| How does computer memory work when the computer is turned off? Posted: 23 Sep 2017 09:08 AM PDT Do the currents keep on going somehow in the semiconductor chips? Is it somehow that the state is stored in a static manner? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 23 Sep 2017 01:25 PM PDT I understand that there's differences in the sugar composition (sucrose as a disaccharide vs glucose/fructose as monosaccharides, and that fruits contain more fructose), but I don't understand why "alternative" sugars like HFCS seem to be a relatively new thing, and limited to basically just corn so far as I'm aware. In theory, humans have had access to fruit pretty much forever, so why do we only use a few dedicated sugar crops to produce refined sugar, instead of more regionally accessible fruits? Is it simply a matter of economics, or is there some inherent difference that makes refining fruit sugars impossible? [link] [comments]  |

| Do ape's toenails grow slower than their fingernails, like humans? Posted: 23 Sep 2017 06:33 PM PDT I know our toenails grow 3-4 times slower than our fingernails, just wondering how we compare to apes. [link] [comments]  |

| Does Quinine glow even after you remove it from a black light? Posted: 23 Sep 2017 09:50 AM PDT So I know that quinine glows when you shine a black light on it. However, I don't know what happens when you take it away, and a quick Google search doesn't seem to help. Does the quinine found in tonic water continue to glow after taking the black light away from it? My end goal is to make homemade nuka cola quantum that glows, but I don't know if using quinine is worth it if I always need a black light. [link] [comments]  |

| What can layers and swrils in rock indicate? Posted: 23 Sep 2017 05:41 AM PDT I drive by this out cropping everyday and I've always noticed the curves and waves in the rock. What causes bending like this? I know it probably took a billion years for it to show on the side of the highway in NE Tennessee, but what can you tell from looking at it? [link] [comments]  |
| Why can't you count the number of things touching you in a certain spot? Posted: 23 Sep 2017 08:12 AM PDT If someone poked me in the back with multiple fingers and asked me to count how many fingers were on my back, I would not be able to come up with an accurate number. I don't mean getting poked in the arm and on the hip because those are two separate places and it's obvious; I mean getting poked in one area with multiple fingers. Obviously it gets more difficult the closer together those fingers are, but regardless it's still nigh impossible to count correctly if they're all in one region. Why? [link] [comments]  |
