That was my thought - maybe the chemists wishing to measure billionths of a kg should be counting atoms/molecules instead. if we can all agree that pi is 3 then surely we can come together to agree on Avagadros number.
I actually feel a little better that this kind of public information is out in the open rather than being purchased only by the parties. Maybe it will drive greater participation in democracy and may expose shenanigans where perhaps publication is selectively withheld or delayed by whoever is in control of the elections or even help identify voting irregularities.
In that case the pentagon staff can just glance out the window occasionally - save the taxpayers the expense of having staff reading facebook all day (or maybe they were reading facebook all day anyway so this may be no additional expense)
According to the CPI The price of a cheeseburger went up from 80 to 81 cents in 1993 and then down to 78c in 1994. If you saw a 25% increase in your area it sure wasn't widespread
I'm not sure I disagree entirely, but I have a bright high schooler in my family, well ahead of grade on math / calculus, certainly not struggling academically and when he got the chance to do the coding class he did not go for it.
I suspect he considerered it to be combination of boring or irrelevant, or the pacing was wrong or the homework. In any case, I think it would have been better for him if every class had included some aspect of coding and the coding class had been a purer CS (data structures, oop, functional, embedded, logic, whatever helps them meet the other classes).
I think there would have been straightforward ways to make 10% of the score for Math, Physics, Chemistry and Biology based on writing some simple code to search some data or simulate motion of something etc.
I have a revolutionary solution that uses no energy and produces water from the atmosphere but I don't deploy it to cold or dry places, only places where it is raining.
Maybe isotropic would be a better word to use to describe the charge distribution. It is apparently not isotropic for all of its properties though, at least once it has interacted with something to determine spin and feels the need to maintain precedent (maybe it's high-court judge shaped).
I read recently that a submerged acoustic device could make ripples that could be detected on the surface from the air. I have to wonder if ripples from an underwater acoustic device could be detected by satellite and processed to provide an image of the bottom. Even if it is very low resolution it might be enough to detect large-ish undersea mountains. Maybe seismic activity could be the basis for some of the disturbances measured.
It does sound like it needs a re-negotiation but as well as China getting too good a deal out of it...
Does the US benefit from it too, if we withdraw how does that affect our ability to send items abroad
The Chinese get a good deal compared with domestic postal rates in the US. Maybe postal rates in the US are also too high
if the last mile is the costly part then maybe it's time to look for a cheap way to address that. For some items I would not mind waiting 30 days for them to cross the US and having to go pick them up from a downtown location if it meant that the shipping costs were really low
In future movies he will just stay inside the suit, some kind of malfunction will make it impossible to use the inside camera or to get out of the suit.
Morse code must be pretty optimal otherwise it would not have lasted so long, maybe something with one or two keys/touchpad areas could be made simple enough to work without needing phenomenal dexterity. I have heard that 50 words per minute is achievable, it only need to go as fast as I can think (which is not that fast)
I always thought that a reasonable definition of common sense was the set of rules you fall back on when you don't have sufficient specific knowledge to address the issue at hand. For example, you may not specifically know how to repair your car, so common sense tells you to seek help from someone more qualified.
As you say, there is no common sense that can be applied to plants and sunlight, you either know about the process or you don't. A system applying common sense would defer to a botanist or refer to some reference material to improve its skillset or some other such thing
Now that's not to say that you can't infer from other data that perhaps it takes more energy to produce O2 than C02 and guess that the light might be such an energy source but at this point you're falling back on specialist knowledge that it either has or it lacks

My thought entirely, they'll make a movie about this.

Generally speaking about 30% of the cost of a restaurant food item is labor So if labor costs go up by 15% it seems unlikely that would mandate a .25% price hike to break even.
If you have facts to share, please link to them.

Surprising nobody, the person sending bombs to Democratic politicians, supporters, and media organizations is a virulently pro-Trump terrorist.
Apparently it came as a surprise to those who promoted it as a false flag operation or asserted that republicans just don't do this kind of thing
Sometimes a vow of silence in the workplace would really improve things.

Sounds like a niqab shop next to the chik-fil-a at the airport might be profitable.
I'll bet there are in fact many prestigious and well funded events about repairing people

Get congress to act. If they can reduce the size of their library to, say,500Mbytes, then 300 LOCs will fit on a thumb drive. Problem solved.
My god, I hope 30% of the workforce turned out to be an integer number of people.

They will achieve compliance by making all the chips orange.
Exactly, and how is an improvement over CAN, I2C or SPI - let me guess, more royalties...

Outlook handled that feature badly, it makes me want to read an email more when I get a message saying that the sender wants to retract it.
And did the google legal team really put their name to something discoverable ? I thought they hated to leave traces like this...
Don't men have an X and a Y ?
Or maybe Paul Erds, whatever; the connections always leads back to one of them...
