R2 is still pretty new. I don't know how well it works in practice in terms of performance and availability. And of course durability, which is difficult if not impossible to judge. S3 has a much longer history and track record, so it

I don't find this particularly impressive as well. Anything except a pod machine would likely present the robot with tasks it can't handle like e.g. handling actual beans or ground coffee and filling water. And most household task

That hydroxychloroquine became that widely used was a big policy failure. The initial data was bad, maybe even fraudulent. And that was certainly noted by experts at the time. Doing some larger follow-up studies would have been sensible, an

In Germany as a tenant it is usually your duty to ventilate properly. If you do not do that and this results in mold you as a tenant are responsible, not the landlord. This is of course much more complex in practice, as mold is often not ca

Compared to what? Permanently venting air is a much bigger waste of energy. Most of the heat is in the walls, not the air anyway.

There are some things that simply don't fit into the REST structure, the most common one for me is bulk operations. Operating on multiple instances of a specific resource is a common thing, and you need a non-REST endpoint to do it pro

Large metal objects can cause a quench. Smaller and medium-sized ones usually won't, they will just stick to the magnet until you release them.

I don't think any similar magnet exists that doesn't embed the magnet in a dewar full of liquid helium. And it probably doesn't make any sense to do it differently, even if it were possible. You need some mass here for the he

You should respect the magnet though. Those warnings aren't there without reason, getting between an MRI or NMR and a magnetic piece of metal is a bad idea

This is about quenching, which happens in emergencies or failure. During regular use helium is recycled in similar systems often today. But it's simply not feasible to do that when all the liquid helium in there evaporates at once

No Tesla has LIDAR. And many new ones even had some radar sensors removed and their function "replaced" by the cameras. Certain types of trucks are probably very dangerous to pedestrians because they have very high grills. But tha

Regarding the lack of crumple zones, what regulations on passenger safety exist in the US that would apply to the Cybertruck? My understanding is that because it's classified as a light truck that not all rules apply to it. But if ther

A lot of lab stuff is single-use plastic. But that is more on the bio side, that wouldn't work for chemistry. And there the glass is simply too expensive, so you have to reuse it. It's also not just flasks but also coolers and e.g

So where are the test results for the Cybertruck? Most modern cars are built in somewhat similar ways, Cybertruck is a huge outlier in construction. So I think it is very reasonable to ask whether that affects the safety of the vehicle.

I'm really curious how the results of crash tests will turn out here. Crumple zones are a really important safety feature, and I can't imagine the Cybertruck will fare well without them.

The part that makes this even more dangerous than this description might indicate is that it appears to be somewhat random. So most of the time entering a value as e.g. ".5" would work, but sometimes it would not. This is probably

I wonder how much potential there is to make them a lot more reliable and easier to use. Other kinds of instruments in the lab have gotten much more reliable and much easier to use over time, though this is not a particularly quick process.
