The wood is varnished; it's pores are rather well sealed off from absorbing the moisture from the sandwich.
The serviette is bleached pulp from a tree; it's purpose here is not so much structural, but doubly functional; protecting both the finely varnished table and the subject's hands from directly contacting any oils and grimes excreted from the the sauce and the cooked ingredients (includes the bread as well as the tomatoes and miscellaneous meat).
The bread is toasted, it has become stronger yet brittler. In it's strength, it supports likely several hundred grams of organic matter, without being squished or squashed.
The sauce is a classic emulsion of some kind, probably egg based, perhaps with some diary. Emulsions are not yet understood by mainstream science, perhaps a little more by /sci/ (I shall allow someone else to chime in here, be sure to use ** asterisk so we all know where **).
Next appears to be a fine vegetable - the so-called butter lettuce. Delicious and perfect for a multilayered organic edible structure as shown here. Structurally it acts the same as the serviette, interestingly enough, but functionally it provides certain delicious vegetables sugars, and probably lactones of some kind. Yum.
Next, the tomato. Again, not much is known about this mysterious vegetable which science can explain, perhaps /sci/ can shed some light (use ## this time plz). A strange fact is that is seems to soften up when cooked - totally opposite to what happens with the bread and meat... It is quite tasty, and still just structurally sound enough to be stable, but be careful when biting into it, and they can also be slippery (really strange and unexplained vegetable, at least we think, no good theories yet)...
More of the same butter lettuce, of very little structural importance, though it does have a suitable coefficient of friction unlike the non-Newtonian tomato.
Meat. Unfortunately I cannot provide much as I don't know what meat it is.

Are there any architects or engineers on this board? Would it be possible to build this stadium IRL, or is it impossible for the roof to be structurally sound?

The real problem is the covering material that must be very lightweight, strong and cheap to manufacture at industrial scale.

>>16386100
Industrial designer who works with architects here.
A dome like that is structurally possible but I'd make it using inflatable or semi-rigid structures, probably in a tensegrity. Also I'd build some kind of light channels into the structure instead of putting the lights in the dome.

Back in May it was confirmed that the shield has an issue that would have killed astronauts in reentry

Now it appears that the shielding cannot be fixed

Orion cannot take a human crew. It would get cooked in reentry
No humans will fly to the Moon in Orion
Years and billions of dollars wasted in both Orion and SLS

What is the issue with a Dragon to LEO that docks with a Starship? It may need one more refuelling than the current mission architecture, but that doesn't seem to be a big issue. Maybe it`s an issue for the Artemis missions after Artemis 3 because there they are supposed to assemble and use the Lunar Gateway

The answer is right here. Single throw to Lunar orbit for the crew, launch a lander separately.

It appears that my 7-year-old son likely has ADHD, as suggested by a recent conversation with one of his teachers. He's struggled with focus and hyperactivity for years, but we’ve often attributed it to "just being a boy." However, his behavior has recently become almost intolerable, and his school performance is beginning to suffer, which prompted us to consult a doctor. We're now faced with the challenge of managing his behavior, including the possibility of using amphetamines to help control his impulses and improve his focus.

Given the number of smart and high-achieving individuals here with ADD or ADHD, and the many threads we’ve had on this topic, an update could be useful.

How were you diagnosed with ADD/ADHD?
Did/do you take medication for it?
Does the medication help? What specific effects does it have—on behavior, focus, or cognition?
How long have you been taking the medication?
For everyone: What are your thoughts on using medication to manage ADD/ADHD? Do you believe medication is essential in treating ADD/ADHD, or can non-medication strategies alone be sufficient?

Thank you.

Just wanted to bitch about the GHETTO-ASS language of German for a quick minute.
I can never automatically remember what "rows" and "columns" are in German. I always remember, of course, but it feels manual and semi-effortful, like you sometimes have to manually recall what West/East or Right/Left are.
You see, the German word for "column" doesn't, like the English term "column" recall actual vertical structures. It's "Spalte", which you can see is related to "split". In Germany, do splits always run vertically? No, they fucking do not. It's completely arbitrary math lingo.
"Row" is "Zeile", which is a bit better, though as it's a less often used term in German than row is in English, it still does not feel natural. The direct German equivalent "Reihe" interestingly is used for series. I find both the German and English term here retarded. If I were some 1700s mathematician, I would have introduced the term "aggregate" or "accumulation" or something like that for series.
>>
>>16385798
I would point out that the first time a German kid hears the word "Zeile", it is a line (of letters) in a book or a newspaper. So the horizontal part is deeply ingrained. I am sorry that you need to learn this word later and only in the context of math.

Let me guess. You're always the first person to point out typos of your/you're, or there/their/they're or to let people know it's "fewer" not "less". Are you a literal 14 year old or just a mental 14 year old?

How can I reduce accumulation of microplastics in my brain

There is a surgery where they use a long needle to scrape the microplastics off of your brain. It is a rather simple and fast procedure. Something like 3 motions and microplastics are no longer something that you are worried about.

>>16386253

How old ware you, when you discovered that space we experience is just luminoferrous aether?

We need whole quantum mechanics, just to explain, that light is not wave in a medium, space is not medium...

Can't you just accept that old man was true and mainstream media spreads true?

Light is a wave, propagating trough medium, now we call it space. Medium can bend itself to form minkowski space, but space itself cannot?

Virginijus Šikšnys is a Lithuanian biochemist and a professor at Vilnius University. He is a chief scientist at the Vilnius University Institute of Biotechnology.
He developed gene editing method a month before Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier on the bottom, but unlike them Virginijus Šikšnys didn't get nobel Prize for his work.
Because these women had more tight connections with academic sphere and their work was not even reviewed but Šikšnys's work was rejected for no reason

>Since 2007 Šikšnys focused on mechanistic studies of CRISPR-Cas, the newly discovered bacterial antiviral systems, and was among the first to demonstrate programmable DNA cleavage by the Cas9 protein.
>According to Šikšnys, his article was not even considered as serious by the editor board of the academic journal and was not sent to the reviewers, therefore the time needed to be recognized as first was lost.
>Martin Schlak reported that Šikšnys submitted his article describing DNA cleavage by Cas9 to Cell Reports on 18 April 2012. After its rejection without peer review, he sent it to PNAS one month later, and it took several months for review and publication. In the meantime, Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier had published their findings in Science where their findings were reviewed and accepted within two weeks.
Also after some time there was a report that shared some money from nobel prize, It looks like he was paid to keep quiet

Yes, that is what academic snobbism is - you can do top-tier work, be first to make the actual discovery and still be overlooked while publishing just because you are from a 3rd tier institution while someone from a high-tier institution can get into a prestigious journal with almost immediately.
Yes, he was snubbed for the Nobel.
No, it is not fair.
Yes, we just have to accept it, as there is no fighting the system and all of its biases that is orders of magnitude more powerful than any individual or even an institution. For everyone who was awarder there are 10 people whose work was just as groundbreaking but they received no recognition due to snobbism and politics.
Yes, I am Lithuanian.
