Glad to see that the tyrannosaurs had lips. Read more
Amazing CGI, looks like they mixed CGI with live action, or if not, those environments are like reality. Someone has been having fun with Maya and UE5.2 - or a custom engine. Read more

““We used two cutting edge submersibles that are named Romeo and Juliet”
I can’t decide whether to award points for resisting the urge to name them “Rose” and “Jack,” or subtract points for not naming them that. Read more
There are over 100 thousand dangerous, abandoned, unmarked mines all over the U.S. Read more
Fantastically interesting article. Good work. I have quite a connection to the California mining towns. My grandparents had a house in Downieville, and my family would go up to it often. In the late 80s and 90s it was still a charming and sleepy post gold rush mountain town that was a lot of fun for a boy to visit and… Read more
Does the answer to this riddle have to be guaranteed to be answerable as true or false, or is that just the requirement for a device to respond?

Well, unless the EPA addresses the elephant in the room — how easy it currently is for fossil fuel companies to game the ‘carbon capture’ system (to the tune of an estimated half a billion dollars already) without actually changing anything about their business model — this is going to be a complete waste of time and… Read more
I used to work as an engineering geologist - including in my time a couple of landfill redesigns (sic)
They do indeed have incredible engineering...
The craziest thing I saw related to the chemistry/oxygen was when they had to move (as regulators directed) the contents of a much older portion of the landfill (1940s-ish)… Read more
This is a fascinating subject thanks for posting. Read more
