A huge problem with basic income is setting the level. Everybody gets a piece, so they will vote for the politicians promising to raise it. You won't be able to win an election without promising to raise it. It will keep going up, and up, and up, and..
This is the second article about WWII today. I wonder why. 'Refugee' propaganda not working? Add a little 'Holocaust' propaganda, that will make the goyim bow down before you... NOT.
Evidence found on this sub will indicate the Nazis were closer to building the bomb than we ever realized.
Its better eye exercise to be active outside, where your focal range is much greater and you are changing focal points much more often than when inside.
Unless you are making a bomb prop for a movie, there is no reason to have a big digital display on it at all. And for future reference, nor do you need different colored wires inside.
But would you entertain the argument that it could depend A LOT on what the iPad is loaded with?
To this point, I've not seen anything to convince me there are apps that make much of a difference. I'm sure there are some clever ones, but I've not seen anything yet that is any sort of game changer. My kid uses chromebook in school, most of the time it is for report generation and researching stuff on the internet. Some convenient methods to submit finished items to the teacher are nice, and help productivity, but are nothing you can't do on the home computer as well.
Lots of stuff looks impressive when you first see it, then you realize it is more flash than substance.
That I think is more like what you see in the studies that show doodling helps concentration. Its just enough extra work to keep the mind from truly drifting. I don't think its necessarily related to the technology you are using. I believe the doodling thing, I used to do it a lot during classes and meetings.
It certainly ain't broke, so we don't need to fix it. The system has been optimized over the years in fact, with most states following the same best practices. The risks and costs are simply not worth gong on-line or depending on OS security, its just another tech industry attempt to siphon big $$$ from the government.
As all you readers can see, DBIII is quite the fraud. I'm about to drop this and let him have his last word. Its not the first time he has denied facts when credible sources are placed in front of him. He never specifically addresses any information provided, and throws out generalizations and insults in a attempt to get some credibility.
One day he'll learn that I don't say stuff I can't back up. Till then I'll be happy to make him look like an idiot.
I think any solid engineer will understand my points, that you have to have a basis for things and simply saying them isnt' good enough. No meat on your bones, to this point you were not capable of pulling one source to back up any of your points. I suppose if you were in the industry you were forced out due to incompetence. Regardless of where you worked, you have proven that you really don't have a fundamental understanding. All my predictions keep coming true, you keep generalizing and provide no backup to your statements. It will continue.
You cant have variable output without runng below capacity, so your attempted correction is quite meaningless. Quite stupid in fact.
Actually the article it sourced specifically talks about tjose french nukes. Below capacity to meet variable load demand. The other article discusses the quite well know fact that German coal plant a run under capaicty for load follow. Your willful ignorance persists.
DBIII, it is still certainly not clear which part of this you do not understand, as you refuse to address anything specific, certainly not the behavior of a knowledgeable engineer.
The backfit required 53 instead of 48 rods, but could be done during any refueling outage; it allowed the 900-MWe plants to load follow from 100-percent power to 30-percent power
and
Completion of these programs gave the French a vast, versatile, and responsive fleet of nuclear plants that could operate realistically on the daily load cycle while still providing almost three quarters of the total electric generating capacity...... the French national choice to prioritize nuclear after the oil crisis in the early 1970s made the inclusion of load following on their nuclear plants an absolute necessity.
You also fail to understand what it means to address issues with engineering and design. You don't make natural phenomena just disappear, you design and engineer systems that minimize the negative impacts or make them manageable. In the case of thermal cycle fatigue, there is much that can be done to minimize the problems and operate large plants with load follow. I'd be happy to explain some to you if you don't understand, but I think you'd prefer to remain ignorant. I've provided the sources that show it is done, and even explains part of how it was done. The problems you have understanding what engineering can do, and also your problems with accepting things you don't understand or deny, is one that we certainly can't solve here.
So with that I'll leave you to post another generalized denial, with no specifics or sources, which will only serve to make you look even more stupid, if that is possible.
Try to understand what the text means in articles before linking to them!
It's not actually very difficult in this case.
You seem to have the problem. Worse, you won't even refer to the contents of those sources, take any quotes or address any specifics of it, you will just generalize because thats what trolls do.
At this point, you are just putting on an embarrassing display of generalizations. No sources, no specifics, nothing of any substance. You are making a fool of yourself, and the only reason I continue to respond is that I am happy to oblige.
I am an electrical engineer with many years in the power industry. You, on the other hand, are one who resorts to troll tactics and cannot back up anything you say. Engineers use sources. Where the hell are yours?
I see you are afraid to actually look at the source I presented. Let me help you. I'll try to keep it simple. Spinning reserve refers to capacity kept available to come on line quickly in case of unexpected loss of a generation source. Load following is variable operation of power output to meet variable demand. The latter is what is being described in the article I presented. It is quite clear, and your denial of it is very telling about who you are as a person...pathetic.
So, I expect you will continue your approach of generalizing and not specifically addressing the content of the article. I have presented sources that back up my point, you on the other hand just generalize and deflect. No sources of your own on top of that. You clearly don't know how to back up your argument with sources. And to that you won't get much credibility around here.
It doesn't back up your point at all because you've decided to use a technical term you do not understand, just to try to look cool, and you are using something completely different to "back it up".
In terms you may understand - you are calling the monitor "a computer" and calling the beige box plugged into it "the hard drive" and getting annoyed when being told it is not so.
That is why you are being laughed at.
No, you just threw in the term "spinning reserve' as a trollish deflection. A very transparent and pathetic attempt to deflect from the fact that you are clearly wrong. The source I posted clearly talks about French nuclear plants being used for load follow, it is quite clear and explicit "load follow" right there in front of you, multiple times. It it used properly and in the context that validates my point perfectly. That article does not talk about spinning reserve of French nuclear plants at all. If you think it does, then you don't know what that term means.
Benefits is not the only distinction. I don't know the laws, but there are things like working full time and working for (or providing service to) only one company that make it murky. If Uber drivers drove for other companies as well the case might be different. Also, Uber provides insurance, which might be considered a benefit.
Personally, I think if a person wants to be a contractor and sets up his own business, he should be a contractor no matter what. But the law seems to not operate that way.
I KNEW you would simply dismiss what clearly backs up my point. I knew it, you did just as I said because your are a predictable troll that can't back up his claims. You are willfully ignorant at best.
Your attempt at dismissal is your latest fail. Anyone who reads it will easily tell. You are fooling no one. How pathetic you are.

The hydrogen economy is, and always has been, a stupid idea. The cycle throws away two thirds of the energy for no good reason
You could have stopped there. This is just another energy storage approach, not an energy source.

Regardless of progress, the were certainly working on it. Good thing they were stopped.

You mean spending millions on Ipads doesn't mean we are progressing in education?
It certainly ain't broke, so we don't need to fix it. The system has been optimized over the years in fact, with most states following the same best practices. The risks and costs are simply not worth gong on-line or depending on OS security, its just another tech industry attempt to siphon big $$$ from the government.
But we do have the right to assemble pieces.
And, you could argue, murder would be protected speech if done to perform a scientific study.
As you all can see, DBIII cannot back up his claims, and ignores sources that counter them.
