Right, but I guess I meant to say, why are you and I and others continuing to discuss this if it is based on a logical fallacy? I guess "because...

Humans are primates, though we're the sort of relations who get banned from family reunions.

Selective perception is not solely the province of D.O.M.s! It's human nature.

Scientists argue about it all the time!

I'm saying the paradox itself is a based on logical fallacy; I'm not ascribing personal motives to anyone.

The lake itself is approximately 20-30 kilometers in diameter. The water in it does not melt due to the possibly high salt content. That is why...

This scientific study helps to better understand the processes taking place in the solar system, and once again reminds us that the vast and...

I just delay the Windows 10 updates as long as I can, and shut down every night. However, at intervals Windows will warn you that you have to...

Bit of a musical start.

That Winton infographic is obviously well respected. It was quoted, and linked, in the "Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation"...

Crew Dragon's service module (propellant tanks, thrusters, consumables) are integrated into the vehicle, all the better to reuse them. The only parts...

Is it possible for the reaction CO2 + SO2 = SO3 + CO to occur in the Venus atmosphere, exposed to UV and high temperature?

It will take another year or two to "confirm" it to 5 sigma... but it seems very likely.

It still says the same thing. Fortunately, I can let it run overnight. If this happened during the day, I’d be in trouble for preventing Mrs...

That sounds, uh, totally radical! (Maybe more 90s?)

Over the last week or so. Looks like header tank tests today. Falcon Heavy lunar launch Astrobotic's Griffin lunar lander & NASA VIPER rover,...

That's an interesting point, about the logical fallacies that prompt us (meaning us, collectively, as in all people interested in this topic, not...

some kind of update most likely one of the major updates not the typical security updates, it might take up to a couple of hours.

My home computer was running exceptionally slowly, so instructed it to restart. It now says “Getting Windows ready. Don’t turn off your computer”...

Very true, but I thought it close enough for amusement.

I guess it would be even funnier if it were a conference of primatologists. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Brighter than Aldebaran is what I meant. The only other theory I'm aware of is convection cells. But it didn't get much traction.

Here's an article marking the 60th anniversary of Gagarin's flight and pointing out the poor state of the current program, as well as pointing out an...
