Ask Science@lemmy.world•Why are the Reagan Reserves stored in salt mines? Is there a scientific reason for this? Instead of using well built warehouses?English
183·21 hours agoI gave up on google a long time ago. I use this to get real questions answered like why is a salt mine better than a warehouse? What in salt makes a mine more suitable? And other questions. I have been told to shorten stuff so I have been. Plus this is an engagement discourse site.

Explain Like I'm Five@lemmy.world•Why do people say I have a certain style when asking questions? Is that a bad thing and if so can someone explain how style can be applied to typing? Or how do I fix it. To better the communityEnglish

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I read somewhere a while back that most or at least half of California wildfires are cause by faulty electrical company equipment. Is this true? And how come no one has ever reported it?
2·23 hours agoYea I guess I should have tried to slip frequency in there somehow.

13·2 days agoI just don’t want to show an agenda. I am a very lazy person. And just ask questions to start discussions but a good one is har…Hate to ask can you go through my post and pick out of a good example how I skim? I don’t mean that in any way to be argumentative.

22·2 days agoThanks for the reply…no sarcasm. Can you go thru like my post history and tear it a part. Not really understanding a flawed premise. I am not getting defensive just generally curious. My college English teachers always said I have my own “signature” never knew what that meant.

21·2 days agoI take welbutrin in the morning so my mind after taking it is like 90 miles an hour. Currently I am thinking about Russia, Ukraine, the Chinese and Asian race to who gets the better AI. But I also talk very fast. I guess it probably stems from being told all through school to show your work or this wasn’t a one sentence answer. Then I college I was doing term papers for everyone and it stuck. But no i don’t have ADHD or Autism (don’t know if that was a dig or insult) though. I suffer from SSAD, Schizo Affective Disorder…oh depression and an appetite for pain. Jesus I think I just self diagnosed myself. Oh yeah I can type 150 words a minute so my hands almost keep up with my mind. Also I am mostly on this cause sister has pre onset Alzheimer’s and trying to deal with that. She is the one who started this account. Ok now rambling I will STFU. Real quick would love to have ADHD just to try Ritalin.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What is the deal with Caitlan Clarke and pretty much the whole WNBA is against her? She drains 3 pointers like I never seen and they treat her like ruffing up a man. Shouldn't they congratulate her?
162·2 days agoThat is exactly what I don’t get. She played Basketball her whole life. I think that shows she pays her dues. But they treat her like shit and I haven’t seen her fight back. I think she’s like on her third technical or something and I think the refs are in on it. I would love to see the ratings when she rides the wood vs when she’s on the court.

Ask Science@lemmy.world•Why is DNA in a helix? And since we've known about it for a while how come we can't gene edit? If a kid is 90 percent going to be not "normal" then edit the gene and give him or her the best shot?English
1·2 days agoI guess I should have said why do they not look like rungs on a regular ladder but a ladder that is twisted? And how does one side know which spot to connect to on the other side?

Ask Science@lemmy.world•Maybe the wrong place but here it goes why does the US government not donate more money to the maths and sciences? When our whole country/world would be shit without scientists?English
4·2 days agoWhat is always burnt into my mind is I think it was NDT who showed a dollar bill and used a red pen/marker and the amount that goes to nasa and scientist. But as a society we cannot invest in scientific groups to better society. We just throw money at these corps and expect results. But that money goes from top down. Trust me I know it’s why I lied on my taxes for like 10 years and gave the money to my uncle who is a safety coordinator. The thing is I don’t get is how he went from a pepsi saleman/deliver for 15 years to nasa. And how they gave him a safety coordinator job.

1·2 days agoSee that’s what I don’t get. Not calling you a liar or anything cause I hear the argument a lot. But if they are aligned with the government wouldn’t it behoove the government to dump a shitton of money into these companies scientists so that way they can come up with more drugs, generic or name brand, and the companies would have about 100 year life span.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If a space Alien landed in the states. And hooked up with one of his or her fellow travelers and had a kid in the US would that kid be a US citizen? Or do we have something in place for it?
