They chose that class. The syllabus stated what they are going to study. Having an expert in a subject explain something you want to understand, is what you pay for. There are many ways of expanding your knowledge. To each his own.

Great article. Nice review... Helps to see the mathematical equations and numbers, like Bernoulli and Reynolds's, compared to graphs and flow tunnel simulations.

Very cool discussion and ideas. A true HN article. Need to translate though - unless of course you are Polish.

Here is a fun sailboat race simulator. It's very simple, but pretty realistic especially for open ocean racing. You can use their default race course, sometimes join a planned regatta, or make your own. (It was great during COVID, to t

That may be a good thing. Most of the seasickness drugs make you queasy, if you don't go out on a rolling sea after taking them.

Pottery stores usually have a "lead test" kit. Quite simple to use.

Excellent write up. Thank-you. Not anything in the available press, or media, has explained it so well.

If need to, keep your eyes open for phones that you can use Graphene on - it is the easiest, possibly safest, de-googled operating system. And very easy to install.

Great article about the Mosquito! Thanks. That's yet another HN rabbit hole! It confirmed a friend's war story I heard, first hand - about escaping from a German POW camp near Berlin - then proceeding to Copenhagen, with the hel

That's great. Thanks. When you start watching it you think, it will be too long, but it gets better and better. Everything goes back to Einstein. YARH! Yet another rabbit hole! It's amazing we have any time left to do anything aft

Brilliant write up. I remember using the old ones, and only last year found the oxo model. truly amazing. Many important lessons in product design in that article; with the most important in the last sentence - it has to work!

You're right. just look at the devolution of Windows by generation. As everyone on HN comments on, how terrible Windows 11 is compared to windows 10, compared to windows 7, etc. (bloat, unnecessary apps, intrusiveness and so on.) Adver

Your "on phone" or desktop synthesizer is amazing. Thanks for that. I shared with my more musical synth type friends. Your program reminds us, of how amazing music can be, with such a simple backbone. (Just as in the case of a har

Like your comments. Question. How does a BMS count coulombs? I mean what is the technology used?

Look it up. It's a fascinating system of the global hacker mindset fighting Russian propaganda.

Your rant was great. It leads one to ponder, among other things - ants. They produce formic acid. Ants like to live under houses, especially in the late summer. How much formaldehyde fumes do they produce? Does it come up the cracks in your

I get results everytime. Maybe not the cheapest. But it's something, and it's fast... Very fast. (Compared to going to a website.) With a very simple sentence full of acronyms that we all use buy now, it is a fun experimental tool

So I've tried a few variations on ticket searches. Pain language great. Two fliers great, can specify times and stops. Trans continental with connections, works - specifying destinations and round trips Worked great too. Local flight

Granitic rocks on Mars! Here is what I told my kids - (although not a geologist, but decades working in prospecting, exploration and mapping): The white rock is absolutely amazing! Look at all the others. They are glassy, vuggy - volcanic l

What a great link. Thankyou. There is still so much to learn from the microbiome. Working with contaminated sites, I have seen bacterial adaptations to the most l nastiest sites, almost always improving the toxicity of the soil. (There are
