Yeah. I suppose it's up for debate whether that's a feature or a bug.

@NicolauSakerNeto It is very similar to this rain dance, but the lyrics are different: Publication - yeah! - Publication - surpassed the peers - publication - yeah!

@Martin, yeah, safety is obviously paramount. Still, there's something ineffably gorgeous about pristine pieces of macroscale glassware arrayed in orderly rows that makes it hard to live with cracks and dark stains.

Q: Should there be a constant tag?

FreddyI was just reading some question and felt that there should be constant tag in which all the constant should be included (plank's constant, Avogadro constant,etc). Take a look at this question which according to me requires constant tag.

@ManishEarth We are all human and it happens to all of us :D And I am very confident in our mods, you are doing a great job, that is very much appreciated.

The royal "we" or majestic plural (pluralis maiestatis in Latin, literally, "the plural of majesty"), is the use of a plural pronoun to refer to a single person holding a high office, such as a monarch, bishop, or pope. The more general word for the use of we to refer to oneself is nosism. However the use as majestic plural (to denote the excellence, power, and dignity of the person who speaks or writes) is the most common one. Speakers employing the royal we refers to themselves using a grammatical number other than the singular (i.e., in plural or dual form). For example, the Basic L...

That just made me very sad. Very, very sad.

@LordStryker Thank you. I just wanted to add one thing - I could really feel the passion you have for the subject you research in. Hope you will always keep it alive.

Then you've got people who try and figure out what it is that's in front of them. Maybe someone gets a sample of water from a local water source and its their job to figure out what's in the water.

Of course a LOT of things are being synthesized other than drugs. New materials, chemicals, molecules, etc.

@Amaterasu One day your name might be added to the list. Becoming a scientist is one step closer!!

"Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!": Adventures of a Curious Character is an edited collection of reminiscences by the Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman. The book, released in 1985, covers a variety of instances in Feynman's life. Some are lighthearted in tone, such as his fascination with safe-cracking, studying various languages, participating with groups of people who share different interests (such as biology or philosophy), and ventures into art and samba music. Others cover more serious material, including his work on the Manhattan Project (during which his first wife...

I was looking for the Seinfeld clip where he and the model are in first class, and the flight attendant says "More anything?" and they reply "More EVERYTHING!" That captures how we'd fly on Manish's tab.

essentially it all boils down to this... when my fingers have to leave the keyboard for the mouse, I get upset.

So like "Table 1: The blablibloo is in column 1, then column 2 got filled with the shits observed, in column 3 the shits assigned and finally in column 4 the shits given. The downwards trend in column four is very clear and due to faults in the experimentational setup..."?
