The same can be said about negative numbers or real numbers.

Also for most of human evolution, life expectancy was much less than 50 years, so there was no evolutionary pressure to be fertile for longer.

The new card is programmed by the front desk to tell the lock that the previous card should be disabled. The old card isn’t invalidated until the new one is used.

You can also gain or loss equity if the value of the asset goes up or down. I’d think of it as what you would get to keep after selling it at the current market value and paying off any debt.

They don’t build the second floor perpendicular to the first floor walls, they independently make sure each floor is level and each wall is plumb.

The universe isn’t expanding into anything since it is everything. It’s the space in the universe that’s getting bigger. That doesn’t make intuitive sense because it not something that we experience at the size of things we interact with.

They have ways of communicating with us through the fossils and artifacts they left behind.

Because we have no means of ever communicating with one’s that haven’t, so they might as well not exist to us.

Why in 2012 dollars? Doing so causes the lines to intersect there, but I think many people will assume the intersection is means something more than that. Why not use 1950 dollars?

That would be my assumption.

A lot of the reason is because you expect it to. I’ve seen cases were people have done blind taste tests of both un-aged alcohol, like vodka, and aged alcohol, like wine, and people generally can’t tell the difference unless they are told one is more expensive. If they are told one is more expensive they tend to like that one whether it actually was more expensive or not.

If one follows your steps, the most common outcome is one letter and there has no between-letter patterns which clearly doesn’t match the between-letter patterns of the source data.

Yeah, I think the display of the data is interesting, I just think what you wrote about it is misleading.

My point is your interpretation is flawed, because the most likely outcome of it is very far from the actual most likely name.

Following those rules the most likely outcome is “A”

Ok, I mean that’s clearly a joke.

Where are you seeing these depictions? I’ve never seen such a suggestion.

Some software doesn’t check if it’s purchase, so in that case one just needs the files or installer. If the software does check, one would find a vulnerability in the code that is checking if the game or software was purchased and work around the check.

If the debt was past due maybe, but that would be because the country couldn’t pay its debts not that it had them.

A country being in debt is not a problem in and off itself, there are plenty of posts on this sub that go into that, so I won’t here, but what is a problem for an economy is if faith is lost in the currency and printing that much money would certainly do that. Money doesn’t have any value in and off itself, it only has value because we believe it does and that its a stable way to trade value. If the county is willing to create huge amounts at will to pay debt that erodes that faith in stability.

It’s a very recent development. The vote or whatever was a couple weeks ago.

There can be as much as a second difference between GMT and UTC times, which is why we’ve been adding leap seconds ever few years to UTC. Starting in 2035, it’s been determined that we will stop adding leap seconds to UTC, so at that point UTC and GMT times will start to drift more, but still likely only by a few seconds. I don’t believe it’s been determined what we’ll do when the gap becomes greater.

You bring propellant with you and eject it in the opposite direction you want to go. Because momentum is conserved that causes you to move. You don’t need to push off anything.

Sounds good. If there was a county with a value of 80, wouldn’t it be grey as it is.

But grey is also the middle of your scale. Why is the scale blue to grey to red instead of just one color that gets darker?
