"Wovon man nicht sprechen kann, darüber muss man schweigen." For a Finnish speaker, the pronunciation of most languages seems illogical, because things are pronounced differently as they are written, depending on the word itself.

Is it really so? They are not the only one, nor were they the first either, really. Yes, in some areas they were first on the market. Many of the major ("old, boring") car manufacturers are growing on the EV segment and will overt

European news sites work fine without problems for Europeans. What does one in Europe gain with reading, say, American news sites which have a mostly local (e.g. American West Coast) focus? Sure, one may find more entertaining news in a way

Not only that, but within a one hour drive are Västerås and Uppsala, big cities in Sweden's scale. The former hosts ABB and has tons of robotics related research, the latter has one of the major universities. The startup scene is small

But... what you wrote means exactly the same thing, with way more words. The code was obviously bad enough to not get accepted and should be fixed. What is so bad in saying it like it is instead of dressing things up with layers of words? E

I'm reaching, but since family units stuck together to hunt and for protection, and children were likely near their parents when death came, so perhaps it is a mechanism to avoid potentially destroying/harming (directly or indirec

The Wikipedia page for HIIT is quite informative. More than 10 years ago I did HIIT for running. After warm up (20 km walk to the running path) I started with walking 2-3 minutes and then running as fast as I could for 30 seconds. The first

They modify things to bypass the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) protection of overwriting the RAM when the power comes back, they also enable external booting, and: "Cold boot attacks can then be carried out by booting a special program

Looked at the web version. Wow, it was nicely and clearly written. Clear, simple, and most importantly to the point. Can someone please recommend more books like this? (The subject matter does not matter much, it is a joy to read such books

Frankly, I don't know which ones produce the best movies in general as this is somewhat subjective. There are gems from all countries and often there is a co-operation between countries. However, since I especially like Swedish crime d

A tingling feeling similar to my experience of AMSR (based on the whispering Youtube videos) happens when I inhale sharply and focus on the back of my head. Doing so also tilts my head back everso slightly. If I concentrate more, I need not

I am not really skilled in physics and have never understood why time would be a tangible dimension like, say, width or height, instead of a mathematical construction to argue about change. I get it that it is convenient to talk of change i

This somehow reminded me of game The Long Dark, although as a "happier" version. It is hard to pinpoint exactly what it is. Probably the feeling of isolation, the mountains always looming in the background, or the wild nature, the

From what I remember reading, the problem points are really the Arctic and the Antarctic. If they melt, hello Waterworld. For example, the ice cover in Greenland is melting at a record rate. If it goes completely, this alone would raise the

Slightly off-topic and maybe this is just the way especially physics-related press releases and layman articles are written, but they tend to often have a part with "now that we have finally proven this, imagine what new research/

I think it is not about your attention span degrading. It is a matter of adaptation to too many things competing for our attention, and the desire to consume all this information. (It is an interesting question as such as to actually why on

But but but... every day, many people use implementations written in C to reliably store data. Just look at, say, Linux. The drivers, filesystems and networking stack are all written in C (and maybe some assembler). And once the data reache

In my experience it is true; of course some areas may require more detail and attention and tweaking and summoning the Evil Red Text in LyX. In your case, it seems you are not really writing the text... You are making cosmetic adjustments.

At 65 USD I thought it was interesting, checked it, but... the Remee does not actually detect REM cycles. It flashes the lights at a predetermined time. There are devices which detect REM, then flash, but the Remee is not one of them. Do yo

Give LyX ( https://www.lyx.org/ ) a try. It has a TeX/LaTeX backend and a handy UI. Check a tutorial for the basic workflow and you are all set. Many people have used it and still use it for their books, theses and such.

Such "asymmetric warfare" can be very effective: if defending costs much more than mounting an effective attack, then an underdog attacker can keep on bleeding the better-resourced defender or even eventually force the defender to
