The first cell with a surviving lineage to get organised. There could have been countless other 'attempts' that, for one reason or another, failed to get established, or died out before they could leave a trace in the fossil record.

About a week after that went viral - https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2024/05/amazon-s3...

And even that Bill was refused assent as Parliament asked Queen Anne to do so as they wanted to make some changes to it.

The enteric nervous system certainly evolved first!

I can't remember a time when I didn't know the word, but then I grew up near London so used the Tube regularly as a child.

I like how the phrase "I didn't say she stole my wallet." changes meaning completely depending on which word(s) you emphasise.

People think of "Tuesday night" as the night that falls at the end of Tuesday, however the majority of it from an astronomy perspective tends to fall after midnight (particularly with daylight savings time), hence it's referred to as the 2nd.

Beat me to it, I was going to go for "X Is All You Need Papers Considered Harmful"

I know at least one affected engineer there.

You do know Boris hasn't been in charge since last July, right?

Oh, they take full responsibility, it always says so in the mails they send out. It's just that taking responsibility doesn't appear to actually result in anything happening.

The oral traditions of the Klamath people describe the eruption that turned Mount Mazama into Crater Lake 8000 years ago, too.

During the time that scene was set there _was_ no light in the sky, all light came in sideways from the Two Trees.

Right! When they unironically take the "Dey took 'er jerbs!!" line from South Park with zero awareness of how ridiculous it was in context. Why would the Men of Numenor be worried about elves stealing their jobs when no elf had set foot there for many, many years?

The last Queen of England was Anne, after the Acts of Union in 1707 she became Queen of Great Britain, as the position has remained since.

Amusingly, Queen Anne was the last female head of state of America, too.

Right, and the fact that that wood is destined to be harvested means it's not really long-term carbon storage, either.

It is my understanding that the question was pre-recorded and submitted in advance, the 'fault' seems to lie with the moderator who selected that one to be answered.

Parts of that section are open to the sky, too, so not really under the ground.

An apology that came twenty years too late!
