This is true of corn but I'm not so sure on soybeans. Do you have a source on the total conversion rate for soy? According to the source below, the partial conversion rate is about 57 gallons per acre (at 39 bushels/acre). It take

Actually, no. Moore's law is really a general trend that is apples to pretty much everything, just with different constants. As our knowledge and tech advances, everything gets cheaper and easier. This is also known as "Economie

That article's only evidence is some sparks flying that look exactly the same as the welding in other mfgs videos. The link to the cheap spot welder is a bit over the top as well.

No constraints will often be faster, but your data will not be 100% consistent. Over time you _will_ have child child records pointing to non existing parents and the same with foreign keys. These often don't really hurt anything, unt

That is because you could get the 20k elsewhere or the manager wasn't worth 20k. What about 40k? 60k?

If you are working massive hours you need a massive salary to make up for it or you are not getting well compensated. If you are working 60 hours a week you better be making 50% extra (or get 50% time off at a later data) or you are NOT mak

For LithIon, there are really 3 things that are bad (That I've heard of): 1) Fully charging them 2) Fully discharging them 3) Heat These are all monitored by the battery support software/hardware but all will affect performance. T

My dermatologist actually told me to get more sun, but then I have psoriasis. I believe his exact recommendation was one beach vacation every early Feb.

Well, the difference in that case is that it isn't license violation at all. This case is a trade secret violation. Since Goldman Sachs never released the source code, it is by definition a trade secret which Sergey Aleynikov was not

Farmers often take 100% depreciation on a new purchase. So for tax purposes they lost 150k and do not have an asset worth 150k sitting around. Now if they sell the tractor they have to pay taxes on the full sale price as profit since it wa

Tractors are not cars. While they do loose value by not being "new", the ratio is MUCH smaller than for cars. They have an hour meter for a reason. This is really what people use to tell if it is new.

I wouldn't think so. Hit to kill is going to have the same but worse timing issues as a proximity hit since the size is much smaller. I would guess the real reason is that if the target is ballistic, you need to actually "kill&quo

Agreed but Arch isn't much work after the initial install. Well worth it for the rolling updates. Arch mostly just works. The big issue I run into is that the upgrades are _almost_ flawless, which bites you once a year or so when you l

Same here, but I'm afraid that might just put me in to the jerk category myself.

Getters/Setters do have a couple of reasons to exist: 1) Allowing you to validate data/morph data on your objects on set. (example: Date is not a workday) 2) Allow others to do either 1 or other actions on set/get (examples:

Here is how I handle it 1) Write a test that runs the service and saves output to a file. 2) Mock out the call to just return the data from the file and validate results. 3) If you need variations on this data just modify the file/dat

I (sadly) have production experience from within the last year. I don't use Spring by choice, but it still gets forced on me by coworkers and teammates, so I reserve the right to complain. I've heard the "you're probabl

If I remember correctly, I believe perl was created to combine the power of sed and awk into a single tool so you didn't have keep switching back and fourth between the two. Personally, I would suggest AWK for one to two liners when do

I will admit that spring has gotten a lot better recently, but it is still a mess (IMHO of course) and this "benchmark" seems to agree. The biggest issue I have with spring isn't performance but is the huge internal state tha

To be more fair, java is mostly slow on startup which which is mostly due to: 1) Swing. I have no idea what this does on startup but it is bad. This is what killed most java GUI apps. A simple AWT or SWT app will pop open while a simple s

Sure, it is a measure of energy, but it is not a measure of of how much energy we as humans will utilize from the food. Some calories are much more efferent for us to extract than others. Some can't be extracted at all.

Older versions would silently allow you to insert 75 chars in to a 50 char column. The extra was just gone. Of course without an error, nobody notices until somebody notices the missing data. This is usually an end user in production and t
