The point is that Russia is the largest country by land area, composed of a great many regions and ethnicities, and yet all the language-speakers have vanished. This didn't happen by accident. It is the result of a program of systemati

See if there's a local makerspace in your town. It might not be your exact thing, but you're likely to meet people who know about everything going on in the area.

In talks, Mudge has referenced participation in various Pentagon projects that would definitely require a nontrivial clearance.

You can tell this is garbage because they sensationalize the headline by making it about Twitter, but only once you read halfway through the actual article they're actually talking about making public-domain ADS-B data available on the

Mudge held a significant position within the Department of Defense. That doesn't happen without having any skeletons in your closet identified and investigated.

In "on" mode, FETs appear as a small resistance R_ds_on, but BJTs act like a mostly-constant voltage drop V_ce_sat. So for any BJT and FET we compare, passing a current less than V_ce_sat/R_ds_on is more efficient on the FET,

Most gamers are on mobile, so a proper app store app with a home screen icon will be more discoverable and easier for users to come back to. Also, you can add support for notifications, and for the developer there are more options for monet

BJT's are also still used for some very high-power applications because they can be more efficient at very high currents. In fact, they invented a new part that has the "input" gate of an FET and the Collector-Emitter "o

Unfortunately, a 'field' doesn't require electrons or holes, or provide a way to explain conduction.

Say an NPN BJT is in conduction mode with: Vbe = 0.7v, Ib = 1 mA, and Ic = 10 mA. In practice, Vce might be 0.2v or so, depending on the transistor. How can Vce < Vbe, when C-B-E essentially form a series circuit? I liked this video, but

It's a bad study and I'd be willing to tell the researchers that to their face. "Something else is going on" is not "conspiratorial thinking" when it comes to analyzing data. Systematic biases in data is the no

No. Some of us do, in fact, seek the truth and attempt to face it. You are being dismissed out-of-hand because you make extraordinary, non-falsifiable claims ("None of what's happening is a mistake") without bothering to pres
