Why is life so much more resilient than machines?
Living things are comprised of cells which (mostly) have some self-repair ability, and if they are not repairable, replacement cells can be grown by reproduction. Machines such as cars don't have this innate ability.- JayS0

Graduate Is this evidence that Venus originally had a nitrogen atmosphere?
Has MESSENGER found evidence that Venus originally had a nitrogen atmosphere, and might have been more habitable, and the present amount of CO2 was released by some cataclysm afterwards? https://phys.org/news/2020-04-lucky-messenger-upends-long-held-idea.html- JayS0

Undergrad Heating/cooling moon tunnels, why and how?
I suppose that the waste heat of a moon base inside the tunnel will heat it and cooling will be the problem. A lot of waste heat has to be dumped by the NASA Space Shuttle and the ISS.- JayS0

High School Cloud Cities on Venus: Viability & Feasibility
Advantages: abundant sunlight, good air pressure, some protection from radiation, atmosphere could be mined for carbon and nitrogen Disadvantages: have to protect against acid, can't use resources on the surface, can't "live off the land", have to bring our own oxygen and hydrogen, or extract...- JayS0

Interpreter vs Compiler: What Are the Differences and Benefits?
interpreted code runs more slowly because it is converted to machine code as it runs but interpreted code is good for proto-typing, when you want to make lots of changes and test quickly compiled code runs faster because it has all been converted to machine code already, and optimised for...- JayS0

Did complex animals evolve at deep sea volcanic vents?
We see complex animals such as crabs living near deep sea volcanic vents. (Reference: https://ocean.si.edu/ocean-life/invertebrates/hydrothermal-vent-creatures) This is causing speculation that similar life may be living near deep sea volcanic vents on other world such as Europa. Did these...- JayS0
