except that if you want to be strength equivalent, in the case of aluminum/steel you need to use a greater volume of material- so in this case aluminum part of equal strength (and possibly lower weight) is stiffer than the steel part.
Young's modulus alone doesn't really tell you much about actual application without considering the other properties of a material.
Darts stabilize their flight with fins and bullets stabilize their flight with spin- the fact that these 'guided' darts manipulate the fins to change the trajectory seems secondary to them being darts.
I would think that their worst nightmare is nobody coming to their store at all. Consumers are an impulsive bunch and I think the group of people that are willing to wait a week(s) and deal with package delivery to save sales tax is actually pretty small- and then what about impulse buys of other items they see in the store?
In the case of my 20$ throwaway cell phone the manufacturer has little margin that could be used to improve the conditions of the workers, but in Apples situation they have HUGE margins and instead of thinking different they have the ability to actually do so.
Tariffs would do this too and are a large part of our US history. Tariffs are sanctioned by the WTO if your trade imbalance is >10%. So why don't we do it?
"According to the head attorney representing the plaintiffs, the total damages could exceed $150 million if just 10,000 entry-level engineers were affected."
Dreamweaver is useless for production code because the HTML it makes is junk- if you want to make any adjustments to the HTML you have to do it all over again in Dreamweaver because the source is very difficult to edit- and then you lose any changes that were made directly to the source.
It really depends on what you are doing- if you are working on a regular pattern and doing basic database IO, then I think code can be self documenting. If you are doing complex algorithms or transformations comments can be very helpful.
I have to wonder about what they would come up with if they ever did a similar analysis of the bacterial exposure of a job like working on a dairy farm.
I think a better model would be to change ticket prices depending on availability, cost would go up as the seats diminish. Someone that 'just wants to see a movie' won't clog up a newly opened blockbuster while there will be a seat available for a rabid fan, even though they would pay more.

Time for someone to start an open source college/university
Me first!
...Except that by the virtue of being able to grow shoots in the correct direction, the patch of grass can 'move' in such a way to remain alive.

More importantly, it is so thin it is transparent!! ;-)
Except that in this case, because it is an ACTIVE ingredient AND toxic the association is valid and not hype.
Sounds like you are backpedaling.

Sure we could compete by repealing all of our labor and environmental laws- what is your suggestion?
Sounds more like a dart than a bullet.

I call bull on this one.

Perhaps because Apples products are obscenely overpriced?

I've noticed this too- messing around with something (and failing) fills your head with questions and the lecture is much more informative.
What isn't urban legend is that distilled water tastes bad.
"According to the head attorney representing the plaintiffs, the total damages could exceed $150 million if just 10,000 entry-level engineers were affected."
How do you poach entry-level engineers?
Trade imbalances are a mathematical problem, not a political one.
I think they were suggesting that if the winds changed and the plume dissipates then melting would accelerate, probably due to the change in salinity.
Weird- I am from NJ and pretty foul-mouthed, but I have never once in 15 years felt the urge to put profanity in my comments.

This may be true but the article would have been much more interesting if they had included the range of declines for the various groups.
Pure isopropanol has the ability to dissolve plastic and is absorbed much more readily through the skin.
