Of course. It has nothing to do with a parasitical ruling class engineering an economy to flow resources in their direction and away from the economic future of the country. It has nothing to do with ballooning university tuitions that fin

I also knew a girl who didnt know how two type with two hands, but was as fast as anyone with one hand. It was cool because she could use the mouse at the same time, or take notes on a piece of paper. Since then, Ive practiced one handed ty

I hated red hat, but its what I used in grad school until the post-doc told me to use Debian. I haven't looked back since; Debian's been my desktop since 2011 :)

"who consume 12 MWh of power per capita, while it's around 6 or 7 MWh for modern European countries." Lol, you write that as if the Europeans were consuming half as much because they are morally enlightened. Europeans use 6Mw

Its not that inconvenient unless the spaces are very narrow. In the us the spaces are typically wide enough to allow s carry to squeeze through.

The vast majority of people don't turn around around when they reverse. They just rely on their mirrors. Cameras are a mixed blessing. On the one hand these people are getting a better view, on the other even more people have gotten la

Its incredible how few people appreciate this, or how hard it is to explain to people. The rear wheels pivot!! This is also why the quality of the rear tires is far more important - the fulcrum, or pivot, sees the most stress!

They attack him because, rightly, it was his father who set in place a series of policies that destroyed English Canada's once unique, distinctly British, culture. But, why do I care? My parents dragged me into Canada at age six, I lef

But that's not my point. I have no problem also asserting that American film makers, because of their past racists prejudices, didn't bother to research a workable solution to a fundamentally physical problem. My point is that

You'd have more representation buying a single meta stock than a lifetime of voting in Canadian elections. I cant think of any western country with a more (effectively) non linear response of seats vs. vote share than Canada.

Well the Prime Minister himself agrees with you condescendingly saying there is no Canadian culture.

It probably has no applications in transmission. Trans losses arent that high; not enough to justify refurbishing the grid. The electrical resistance per se is actually not that interesting. Certainly not for energy loss. Electronics would

Blue collars pay quite a bit for the healthcare benefit without having ti subsidize their studies. Besides, what s%^%t return for the blue collar! For every, what? 200 paper pushers with a BS white collar job they get one surgeon.

In Georgia, if you have and maintain a B average its free. I don't agree its fair, though, for the blue collar folks or the people who aren't bright enough to go to college to have to subsidize it. Or in Georgia's case, those

So I looked around for real figures of merit on these things - efficiency is but one. One thing I noticed is that every press release failed to mention the heat flux of these devices. Gscholar to the rescue. \DeltaT = 5 K and a max Q of 135

Im pretty sure 90s Hertz rentals in Italy had something like this. It was terrible, unreliable and once left us stranded. Whats not clear to me is if this blocks the starter (high current) or is a bit smarter by blocking a lower current com

The article pearl clutches w/out stating why Vienna is a spying hub (no, its not the intl. orgs there). Hint - legally Austria is not, in the words of the article, "allies" with the West.

None of the materials you listed are fluorinated polymers. EDIT: If you meant that I cant turn PEEK into a plastic (as in having plasticity) - sure. But read my comment carefully. Im not saying fluorinated polymers don't have their use

Sure, but it works :) (except that one company that had a low quality membrane that leached ionomers, lol). Once plastics have leached off their manufacturing chemicals they really are very benign. The membranes you mention are permeable, b

Most applications, even industrial, that need perfluorinated plastics have more expensive alternatives. Some industries really dont have alternatives. How about we get rid of nonstick pans, gore Tex jackets and significantly reduce fluorine
