There is a growing movement of 'baby sign languge'.
I watched a couple teaching their daughter. The communication level after about a year and then increasing to about two years old was amazing. (Afterwards it could speak)
What if a conscious Turing Machine (program!) needs 5000 years to formulate the start of a sentence 'If...' in his 'mind'? How would you realize that it is indeed conscious?
There is a british lady who is into research of animal intelligence.
She is teaching parrots and aras to speak.
Not only learn they around 800 to 1000 words, they also invent their own words.
It goes so far that the older ones correct the younger ones with sentences like: speak more clearly!
Actually modern research suggests that most swarms of parrots and similar birds, that include crows (not so similar, yes) use a public language, that everyone understands (like 15 - 20 words) and a tribal/family language with about 100 words.
Parrots who never meat each other introduce each other by name. Yes wild living parrots have names. We just don't know if they evolve as nicknames or are indeed given by the parents.
And before you yell [citation needed] google for it,/. is not a peer reviewed journal and this post is not a scientific work...
That does not say much. The cat likes to hunt the dot. The toddler wants to have the toy of his daddy.
There are plenty of youtube videos showing cats 'hunting fish on an iPad'. It does not take long for them until they turn the iPad around to check the other side.
Most cats lose interest in the iPad game sooner or later, they realize: they never get a fish.
(gas turbine does still have a presence for the next few years as a fast response base load assist) Perhaps you want to look up the term base load And what a fast response power plant is. (Hint: the latter is called balancing power plant or depending on grid topology: reserve power plant (secondary reserve))
Efficiency is not the queestion. It is likely far over 90%. Regenerative breaking obviously only 'generates' energy when you break. It only improves range over a car/bus that brakes similar often but uses ordinary breaks only. Bottom line a bus that never stops, goes farer than a bus with regenerative breaking that stops often. A no brainer. With regenerative breaking we can mitigate that 'loss' and probably reach 90% (or more) of the distance a bus would reach if it never braked.
Buses that go so long distances usually make 45 minutes break somewhere so passengers and the driver can eat, go to the bathroom etc. That is plenty of time to recharg to minimum 75% of a full charge, provided the infrastructure is available. Which will be available pretty quickly, or the bus makes it stop 100miles earlier or 100miles later.
Just to join the pedantics:) The original deginition of Fahrenheit was: 0 is the coldest temperature you can get in a slat brine (makes some sence, as it is a stable temperaturre for a long time) and 100 is the average human body temperature (makes some sense, too)
Why they changed the upper end to 96, you can find on the Wikipedia article, I francly forgot:)
If you run it inhouose as appliance... what exactly is insecure then? What security flaws does 7.1.2 have? I'm not aware of any... but not important, as I'm likely now less than one promille of the iPad traffic:)
A pad is not a computer. If you want to compare apples with egs, then compare Windows X with Mac OS X or macOS.
Then again, there is usually no urgent need in the Apple world too upgrade to the next OS version. I deliberatly run my 17" Mac Book Pro on 10.6.x IMHO the best OS X.
I doubt hat most hyperloops will be underground. But yes that would be a worst case scenario.
Well, I'm always amused about people using statistics like: per miles of travel, the plane is the most safe transportation. Considering the amount of passengers going per plane and the miles they make versus car e.g. Of course such statistics are half bollocks. Planes by definition go long distances. I guess if you simply would ignore the distance and just start and stop, it suddenly does not look that good for the plane anymore.
Anyway, I can understand, if you are reluctant to use one. The brother of my ex GF, had flight panic. He obviously did not know that before his first flight. He got restrained. Afterwards he did all long range travel by bus and ferries.
Bus traveling, even in europe, is the most dangerous, in terms of dead per person and mile...
I hate the ribbon. I never used tool bars, I use the menus or shortcuts. Toolbars simply need to long to show the tooltip to indicate what an icon is doing... takes sometimes minutes to get the functionality you(I) need.
You won't agree to a common view of thermodynamics Your "ideas" regarding Thermodynamics is not a common view. At least not amoung scientists/physisicst. No idea what you learn in american schools, though.
Basically every time on/. someone takes refugee to the laws of Thermodynamics, the explainations and references he uses: are wrong
In my view you have already disqualified yourself as knowing anything about the topic being discussed, yet you make confident assertions of same which are simply wrong. If you think so:D
Funny that you think the physical laws about steam engines have any relevant application in electricity etc. except for running a steam engine to create electricity.... rofl.
You. Can't. Breathe. That is nonsense. You breath with the muscles of your Torso. Not via a pressure difference. At least not as long as you are not diving and your torso is compressed by water pressure and you need a pressured tank to _press_ air into your lungs.
Regarding the Hyperloop I have no idea how a breathing mask will work. After all it needs to provide air in terms of _liters_ but not _pressure_.

It's just that some newborns have very limited awareness and understanding of what's going on around them.
FTFY.

Cats most definitely self reflect.
If you had lived with cats for a long time, you knew that.

Yes.
And how likely is it that such a failure is not detected in time?
You probably could build into the car to use ultrasonics or induction based checks on every ride.
And all that wont happen if you only use it for inhouse appliances.
That actually was invalidated a few years after they had market qualities, something like 45 years ago. ...
But the myth is still strong

You think you can not breather if there is low or no pressure, that is nonsense.
But should change my year old sig :D

Depends on the quake.
And on how "quake safe" the whole construction is.
People might take precautions or not build them in quake zones.
You. Can't. Breathe.
That is nonsense.
You breath with the muscles of your Torso.
Not via a pressure difference. At least not as long as you are not diving and your torso is compressed by water pressure and you need a pressured tank to _press_ air into your lungs.
Regarding the Hyperloop I have no idea how a breathing mask will work. After all it needs to provide air in terms of _liters_ but not _pressure_.
When a hyperloop pod looses pressure, there's no place to run.
And that is why exactly like in an airplane the car has pressure masks for the riders.
You can also get 100 and 200 bills from ATMs.
It is just less common.
