I could follow you until you menationed 'smart'. The autists usually are mega smart. And being a diva does not make you unsmart, by definition. And on a side track, perhaps you like to watch the french movie 'Diva' once... a masterpiece.
Sensei, I'm in programming mere 35 years. I know about 30 languages and program in 5 right now fluently. What are the shortcuts you are talking about and the gotchas, please enlighten me!
Considering your signature, I think you talk about America. I write with my hand once a week minimum, albeit I usually write in capital letters. I bought a Lenovo Yoga Book last year to have a nice tablet with two wacom digitizers. Many of my frineds are asian. They write with a pen every day.
Americans, sorry to say it so simple and bluntly: a country with no culture losing its remnants of culter it still has, or had, day for day, and then having the audiacy to impose that non culture on the rest of the world, and niw it is hand writing. You don't even realize what a loss that is. The craft alone...
When I'm in a foreign country I can write a question on a piece of paper... as soon as people lost the art of writing they are not really 'people' anymore to me.
Your answer to the question of active/passive shoud/could have been this:
The reason for the distinction is mathematical: You can use certain mathematical approaches to solve the equations of a device that contains only passive elements, while the same approaches would not work with active elements.
But obviously you don't grasp the topic so you can not explain youself:)
Nevertheless, thank you for the link (I hope the information in it is correct, as I'm not interested enough in researching it).
The fact here is however on a different level. We are talking abbout computer science and not 'electric engineering'. So a memristor which keeps its state after losing power is considered passeive, just like a magnetic disc. The opposite as in 'active' is a DRAM, which you have to refresh every few milliseconds. You can grasp that?
So: I have no clue why you guys argue about active/passice school room knowledge. Where you obvioulsy don't have knowledge beyond any memorized simple categorizations.
Hint: a inductor is not passive. It induces a magnetic field equivalent to the change of current. Obviously the quoted paragraph above from stack exchange, has a different definition was active/passive means. Facepalm. How should I know that? Lucky that I do not live in a country where I would be required to memorize such bollocks artificial categories:)
I agree with that. In france they even lowered the bar to become a 1st and 2nd grade teacher to be a person who has raised a child to school age. Of course that is only for simple stuff like the french language and math.
The slaughter usually was civilians, not armed forces.
Albeit Iraq behaed extremly stupid in not allowing soldiers to flee the battle field, especially in air attacks. But the germans were similar dumb when machine gun attacks on trucks came common.
It is astonishing how less common sense commanders often have.
and competition and innovation will push us toward the lowest cost way of doing it. You still believe that myth?
It worked wonders for the american fast food industry. For housing/rent in the center of NYC not so much. Neither for health care or student tuitions...
Most bills in the long term go up, they don't go down.
Since the late 1970s exhaust of coal plants are scrubbed. So they exhaust no radioactivvity at all. Amd we basically nevver knew how to dispose of nuclear waste from nuclesr plants. But if you know a way, publish it and farm in a Nobel Prize.
Disposing PV panels does no environmentsl damage. They are mostly glass amd the metal is recycled, or would you throw away metal that you don't have to refine but can just melt? Production has no real environmental damage either. The dirty chemicals are recycled and reused and the raw materials are basically: sand.
At 27C at night my AC would ne off, and most likely at 35C during daytime, too. Can't be so hard to have a building that stays around 27C - 30C without need for AC.
Just to nitpick: thr fact that we can not measure the present does not mean that the future is not deterministic. The particle you measure will go where it goes, unless you measure it. Then it is going where your measurement is deflecting it to.
If it was backed by TAXES I could exchange my currency for TAXES... no idea if that makes sense. Or could exchange my TAXES for currency... that makes even less sense.
Get fucking clue what "backed" means and stop such bullshit posts: backed by PAY TAXES WITH IT.
Backed means and always has meant: the issuer of the currency is hording a physical good. And I can exchange the currency for that good at my disposal. That is back.
Fiat currencies are not backed, that is why they are called FIAT. If they where backed they would be called backed currency. It is as simple as that.
There are enthusiastic teachers with great results but you have to expect them to burn out. There are teachers that just teach facts and basic stuff instead of principles and concepts.
But there are also school systems problems. E.g. in Germany correct spelling, especially of foreign languages is so over rated, a person that had B grades in England or France would have a D or even E in Germany. Well, that was at my time. I have heard it has improved, but never checked it.
Consider this: you are supposed to write an english 5 pages work (a test) about the differences between English Rugby and German Soccer. You can have a perfect essay but with 5 typos per page you get an E.
Most teachers in my schools "cheated" and awarded for spelling mistakes only half an error point. The transition from a language like german or italian to a language like french or english is just to big. In German nearly everything is spelled like it is pronounced. And that already leads to many spelling mistakes that could be avoided if there would be an easy way to proofread your own text;D
Anyway, good teachers *grasp* why/what the student is not understanding. And then adjust and give a different metaphor or analogy.
I never ever had a student who did not learn what I wanted to teach him/her. Many of my students in private coaching jumped from D and E grades to B's in a course of 4 or 6 weeks.
Right now I only teach martial arts... but brining a student who was a brown belt for 5 years to black belt level usually does not take long. I simply "understand" somehow at what exact point they are stuck and bring them beyond that point.
So I think some great teachers are also just great because of personality. My math teacher in university Prof. Harro Heuser was such a guy. He was not really talking about math, he was a kind of German philologist. You always wondered if he studied the wrong topic or if you are in the wrong class. Never met anyone who was so fluent in German without looking old fashioned.
These kids have 4 years of touchscreen and keyboard skills before they go to school now and we're teaching them to use pencils? Because otherwise they never really know how a character is written. They have no piccture in mind where to start and how to draw the lines.
Btw: why should handwriting be dead? It was once considered an art. And sooner or later everyone will have to sign something. Better he is able to write his own name somewhat properly, or not?
We actually did writing exercises from 3 on in kindergarden, but except for e's and l's and kinds of a's and o's it wheren really letters.
On the other hand I really wonder what the guys publishing this expect? If kids don't draw/paint with pencils anymore, obvioulsy they have lower skills when entering school. I guess they just overemphasize the problem, if there is any, instead of simply adjusting the way how they teach.

When the exhaust of a coal plant is scrubbed, it has no fly ash.
Next question?
And why the funk do you think nuclear waste is first of all stored in cooling ponds? Where else would you store it?
No idea about Yucca mounten, though ... but also no idea why you want to produce nuclear waste and deposit it there when you can have clean renewables.
Not prerequesites, preparations for school.

All the stuf you consider hazzardouse stays in the plant. ... what was your point?
So
And silicon PV cells are not thin film PV cells.
Get a clue about the topic or stay out of it.
The slaughter usually was civilians, not armed forces.
Albeit Iraq behaed extremly stupid in not allowing soldiers to flee the battle field, especially in air attacks. But the germans were similar dumb when machine gun attacks on trucks came common.
It is astonishing how less common sense commanders often have.
Forr an actor he is extremely convincing with any martial art, too.
Please enlighten us: how does an eBook stored on my computer gets deleted and/or secretly edited?
Usually you can bike in snow just fine.
What special kind of snow do you have at your place?

I'm not sure, but I think I learned that in 7th grade, thank you for the fresh up.
Did you answer to the wrong person?
P.S. non of your explanations has anything to do with active/passive (for me at least ;D )
No it is not backed by that fact.
If it was backed by TAXES I could exchange my currency for TAXES ... no idea if that makes sense. ... that makes even less sense.
Or could exchange my TAXES for currency
Get fucking clue what "backed" means and stop such bullshit posts: backed by PAY TAXES WITH IT.

If they where backed they would be called backed currency. It is as simple as that.
Yes, and?
I came not up with that stupid active/passive talk that emerged in this thread.
And why would an inductor be "passive"? Why would anyone declare single electric components as either active or passive anyway?
Bottom line it is always the teachers.
There are enthusiastic teachers with great results but you have to expect them to burn out.
There are teachers that just teach facts and basic stuff instead of principles and concepts.
But there are also school systems problems. E.g. in Germany correct spelling, especially of foreign languages is so over rated, a person that had B grades in England or France would have a D or even E in Germany. Well, that was at my time. I have heard it has improved, but never checked it.

A few weeks ago I watched this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
So I think some great teachers are also just great because of personality. My math teacher in university Prof. Harro Heuser was such a guy. He was not really talking about math, he was a kind of German philologist. You always wondered if he studied the wrong topic or if you are in the wrong class.

Currencies are relatively stable under normal circumstances because ... and are backed by something.
Please name one backed currency.
I know of none.
What is wrong with all you guys today?
Memristors are *passive* because they keep their state when you switch the power off.
Thats all ...
