Most cops are polite to white middle and upper class people. Most black and some poor white people have very different experiences from cops.

The emphasis of the question should be on “exactly one”. How does using fields instead of particles resolve the question of the collapse of the wave function?

by Ma8ee 6y ago
Ok, so skip the particles. Why does exactly one detector click?

I think many people read the title as “How to befriend people to influence them.”

And considering solar power, there’s no shortage of available space. There’s plenty of roofs to cover with panels. Or line the sides of, say, Interstate 5 with a wall of vertical panels that also helps keep wild animals from the road and re

There are probably not one general solution that will work everywhere. But for example in Sweden where about half of the electricity already is from hydropower, it will work well to even out seasonal variations, from for example getting ver

I think we’ll start using more ways to store the energy. In the scenarios you describe, when the energy price fluctuate so wildly, the processes don’t have to be efficient. There’s not really a problem if 70% is lost in the process if the e

The difference is that the sale also depend in the customer. It’s like firing the programmer because a failed integration when he never got any docs or anyone answered any questions about the remote system.

The first definition of natural returned when I google the word is > existing in or derived from nature; not made or caused by humankind. So when you are trying to say that what is caused by humans is natural too, then you are clearly co

This is actually the only way that COVID has affected me negatively. We bought a house close to my parents so they could help with the kids, but now they have been self isolating since March.

I’m quite certain that is strongly dependent on the ambient temperature.

I didn’t suggest that you shouldn’t sleep enough, just that our feelings about how much we need to sleep might not be reliable, in either direction. Maybe we would benefit from sleeping even more than we do because we rarely are physically

by Ma8ee 6y ago
Yes, sleep was always essential, but we didn’t have artificial lights and didn’t spend most of our days sitting on our asses. Both are things that probably disturb our natural sleep clues.

Ah yes, that is an important part. I certainly often fell into the trap of looking at the material, feeling it was comfortingly familiar and thus believed that I knew it. And then of course struggled to recall it when I needed it.

And most importantly, why you should study and manage your time in certain ways. A lot of things in that course feels like it fairly obvious when you hear it, but often you might not have thought in those directions, and often it helps to g

I’m not certain about the conditions in the rest of Europe, but at least in Sweden it is rare nowadays to use fossil fuels for heating. Most use electricity, often in combination with a heat pump of some kind, or district heating that is mo

So what is not natural according to you?

This is a corollary to that code should be written foremost to be understood by humans, and only secondary by computers. It’s not only true for interfaces.

Teslas are too expensive, and the other car manufacturers are behind on getting a full range of models out. I expect that to change the next two years or so.

I was surprised when I recently learned that the big concert pianos that are used in the music halls usually lasts less than a decade. But of course, they are played constantly. I assume a home piano that in best case gets played an hour a

I’d say it’s not possible. The action of the keys and exactly how the hammers hit and are released from the strings are integral to the sound.

How about a very slow and gradual transition? Say so that in one or two hundred years we have reached the optimal size by reducing the standard every decade just by a little.

While I agree with you, I’m afraid that say a blacksmith could have made very similar arguments in the beginning of the industrialisation. At that time he was a skilled independent worker. His work conditions eventually became much worse, b

In Europe where the fuel is properly taxed for it CO2 emissions, the lifetime mile cost of an electric car is already lower than corresponding gasoline car.

Your belief that older people won't buy electric is completely baseless and untrue. I'm almost fifty and looking for buying an electric car. My parents just bought a plug in hybrid, but would have bought a fully electric if any su

And the incentives are there. Electric cars are quiet, clean, and much cheaper to drive and to maintain.

Why do you think they does? I’m so tired of always hearing the deflection: “oh lock at China, they are much worse”. No, they aren’t. Their per capita emissions are still much lower than Europe and North America. I wish they did more, but th
