Have you ever tried buying a train ticket at one of the vending machines of the „Deutsche Bahn“ while in a hurry to catch your train? https://youtu.be/TIz6rwIsVHo

Oh, yes. Every substance carrying a „peroxo“ in its name is usually nasty stuff. Concentrated hydrogenperoxide for example can explode creating gaseous water (aka steam) and dioxygen (aka oxygen) in the process. While O2 is a corrosive, it

The fundamental reason why 2,4-Dinitrophenol (DNP) burns fat is surprisingly complicated. Basically, it intoxicates mitochondria in your cells being their power houses. These organelles create ATP, a universal metabolic energy carrier, by m

Nitrogen-Nitrogen bonds inside larger molecules are never quite stable because 1) nitrogen “wants” to form stable di-nitrogen (N2) molecules containing a very stable triple bond (an exothermic reaction) and 2) the result of such decompositi

Maybe then writing and submitting a CVE should cost some money that’s payed back together with the reward if the vulnerability is found to be „reasonable“ upon review?

BTW: The joysticks in the JoyCons that seem to wear out quickly are at least very easy to fix yourself as the electronic switches are just screwed on and not soldered. I bought replacement sticks (including the electronic switch component)

No, it’s more like calling „setTimeout(…,0)“ to allow for the JS runtime to process the event loop before you return to your CPU intensive math.

I am a little surprised because I am actually quite fond of Acer’s laptops. That’s because I repaired two of them and I was delighted how easy they were to work with and how cheap the repairs were. On the last one (a 2016 Acer Aspire E5) I

Thanks, this is a well written and accessible article! To other commenters: Of course, there wouldn’t be a straight line but rather the curve would flatten out the longer the random sampling would take place. This is due to the fact that it

The thing with these "all time high records" is they have an intrinsic trend to the upside. Consider the following thought experiment: Draw a continuous random number between 0 and 100 and compare it with the previous result. If t

Many traders still predict Bitcoin to be over 100k by the end of the year. December could align with the bubble peak due to Bitcoin‘s investment cycle triggered by the halving events. That could wreck his short position but if he’s lucky, i

> The smarts have been taken out on purpose. Yes. Where dumb contracts make sense, they make many financial services much cheaper. But investing your life savings somewhere will probably forever demand counselling by a human being.

But there is a price to pay for the responsibility you burden off onto the bank. Banks charge fees, pay almost zero interest (at least currently) and are usually very unpleasant to deal with when you want to borrow money. I’d say it depends

I think the word „smart contract“ does not actually describe them very good. Of course, a piece of software can not replace a legal contract, really, because software is stupid and inflexible. Think of smart contracts rather as vending mach

Bitcoin mining does not use graphics cards. Currently, they're too slow to make this process profitable. It's ASICs that do all the Bitcoin mining.

Bitcoin critics would mention the 51% attack vulnerability and point to the concentration of miners in China. Now that the Chinese mining concentration resolves, it is called bad news for Bitcoin because the hash rate will fall in the short

At least that’s lower than in many European countries. In case of the income tax at least.

Prison time here in Germany is limited to 15 years at max — independent on the number of crimes. People imprisoned for violent crimes may stay there for their whole life if they pose an ongoing threat to public safety.

It’s 5 years. The 10 years are an amendment in cases of organized crime or public servants misusing their power. This exception exists to lock up criminals if no other charges can be proven. https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de&#x
