Yay! Here's your cookie for being special. Now go away.
Come on, that's ridiculous. Only Fox would run with a derivative premise like that, and even then they'd end up cancelling it.

Where are your results published? What are your qualifications? Are you simply regurgitating half-understood bits you heard while watching Animal Planet?

Consider that many of those are not yet sexually active and/or reproductive, elderly, menopausal, infertile, in addition to the great many who simply don't want to have a baby in any given year.
How Ugg not know if Ugg's ears just slow?
Thanks! It's good to see that someone else can spot fakes and thieves. As an artist and photographer I fully support homages, but this is cheap Photoshop tracery.
Bravo, for the Niven reference!
Are your complex systems suffering from premature collapse? Perhaps you're having problems getting your complex system started due to "insufficient data." Now there's Physagra! Longer lasting complex systems for a hypothesis than can take a peer-review pounding even with only partial data! Your "variable" may not be measurable, but the results sure will!

If your complex system lasts more than four hours, publish your results immediately.

Unfashionable? Pfft... One of the hoopiest froods that really knows where his towel is has crashed parties here.
As well as Napoleon Dynamite's love interest.
CSI... *puts on sunglasses* is for the birds.

YEEAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I think this article completely misconstrues and undermines the point and meaning of rule #3 and its importance. He didn't say "don't edit," he said don't rewrite. There is a huge and fundamental difference between the two. I've seen numerous amateur writers get so frustrated by early work that they start over repeatedly. They rework a story to death until they lose the story's energy or lose interest and give up.

Editing, especially for clarity and pacing, is essential. Rewriting because you've lost faith in your work is a death trap. Finish your story. When it's finished, and you've finished editing, don't rewrite it! You'll learn as you go, but only if you actually go. Sitting and rewriting the same story because you are unsure about it isn't helpful and is actually detrimental.

It's a solid rule, and I agree with it.

The worst and most needless aspect of James Tiberius Kirk's death isn't simply that it was less-than-heroic. The wors tpart is that it is directly Picard's fault. Picard was in the Nexus and was explicitly told, many times, that he could exit anywhere, and any time! So he goes to a couple minutes before??? He could have gone to several days, or weeks, prior and avoid the entire goddamned mess! That's shoddy writing that makes the characters seem trivial and ignorant. A plothole you could fly a starship through.
She starts dying, nobody knows why, so they induce childbirth.
They aren't submerged, they are just very narrow islands with shallow reefs between them.
With many space photos, such as Hubble photos of nebulae and other interstellar objects, if you were to view them as your "Mark One" eyeballs would see them, you'd see virtually nothing at all. The reason many are "false colored" is because the wavelengths that the telescopes operate in are far beyond, or below, what human eyesight could ever see. They slide the spectrum scale down to our own so that we can see what the telescope perceives. They don't have someone digitally coloring them in Photoshop, they are simply scaling down proportionally.
Maybe more people need to be less judgmental about what some artists enjoy drawing. Although it's not my main focus, I sometimes draw topless/pin-up babes because boobs are great.
The most dangerousest.
