Covercrop is still monoculture, monoculture isn't inherently bad. Ultimately it comes down to cost. Labor is limited and a lot of the stuff you're talking about are fine for small volume vegetables but you're not gonna get feed the world wheat yields from that.

They looked at me like an idiot when I asked if they needed to scan my id, everyone just walked through with only the facial scan. This will probably vary by airport a lot.

Not anymore it seems.

It's a replacement for either your ticket or passport being scanned.

A lot of them for the small articles and stubs are written very technically and don't provide an explanation for complex subjects if you aren't already familiar with it. Then you have to read 4 subjects down just to figure out the jargon for what they're saying

They're heavy strategic bombers, like a full size commercial jet, they don't have a lot of them and they could use more. So yes, these were definitively used to bomb Ukraine.

Wouldn't you feel like a fool if'n this guy figured out the secret and was out there taking 50 cal rounds to the face.

It's usually per mile if its long haul, which is the root of all the problems because that incentivizes the driver to go faster and spend less time on other things. And it fucks the driver over because they don't get paid if they're not moving, even if they're waiting on someone else.

The hungry tiger jataka is my favorite

"One day, the Bodhisattva and one of his disciples decided to take a stroll in the forest nearby. This had become a regular practice. They often went for strolls.

While they were walking, the Bodhisattva notices something extremely terrifying. He saw a tigress, which looked weak and hungry. The tigress was about to devour her own cubs. Now, that moved the Bodhisattva’s heart. He did not want the poor animal to suffer the guilt of eating her own cubs. So, he came up with an idea.

He sent his disciple back to do something. The Bodhisattva had decided that he would offer himself as food to the starving tigress. He simply could not let her eat her cubs. And he knew if his disciple had seen this, he would definitely stop the Bodhisattva from offering himself. You may also like to read, The Tiger And The Golden Bangle.

After the disciple is gone, the Bodhisattva approached the tigress. With the utmost compassion in his heart and no malice, he let the tigress devour him. The tigress ate him and fed the cubs as well. After a while, the disciple returned. When he saw the Bodhisattva’s blood stained clothes, he realized what had happened.

He knew the Bodhisattva well. So, he knew the hermit had offered himself to save the tigress. He went back and told his fellow disciples of the Bodhisattva’s sacrifice out of love and compassion. "

Then everyone dumps on him, and he says the roll back was fake news and it's still happening, but nobody even in the administration knows what's going on.

That's not a biochemist, memorizing the amino acids is literally biochem 1 on college. Most people with a biology undergrad take that.

Being a biochemist is more about understanding the whole system of how proteins interact, and not really about memorization of any specific protein.
