Nobody goes 70 mph on freeways. They go 80 mph on that road because it's the speed of traffic. If you declared a "speed limit reset" and raised the speed limit to 80 mph, people won't be going 90 mph. They will be going

Most states ban speed cameras and many ban red light cameras as 4th amendment violations. You cannot face your accuser when your accuser is a robot. As a result, speed camera tickets have always used some legal sleight-of-hand to nail you i

Em-dashes are a bit too conversational for formal prose, so they have always been looked down on aside from usage by AI.

Dumping is when you sell things for below cost. It is not dumping when you charge a 500% markup instead of a 1000% markup, even if the market is currently selling at that markup.

Speech-to-text has gone through courts before. It's not a new technology. You're out of luck on sneaking the use of speech-to-text in 2-party consent states.

When I have bought things internationally, I have always been the one doing the importing. This means I paid some Trump taxes and I will get my money back.

Your TV probably does that, and you definitely gave it permission when you clicked "accept" on the terms.

The general guidance if you are writing for amateurs is to stop the tenor and soprano sections at their respective "high G" and if you are writing for professionals to avoid going above their B. Amateur choirs will often sing musi

People at the extreme ends of the spectrum of range are rarer and people in the middle of the range are more common. As it stands, choral bass parts fit better into untrained voices than choral tenor parts. A typical baritone (middle range

I doubt this is correct. Women tend to be mezzos and men tend to be baritones entirely based on the structure of their vocal apparatus, not because they are trying to force a sound (with the possible exception of gay men). In most cases, me

I compose music once in a while. I'm now trying to write more in a texture like SSAATB if I want amateurs to sing the music, but it's not as easy to write as SATB or SSAATTBB music.

As a professional-level baritone who has sung tenor parts quite a lot, there is a shortage of every low voice type (directors are often conflicted when I make the offer to sing tenor). People who can produce a chorally-acceptable A or Bb ar

Making your radiator hotter than the thing you're pulling heat out of is very, very expensive in energy terms. This is why home AC is so expensive and why nobody uses systems like this to cool computers. All that energy has to come fro

Has anyone filed a CCPA-related lawsuit against Flock for retention and sharing of this data? How about a civil action for stalking? I assume it will just take one creative individual to find the right tort and then Flock will be buried und

You can do about 100k commits per second, but this also partly depends on the CPU you attach to it. It also varies with how complicated the queries are. With 100 million DAU, you're often going to have problems with this rate unless yo

I am referring to the "using a heat pump to make the radiator hotter than the GPU" as "creating a thermal gradient." No matter the technology, moving heat like this is always pretty expensive in power terms, and the pric

The "new hotness" in webdev is what causes these errors. Plain old HTML pretty much never has these issues. Clearly they are into the new hotness in webdev.

"High emissivity, high temperature" sounds good on paper, but to create that temperature gradient within your spacecraft the way you want costs a lot of energy. What you actually do is add a shit load of surface area to your space

Peltiers and heat pipes don't remove heat, they just move it. You still need the radiator.

I think you may be overestimating how quickly this happens and underestimating how much surface area that rock has. Given no atmosphere, the fact that the rock with 1/4 the radius of Earth has a temperature differential of only 300C be

"Radiate" is exactly what you have to do, and that is extremely slow. You need a huge area to dissipate the amount of power you are talking about.

Solar panels in space are more efficient, but on the ground we have dead dinosaurs we can burn. The efficiency gain is also more than offset by the fact that you can't replace a worn out panel. A few years into the life of your satelli

Once a city gets to the density of Tokyo with the transit of Tokyo, there's little reason to build parking. I would expect that in smaller cities around Tokyo, plenty of building owners choose to build parking.
