The muslim ban is probably as effective as the internment of the Japanese during WWII ordered by Roosevelt. Which under Carter have been proven totally illegitimate and useless. Well, segregation in the USA based on religion (Feynman barred

Europe is actually looking like a drug dealer. They give to countries like Poland "free" funds that are not required, and when you say you want to leave, they brag that your dose worthed a lot more. Being french, but seeing french

Actual university education. When public it transforms in debt (Europa) else private in student loans (USA). The debt of the countries are growing up. The quality of research papers is a measure of quality of the teaching that is decreasing

The same way a university is what a faculty becomes when it loses interest in its student, a brand is what an open source project becomes when it loses interests in its community.

These technologies are existing since 115 years (heat pump) and have been mass produced in the 1950. The article is unwillingly misleading. It is not new technology per se, it is an improvement on a very old technology that is as simple as

if you do 68000 ASM INT/TRAP handling, it is better to let the interrupt/signal do the cleaning restoring. But I won't restart a war that has ended the day x86 architecture won over 68K.
