  "Our analysis of DNA from the Yamnaya [Yamna] -- led by Iosif Lazaridis in my laboratory -- showed that they harbored a combination of ancestries that did not previously exist in Central Europe.   The Yamnaya were the missing ingredient, carrying exactly the type of ancestry that needed to be added to early European farmers and hunter-gatherers to produce populations with the mixture of ancestries observed in Europe today.   Our ancient DNA data also allowed us to learn how the Yamnaya themselves had formed from earlier populations.   From 7K to 5K years ago [3K BCE], we observed a steady in-flux into the steppe of a population whose ancestors traced their origin to the South -- as it bore genetic affinity to ancient and present-day people of Armenia and Iran -- eventually crystallizing in the Yamnaya, who were about a one-to-one ratio of ancestry from these two sources.   A good guess is that the migration proceeded via the Caucasus isthmus between the Black and Caspian seas.   Ancient DNA data produced by Wolfgang Haak, Johannes Krause, and their colleagues have shown that the populations of the Northern Caucasus had ancestry of this type continuing up until the time of the Maikop [Maykop] culture, which just preceded the Yamnaya...     Not only did the Maikop [Maykop] pass on to the Yamnaya [Yamna] their technology of carts, but they were also the first to build the kurgans [burial mounds] that characterized the steppe cultures for thousands of years afterward.   The penetration of Maikop lands by Iranian- and Armenian-related ancestry from the South is also plausible in light of studies showing that Maikop goods were heavily influenced by elements of the Uruk civilization of Mesopotamia to the South, which was poor in metal resources and engaged in trade and exchange with the North as reflected in Uruk goods found in settlements of the Northern Caucasus.   Whatever cultural process allowed the people from the South to have such a demographic impact, once the Yamnaya formed, their descendants expanded in all directions." --- David Reich & Eugenie Reich 2018 _Who We Are and How We Got Here: Ancient DNA & the New Science of the Human Past_ pp108-109

  "Permit requirements & procedures vary widely (& wildly) from county to county. If you are planning to build on the East Coast or in California, prepare to learn a whole new meaning for the term «red tape». In less [over-]developed areas, permit procedures may be much easier. The permit procedure from application to approval may take anywhere from hours to months. In most cases, officials will [demand] to review copies of our final blue-prints. Be sure to take permit time requirements into cosideration when scheduling. There aren't many places left were you can simply go down to the permit office, write a check, and head for your job site to meet the excavator." --- Jim Cooper 2000 _Log Homes Made Easy: Contracting & Building Your Own Log Home_ pg119

Except that computer people use 2 as a base raised to multiples of powers of 10, instead of 10 raised to multiples of powers of 3 because powers of 2 are handier for them, but they also want to stay somewhat close to the values of 10 most folks are used to.

  "When physicists try to merge quantum mechanics and general relativity, 2 big problems come up.   First, there is the fact that quantum mechanics seems to work only on flat, boring, non-bendy space.   If you try to make quantum mechanics work for gravity on curved, wobbly space, weird things start to happen.   You see, in order to make quantum mechanics «work» in the first lace, physicists «have to» apply a special mathematical trick called re-normalization.   It is what allows quantum mechanics to deal with «strange» infinities, like the infinite charge density of a point particle electron or the infinite number of very-low-energy photons that an electron can radiate.   By using [?abusing?] renormalization, physicists can sweep all of these infinities under the rug and pretend there aren't any dead bodies hiding under there.   Unfortunately, when we try to apply renormalization to a quantum gravity theory with bendy space, it doesn't «work» [the way they desire].   As soon as you get rid of one infinity, another one pops up.   No matter how many of them you try to hide, there seems to be an infinite number of infinities [which makes mathematicians & physicists irrationally anxious, causing them to run off to a «safe» space-time perhaps made out of Play-Doh]." --- Jorge Cham, Ph.D. & Daniel Whiteson, Ph.D. 2017 _We Have No Idea_ pp296-297
