But no analysis is needed. You say, A and B don't exist. I say, here it is! That you don't get that just are proved wrong won't any analysis in the world help with. And no, there's no point in engaging. I've learned

That is why I use hand tools. For most one of items, it’s not slower. And I’m actually shaping and joining wood instead of spending most time adjusting machines. I’ve got enough of that in my day job.

The spread is quite wide. I got my first kid at 45 and now almost 50 working 75% to take care of two kids the rest of the time. The flip side is that I have never been so focused during working hours as now. I’m getting quite much more don

I wouldn’t expect a job at Netflix or Apple to be much more exciting than most other jobs. I thought they were attractive workplaces because of pay, perks, and because it looks good on your CV.

I don’t think our responses to COVID was only disaster. Big parts of them was disorganised and inconsistent. But in the whole they were also forceful, creating not only one, but several effective vaccines in a fraction of the time it usuall

There’s nothing forcing you to use any electric appliances, with the possible exception the stove if you to make warm food and don’t have access to a wood stove. Try a week washing the dishes by hand, doing your laundry in the sink or in th

I very much agree with you. I grew up without microwave oven or dishwasher. Neither of those are essential in any way, but claiming that those don’t provide great time savers for parents (single or not) with small children would be ridiculo

No, a stack of pennies would manifest a greater force, but the pressure would be the same. Pressure is force per area, which means that the increased weight from a wider column is exactly cancelled by the increased area that the force is di

The force would scale with the area, since pressure is force per area. Not the other way around.

I didn't know, so your comment prompted me to do some reading. Apparently diesel-electric is what has been in use more or less from the start. It's too hard to make clutches usable for trains.

It’s part of your job to explain that to them. And you have to do it in business terms, that is, how it will impact budget and schedule for the project. And prepare for questions like “ok, you have convinced me that Kotlin is superior to Ja
