Accepting the surface gravity limit of 1.25 to 1.5 g and the minimum escape velocity of 6.25 kilometers per second from Habitable planets for Man Stephen H. Dole, 1964,

Let's use these calculators to find these variables

I'm using 22km for the length of Manhattan which gives us a planetary radius of ~3.5km

3.5km makes it impossible to have both an acceptable surface gravity and escape velocity for an atmosphere. I was looking at a 3e-7 earth mass which provides the correct gravity but it's too low of an escape velocity. Raising the mass increases the gravity very quickly. Even so a 3e-7 earth mass is a density of 10e7 kg/m^3 which is in the red dwarf density. I am not skilled enough in astrophysics to be certain but it seems to object would undergo some sort gravitational collapse

Not op but I grow pollinator gardens in my community garden which typically attracts bees, hummingbirds etc.; check with your local nursery because there should be a native plant seed mix you can buy.

You may be a little late in the season (assuming northern hemisphere) for most seed mixes because I've mostly seen suggested sowing in fall or late spring

Assuming you mean viral load referring to mucuses or blood of the infected. Given that the human influenza virus' entry requires the viral surface proteins (hemagglutinin (HA)) to bind to acids present on respiratory epithelial cells along with cleavage of HA by host cell proteases (enzymes that breakdown proteins) to facilitate membrane fusion. These trypsin-like proteases are mainly expressed in airway tissues, restricting influenza viral tissue response to the respiratory tract. I would say it would be highly unlikely for influenza viral replication existing in an environment lacking this crucial interaction let alone a low-pH environment like the GI tract

The shepherd at night is probably a red herring. Shepherds stay out at night during lambing season which is February-April in Europe and North America but November-March in Israel

Tbf you are supposed use the signal before turning wheel

Depends how you look at the numbers. While there's definitely some positive increase in the in red states with a modest sub-1% growth rate, they saw a 2% growth rate previously. So on its face it looks like a positive increase but it's still a negative trend with a -50% reduction of the base line

Conversely, blue states were seeing a -0.5% growth rate but have tightened that to -0.05% so that's a 10x increase over baseline while still seeing a population decline

This just seems to be detecting if the browser is Firefox. The function is even named isGecko which is Mozilla's browser engine used by Firefox. Edge, IE (Trident) don't return true from isGecko

Unless I'm missing something I don't see where the delay is added
