Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How much do you need to retire early?English
21·2 days agoYour question is too vague. It all depends on what you consider an acceptable lifestyle and also what area of the world plays a huge part.

Astronomy@mander.xyz•Astronomers learn galaxies mature faster than previously believed after analyzing detailed images of 18 galaxies located 12.5 billion light-years awayEnglish
3·1 month agoA key finding from the survey is that the galaxies are maturing faster in several ways than researchers previously believed. For one, the galaxies are more chemically enriched than expected, which means they have produced more heavy elements, in particular carbon and oxygen, than was thought possible during this early age of the cosmos.
As galaxies evolve, pockets of gas within them condense and ignite into stars. The new stars churn out heavy elements like carbon, which then become building blocks for the next generation of stars. Ultimately, these heavy elements (referred to as metals in astronomy) are required to make planetary systems, and even humans, in the case of our own solar system.
“How do metals form in less than 1 billion years? It was a surprise to see such chemically mature galaxies,” Faisst says. “It’s like seeing 2-year-old children act like teenagers.”

politics @lemmy.world•House Republicans move to override Trump vetoes in rare show of defianceEnglish
2·1 month agoI don’t quite agree with your assessment. There are not a whole lot of mechanisms in the constitution for “the people” do more than vote every couple of years or violently opposed the elected government. Look at fetterman and sinema. Both turn from what seemed to be progressive candidates to the main reason several legislative things fell through. I’m sure several people wish they could do something more immediate than wait until their term is up.

15·1 month agoIt doesn’t work when you don’t have a defined mechanism to enforce the balance after the check. These historical documents were written when your word meant something. Like they said above it works when people are doing things in good faith.

Space@mander.xyz•Milky Way shows gamma ray excess due to dark matter annihilation, study suggestsEnglish
6·4 months agoNew research shows that dark matter has a different distribution in our galaxy than previously thought, and that advances dark matter’s status as a potential source of the observed gamma ray excess in the Milky Way’s center. High-resolution simulations reveal that the dark matter distribution in the inner galaxy is not spherical, but flattened and asymmetrical. The findings confirm the theory that the gamma ray excess is due to dark matter annihilation.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•People who don't/can't sleep when they're "supposed to", why? What do you do during this time?English
10·4 months agoThey are not very accurate. You’re more likely to get yelled at by a NCO(non commissioned officer) than by an officer on a day to day basis. Most officers are like middle managers until you hit the O-5 to O-6 rank. Officers give out orders, NCOs carryout orders using junior enlisted personnel. Most harassment stops outside of basic/advanced training, unless someone in your unit gets in trouble and then they might do a mass punishment where everyone is cleaning the barracks on a Friday night or over the weekend. I’m white, so I can’t speak much to the discrimination part, other than it didn’t happen much in the jobs that I was in. I’m positive it happens, but it didn’t happen out in the open when I was in. Obviously the current administration for the US government is changing that a bit. I can’t speak for the person you asked the question to, but I had two combat deployments and two trips to South Korea, with a solid bit of PTSD from the deployments.
