I have a strong Jersey accent to the point where I need a separate "work voice". Mostly I just focus on neutralizing the vowels, which has the side effect of restoring the consonants a bit. What I didn't realize was the exten

I think it's fair to call it the transition from Empire to Tetrarchy. Like how we distinguish between the Roman Kingdom, Republic, and Empire.

There was plenty written about it. Whoever wrote the article was confidently incorrect about how they interpreted what was written.

I had a math professor who would occasionally correct an equation in the Wikipedia article about some theorem he invented, but someone would always change it back. He eventually gave up.

The Russian government exists to serve the oligarchs of natural resource extraction. There is nothing you can give them that will make them lose interest in acquiring more natural resources. You can deter them by showing strength, and you c

That's not what they're saying. They're formally accusing management of not doing their jobs.

You would probably dislike troubleshooting your connections more. In-cable redrivers are the electrical analogue of an API. They decouple the two devices and the cable from each other's bullshit.

Detroit is a city. They already try to encourage high-density living through the types of zoning they have. I don't see a fundamental issue with aligning their taxes to better facilitate their development goals. Similar arguments would

There are still a few companies that make them. Called "slide charts", since they come in many forms besides just the "rule" form. I look into having them made every now and then, but it seems like the minimum order quan

What about it? Looks like they did a joint project for a customer one time and now they directly compete with each other.

In general, you can organize specifications and verification information in a way that can be consumed by other programs for the purpose of synthesizing designs or generating tests or whatever. At that point, an optimizer could do a a decen

I think the challenge is that a university press is not interchangeable with a journal.

Thank you for explaining it so well. Some libraries also have digital versions, allowing you to effectively browse the stacks from anywhere. The feature can and should be improved as it's a bit clunky. Digitization is a slow process, b

Many libraries have computers for accessing the catalog, which now includes all the digital media. You make a good argument for why they should if they don't already.

With respect, I think I already addressed your quibble. I acknowledged the backlog of materials yet to be digitized and explained how to expedite it on an as-needed basis. It's no more burdensome than it would be with more library fund

Let's take nanohub.org as an example. It's funded by an NSF grant and everyone can access it for free. A university doesn't need to make any expenditures for their students to benefit from it. Researchers choose to publish in

I don't think it's fair to say they've disinvested from libraries. Most of the information is digitized, which has better reach. Books that cannot be digitized yet due to copyright are held in storage until they enter public

A hydrogen fuel cell also vents and you can ignite the concentrated stream like a blow torch. At 5% the pressure of a H fuel cell, the battery probably vents less hydrogen.

I assume you're referring to applications where it's not important to do proper floating/fixed point design in the first place? Or do you have some other way of avoiding numerical problems?
