      In the Lagrange point?

      Jokodo replied to the thread A dumb question.
      Incidentally, we indeed live in a time of unusually high tidal breaking, with plenty of landmasses near the equator where they get in...

      Jokodo reacted to bilby's post in the thread A dumb question with Like Like.
      I knew it was all a big conspiracy! It's the Isthmus of Panama that's behind all of this. The whole thing is so hush-hush, you can't...

      Jokodo replied to the thread A dumb question.
      I didn't check the math, but an interesting side note: we can calculate the distance at earth and moon will be when they achieve mutual...

      Jokodo reacted to Loren Pechtel's post in the thread A dumb question with Like Like.
      The moon most certainly is rotating. It is tidally locked but that doesn't mean no rotation, that means 1 day = 1 year (but remember...

      Jokodo reacted to Bomb#20's post in the thread A dumb question with Like Like.
      Nothing ever reaches 0K; it just gets closer and closer. All the effects we're talking about here are stronger for fast-spinning...

      Jokodo replied to the thread A dumb question.
      Unless I'm mistaken, tidal forces are proportional to the square of gravity, or to the fourth power of distance. If they were...

      No need for fancy stuff like planes. Watch scattered high-altitude clouds at sunset. U you'll see them still in sunlight when the the...

      If you're thinking of Eratosthenes, his experiment doesn't show the earth is round. It showed the size of the earth *assuming* it is...

      Jokodo replied to the thread RNA self replicates.
      That's kind of confusing wording in the summary, but here is the paragraph it seems to refer to: "Then a 100-fold dilution was carried...

      Jokodo reacted to bilby's post in the thread RNA self replicates with Like Like.
      The problem with RNA is that it looks like a delicious snack to modern bacteria, so it doesn't really exist outside aseptic laboratory...

      Days? Those arbitrary stretches of time, usually 86 400 seconds but sometimes 90000 or 82800 when moving to and from DST or 864001 when...

      Which is (I assume, I know zero about baseball) impressive; But the central question of the thread is "Why doesn't it make him the...

      Jokodo reacted to Emily Lake's post in the thread Gender Roles with Like Like.
      The question I end up with is whether this behavior is actually evolutionarily hardwired, or whether it's learned. It's easy to assume...

      Jokodo reacted to Emily Lake's post in the thread Gender Roles with Like Like.
      IIRC, there is a fairly well established tendency for girls to gravitate toward play that involves nurturing, and for boys to gravitate...
