I think I'd appreciate a compilation of such surprising facts, if anyone has a list. I feel like the "falsehoods programmers believe about [thing]" is a little similar, but about correctness and never about performance.
Tech divers are also probably gonna be having a Bad Time. Helium mixes are already pretty expensive, I assume this will make it far worse.
This generates a really annoying features with some browsers. Suppose I want to select "United Kingdom". I open the drop-down and there are all the countries in alphabetical order, plus "United States" at the top of the…
This is extremely disappointing. The insurer in question has a very good reputation within the dive community for acting in good faith and for providing medical information free of charge to non-members. This sounds…
Well how confident would you be that this part isn't exposed to temperatures above that glass transition temperature? It is installed near the engine.
Well they'll end up with higher prices at night. I wonder if we'll see a shift to energy-intensive processes being run during the daytime.
And before that with gears! (With limited success.)
This article is quite frustrating, since all that it really tells me is that their system "generates thrust without using any propellant and without expelling reaction mass, by directly converting electrical energy into…
> But if you offer paid servies, collect money from UK citizens, you must have a business representation in the UK I don't think that's true at all. You be taking payment by credit card, which doesn't require you to…
How, if at all, would you fund the federal government? Are you suggesting you don't think the current way taxpayers interact with the IRS is very functional, or you'd like to actually get rid of having any agency…
Mazdas do lock the screen when in motion. Actions can be accomplished using a 'big knob' button that can be turned or pressed. The driver can still distract themselves, but I believe it's to a lesser extent that the…
This is one of my pet peeves: people saying they accept risk/responsibility that they don't have the ability to accept. It's like co-signing a $1M loan when you only have $100 to your name.
I also did my first one out of cardboard!
Mighty bold of them to assume that most of engineering would be above most of legal.
> about a decade later Practically the blink of an eye to a cosmologist!
That second idea (cosmic primordial soup causing universal similarity / compatibility of life) could be a great component of a sci-fi story.
This article is a little bizarre, in that it leaves a lot unsaid. On reading it my first thought is "the government could simply forbid its department from considering bids from Fujitsu". This seems like a perfectly…
That seems like it would be very difficult. For a telescope mirror you want a very good surface finish, and that's one thing that 3D printing does very poorly.
Or in natural units: three very tall men stood on top of one another, wearing a top hat.
I've sent you a message.
I have a background in fluid dynamics and may be interested in helping with this. Is there a way for me to contact you?
> with the same engine and code Presumably they would be selling the IP rights, so at least some kind of rewrite would be required, possibly without utilizing staff who worked on Chrome.
Great lecturer - when I took Part III he stepped in for a few sessions when the regular lecturer for QFT broke her arm. His notes are always pretty clearly explained. Equally importantly, I've found he's always really…
Yeh, the quoted commentary is hyperbole. My homeland (the UK) has such a law. I do think that law isn't great. But my country isn't shitty, and it's certainly a democracy. If we start being perfectionist, we pretend…
An article about Admiral Rickover appeared here a few days ago, and I think it's apt to quote him in this context: "Complex jobs cannot be accomplished effectively with transients."
