There is o evidence the typical EV will need a battery replacement within its useful life. The Leaf is the only EV with that problem, everyone else so far seems to be doing well as a battery is a lifetime part. Only time will tell, but that

Most of the parts should fit through a normal door. It is common to build an airplane in your house for years, and then for the last 2 years rent a hanger for final assembly. (Most people don't get to the point of final assembly, but

Only the 80% number was given. If he has been going to the gym for 30 years and had 5 injures at the gym, one outside that would be incredibly low for a total, and that level of carelessness at the gym is lower than I'd expect. If hi

This study followed everyone for 6 months so they probably got past that factor.

The only problem with time off is it breaks habits. a couple days off and suddenly you haven't done anything for months.

People who exercise regularly have a lower resting heart rate. You can likely remove 10,000 heartbeats per day just by doing 20 minutes of exerciser per day. I don't believe the limited heartbeats theory, but it does support the idea

They measured body composition. Is that your goal? Remember this is for 70 year olds (and a small sample size), even if you got to the ideal 70 year old body, you won't look that good naked - which is all body composition is directly

Most people who talk about adding milage to a car have never tried to keep an old car running. Those who do have long learned that milage is a tiny issue, age is a much larger factor. They have also learned that low milage is a bad sign -

Google and Apple's odds of being caught are too high to expect they would risk it. They have more to lose if caught than they have to gain. Obviously some companies do despite the risks, I wouldn't expect this of any individual co

OOP isn't why they are used. OOP may enable injection more than others, but it is not encouraged. Bad programmers and bad architects is why it is overused not OOP. Keep the blame in the right place.

How into this will you get? If you just want to make your own a small telescope is easiest (see the other reply). As things get large expenses go up. Commercial lens are cheap for smaller telescopes, but as you get to large that becomes

You will not live enough to learn everything. Eventually you have to say "I could figure [something] out but I won't take that time." Most things are that way - I probably could learn brain surgery (I used this example beca

Productive workers in society need to learn new things all the time. I can't think of any career that hasn't changed in my life. I recall a garbage man (sexism probably wasn't required even then, but I never recall females)

Maybe. I said elsewhere "see a lawyer, be prepared to pay them millions to recover thousands".

Your typical helloWorld.c is several hundred thousand lines of code - most of that is things like "#include <stdio.h>" which gcc has to parse the whole thing even though wc only shows the program is less than 10 lines. We ca

Those limits exist too, but even if the law doesn't give limits, ethics does.

It also protects readers who may encounter the second years latter and not realize it is the same data and thus they think it is a second study reenforcing something. If they are experts in the field they likely know, but if this is a case

I doubt this was a DMCA notice at all. Google has a not DMCA process that is easier to submit to.

Claimants put something at stake: false DMCA takedowns are under prejury laws which carry prison sentences. I doubt this is really a DMCA case though. DMCA laws exist, but to invoke them requires some specific steps which Google prefers yo

Was this really DMCA? The article implies it is, but I don't see any evidence (maybe I missed it). There is discussion of what the DMCA says, and Google took the article down. However it is generally understood that DMCA rarely is u

For C: I'm not sure how EU laws work, but ethics says that someone who needs a job cannot give consent since the possibility of a job if they give consent could be a bribe. See a lawyer for how it works in your country.

When kids reach late teens I'll buy that. However, let's be very cautious about separating kids too early. Kids do mature at different rates and some will realize that they need to study sooner while others smart kids decide to sl

Eventually, though, we do need to say that we need to specialize. To become a great musician, you need to spend hours and hours practicing every day. There isn't time to also be a great physicist if you're going to be a great math

While there is a point that on balance I have to disagree, there are a lot of things I want students to achieve that are just hard and they won't be motivated to. I want every student to have a good education in math, even though it is
