For one month now I have mobile data turned off on my phone. I have started reading much more on the subway since the main distraction is gone, and there are surprisingly few drawbacks. Of course, YMMV. What started as a one week experiment

While Gordon can win the 100m race, he would have to get a new strategy for the 200m and higher though, since the course for that race will be curved and any jumps longer than a few meters would cause him to move or cut in and out of the ne

To add another personal experience to that: I can do that as well, and for me it will make my tinnitus louder. It is very low pitched but more or less stable around 340Hz, and thus actually musically relevant to me as it gives me some kind

The statement "at least one of them is a boy" (<=> "I don't have two daughters") is a little more subtle than "I tell you the gender of one of them" since the former excludes one out of four possibil

I'm also a layperson, but to my understanding when order within the electrocaloric material is allowed to reduce it means that the material can now absorb unorder from the environment, i. e. heat. Things that absorb heat are called &qu

A problem (for the criminal org) might be that if an employee is willing to follow the customization steps for the ransomware and deploy it in order to receive a share of the ransom, it might not be much more difficult or illegal for the em

Maybe the right approach (feature creep beware) would be to bundle this lite web standard tightly with a pay per view API or some other monetary distribution scheme for web content. Each of the two standards might not receive enough attenti

I learned that the proper way to type is with your hands floating above the keyboard, and resting your hands on a wrist rest when not typing. I don't always do it, but when I do, the height of the keyboard relative to the table becomes

you expect to wait 2x the average. Actually, this is also slightly incorrect, conflating "expected wait time until next block" with "average current block duration". These are two different expectancies: You alwa

How big of an influence towards not eating cheap chicken anymore should the overuse of antibiotics be in your ethical framework? Relating to "buying fair-trade coffee for the plantation worker's sake", "not driving (comb
