There are summer suits and sports coats that are unlined or half -lined (e.g the sleeves are usually lined for ease of wearing and removing).
I did a similar project at 18. Needless to say I didn't have enough HW and SW skills to do much since I implemented the most naive form of the TDOA algorithms as well as the most inefficient way of estimating the time…
And Armenian, which is also Indo-European and uses its own alphabet
Awnings are very standard in Switzerland, almost every balcony has one, in addition to exterior blinds on all windows.
There's even "passive cooling" (called thermal mass activation) where you circulate groundwater through the floors/ceiling or concrete walls to cool them down. Ideally combined with a geothermal source heat pump to…
In Switzerland most offices and the majority of houses have exterior metal slat blinds or rolling shutters. Almost all are operated electrically and quite a few are controlled by inputs from wind and sunlight sensors.…
Count me in the club of failed scientists. In my case it was the geosciences, I would spend hours trying to make all my analysis reproducible and statistically sound while many colleagues just published preliminary…
I've had both hypnagogic hallucinations and night terrors a lot when I was younger, up until my early 30s. They almost disappeared now, which I can't really explain. For me the worst were the hallucinations, the most…
I'd love for the list to contain location information, something like the country or general area. I feel like I have a lot to learn from a good mentor but it's hard to find then
Ensemble kalman filter (and similar techniques like variational assimilation) are also used heavily in the geosciences to assimilate measurements and model data in order to obtain a "posterior observation" which can be…
There are plenty of non commercial, non enterprise ELN system. With all their down sides, they are all pretty similar and relatively easy to use (they could use better UI but that's often a problem in research). I think…
Yes the technology was there already 15 years ago (minus a nicer UI and a slightly better UX). Researchers despite all the talk about innovation are surprisingly resistant to change
Electronic lab notebook.
Or you skip the notepad and use a tablet and an electronic lab notebook. I know of a few researcher doing this successfully, but for this to work at scale senior scientists and group leaders need to force everyone in…
Or maybe just adopt the modern solution and use a electronic lab notebook (ELN). I'm a software engineer and we are trying to introduce ELN in our institution, it's not easy to convince researchers of the benefits of…
That could describe most of Swiss society as well. Endless discussions on every single topic in order to reach a "consensus". While superficially democratic and beneficial, you do see the limits of this approach when…
the quote is missing what happened after the Platzpitz and later the older Letten train station were cleared: heroin use was decriminalised - not legalised - but only in controlled locations under supervision from…
I wish I heard this advice at the time I was working on my dissertation: everyone just insisted that the right way was to use LaTeX and I just bought into it. At some point so much so that I made my slides with beamers…
Indeed if you want to be mobile during an hypothetical societal collapse/apocalypse, few vehicles would beat a (mountain) bike, possibly a slightly older model that uses common parts and doesn't require exotic tools for…
Surely there's more industry knowledge and better tooling/PPE behind stainless steel given the widespread adoption in all kinds of industry? I'd assume the risk for the workers installing it in homes is far lower as the…
Funny that you mentioned this, in Italian "bergamotto" is a sort of bitter orange
I heard that the normal yellow limes we can buy in Europe aren't as sweet as limoo shirin. however it seems to be the same plant, just a different cultivar. Anyway, now I have yet another reason to go to Iran
That's exactly what my wife said too, the limoo shirin is only sweet just after peeling/juicing and turns bitter fast. I looked it up and looks very similar to the "standard" yellow lemons we get in Europe, mostly grown…
Funny enough it seems in Persian there's no clear distinction between lime and lemon. My wife calls both "limoo". She does however claim there's a particular cultivars "limoo Shirin" that is supposedly very sweet (and…
You seem to confuse "real"state management solutions (closures, objects) with syntactic sugar like context managers. Any class implementing __enter__ and __exit__ can be used as a context manager. The protocol doesn't…
