Radio systems have an antenna that radiate energy into the atmosphere. Other antennas resonate in harmony. What if you just connect the antenna wires of all the devices together? That's what a single wire protocol does.

Perhaps: The red light camera is taking video footage with a trusted and calibrated time stamp. If you see an object appear in frame in both the red light camera and another camera, you can use this moment to establish a timestamp for the o

Sounds like a great explanation for the spread of very polarized political opinions in social media. Everyone thinks their niche opinion has obtained majority support.

It's OK! No matter what possible specialty you pick, there is probably someone better at it than you. But only you have the exact mix that makes you... you. Just focus on what brings you joy, and appreciate the skills you do have today

Yep! That's the one. There is also a theory that a portion of the burnt out cars you see are actually set on fire by tear gas canisters. Those canisters contain a combustable charge which creates the aerosol (from a solid compound). Si

Even if you do not die, you might have a very unpleasant experience with lasting consequences. Perhaps a better way to frame it would be - 2% (?) of patients have serious life-changing consequences. Those under 49 tend to survive them.

I think you're actually seeing Falcon flights have become more routine - it's moved from innovation to operation. So Elon is less hands-on, focusing instead on the innovation around starship (and Tesla).

You make a lot of good points, but it's not quite as grim as the picture you have drawn. NASA had a great deal of knowledge from previous projects which they shared liberally with SpaceX from very early on in their development. Engines

People are not showing up in the ER unable to breathe because they know someone who holds their Cellphone to their ear. Covid-19 is not a theoretical threat.

Bear in mind in relation to immunity -- "Positive results may be due to past or present infection with non-SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus strains, such as coronavirus HKU1, NL63, OC43, or 229E."

Possibly because you forgot to reduce the R factor. If you infect people over 1/2 the time, perhaps you need R to be 1/2 what it was before. I assume that the model is spreading the people you infect across the time you are infect

If they offered you a good counter offer, ask them if there is a similar offer still on the table. Their IT challenges are probably only just ramping up and they will need you as people shift remote. I'm also in NZ. SO happy that our G

Many tech jobs start with a 3 month "fire at will" period. They might just give the OP one day and then fire. I hope it works out though.

It was indeed agonising at the start, but they had a very clear answer by the end. The CDC makes reagents that are required. But the full test requires taking swabs, going to a lab, going through various steps. It's not self contained

Your shed example is not the same as the Uber example. As described by the court, the driver is not told in advance where the customer is going. They are told exactly how to drive there, and the rate is decided by Uber. It would be the same

There is a lot of evidence that the albedo is going to reduce. For one the satellites are climbing higher at the moment. The solar panels are also oriented to catch the light currently as the sun sets. It might not be as bad as you are worr
