical sense, but rather an attempt to construct a unified theory of quantum gravity and elementary particle physics.
Physicists have found that the equations of superstring theory “have many solutions”, each “corresponding to a universe with different properties”. (MULTIVERSES). Yet, as Green points out, the case in string theory is admittedly different, insofar as “each different solution defines a different set of particles and fields,” not merely a different space-time geometry. In recent years a number of string theorists, most notably Susskind, have interpreted this situation, not as a failure of string theory, but as an indication that our conception of the universe must be radically revised.
String Theory needs a deep understanding of advanced Mathematics and huge investment in technology to test it.(e.g.,to find supersymmetry b/w particles).

A bottle and its cork are worth 11 euros. The bottle is worth 10 more than the cap. How much is the bottle and how much is the cap? | Since the bottle is 10 time the cap and together gives 11. It is obvious that cap is 1 and bottle is 10
But if you want a conventional methode
Let price of bottle=x and price of cap be y
(Together gives 11) => x+y =11…..eqn1
From this we can say x=11-y….eqn2
(Bottle is 10 times cap)=>X=10y…..eqn3
Giving value of x in eqn 3. 11-y=10y
11y=11
y=1 and X=10

Why does your brain release chemicals like dopamine for itself? Can’t it just tell itself to be happy or pleasured? I just don’t get why it needs to do that if we’re basically our brains. | Both. Like the age old question, ‘what came first, the chicken or the egg?’ There is your answer.

Why are Trinity/Collegiate/Brearley in NYC being as highly regarded as Exeter/Andover, given that there are relatively limited sports/arts facilities at those schools? | Because for most people (especially in New York) who are looking at elite schools, their academic quality is infinitely more important than that of their sports facilities.
As an example, Horace Mann is probably considered the top independent high school in NYC, but that has virtually nothing to do with its incredible physical facilities, and everything to do with the quality of its education.
So in the case of Brearley, for example, the fact that it is a relatively tiny school with zero in the way of facilities, doesn’t mean much to anyone who is looking for possibly the single best academic girls’ education in the country.
But although the above answer is technically accurate, underlying the question is something quite different; something that has really interesting overtones and undercurrents of culture, religion, class, parenting style and philosophy.
The elite NYC high schools are all day schools; Exeter and Andover are both boarding schools. For a certain class of traditional, old-money, WASP families, it was (and to an extent still is) the absolute norm to send your teenage children off to boarding school. There they could develop their mind, body, and social skills in a safe environment of similar children. To those parents, having your child not go to a name-brand boarding school would immediately cause raised eyebrows among your peers. They might look at families whose children stayed at home and went to day schools [often with a large Jewish population] in the way that a Princetonian might look at someone attending City College.
On the flip side, for a particular class of upper-middle income, intellectual/professional, second or third generation American, often Jewish, close-knit family, the idea of sending your children away at age 14 is about as comprehensible to them as giving them up for adoption to China.
The perspectives really are that starkly different. Even today, when both sets of schools are much more heterogeneous in their student body demographics, each of the two family types regards the other with a certain combination of pity, disdain and superiority. It’s pretty funny to watch (if you’re attuned to this sort of thing).
Exeter

Which My Hero Academia character had the most powerful mother? | Only a handful of parents have been introduced at all, and none of them are particularly powerful. Inko has mild telekinesis. Mitsuki’s quirk keeps her looking young, but at least she can and would probably hit pretty hard. Rei has an ice quirk that one could assume is probably pretty strong, otherwise Enji wouldn’t have picked her, but she’s so emotionally damaged, that she’s lived in a hospital for ~a decade where she likely is restricted from using her quirk at all. We’ve seen Ochako’s parents, but not with any real detail. Yuga's mother hasn’t demonstrated a quirk and was living in fear and spying for AFO, so probably not a big power house there.
Honestly, the only powerful mother I can think of in the series is kinda dead. Nana (the holder of OFA prior to Toshinori) was pretty powerful. However, her son was barely a character, and as I mentioned, she’s kinda dead. The only reason she has any screen time outside of flashbacks is because the Vestiges live inside OFA and occasionally talk with Izuku.
If I had to guess, given just how few married pro heroes we’ve seen (not to mention, parent heroes,) is that part of the sexism women face in that world prevents most serious women pro heroes from even entertaining the possibility of having kids or being in an open, serious relationship. Women heroes are already held to a different standard, being expected to do more superficial nonsense, like the commercials Momo got stuck doing during her internship. Considering how risky it is, it makes sense that pro heroes would be less likely to have kids. We didn’t meet his parents, but Kota’s parents were pro partners and ended up dying together, orphaning him at a young age. But that would be even more true for women who would also have to give up months of their career (and therefore hurt their own standings on the charts) actually having the child.
That’s not to say there aren’t powerful people who aren’t heroes (or villains) but they don’t really get much focus in the show.

If a job is still being advertised 4 months after you were rejected, and you think you are qualified for it, would you reapply? | Yes, if I was still wanting that job. If it was just a job to have a paycheck while I figured out what I wanted to do, I’d reconsider if I really want that job. But if it’s a job in my career path and I think I’m qualified for it, yes I’d apply again.
However, if I failed to even get an interview last time, that would tell me my resume is not up to par. Many larger companies actually use computers to scan through resumes and look for key words. They want to see specific words on your resume, and if you have too many red flag words, your resume won’t even end up in front of a real person. So if I didn’t even get a call, I know my resume needs redone so it will end up at an actual person.
If I got an interview and didn’t get the job, I would reevaluate how my interview went last time and what I could do to improve it. It could even be that I passed the interview last time, but someone else had a slightly stronger interview and got the one job opening, and they left or need a helper and now another job has opened up. Maybe I just need to reapply to show them I’m still interested, and the interview ends up just being a conversation because they already know I fit the job. It could be that I messed up on an answer or was just super nervous and flustered and stumbled through the interview (usually my problem). It could be that they run the interview in STAR method and I didn’t know what that was the first time but totally aced it the second time (sort of happened. I found out an interview was STAR and had no idea what that meant, so of course I failed. 8 months later at a different job I was up for promotion through STAR interview and I passed it because I understood the format). It could be I didn’t have the experience they were looking for 4 months ago but now I do. There’s a lot of things that could be different between my interview 4 months ago and now, even for the same job with the same interviewer.
If this job is on your career path, why not try? Worst that can happen is they say it’s too soon, try again in 6–12 months.

Why does Papa John's take so long to deliver? | I can only speculate but I would guess that poor management decisions are responsible. Management have probably decided to invest in insufficient cooking facilities and have told the people taking orders and programmed online ordering to give overoptimistic delivery times. The thing is that if you are told it will take thirty minutes and it takes forty-five, you won't be happy. If you're told forty-five minutes in the first place, you're very happy because it took as long as they quoted. In this, Domino's gets it right.

In the UK, can a resident get him/herself checked (e.g. blood tests, scans) for cancer free of charge on NHS? Can a GP refuse to arrange these checks because the client has no symptoms? | I can answer the first question from personal experience.
Just before Easter, I had problems breathing. So I completed a short questionnaire on the NHS 111 website. 2 1/2 hours later, having spoken to two doctors, I’d been collected by an ambulance and was in a bed in A&E. I had blood tests, X-rays, CT scans, two courses of antibiotics and god knows what else over the next week when I was taken home in another ambulance. The diagnosis was that I had embolisms in both lungs which were treated with no problems. However, I was told the scans had given them cause for concern and I was to be investigated urgently for two different cancers.
A colonoscopy soon gave the all-clear on the first one, but further investigations at another hospital led to more antibiotics, an MRI scan, then more blood and urine tests and a CT scan before a biopsy revealed I had prostate cancer. I am now nearing the end of a six-month course of hormone suppression, to shrink the prostate and am hoping Covid does not interfere with the 39 radiotherapy sessions due to start in February.
The silver lining is that the cancer was found long before I would have seen a doctor as I was unaware of any symptoms, other than what I thought normal for my age.
Apart from transport costs, except the ambulances which were free, this has cost me absolutely nothing. The NHS has not charged me anything. Nor will they for the rest of my treatment.

Do you think John Lennon would have been a Nirvana fan? | No not at all.
He would have seen them as a ‘manufactured band’ and he would have been right, because he saw the music industry from the inside view and knew the b.s. record labels say and the hype they create.
Nirvana was a top down ‘event’. It was not a grassroots / natural ‘event’.
Nirvana was ‘hyped’ by their label.
John Lennon would not have liked them for that reason. He would have perceived them as ‘insincere’, and ‘manufactured’, and not ‘real enough’ compared to the way music was in the 60’s.

Why don’t files normally come with a tool handle but most other woodworking tools do? | The cut of the file refers to how fine its teeth are. They are defined as (from roughest to smoothest): rough, middle, bastard, second cut, smooth, and dead smooth. A single-cut file has one set of parallel teeth while a cross-cut or double-cut file has a second set of cuts forming diamond shaped cutting surfaces. You have two basic methods: straight filing and draw filing. Here's the difference between the two: Straight Filing: The first and most basic filing technique is called straight-filing, and involves pushing the file lengthwise across the work, making contact only on the forward stroke.

Is it true that many East Asians are insular to other cultures? | If you mean “far East Asia” like Korea and Japan, then that’s kinda right. But the reasons of them are quite different.
(1) China: China has a lot of different cultures in it, but sometimes they show quite insular aspects against foreign cultures. But it’s usually because of their nationalistic policy, not their natural manners. It’s more of the matter of the 1st nations vs. others including China. But other than such political reasons, China is not that exclusive against other cultures. They have been, rather, quite inclusive and generous. Past dynasties of China accepted many Western and Middle-East knowledges.
→ POLITICAL EXCLUSIVENESS ESPECIALLY AGAINST THE WEST
(2) North Korea: The most exclusive one in East Asia, maybe…
(3) South Korea: South Koreans’ tendency or characteristics are mostly made since the 20th century. Since they suffered such a turbulent modern history, they got very protective that they sometimes show quite xenophobic and exclusive or conservative attitude against exotic cultures except for well-known Western cultures. Sometimes, their tendency makes them not accept criticism from foreigners.
I think the exclusiveness of both Koreas is shared with a common root: protecting their countries against outside forces. It’s because Korea historically suffered from invasions (e.g. vs. Jurchens, Mongols, Japanese, Manchurians (later Jurchens), and even Western forces just from 1000s to 1900s) more than they did conquoring or attacking others (e.g. vs. Jurchens, Mongolian remainders). This history of defence of Korea made both North and South Korea all xenophobic and conservative. It’s not merely “we hate other cultures” but more like “we don’t trust others. Show us that you’re trustful if you want to be friends with us”.
→ EXCLUSIVENESS MADE THROUGHOUT THEIR HISTORY
(4) Japan: The exclusiveness of Japan is because of their geographic circumstance. As they’ve lived in islands, they were quite isolated and developed highly unique culture compared to other East Asian countries. This is why setting the stereotype of East Asians as Japanese is improper, which is but done in especially the U.S. Anyway, as they’ve been very isolated, they also sometimes insular to other cultures. But it’s quite subtly done that many people wouldn’t think so, because they usually don’t say what they think directly. In Japan, this exclusiveness is done in the form of “Japanizing” other cultures.
However, once they judge that the exotic culture can become a part of their culture (iitokotori, いいとことり: taking good things), then they take a quite inclusive and generous attitude towards the culture.
→ EXCLUSIVENESS THAT GEOGRAPHICALLY OCCURED

Whats the #1 thing you always pray for? | One of the shrewdest and smartest maneuvers I have ever seen in business is when Amazon acquired Whole Foods in 2017. This move gave Amazon a foothold in the grocery industry and allowed them to capitalize on the existing customer base of Whole Foods. It also allowed Amazon to leverage Whole Foods’ existing supply chain and distribution network to expand its own product offerings. This move has since paid off for Amazon, as they have seen significant growth in their grocery business since the acquisition.

What is the most dangerous place on Earth? | It's been long since I wrote on Quora. I don't know what to write here but today I do want to write something.
The most dangerous thing on the earth is doing nothing and having zero will power to manifest your own dreams to reality.
You don't realise but somehow you start enjoying doing nothing and it becomes your habit. You like being a couch potato. You don't want to get out of your comfort zone that's when your life start getting miserable. People around you start mocking you,you feel humiliated but you can't change anything. It was you who created this slacker,who does nothing.
After facing humiliation & insult, you try to start doing something to achieve your long lost dream but you final miserably. You try again & you fail again. How would you know, how many times you've to fail to actually succeed. You don't know.. it becomes tough to even try now. You feel like quiting but that's not the option you want to go for. What should you do then ? You've no answer, may be one more try.
It all started because you developed the habit of doing nothing. It's dangerous ,if you create a wrong habit for you. It can cost your life. Here motivation also doesn't work because-
“Motivation is what get's you started. Habit is what keeps you going. -Jim Ryun"
