  • Antimatter is not just matter with an opposite charge. It's matter with every type of charges (electromagnetic, strong and weak nuclear charges) inverted, as well as the "parity", that is the relative direction of its spin compared to its propagation direction, are all inverted.

    If you look for "CPT symmetry", you'll find better explanations than this.

    It basically boils down to this: invert the flow of time, and every particle will look like antimatter, while antimatter will look like normal matter.

    It would have been very likely that antimatter moved backwards in gravity of it was normal matter moving backwards in time!

  • It has a positive mass, and in every other way it acts just like normal matter going backwards in time (cpt inversion).

    If, despite its positive mass, it was pushed back by gravity, then it would have given even more weight to the theory that antimatter is just matter moving backwards.

    Since gravity is such a wonky interaction, I'm not even sure this result disproves the time-reversal theory entirely!

  • Also this part:

    restrictions on who can be on the board including they cannot be a sitting senator, MP or member of a provincial or territorial legislature or employed in the public service or federal public administration.

    Anyone not “recognized in their field” for open-economy macroeconomics, the financial system, the labour market, supply chains and risk management would not be eligible, the bill says.

    So basically just successful C-level executives, or does it includes university professors?

  • Don't attribute to greed that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

    However it can always be a bit of both.

  • "This malware requires the latest version of Wine to work correctly."

  • I asked chat GPT and it couldn't understand which company you were talking about. I think you will be safe for now! 😏

  • "sacred duty" ha!

    Best excuse to commit atrocities throughout history!

  • Wow this bench comes with an integrated safety loop to prevent people from falling when they sleep on this bench. Nice!

  • In Futurama it's an ethical problem since robots have a conciousness.

    If real life Amazon used robots instead of humans, it would solve so many (yet not every) ethical problems with my shopping habits!

  • If it's acceptable...

  • I'd say: look at populist leaders... It's easy to exploit people without them realizing it.

  • No wonder he died, he couldn't Hurry with his regular cane!

  • Oh no! It will no longer be possible for the Bathurst-Dundas intersection to be nicknamed "Ba-das".

    Ok, I may have been the only one to name it that way... And I've only been there twice... I guess it doesn't really matter then.

  • I wish to downvote because this makes me sad... But i know that's not how it works... take this upvote for nice art!

  • There's also xlwings. The free tier does just that: run python code in Excel, and no cloud is required!

  • the two lead plaintiffs say they gave birth five times in hospital and that they were allegedly given tubal ligations without their full consent after their fifth births.

    If something went wrong, doctors could have been it was the only way to save the mother or the baby's life... But then:

    A university study released late last year found there have been at least 22 cases of forced sterilization of First Nations and Inuit women in Quebec since 1980.

    22 is not a lot, but it's still more than zero! I look forward to learn the verdict.

  • Due to the climate, houses need more isolation and heating that the typical US house. This leads to stricter regulations on house construction, which causes construction prices to rise even more...

    Removing our reducing these regulations would simply allow promoters to botch the job without reducing price... So we're stuck with these prices but have houses that keep us warm in the winter.

  • Ivy's very well implanted in my backyard from previous owners. It adds lots of green to an otherwise small fenced backyard.

    I brought the hops when I moved in, and so far it hasn't been able to take over... I'm keeping it contained as much as I can, thus the reason why it's in a pot!

    We'll see how it goes next year.

  • My hops don't like being transplanted from the ground into a (very large) pot. Next year we'll try to burry the pot, see how it goes.

  • Ground cherries are the best! Homegrown ones are so much better than grocery ones (although this is true for many fruits and vegetables)!
