Did Will Turner need to stab Jones's heart?

In "At World's End" Jack Sparrow is about to stab Davy Jones's heart when Davy Jones stabs Will Turner, so they have Will Turner stab Davy Jones's heart so he will live as the new ferry man of souls.

But if Jack stabbed Davy Jones's heart then Jack would be the ferry man and wouldn't Jack, as the ferry man, have the authority to free Will's soul from death?

Will would have died at sea and Jack would now be in a position to determine where Will's soul goes. Davy Jones often uses his power to force people to be his crew, and he has the power to free people from his crew; Jack could take Will's soul and free him to live.

Or is the option when you die at sea to either go to the afterlife or serve as the crew of the Flying Dutchman? Not to just go home safe and sound.

Why isn't the solid core of the Earth layered?

I understand that heavy elements sink and lighter elements float to the top in a liquid like the Earth was when it was forming. I understand that for the most part the mantle is lighter elements and the core is heavier elements. But when I read about the core of the Earth it sounds like it's pretty mixed with all the heavy elements in the core.

Why doesn't the solid inner core of the Earth layer itself by elemental weight like an onion? Shouldn't the heavy elements like Uranium sink to the center while the lighter elements like Iron (because it sounds like elements lighter than iron are in the mantle) be at the top?

I know convection tends to mix elements together but the core solidified. Is the answer because there was convection mixing all the heavy elements in the core together until it all froze into a solid form due to pressure? I know that's why the mantle doesn't layer itself. It's always mixing.

Where are my saved games?

Today when I opened Starcraft I found my save files are missing. They are still in my documents but for some reason the game isn't looking at them. How do I get my game to see, load, and save my save files?

EDIT: By the way, I'm playing version 1.23.10.13515

IMPORTANT EDIT: Nevermind, it's fixed now. For some reason I just needed to quit the game and reload the game.

Why aren't we putting these creatures in landfills?

Why aren't we putting these creatures in landfills to eat plastic? Supposedly they don't eat fast fast enough but with animals if there is more food than can be consumed won't their population increase to a level that matches the food supply?

Can living organisms extract Carbon from CO2?

Can living organisms extract carbon from CO2 or do they just take other atoms and stick them to CO2? Because I hear plants don't produce oxygen from CO2, they produce oxygen from water. This makes me think they just stick hydrogen from water, and other elements and molecules, and just build around the CO2 molecule like it's unbreakable by biological standards.

Where I'm going with this is if an organism can extract carbon from CO2 could it be engineered to take that carbon and stick it together to form a diamond structure and literally grown diamonds.

How much energy would lab grown diamonds cost per gram?

Biological cells seem to have the ability to take atoms and bond them together. If we were to engineer bacteria or some kind of living organism to bond carbon atoms together (isn't that a diamond?) and literally grow a diamond, how much energy would it cost to do so?

Is there a way to factor how much energy a molecule or crystal needs to form?

I know this site sort of answers it (1) But I think they are using methods that seem really clumsy and mechanical (2) instead of just using a cell to pluck carbon atoms and stick it to other carbon atoms.

Difference between bleach and salt water

Is bleach just salt water that has been separated by electricity and put back together? Because when I see the ingredients of bleach it seems to be made of everything that is already in salt water and the only difference is that electrolysis was used to separate the parts before they were put back together.

I understand the difference between bleach and salt water is the main molecule has an extra oxygen atom thrown in, most likely through the separation and mixing process, and I'm wondering if bleach can be compared to a building while salt water can be compared to rubble. It sounds to me salt water is all the elements broken down in water while bleach seems to be in a molecule and not in pieces.

What is the fastest rate humans can reproduce?

I once had a math question, when I was in algebra, that showed an equation for calculating the population growth rate of rabbits. It factored their mortality rate vs. how many offspring they had, how many times they had children, how quickly their children grew up, and how quickly those children started having children.

I was wondering how to do this with humans. How do I calculate a human population growth based on those variables? I found this calculator but I don't know what to put for the growth rate. I'm guessing the growth rate is the question I'm trying to find out.

Why not arm drone swarms?

I understand the most effective drone in a drone swarm is a drone that is the munition but can't some drones in a drone swarm be armed with missiles and programed to immediately target air defenses that are used against the drones in the swarm?

That way you can take out air defenses by getting them to expose themselves when they fire on drone swarms, and fire on them.

Are living creatures more efficient than machines?

Does a living creature require more or less energy to perform a task than a machine? For example, would an 80 kilogram person running a mile require more or less energy in calories than an 80 kilogram vehicle driving a mile?

I'm just curious to know what uses energy more efficiently.

Are rare earth metals really everywhere?

I have heard rare earth metals are practically everywhere in soil. Does that mean if we develop bio leaching commercially we could harvest all rare earth metals anywhere in any country? Or are some rare earth metals really only in few places like any deposit?

Is this line of code safe?

I'm having trouble with my computer's search bar giving me results and I was told to follow this instruction https://www.elevenforum.com/t/reset-windows-search-in-windows-11.23308/ which results in opening windows powershell and typing in the following line of code...

PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -File "$Env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\ResetWindowsSearchBox.ps1"

Before I do that I just want to make sure I'm not doing something to help someone hack my computer. The code looks innocent enough but I don't know for certain.
