Does it even cost two full seconds? I put the lid down as I stand and turn to press the flush. Not only is it more sanity, but every time I drop something in the bathroom and have it bounce off the toilet lid I'm happy it's not in

No, the energy density is poor. Gravitational potential energy depends on mass and height (mass * gravitational acceleration * height = energy in joules). If your whole house went up and down 10 meters it would store just a handful of kWh,

A control system with a pole (in the control systems sense) in the right hand half of the plane will be unstable. If the system changes during operation, the pole can move around the coordinate plane.* As it goes from the left (stable) towa

SWE pay might be high, but in the same market it is 4 to 10x median earnings compared with 200 to 600x for a CEO. Even the gap between a CEO and a SWE is 6 times bigger than the gap between a SWE and a factory worker. Comparing between labo

I haven't bought a new computer for myself since I started working full time in 2012. Since then e-waste computers with a new SSD have been fine for me. I don't even need to upgrade RAM since you can usually find a few identical e

They might be cheap, but I have never seen a box fan fail, and I have a few in service for many years. Consider that they are designed for cooling in a window application, which means they must be able to survive operation 35C in direct sun
