There are about 2.44*10^11 grams of gold in circulation. Let's say the LHC would need to produce 10% of that per year to "flood the market." With the current production rate of 10^-11 grams per year, we'd need 2.44*10^21

If they can keep up this gold generation every year, you'll only need to pay 4.999999997 euros! (assuming all the proceeds specifically go towards your contribution)

I have a very old blog post [1] that's basically a build log of the first thermostat I built (plus some rambling). It has a link to the firmware repo and a follow-up post about the API design near the end if you just want to skip to th

If you have any familiarity with basic electronics at all, I strongly recommend building your own thermostat. It's very easy to connect a few relays and a temperature sensor to an off-the-shelf microcontroller. Give it any interface yo

Unblinded, tiny sample size (n=10), and a ridiculous attempt to trademark a pure 100Hz tone. I'm gonna wait for a much better study reproducing this before I put any stock in it, personally.

For the same reason, nearly every consumer thermostat will just lie about the measured ambient temperature (often by more than a whole degree F).

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but it sounds like your problems with your VPS and VPN come from having someone else hosting those services for you and restricting how you can use them instead of just doing them yourself. Things are in

I wish authors would actually test their performance claims before publishing them. I quickly benchmarked the two code snippets: arr.slice(10, 20).filter(el => el < 10).map(el => el + 5) and arr.values().drop(10).take

I think it's less likely to be technical chicanery (special bluetooth beacons, wifi SSID scanning, etc) and more likely that your airline just partners with Lyft and directly hands them passenger information.
