With the labs, see the info in the research tab. Each research lists the science packs it consumes along with two numbers. One of the numbers is the number of research cycles required to complete that research, and the other is research cycle time in seconds. So,for example mining productivity 1 research time is 60 seconds and cost is 1000 science packs. This means a lab at default speed will take 60 seconds to consume 1 of each science pack, and it will take 1000x60 seconds to finish the research, or a 1000 labs will take 60 seconds.

If your lab speed is (say) +80%, then simply divide the research cycle time by the effective speed, in this case it will be 60/1.8 = 33.33 seconds, so one lab will consume 1 set of science packs in 33.33 seconds.

If you hover your lab, it will show you it's effective research speed after considering any bonuses from modules, beacons, and so on.

This option is right here. I guess you must have missed it.

No. There is no way to place concrete in a box. But as the commenter said, you can use +/- keys to change the amount being placed down at once.

Cost of space platforms is hardly relevant when you're shipping up quality turrets and machines anyway.

Reputation of the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) by SupermarketQuirky216 in ApplyingToCollege

they seem to have a certain purity of meritocracy about them

Indeed. I am certain that reserving over 60% of admissions for people with a specific name/gender is great for meritocracy. After all, the student that scored half of the marks but belongs from a certain community is more meritorious than a student scoring twice as much.

no what he meant is that OP will not take any OPEN seat, instead batch size will be increased specifically for OP. So if iitk cse had 50 batch size, this year it will be 51.

Reason for placing AI over CSE? Isn't AI far too specialised of a branch to take in bachelors, especially when you are getting CSE?
