I think this design works well only in the context of computer casing or similar. The warm air coming from Sandia doesn't seem to get very far away? So it would eventually disrupt the cooling process if it's not blown away by the regular fa

It has to get that air moving at comparable speeds to be as efficient as the traditional way. The trick here is to get the air move faster with less sound. It's possible because of larger airfoils, so they can get more laminar flow and with

I can't really say that I would have deep knowledge of this stuff. I do know however that Golf current does not come to the Baltic sea. It cannot, as it would just rise to water-level, no way to run through. But usually wind and weather com

Heard of Viking crusades? It happened partly because there was too many people living in Scandinavia. That happened because Scandinavian farming had gotten the population to get too big. You run out of reliable fishing sources long before y

I'm from small town called Liminka, it's next to Oulu in Finland. The sea freezes in the winter but that doesn't keep Liminka from being a legendary farming area because of high crop yield. It's just warm enough to have good crops in the su

People have used protective clothing for a long time now. Farmers used to use big hats. I can't prove anything from 5000 years ago, but there was a kind of cowboy hat in Finnish farmer culture about hundred years back. http://rautu.fi/Tall

Then how come not every Scandinavian girl have c-cup tits? I thought sexual selection yields wildly variating features. And Scandinavian skin pigment was some time ago strikingly uniform.

Japanese have beauty standard to be pale. Scandinavians have the opposite here. And do you know anyone from japan who is not albino and virtually could not get a tan. I myself and loads of Finnish people I know are really sensitive to sunli

Baltic sea is much less salty than ocean. And there are less waves to keep the water moving. Both help a lot to get some ice-fishing conditions.

Before I read this I thought it was just some design and people going "WHOA" or "wtf" about it. But your comment made me understand. Sad that it's bottom of the list. There should have been something about the thickness consideration in the

That's completely true. HN is about curiosity however and that's why nothing should be educated to HNers by simple repetition.

For some reason, stuff that takes less than three years for five guys to make, is usually the stuff that gets done. If it takes only one year by one guy, it's probably done already. Our whole society is defined by that. Bigger projects just

This rant seems somehow familiar. This kind of "girls not accepted in tech" was something "that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity" at first. Now it's just repeating the same stuff, and I don't think it's gratifying anyones curiosity.

There was a time when everybody thought that Japanese could not do widespread high quality manufacturing. Now they are known for the high quality. There was quality considerations of Finnish ship building, that changed too. It's very common

The point is that in typical apartment fire, the temperature rises to at least to 800C. Steel has good thermal conductivity, and therefore steel structures start to bend greatly when temperature hits 600C in a single floor. This usually cau
