You could test this by comparing people who wet shave daily with those who don't. Lathering on the skin during wet shaving delivers an incidental massage.

Agree, in that if the cheapest way to do process is automated and the capital cost of the automation is reasonable there is no advantage to offshoring that process. An example is pick and place assembly of circuit boards. For large quantit

When lightning strikes, the phone network and power network are often driven to different electric potentials, meaning a current will flow between them. When that happens equipment that is connected to both the phone line and the power wil

I used to have a home network, until lightning hit nearby. It came up the power connection and the copper phone connection. The modem/router/switch fried, then it spread out though the twisted pair Ethernet and fried every interf

Even that's optimistic. I'd say "its best guess as the truth" should read "its best guess at what you will accept as the truth". It will be entirely about what sucks in the individual.

Being a tradeoff it works both ways. Customers get broken add-ons for free if it's cheaper to not pursue the customers that fix them.

Maybe it could be combined with pumped hydro? Pump the water to a higher elevation during daylight hours, then use the pressure of the elevated water to drive osmosis based desalination around the clock. You would have to build a reservio

What's the noise margin like? QR codes with logo's typically contain bit errors and rely on the forward error correction code to correct those errors. The logo comes at the cost of some noise margin. I'd guess that that the

If doing signal processing, an optimisation is to use an N-bit integer to represent the range 0 to 2.pi. Some example points in the mapping: 0->0, 2^(N-2)->pi/2, 2^(N-1)->pi, 2^N(wraps to 0)->2.pi(wraps to 0). If your look
