It's both. It's literally the transition phase from 3 dimensional models (vector-based curves, points, and polygons) to final pixel-based raster images. Rendering transforms the wireframe models into images. 3D graphics…
Good point! Water table contamination is yet another hazard. Fukushima is situated on the coast line, and already leaks into the ocean, but Chernobyl is near the Pripyat river, and is a tributary to the Dnieper River,…
Nuclide, not nucleotide. Nucleotides are the fundamental component of a DNA molecule. Nuclides are the differentiated nucleuses of the common atomic elements, some of which are regarded as isotopes, of which some…
e.g a huge earthquake or a tsunami as in Japan's case, or maybe an attack ... faith in the human operators To enumerate some regretably normal human factors: 1. deliberate procedural over-complication in the name of job…
But let's get creative about the realities of hazardous radioactive waste storage. It's not an impossible problem to solve, when you think about it pragmatically. It's difficult, expensive, requires material resources,…
Wikipedia's article seems to point to the idea that recently, super alloy applications are placing high demand on a supply chain that was not prepared for such a change in market trends. I think rhenium diboride seems…
WHEELS WITHIN WHEELS!
A true hipster would be imitating this guy's spamtastic style with a sense of irony. Hey, that gives me an idea...
It's simple! Just ban the number they've been assigned and that solves the problem once and for all! ...but what if they make a request under the guise of a different organization, to be assigned new numbe-- ONCE AND…
Alright, so here are some of the most common applications, although I'm not sure about the chemistry behind them... Rhenium: High performance super alloys, particularly when mixed with tungsten, mostly useful in turbine…
It'd be nice if the article went into detail about the particulars of what might be so indispensible about certain elements. Why are rhenium, rhodium, lanthanum, europium, dysprosium, thulium, ytterbium, yttrium,…
I am uncertain that it would "destroy the global economy." That sounds like hyperbole. Convince me. It would be any unhappy event, assuredly, but if "the global economy" wasn't destroyed by the Iraq debacle, I'm pretty…
Duly noted!
Your request to have them explicitly define what they are designating as metadata is wise. They may have a completely distorted concept of metadata that represents a drastic departure from any sane definition. But the…
In a generation or two, those positions will be staffed by completely different people, as the "THEY" of today retire. When the "THEY" of tomorrow are handed the keys to this vast panopticon that they didn't have to…
...and the euphamism "Boiling Frogs." The idea being that if you place frogs in a pool of water and raise the water temperature ever so slowly, the frogs will never notice that they are eventually being boiled alive, so…
