I looked down and saw that my new trousers are, in fact, very close to a color that's in the forecast.

I didn't explain clearly enough, my bad. The complexity I'm talking about is not bureaucratic in nature, it's the result of complexity in our environment. Let's take a parallel example of a business - a individual contri

I learned a while back that Hammurabi's Code contained a proto-building code, in that a builder whose building collapsed and harmed its occupant could be punished in a similar way. However the occupant was still harmed. Individuals mus

I reckon you could skip spraying it if you were going to eat it anyway. Did you know that wheat in the US is sprayed with glyphosate right before harvest? It causes all the wheat to dry evenly, avoiding the need to cut down the wheat and wi

This, coupled with the news that OAI will allow erotica style adult outputs from ChatGPT certainly opens up some new possibilities. I'm imagining ChatGPT having a Clippy style avatar that tries to sell you stuff. It appears that you&#x

I'm deeply suspicious of these LLM vendors. How are they going to monetize? What happens to the treasure trove of data about everything including users sexual preferences and specific fantasies when it's time to pay down those d

Potatoes are ~0.7kg/L, so that's ~8.4L of potato over the course of the day & 370 grams per waking hour, which is one big potato. Yes my examples were somewhat high energy density but in the second example, I probably had 3L+

What do you mean by 'making this a product?' Building proofs of concept isn't that hard. When you need to produce thousands of them, and you've got market/product/engineering requirements, V&V, component so

The juicero wasn't well-engineered, it was overbuilt, and comically so. Apparently BOM cost did not feature in the product requirements. There's a saying - anyone can design a building that stands, but only an engineer can design

About 6 weeks into a cross country bike tour, I spent a rest day eating all day. I think I ate 4 massive burgers and a large supreme pizza. Probably somewhere around 6000 calories. A week prior, I ran out of food in the mountains. I finally

It's sort of shocking. Compared to alcohol, where someone might plausibly get as drunk off of 1 drink as someone else might from 5, with THC the plausible ratio is more like 1:50 between naive and heavy users (IME).

771K people isn't a small number. 0.23% isn't a small number when it comes to homelessness. This also doesn't consider people who are housed but are overcrowded or living in otherwise very poor environments. You also ignore t

Not just cost, but typically some volume/mass as well. For a keyboard I think there'd be some sacrifice in "key feel".

If that's a pure and whole definition, then having no taxes at all would surely result in the best economy possible, yes?

That's way more than the US RDA, which is 0.8g/kg. I try to hit 2g/kg when I'm actively training as an athlete, and it's not that easy, and the tradeoffs to diet probably aren't worth it for most people.

Cymer is now a business unit of ASML. I can't immediately find reference to them licensing from Sandia, although I do see a mention of a collaboration with LLNL. How'd you work this out and can you link a resource or publication?

Weight. Packed size. Most people don't need a handle, so why waste volume and material on it? I think the Toshiba Toughbook had a handle. I think many folks here, given their druthers, would design something that looked like a Toughboo

Perhaps it's just that in retrospect, it seems a relatively small jump from heat pumps to vapor chambers. Do you know if the vapor chambers operate at reduced internal atmospheric pressure? Unless I'm missing something, in order t

Any passive phase change thermal solution is doing the same thing - take thermal energy from one place, and distribute it for dissipation. My point is that the geometric configuration isn't that important, it's doing the same work

This is a heat pipe. A technology from the 60s. Your laptop almost certainly has heat pipes in it. They usually use alcohol rather than water as the phase change material though. The (relatively) novel thing is that it's packaged small
