I think a lot of people would be into this. If you're willing to, you should totally do it! You might get some good contributions from the community, too.
Do you have/do you plan to open source this anywhere? I'd be really interested in checking it out!
What a strange take. It reads as "nothing is worth improving on if it cannot 100% completely replace the thing that we're trying to get rid of". If we can reduce our dependence (say 50%) on a power source that has huge…
This article (and the included video) has a bit more detail for those interested in the mechanics of how they accomplished the move (like me!): https://www.archdaily.com/973183/the-building-that-moved-how...
Yes, in the same way a Cuisinart blender is a "monopoly" since I can only buy a Cuisinart blender from Cuisinart No one's preventing anyone from building a better solution and making it available to consumers. Not a…
Ok, then the government should be doing it and investing to meet current and future demand. A private company (in a non-regulated market) can't be forced to do so.
Should they? Why should one private company be forced to build infrastructure for other companies that are intentionally dragging their heels? GM doesn't run gas stations It would be great if they could be altruistic to…
Tesla has not "monopolized" charging stations in any reasonable understanding of the word. They spent somewhere south of $1B to built their own infrastructure. Any other company could have done that, but they chose to…
What do electron fumes smell like? :)
The thing is, they're not "ludicrously expensive". Sure, Teslas and Porsches and Jaguars are, but you can also get a late-model used Nissan Leaf for under 10k, or a brand new Kia Niro for ~30k after tax credit. That's…
Yes, see this plot from IEA: https://www.iea.org/data-and-statistics/charts/comparative-l... This is as of 2018, and one would expect that the grid will continue to get cleaner as time goes on, which means the BEV…
In this case, "in and out of focus" is actually variations in the amplitude of the probability function for the electron density projected onto a single plane (to a first approximation). Sometimes the wave functions of…
Maybe, if you're unlucky. In all likelihood, you'll be asymptomatic and spreading it to a bunch of other people without realizing it (which is most of the reason we're in this mess). Then those people do the same, get…
That's pretty much correct. Single-atom imaging is possible using aberration-corrected scanning TEM, but the beam doses used will typically obliterate anything organic through radiolysis or ionization damage (although…
Not OP, but I built this, and have been pretty happy with it for the cost: https://alphacolin.com/ikea-standing-desk-for-22-dollars/
Same for me (same build and OS)
How do you manage the audio for your games? Do you use the newer audio sharing setup, or have you rigged something up in OBS, etc?
Surprisingly, this isn't really true (as far as noise is concerned). Noise pollution travels far, and if you're using sensitive equipment, you can easily pick up the noise of planes flying nearby at 30,000 ft.
CH is passed on! CH is no more! CH has ceased to be! CH has expired and gone to meet 'is maker!
Or it turns Jeff Bezos into the richest man in the world... Anecdata can go both ways!
Is that true for homeowner's insurance? As far as I know, the 20% rule is for private mortgage insurance (PMI), which pays to the lender if you fail to make your payments. Basically an added payment because with a low…
Moissanite is also synthetic (typically grown via a chemical vapor deposition process). It's not carbon (like diamonds), but made of SiC, a material long used for abrasives and more recently for high-power electronics…
Oh stop it. I encourage you to go for a test drive and try it out yourself. It works (in the conditions they claim it does), and it makes driving long distances or in stop-and-go traffic significantly easier. Dumb…
I thought this was a pretty well known practice. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2013/feb/12/monsanto... From my (admittedly limited) understanding, they would trespass on peoples farms and test their crops to…
I think the issue here is that the Georgia courts cite these annotations in their opinions, meaning that they effectively have the weight of law. If there is no de facto difference between an annotation and a law, why…
