We can transport it a fair bit further than that, but only under ideal circumstances that are rarely met, and its very rare the grid is built for it, its never been needed after all. For instance, regulatory issues usually mean that every c

Power is far to abstract and far to cheap for people to make even the slightest adjustment to their habits. After all, lets say you knew that making your morning coffe between 07-08 cost 10 cents more than doing so an hour earlier or later,

It does not work that way. Long distance extreme high voltage transfer loses about 5% per 1000km, with the transformers adding another 10%, under ideal circumstances. In practice its higher, and thats on land. Sea cables lose 100x per km ar

What you are proposing is essentially using a different number basis, and the simplest applicable one would be a basis which expresses numbers using whole numbers{...,-1,0,1,2...} times pi. This allows you to exactly express pi as just 1, a

That often works, but not always, some systems generate sequences of operations which can be symbolically simplified, or equivalently could be exactly computed using reals, but which if computed using any finite precision will fail. A simpl

Sure is a complicated way to say that there are rotations somewhere in qm though. In particular once you realize that rotations are a good way to describe how a particular property is preserved under certain group operations, symmetry you m

No, a moderately successful paper has 1-10 k citations, and usually 0-1 reproductions. Extremely successful papers have 10-40 k citations and 1-3 reproductions. They largely dont matter at all. Its mostly because extraordinary claims receiv

Ah the blissful ignorance of optimists assuming people would voluntarily do the obviously right thing...

Just means she hasn't thought of the inevitable consequences. Besides, the paradox she is resolving isn't a paradox, she just does not understand the answer in standard QM.

Exactly so, its an interesting philosophical idea,but its by definition invalidates the scientific method, and all forms of meaningful reason. The correct answer to the question of if you are dreaming a dream from which you could never wak

Even the ever exaggerating pop sci article does not mention an increase in lifespan... At face value this seems more like evidence against the senescent cells theory of aging.

Its almost like microsoft utterly fails to understand why zoom dominated... Its strange how many companies believe their own lies about anything requiring an explicit account being a good idea...

Or just generally make it impossible to interfere with the calling process. There is zero need for it after all.

I wonder if this is a result of various ways microsoft software is trying to force users to login to a microsoft account. If so the problem will be systemic as the microsoft programmers will be in an ongoing battle to disable as much unrela

Pig farms in the nordics are under strict animal wellfare regulations which are enforced effectively. Pig farmers also informally experiment with everything from breeding to feed and antibiotics in order to gain every advantage. As I heard

The problem with simple innovations in old methods, is that there is very rarely anything new under the sun, odds are good its already been done. The paper does not evaluate on any of the big standard benchmark either. The paper spends a su

His arguments regarding the social consequences arent as good as they could be, but the ideas he is refuting are so stupid that I cant tell if they are strawmen or just commonly held ideas. Chomskys writing is often convincing, but his pers

gcc pedantic ignores the language flag, and clang and intel state they mirror gcc. So pedantic would be not C++11 even if you added that.

What is referred to as implementation defined behaviour is a different class, yes, obviously. I guess nasal deamons was too complicated a piece of irony for you.

yes its undefined behaviour in both C and C++. Yes, a number of compilers treat this differently, its also poorly supported on custom hardware using standard compilers like gcc. So compiling for some mobile device with slightly custom ... g

Something being very common and a very common source of portability issues isn't exactly contradictory. Its a bad idea, and it is outright being taught in modern game programming courses that its a bad idea, but common in older guides,
