What do you mean by that? Their prices are higher than most, but anyone can purchase from them.

Detecting the presence of these transmuted elements should be much easier to replicate than trying to characterize "excess" heat, right? And the next step would be to try and find out what isotope of the transmuted elements was?

Not being a mechanical engineer, I don't have an intutive feel for how the additive nature of the pressure develops as you describe. I would have thought that the outer layers would start to compress the inner layers, relaxing some of

>In high temperature superconductors, it looks like the electrons are at least partially bound by interaction with phonons. The high pressures change the speed of sound, and therefore change how easily Cooper pairs form. Interesting. Do

I was under the impression that the double slit experiment with the oil drops does not replicate the quantum mechanics expected interference pattern. http://math.mit.edu/~bush/wordpress/wp-content/uploads&#x2F

Any pointers to a comparison between Clean's uniqueness typing and GHC's linear types? And is Rust the motivating factor behind linear types cropping up lately? I see Idris is now getting them as well.

Most of the graphical 3D CAD programs include a constraints solver that work over the domain of real numbers. A quick search doesn't turn up such a python library. https://wiki.freecadweb.org/Sketcher_Workbench https

Is there a way to use openscad in a higher level manner? My ventures into it (very brief) leads me to believe it is very coordinate based. The tutorial for example: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_Tutorial&#x2F

This issue with Fusion seems like it might be a good opportunity for Solvespace to get more attention. I know I've looked at Solvespace in the past, but it has always seemed stagnant, what with the website saying the last release was

I'm sure none of this applies to any of us here, but I've heard rumors that some people need deadlines to complete tasks. As in you set a deadline, and it doesn't really matter when, and check up with the employee on a reg

Is there an idiomatic phrase for the opposite of "damning with faint praise"? Praising through faint damnation? Maybe the "exception that proves the rule"?
