Yeah. At 9:34 they're dealing with entangled photons passing through 2 filters at different points in space, simultaneously. They affect each other, which is impossible without faster-than-light communication between them. This is abso

Your understanding is mostly correct. The issue with the fuel rods is that they were double purpose - the lower portion actually increased the reaction rate, while the upper portion decreased it. Because the team had manually fully retracte

Maybe that's got more to do with the fact that the Faroe Islands have a population of 52,000 while Japan's population is 125,410,000? Surely the fishing practices of the nation 2400x larger are going to be more impactful by at lea

You misunderstand why syshum answered the way he did. GP used the phrase "actual damages" which is a precise term of art in law. Damages have to exist (actual damages already suffered, or statutory damages imposed on conduct which

This is extremely relevant and neither mentioned nor linked to in the attached article. You might want to post this as a top level comment instead of a reply so it gets the attention it deserves.

This is a false dichotomy, and really just a red herring. GP claimed "GMOs ... will kill the best farming land we have" The parent you replied to refuted that point. Onerous IP clauses surrounding crop seeds is an IP issue, not on

I don't think I follow your reasoning about 'real objects'. Real objects can (and usually must) be coated with scanning sprays, like the Aesub Blue the author notes in several places that he uses. These sprays then vanish com

Interesting. That OV06948 camera is also 40k (200x200) pixels, 30fps, and RGB. Critically, the page you link lists its weight at 0.87g = 870mg, which would make it 157x denser than lead.[1] The actual spec sheet says 0.87 mg, i.e. less than

Regarding wordiness - that's why you put it below the fold. People who prefer reading know to scroll down to get the textual version instead of having to watch a video. And that's not saying you have to do pure text without grap
