Pre-electronic records, yes they wrote a lot. Lot's of things were done in shorthand or with forms to reduce the writing. It's also that a doctor's time is valuable, saving 30 seconds on a prescription is a lot when you write 10s or hundreds per day.

It's a super common prescription and most doctors probably couldn't spell it offhand. Combined with dosing info it would be more obvious. Also if they do happen to be wrong it's unlikely to actually cause harm with acetaminophen/paracetamol.

Edit: another benefit is disguising to a patient that demands something to take. Essentially a placebo.

It's not trivial to be an astronaut, but most didn't need to be. Flying the ships, docking, and landing on an asteroid all require intense skills. The drilling required a similarly intense set of skills that you can't gain in a week. You can probably teach someone the bare minimum of putting on a suit and working in it.

I don't understand the the thinking that astronauts would be amazing drillers. Drilling is functionally a trade, the education aspect isn't the key factor, it's the experience. The movie actually does a fair job explaining why.

That's probably the best way to put it without writing an essay. 5 is intentional with mechanics, new ones become available as older ones become automated or less relevant. 6 is just a constant barrage of things happening, especially with gathering storm.

That's because professors are still intended to be researchers first, which makes sense for the cutting edge topics, but there's a ton of college level fundamentals you need to understand first.

You are roughly a decade late. Computers have been grading essays for a long time. The mcat for example hasn't had human grading in about that long.

It's not about only billionaires paying, it's about them not being a magical money source. A higher rate might feel better, but it's not solving government revenue problems.

We could have a couple year of almost not having a deficit.

5 had better pacing for mechanics, 6 bombards players with lots of things from the start and then goes a but flat.

Those dead limbs under the leaves definitely need to go. Not sure about the whole tree. In my experience an arborist is more aggressive about keeping trees and will recommend treatments that aren't always worth it.
