Being a precise base ten integer suggests it is human derived. 982.000 MHz is the second harmonic of 491.000 MHz, which is the center of Channel 17, UHF Television. It is probably the local oscillator of a broadcast TV tower. Harmonics can

Simply replacing gas stations with chargers is a step back in electric's flexiblity. They don't need large underground storage tanks and special zoning. I think gas stations will simply vanish, and chargers will stay next to usefu

That's a key distinction, "the road" is an ambiguity that these car companies love to deploy.

I think you have to look at the joint distribution with Alaska included to draw any conclusions. Just looking at separate marginals will be uninformative.

I'd argue negative correlation on conditionals distributions can be reasonable here. In that particular WA-MS example, if Trump suddenly took more liberal positions and somehow won WA (e.g., announces he's pro abortion), he would

That's a very interesting observation about what you're looking for in a car. The laggy slow acceleration of a Prius--while smooth--really bothers me, but I could imagine some seeing it as a plus. For me, in a Prius I feel unabl

If you actually try driving one you may find it's not just for the show. They are a step function in responsiveness and almost a zen like driving experience. Behaviourally the diametric opposite of a Prius. It's very very hard to

> Why though would bordeebook want to make sure theirs is always more expensive? This would seem to guarantee they would get no sales. But maybe this isn’t right – they have a huge volume of positive feedback – far more than most others.

OK my getting downvoted shouldn't be a surprise. But it sure seems suspicious that the author introducing the bug made commits that end with this bug - and then silence. https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=search;

Like any interview, all it takes is a little dip into technical details to separate a Nikola from a Tesla. One focused on the physics and another on the facade. The leadship also sets the template for who works there. An LDS member with no

Does this mean there is only one fuel line feeding up to the prop, not two that would get twisted by rotation?

Yes reducing mass would be a good general approach.

It's an interesting question but the precise straighteness of roads would more likely be derived from local ground surveying (e.g., optical) which places the markers from which construction commences. The maps then eventually record wh

I'm sure SpaceX would be happy to launch your ground-based telescope just above their constellation for a nominal fee.

Do the satellites impact more than a single pixel at a time for a brief moment? Can't the normal image stacking and pixel masking resolve this? Seems like a bigger threat to astronomy is clouds.

Another example would be forward error correction (adding parity bits to improve robustness at the expense of efficiency). But inefficiency isn't necessarally more robust unless the extra bits serve some purpose.
