To me it looks more like the difference between driving with a working brake or without.

My favourite use of units is still the „2mm Scale Association“, a British model railroad club that builds their trains at a scale or two millimeteres to the foot (which is slightly larger than the standard N-track). It always blows my mind

I think what they are trying to say is that almost everything that happens in everyday experience is the result of the residual electromagnetic interactions between the outer electrons of the electrically neutral atoms that make up the worl

But there is tax limit on flat reimbursements that is considerably lower than the actual cost in almost all cases (think €20 for a night in a hotel). Following your advice is actually a criminal offence (tax evasion).

How would a more efficient heat exchanger reduce the resulting temperatures of the river water used to dumps the heat? A river full of dead fish is even worse PR than long term radiation danger.

There is Ludwig by ChessBase, which fits the AI requirement. You will have to find a way to come up with the primary melodies, though: http://www.write-music.com/

Well, she explicitly says that the question of split infinitives leaves her „nonplussed“, which I read as a deliberate play.

Of course the author is playing with the very things she criticises, and other people’s linguistic peeves. Just look at how she ends the article on a split infinitive.

Brontosaurus has always either been a genus or a younger sysnonym. The most prominent species of that genus has always been Brontosaurus excelsus, apart from the few years up to 2014, when it was Apatosaurus excelsus,

Not really. I suspect they are referring to the original x87 FP functions with their odd 80 bit FP stack and operations, where the exact result depends on when intermediate results are written to RAM and when they are kept in the FP stack,

The level of the Black Sea is determined by the water flowing in from the Mediterranean through the Dardanelles and the Bosporus which replaces the evaporated water. A few rivers do not make much of a difference.

As an implementation of Do Not Disturb , that sounds like the expected and correct behaviour. It is only lacking if you want to (ab)use DND as a technical solution to the social problem that there is no adequate legal protection against sp

No, that quite clearly states that they treat high CPU loads as suspect on accounts without an established good payment history or if it significantly deviates from previous usage patterns.

It doesn't seem correct to you because they might have been trying to be sarcastic. Using two sensors would admit that they might disagree, and that there might be situations where the MCAS could not work. But there cannot be a situati

Though it is a bit disappointing that a purported science journalism outlet contributed to the OPs confusion by calling the minerals and the elements both „minerals“ by e.g. claiming that the minerals are formed in supernovas.

Yes, that is why djb‘s post quantum RSA proposal uses public key sizes on the order of one terabyte (i.e. 8 trillion bits) instead of the more common 4096 bits. I have the slight suspicion that the proposal is slightly tounge in cheek, thou

That is for perfect mathematical qbits. Real qbits are always noisy, and you need at least 1500 real qbits to emulate a perfect qbit with reasonable certainty, putting your number in the same ballpark as the number of 20M noisy qbits from t

The lens is suspended by a ring of fibres about 1-2μm thick from the ciliar muscle. Getting accommodation to work with a synthetic lens would require a substitute suspension mechanism to attach the lens to the muscle. And it would probably

A more damning quote seems to be Another recent probe found galaxies inconsistent with the theory of dark matter, which posits this hypothetical substance to be everywhere. There is no reference given, but I have the suspicion that it ref

The name “Evelyn“, the image and the repeated references to the girl scouts may make your use of the pronoun „he“ suspect.

You are arguing that the memristor is an interesting active device like a transistor (which it may be, and which isn't addressed by the article). What the article argues against is the claim that is a the long missing last fundamental
