IIRC most aircraft will require a series of inspections on parts if parked for a week. Most aircraft are built to be flown with little to no interruptions (other than for maintenance). From what I recall, if your aircraft sits on the ground

The video game SOMA deals with these issues to some extend; Who is the real you if you copy-paste yourself over to a new body? And what about the you that stayed behind?

From your perspective, the entire length of the milky way is squished into 22 light years (roughly), so not really violating anything. From the outside frame of reference you still take 10000 years (plus) to cross that distance, from your p

It might exist in hyperbolic space; the station folds in on itself. Although it appears to be only a few dozen meters large from the outside, once you're in it's space, it appears much larger (500 meters) and the inside, which is

The solution would be a small amendment of the GDPR that local DPCs can take matters in their own hands if 1-2 years pass without the other DPC doing anything about a violation. (This would still be different from the other DPC finding ther

It's mostly the Irish DPC dragging feet, from experience my own local DPC has been excellent and in one case a complaint of mine resulted in a fine. They just can't do anything about companies registered in Ireland.

A lot of IDPs break. For example any website that presents "Login with Google" will not work or require a reload after completing the Auth flow before the login is accepted. This isn't simply "blocking third party cookie

Bitcoin is certainly not an option in Germany. Other mining operations may be borderline profitable, if you have a card already lying around.

Rootless Docker is basically a joke, I've tried to run production workloads on it for about a year before I gave up. Numerous docker images will refuse to work, a bunch of things will subtly fill your error logs with warnings and it do

Hardly a thing that 99% of crates are even viable for. What company would pay me 3k$ a month to full-time (or 1k$ for part-time) maintain some crate that barely anyone uses? Only popular crates would have a chance to have support contracts

They should have taken a page out of Bitcoins/Ethereums book and used mnemoic phrases and clearly labelling them as "Recovery key" with big red bold letters everytime you enter it.

That is the quality of the crate, but the maintenance going on in the crate can be separate. A crate can be good quality but also unmaintained.

The important metrics I'd be interested in is the Bus Factor, the Active Maintenance and Passive Maintenance activity as well as when the last release tag was created. Bus Factor could be a bucketed 90-percentile count on the contribut

I'm aware it's EM but I'm pointing out it's dissipated as heat through wire current. I'm aware it's imaginary, doesn't mean it doesn't produce electrical load in the wire. Besides, for any reasonable

They are, but information about if a project is still actively maintained or if it's simply feature complete (data structures come to mind), should be automated in some way, otherwise information becomes stale if the maintainer of that

Where I lived until like a year ago, it was cheaper to heat via electric heating than the heatpump by about 3-4%, the maintenance costs of the heatpump compressor did the rest after a decade. That is in a temperate region with winter not go

That's cost, not how much harder it is. Buying a domain is a few clicks and costs little money.

Reactive load is dissipated as heat, it does actually do what is intended here.

Heat pumps move heat around, that has to come from somewhere. Their performance is not measured in efficiency but the performance coefficient, which simply measures in Watt per Watt how much energy is moved.

by zaarn 6y ago
No, Heat Pumps are measured in COP (Coefficient of Performance), not thermodynamic efficiency or "the definition of efficiency for home heating". Which of the 5 definitions do you want to use?

Doesn't help if the response was "closed, I don't care about this project anymore".

From a thermodynamic standpoint, yes, but nobody with an honest face will claim that makes measuring wasted energy as efficiency a bad measurement. In cases of heating, resistive is 100% efficient as you loose none of the energy put in to w

A gas oven is not 100% efficient. If yours says it is, it's a lie sold to you by gas oven manufacturers. It's 100% efficient compared to some previous oven sold. Simple proof by example; if the exhaust air of your gas oven is warm
565.
by zaarn 6y ago
I would not call that a 100% efficiency. The efficiency of a heatpump is expressed in Watt per Watt, ie, how many watts of thermal energy are moved per watt of electric energy. The reason is that simply a heat pump does not convert electric

by zaarn 6y ago
Resistive Heating is literally the most efficient form of heating where 100% (ie, all of) of the electric watts you put in are turned into thermal energy. Doesn't mean that the generator on the other end is efficient but that is a sepa

A court letter, even from small claims, is something you don't ignore. Last I checked, FANG do show up to small claims court, because loosing there is enforceable by law which can get expensive to ignore, if the accuser is willing to l

In most cases, going through some companies dispute process will work 99.99% of the time. That is my experience buying from a lot of online shops (directly and via ebay) that they will in a grand majority of cases respond reasonably quickly
