So, wait. Maybe I'm a dumbass, but I have a question about black holes.
#1. Black holes have a gravitational pull so powerful that even light cannot escape it's pull.
#2. Gravity is the universal force of attraction acting between all matter.
#3. Matter is that which occupies space and possesses rest mass
Therefore,
#4. Light is matter? And has weight/mass? So... does light weight something? What does light weigh?

>>14184576 Light passes through space in a straight line, but gravity distorts space so that photons appear to bend. Black holes distort space so much that it sorta folds onto itself, so light can't follow a path out of it.

How much political propaganda were you forced to consume during your education?
Forcing students to view political propaganda when they should be learning math and science will hinder progress in the long term, so why are children forced to view CNN?

>>14186523 Showing clips from CNN and Fox News reporting on the same event and comparing what information they present or don't present to show how the presentation of information can be manipulated to impart bias onto the listener could be a good lesson for high school civics. Using CNN as an actual authoritative source is what happens when you have teachers that are interested in indoctrination rather than teaching.

not only weight lifting helps develop your aerobic and anaerobic capaicty, leading to better "brain oxygenation", but being fit, and specially buff, triggers biological biases in humans that make people trust you, take you seriously, pay more attention to what you say
then why academia doesn't have a gym for faculty with free weights?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Washington_Carver >Carver is often mistakenly credited with the invention of peanut butter.[85] By the time Carver published "How to Grow the Peanut and 105 Ways of Preparing it For Human Consumption" in 1916,[86] many methods of preparation of peanut butter had been developed or patented by various pharmacists, doctors and food scientists working in the US and Canada.[87][88][89] The Aztecs were known to have made peanut butter from ground peanuts as early as the 15th century. Canadian pharmacist Marcellus Gilmore Edson was awarded U.S. Patent 306,727 (for its manufacture) in 1884, 12 years before Carver began his work at Tuskegee.[90][91]

is there any real difference between the 4th and 6th editions of the book molecular biology of the cell?
0815344643 (6th)
0815332181 (4th)
I can get a physical copy of the 4th edition for about $10 or the 6th for $100ish and was wondering if there is enough new info to justify the price. the 4th edition is 20 years old but if there isnt a lot of new material in cell i dont see a problem. its not strictly for school as I plan on reading this in free time so im not worried about problems being the same.

Honestly I would get the 6th edition. Cell biology isn't a dead science like organic chemistry and 20 years is a long time. Even something as fundamental RNAi was new back then. The human genome project concluded in the mid 2000s and it was a pretty big deal.
