Non-profit boards have so many varied issues it's a little silly, but since the pay is low or non-existent you end up with a lot of them run by the only person willing to be nominated. I have seen the only person nominated to positions

Without even getting into Recall, every time I install Windows 11 (not even a consumer edition) it takes a solid 10 minutes of clicking multiple times on hard to find options to disable the pre-AI spyware that merely monitored what you di

It's definitely worth reminding anyone that this is why you need train stations to have good bus service to the surrounding area. You can't even take a commuter rail (in a city with decent rail transit) unless your destination has

The parent correctly notes that you can't use solar thermal directly for industrial processes because it won't get hot enough and that it's easier to retrofit electric infrastructure than a bunch of mirrors and optics. Grandp

I would say that MIT has jumped on the entrepreneurship train (for better and worse) much more wholeheartedly in the decade since this account of an even older (!) anecdote. That's not to say that the startups aren't doing hard te

I remember the first time I noticed that I could guess correctly which fingertip a friend shining a tiny red pen laser was shining it on, just from minuscule temperature differences. That you can feel artificial lighting as heat (the actual

Sorry, I meant to explicitly include faculty as people who create teams and are responsible for a good work culture. I agree with you, they are HR people in practice.

Yeah, this is what I am also thinking of. It makes sense for people in a position to create a culture or hire a team to know, it's a science you probably weren't exposed to in school and knowing the real effects that are known and

There are a handful of contexts where it makes more sense, like for a HR person potentially, without trying to bring ideology into it that's the place it makes sense since that's the place where you can actually implement the conc

Sorry about that other poster, I appreciate your answer to my question. Thinking it's a lot for an individual household to have to identify and do this much paperwork for childcare is an entirely reasonable response. As is doing taxes

Gotcha, thanks for the explanation. Sounds like too much hassle to DIY for sure, I guess their classification logic makes sense.

Out of curiosity, what made it difficult? Not knowing what was required for sure? Figuring out how to fill out the 1099-MISC? Knowing how to file it with the IRS/state? I remember it being a bit tricky at first but once I knew the righ

Excellent point, lots and lots and lots and lots of physical objects are harmonic oscillators. That does have pretty fundamental grounding in physics. I can think of lots of other places I'd use fourier analysis (at least qualitatively

The most common offenders are cars that had the angle of their beams set wrong by someone who didn't care, I think, based on observations walking next to them. It's too common for one to point high enough to hit my face, nowhere n

It seemed to me like they actually got explicit consent to have guest permissions to view this information, I am honestly pleasantly surprised. Once I saw them looking at the security tokens I got worried, but they pulled it out of a tailsp

Pretty rare, versus pretty hard to diagnose though? I'd be more surprised if everyone wasn't leaking a little and a lot of people are leaking enough that it would be noticeable if they knew to recognize it. Re: your question I thi

Hah, I thought I was the only one. I'm not particularly face blind either... something about the era I guess.

They're describing relative mass, which is related to gravitational attraction and inertia, whether there is "more" is not something they measured. What is "more"?

When steel rusts the surface is cracked and removed pretty easily by friction, you often see parts rusted through after years or in places with salt on roads. That's definitely more than aesthetic. On the other hand, if you mean "

Personally I'd attribute it to lobbyists hitting both parties pretty aggressively, but I'm sure some have this idea. If taxes are complicated then it means it's easy to fit in loopholes (or fair tradeoffs depending on your po

The paper talks about how they can get it to work in a narrow 1MHz band (though at full 1MBbit/sec speeds I am skeptical of course), but even then I'm struggling to imagine fitting the number of people on that beach into channels
