Given the ridiculously uncertain nature of war it seems reasonable to expect that we take responsibility for the unintended consequences of our actions. Our good intentions at the start are irrelevant. War introduces a lot of entropy int

It must be so difficult to do command and control in a situation like that. So many different agencies with diffetent expertise and patchy data. Maybe large buildings should have cameras pointed at them with IR modes. Feed it to a nationa

I guess most people think that they are doing the right thing. But organisational politics and human weakness can just mangle that into something that is actively counte productive. Do you think that is the case here? Or is there a deepe

Group's can succeed because they are communal. The survivalist idea of an isolated compound does not work. Because the larger group of people who can work together will out man you. The best survival strategy is to make friends wi

I think these units are used because it gives a more favourable comparison to existing turbines. It demonstrates that a developer could make more money. Nameplate capacity alone is probably not comparable when the power curve is so differ

I think people have vastly different work situations and that helps drive the divide. "Woke" ideas are just not that intimidating if you trust your boss and have a sensible employer. Other places it could seem much more of a thr

I think most carbon in plants comes from CO2 in the air.

Worker male wasps in social colonies are more closely related to each other than in other species (like humans). They develop from unfertalized eggs so inherit more of the same genes (75%). This may have lead to more alturistic behaviour

Government's ignore activists all the time. Not sure why it was apparently so effective in the case of nuclear power.

Also. They can create flickering sun which is unpleasant and unhealthy. During cold weather they can shed ice. And they might fall over or catch fire and hurt someone. A safety zone is an easy way to eliminate any danger to the publ

It's actually common for sheep to be grazed under solar and it helps keep the grass trimmer. Or the grassland can be managed for wildlife and polinators. My guess is that solar sites will be managed to improve soil quality. And event

Except people do care and are looking for solutions. Just Google turbine blade recycling to see. Also, storing some inert waste seems pretty mild as an environmental issue.

It's never that predictable. A defective flickering florescent tube would be a closer approximation.

I guess you would need to specify how the satellite transmits as well as how the user equipment works. Maybe limits on beam size and transmit power?

Just because something is unanswerable does not mean that your can't make good predictions. I am not 100% sure that there isn't a tiger under my bed. But I am sure enough. I can be 99.9% sure that God doesn't exist and that

How does it cope with turbulence and wind sheer compared to an aeroplane?

But that is not what happened. Not everyone has had the jab. And those that were vaccinated did not all receive the same vaccine. Anyway none of your comments actually address the science involved. A few factoids without any context is n

Surely the point of a placebo in this case was to measure effectiveness rather than detect long term side effects. There are other methods of establishing a control such as comparing to the general population.

Yeah the biggest problem is human cooperation. We will put feet on mars before we ever come close to solving that. And curiously space exploration is something that does seem to be able to inspire people to work together. Lack of coopera

Maybe have a format based on postgres types? They are fairly comprehensive, well defined and already have a text representation.

There is so much pent up demand for transport in the UK that it completely distorts things. You can have a system that is overcrowded, profit making, expensive for users, and underfunded all at the same time. The economic pulls that could

False dichotomy. You are choosing between no vaccine, vaccine a, or vaccine b. When really the choice is between Corona virus and whatever vaccine is available. And Corona virus has bad proven effects. Life limiting effects that can pe

I think offset based file access could be really powerful just based on what people are achieving in the browser with things like Flat buffers, proto buffers and even http range queries.

Don't know how many. But I have a few times where we used external APIs that could conceivably set a cookie.

Surely the economic impact is mainly in providing thousands of jobs in the health industry. We may be able to afford less in others areas.

Why though? Naively it would be possible to bundle postgres and have your app connect on localhost. What would be wrong with doing that?

Surely the whole point of a strain relief is to prevent those kind of angles. Which other cables seem to do more effectively.

Maybe a rope is more like the wings of a plane than a discrete component. You could have two sets of wings. But is that really a good idea? And climbing is not expected to be 100% safe. In the same way that the single engine in a GA pla

And you get one more place for people to get out of sync. One more excuse for why engineers don't need to understand their own fundamental tools.

I wonder if something like this could be used to continue support for internet explorer where you really have to
