That's a good point. In America we call this type of deposit a "core charge." The "core" is the component you return to the store to get your deposit back. This is done for components like starter motors, alternator

It's relevant because ground based satellites add observational capacity. If a ground based telescope can't get a good view, that's when you queue up Chandra or James Webb (Hubble is not the same type of telescope, and it&#x2

Part of the reason you don't see them more is because commercial satellite mega-constellations (like Starlink) work against long exposure times by literally clouding and brightening our view of space. (1) 1) https://www.natu

One of the main concerns of astronomers, and one of the benefits of Chandra and James Webb being in orbit aboard sattelites, is the prevelance of commercial sattelite constellations ruining the view of the cosmos. (1) 1) https://

I worked for the Chandra Operations Control Center in Burlington MA for a while. The team was a fascinating collaboration between Northrop Grumman, The Smithsonian, NASA, and Harvard. The telescope was launched into orbit in 1999 and has be

To answer your question; it helps to explain what the upgrade process entails. In the case of Linux DKMS updates: DKMS is re-compiling your installed kernel modules to match the new kernel. Sometimes a kernel update will also update the sys

This, 100%. I'd like to add my reasoning for a similar failure of an HP Proliant server I encountered. Sometimes hardware can fail during long uptime and not become a problem until the next reboot. Consider a piece of hardware with 1

To charge a 57,000 watt tesla with an 800w consumer solar panel would take 71 hours of sunlight. There is not 24 hours of sunlight in a single day. This also is not considering the battery management which heats the battery passively. So it

The battery in a model X is 57,000 watts. To charge that with an 800 watt consumer grade wind turbine would take 71 hours. Try again.

You find another car and use a center punch on the gas tank. Drain it into a container and fuel whatever you want with it. You'll be charging a 57kw model X for AT LEAST an entire day using solar panels that would barely fit in the tru

My concerns are the computerization of vehicles in general. The issue is not entirely with the telemetry itself, as you frame it. My issue is "what happens when the telemetry is not available?" You, and perhaps your friend, seem

Are we supposed to believe that a book which teaches people how to be "programmers" without writing any code was actually written by a human author?

This. I'd be concerned purchasing a book from a "programmer" who claims to teach people how to code without code. Kinda sounds like an "author" who publishes books without writing books.
