Reply to TIL that on top of the 3 matters of state that we’re all familiar with (solid, liquid, gas), there are at least 24 more, though most only exist under extreme conditions by gianthooverpig
I think you mean states of matter....

Exact same orbit? Exact same speed? This sounds terribly dangerous if not. Why am I wrong?

AI was not navigating this vehicle; a human was.
Also, we didn't need to know the make of the vehicle. The outcome would have been the same in a Chevy, Ford, BMW, etc... reporting agency is trying real hard for a specific reaction to a completely irrelevant detail.

I had a feeling that was going to happen. Grab the original link and paste it in at removepaywall.com
I'd investigate further if I was in front of my computer.

I am half way through Elantris now and enjoying it.
The Way of Kings is fantastic.
The first Mistborn trilogy is also really good.
I have not finished Stormlight Archive yet. I loved WoK so much that I wanted to go back and read everything he wrote up to that point before continuing.
Maybe start with Mistborn, Final Empire. Plenty of great character development there and a very well thought out, very good story.
Remember that Elantris is his first book ever published. Even so, Orson Scott Card gave it quite the endorsement.
His other work are praised by Michael Moorcock, Patrick Rothfuss, and other accomplished writers.
I would not give up on Sanderson. You'll really be missing out.

I am currently making my way through the complete works of Brandon Sanderson and have not noticed this.
His writing feels flawless.

Reply to Smoking increases the risks of 56 diseases and kills more than one million adults in China each year from 22 different causes. The study included over 512,000 adults who were recruited during 2004-08 from 10 diverse urban and rural areas by Wagamaga
But maybe we should do another study. So we can...you know...be really, really sure.

Reply to Lopsided star cluster may disprove Newton and Einstein, controversial new study claims. An uneven distribution of stars in several nearby clusters may offer evidence of MOND — a controversial theory of gravity that disputes Newton and rejects the existence of dark matter. by nimobo
How would you like to be so damn smart that people spend your entire life and nearly 70 years after your death entertaining the idea that you might have been wrong about something?
