Morality is more likely to be instilled by parent and influential peers rather than books. If it is going to be from books, it is very likely to be because your parents told you to obey the book, and you in turn obey your parents. Morality is thus a cultural property for the most part, with the...

There is an actual NASA project researching a genuine warping engine. I have heard reports of it a few times in the last few years, and I believe the most recent development was a design that didn't require a massive amount of energy, making it actually possible to run. Link related The big...

Yes it would! But I don't think we know how to create wormholes, whereas creating warped space is known to be possible in theory, and design for machines to do it already exist, they are just impossible to build as they need materials that do not occur naturally ("exotic elements" I think they...

I think what you actually need to do is to just customise the ribbon. The customisation menus have options to add new buttons for macros. I have only done it once before, but I remember I got it working with ease. You could also try adding the button to the Quick Access toolbar above ribbon...

Just to clarify though, the theory was that you can't travel faster than light 'through space'. The warp technology just changes the distances in space, so although you personally don't travel faster than light, you only travel a small distance and still end up at the distant location. Hence the...

We cannot prove that they exist (yet!). We can prove that they are ALLOWED to exist, which is a step in the right direction. But yes for now F=ma is only a confirmed law for our Universe. I'm not sure what your argument is, but hopefully this clarification helps in some way. I might add that...

Laws of physics are unbreakable, because we have not found a way to break them. The phrase 'Law of Physics' is a human term to refer to these rules that are seemingly embedded into the way the universe works. I can't remember for sure, but I don't think laws that hold in our universe are...

I'm not too sure about this one, but I'll take a stab with an idea. I think this could be related to the way in which Access tries to link a subform and its parent. When you create a subform through the wizard, as some point it will ask you to tell it a criteria to apply to the records on the...

Possible references problem: the function it used no longer exists in the libraries of the more modern program. In the VBA editor you can go to Tool, then References, and tell the system to also load older libraries (you'll need to look up what the office 97 libraries were called). Many times...

Well I contest the point that a theory based on mathematics is purely a dream. All the established theories are based on mathematics. Take a theory like quantum mechanics. Originally that was a purely mathematical theory that made a number of shocking predictions (e.g. things exists in more than...

There is a slight difference. Before you come to the conclusion you would need to test it by experiment. So you would go to a zoo, take out the elephants, and see if the universe suddenly imploded. Finding that it doesn't, you discover your hypothesis isn't correct, and no law is declared! In...

In defense of scientists here: not knowing one 'thing' isn't going to stop us knowing a different 'thing'. We don't know everything there is to know about dark matter, no. So what? In what way does that invalidate everything that we do know? To find a theory to be correct and thus call it a law...

The implication of the post is that if Obama was born outside of the US then is he is fundamentally someone not to be trusted. Isn't that a bit harsh? He is a man of US culture and upbringing who believes himself to be born in the USA. Even if he is wrong about that, or lying to avoid a glass...

I would put some code in the After Update event of the combo box that checks what the value is and sets the visibility accordingly. Using the code from the link above: If Me.Manager = "Something" Then Me.ManagerContact.Visible = False Me.ManagerTelNo.Visible = False Else...

Did you mean to attach an example file? I don't see anything...

Possible cause is simply that there are many more Access developer sites than there used to be, so each single page is less obviously relevant to a search. Our website has gradually slid down rankings over the years despite all our efforts, and we found it correlated with a huge increase in the...

Can't say I've heard it done, but to do it you would need to do it in two steps: 1) Hard bit. Write a VBA macro that can use the scanner to get an image. The macro would then add the image to the table just like adding regular data to a table, (probably need an 'attachment' type field to...

That's basically the problem with all this! :D Our poor brains, developed to be good at hunting things and teamwork, have no capacity to understand higher dimensions. All we can do is trust the words of the mathematicians who have trained themselves to be able to just partially comprehend...

If the universe is not infinite, then it is very likely to be 'round' in the 3D sense. Meaning when you reach the 'edge', you actually just end up back where you started (like in the original Mario Brothers: keep running left and you come out on the right!). That's the 'physical' edge of the...

You are right. This exact conversations would be happening again somewhere in reality, if its boundaries are limitless. I don't think its a reason to dismiss the idea. Why CAN'T this exchange happen more than once? It is uncomfortable to think about, sure, but that is no reason to say it must be...
