But doesn't Einstein not talk about how you observe the clock when you move away from the clock? So the clock keeps ticking the same time but you can't observe it because you are traveling at the speed of light. So when you trav

Last week I watched the movie Interstellar and I still don't get why the main character could be younger than his daughter when he returns from space. And I also don't get your comment. Probably because I don't get relativity

The same with Train Sim. Waiting 5 minutes for a red sign is very realistic but there is no fun in it.

Update policies on Android (I want to use my phone until it is completely broken) made me start to look at Apple. But then I realized it is not an alternative. In another thread someone compared Apple with a dictatorship and this is right.

It was more like dev & dev. I am not criticizing anyone because I was just lucky to notice the query could be rewritten. But it was also the fact that I had a little more knowledge about how the db engine handles queries. So we all look

This is why I don't get why gondola lifts are not more popular for both people and cargo. Maybe in cities the wind is an issue.

It is all about lack of knowledge because checking where the bottlenecks are is one thing. Knowing why they are there is another. A retailer app was very slow. The developers proposed a newer faster server with a newer Oracle version. Then

When you have a location you can also use the gyroscope to track where the device is going after the starting point. Almost like a video stream. Once in a while a keyframe and a stream of changes in between.

Is this true? Lately I noticed a change. Autocorrect now suggests based on previous words. I am not sure this use to be the case. For example if I type "this is not the" it suggests the next word might be "case".

Be very careful with this. Light sources can emit all kind of peaks of light you might not notice. For example a LED might look red but can also emit some infrared.

In a lot of videos you can see a fire next to the storage facility. It was also a very hot day. So most people believe the temperature in the storage raised enough to make the ammonium nitrate unstable. Melting point: 169.6 °C

The article is a little unclear about this. The Telstar satellites made it possible for IBM to send digital data but it would also stream analog video. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telstar

It is very hard to create unbiased IQ tests. There will always be cultural differences and differences in opportunity. IQ tests should be taken with a grain of salt. It also depends on what you think is important. Smart people are not alway

Well I hear a lot of praise about Fusion 360. So it's not all bad. And I don't agree with your statement. Blender is a great example for this. Although it is not constraint based it is a full feature package which is very fast. Co

I can't speak for Revit but people are looking to switch to Blender from 3dsMax. The problem is not that Blender can't do what 3ds can but it lacks industry standard tooling compatibility. But still a lot of people in the industry

I can't read the article (server does not respond) but I believe it is not only about Autocad. I hear people complain about Revit and 3dsMax as well. What I mostly hear is: very expensive, lots of bugs, lags with new features and impro

It doesn't matter. Just listen to what you like. Even Mozart and Bach made crap music on a bad day. I think in our time we are very fortunate to have the ability to discover music so easily. Personally I never listen to mainstream musi

The crew thought it would be a smooth ride. But then came a storm and they all gave up hope. It is known that if you think the way to your goal is a smooth ride you can end up in a very big depression when things don't go as planned.

What a lot of people also don't know is that forging doesn't give the steel it's strength. Forging is done because it is way easier/cheaper than melting and casting it. Quenching and tempering gives it it's desired

I believe there is a lot of software that can do math on input. Holding and moving up/down to increase or decrease is also supported in a lot of software.
