Or is it all predetermined?

| Posted: 23 Dec 2018 09:26 PM PST Apparently it is due to their long neck, which seems to be an evolutionary glitch to me. I would assume they are in even more danger of restriction to their windpipes. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 24 Dec 2018 02:44 AM PST How do we actually know how much mass a planet or moon has? Wouldnt its make up be kind of a complete ball park, therefore its mass be just a guess? Therefore its gravitational force be sort of a ballpark? But then how can we use it precisely? [link] [comments]  |
| What factors cause/increase the chance of rain? Posted: 24 Dec 2018 04:34 AM PST I am a student studying software and im playing around with a simple machine learning library. I want to create a small program that can predict if it is raining or not by looking at a list of numerical attributes that may suggest rainfall. Im dont have much knowledge of meteorology, what atmospherical attributes am i looking for? (things such as high humidity % or high pressure) thanks [link] [comments]  |
| How do you accurately calculate an azimuth between faraway countries? Posted: 24 Dec 2018 02:43 AM PST Hi, reddit! I am a travelling Network engineer about to travel to Poznan, Poland for work. Before leaving I wanted to give my son a compass because I thought it would be cool for him to be able to tell which direction I was. I started to do the math to calculate the azimuth between my (aprox) home and my (aprox) work location but I ran into some unexpected problems. I used online tools to help calculate, but all of them give impossible answers when I run the numbers. EX. lat,lon: 16.9, 52.4 (Poznan, Poland) and -81.2, 33.9 (Columbia, South Carolina) if I run the numbers with a standard azimuth calculator like: https://keisan.casio.com/exec/system/1317262499 then the answer I get is somewhere around 298 degrees in the northwest! I would expect some small margin of error, but results like this seem nonsensical. Can someone with more experience in this area help me find where I am going wrong? [link] [comments]  |

| Do our ears adjust when listening to very quiet sounds? Posted: 24 Dec 2018 06:36 AM PST More specifically, is there a change that happens to our ears akin to pupils dilating in low light in order for quieter sounds (or sounds of different frequencies) to be picked up? [link] [comments]  |
| Is psychopathy considered a binary diagnosis or is it seen as a spectrum? Posted: 24 Dec 2018 07:36 AM PST Basically, could a person who displays a lack of empathy for the most part but displays genuine empathy in certain situations be accurately diagnosed as a psychopath? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 24 Dec 2018 07:28 AM PST For example, if a baby were to learn a language (lets call it gibberish#1) that has every phoneme+more of another language (gibberish#2) could that baby learn gibberish#2 and speak it without an accent, having acquired all the required phonemes for gibberish#2 when they learned gibberish#1?

| What is the purpose of homosexual interaction between animals? Posted: 24 Dec 2018 05:13 AM PST I recently learned that about 90% of sexual interactions between giraffes happen between males. This surprised me, since I'd always assumed that homosexuality was a... genetic mutation that got passed down sparingly over time and was only ever present in a minority of a species? (not really sure about any of this tbh) [link] [comments]  |
| What kind of soil and atmosphere analysis do Mars rovers do to test for extinct and extant life? Posted: 24 Dec 2018 05:00 AM PST What automated tests take place on these rovers to search for extinct and extant life? [link] [comments]  |

| Why do you taste things much sweeter as an adult than as a child? Posted: 23 Dec 2018 10:34 PM PST Why when someone eats a sweet thing from their childhood, it does taste much sweeter than what you recall as a kid? [link] [comments]  |
| How large is Earths temperate orbital butterzone? Posted: 24 Dec 2018 03:08 AM PST So, life on this planet is somewhat delicate. We are placed at the exact spot around a star the exact size necessary to support life on this planet and seemingly this planet alone. How large is the butterzone of this exact orbit? Would we have to move hundreds of thousands of miles in or out just to change 1 degree or is it one of those "3 asteroid strikes and you are out of bounds" kinda things? [link] [comments]  |

| How does a microwave melt butter? Posted: 23 Dec 2018 11:01 PM PST Everything I've ever seen says that microwaves work by spinning water molecules, taking advantage of the fact that they're polar. If I put a stick of butter in a bowl and microwave it, it will melt, but butter is not polar as far as I know. So how does the microwave heat it? [link] [comments]  |
| Why do atoms not seem to bond in a "closed circuit" type structure? Posted: 23 Dec 2018 02:23 PM PST Not sure if I'm wording that right. Just recently started reading online about physics and chemistry. I have lot of questions but one that I asked in highschool and never got a satisfying answer from my teacher was why o3 (ozone) doesnt make a triangle like bond within itself and has a single bond double bond thing going on. Like o=o-o rather than 3 single bonds in which all the atoms share a bond with each other. Please help. [link] [comments]  |
| How does speed affect time in our galaxy that is flying through space and spinning around a SMBH? Posted: 23 Dec 2018 09:44 PM PST From my understanding the faster you travel the slow time "tics" for you. Does that mean that time depends on how fast your host galaxy is traveling through the universe? [link] [comments]  |
