      Concentrate on your art, craft and imagination, leave the brilliant scientific minds alone.

    but since they are far away, we are looking at the past…not how things are presently.

      When I was younger and my science teacher pointed this out, he also made the point of telling us that means it’s not just the past, but things that may not even be there anymore.

    They turned on the Hubbell and they saw a big sign in the sky saying “Take a journey inside supermassive hyperactive black holes”. Did Elon put that sign out there?

    I wonder if those black holes were like Earth and they were messing around with a hydrogen Collider. And something must have went wrong

Where you live shapes your relationships, your emotions and even how long you live, says community designer Zach DeBoer. After studying what a century of building cities around cars has done to downtowns in the US, he turned to lessons from some of the most walkable, carefully designed streets in the country: the ones inside Disney theme parks. With ideas ranging from narrower roads to buildings that pull you around the next corner, he offers a practical guide to turning ordinary downtowns into magical places people want to explore.
