You don't make the case out of CNTs. You put them in the plastic to make it (much) stronger. A composite material. The carbon fibers needn't be "nano" to work well though.
So the code does work it just gives wrong results: i.e. that 27C is COLD. If he'd said that below 7C was cold, I could go along. Personally, I'm pretty comfortable sleeping at 10C.
His comment was not nice, but you could have avoided it by not calling yourself a physicist without further explanation ("high-school physicist"?). But to answer your question, diagonalization was a mathematical technique that Georg Cantor used to show that the set of all real (rational + irrational) numbers is larger than the set of all counting numbers, even though they are both infinite. They are different "levels" of infinity.

Well,
I've already got a $3000 horn. I'd like one of these. But I've gone way off-topic now...
Heck, I don't really have the kind of time I need to play it enough to make it worthwhile. But it would be fun. My own [horn]pipe dream.
in the store where I was buying a HDTV. You had to wear heavy glasses hardwired to the set (so they were the switching type, not polarized), and they had a demo of some skydivers playing that looked OK 3d-wise, but not very sharp. I didn't inquire as to the price. How much programming is going to be available?
I don't disagree with the interesting mod, as you bring new info - could be just "informative" too - but I think your interpretation of the GP is wrong. He specifically mentions the *initial release dates* of all the browsers, and makes no reference to the latest Safari, or to any versions at all.
If you can get a sample size of 10 that is representative of a population of 60,000,000 people, you'll have a pretty accurate survey. The reality is, that's not possible in most cases.
No, it's not possible in *any* case. If you have a sample of ten people out of a sixty million, and they are *representative* of the sixty million, you *did not* get them by randomly selecting them. You knew about the population to begin with, and chose your sample very carefully to "represent" it, and it will still be a coarse measure. The sampling standard deviation is proportional to the square root of the sample size. No way around that.
Thank you. What was real strange was someone else objecting that this sample size was too *large*, and that TEN should be enough for any kind of statistical analysis.
Actually, if he's a manger, isn't he rather likely to be eaten out of by livestock? Or perhaps have a ceramic baby Jesus put in him at Christmas-time. Either option doesn't sound enjoyable to me.
$10,000 would make me very happy for a short time, until it was gone, which would be in a very short time. On second thought, if I could convince my wife to let me spend it on a new horn, instead of on paying off debt, I could be happy for a long time, as long as I got to play it.
Just read a couple of news stories recently about two young ladies in th UK who separately won the lottery. One invested and made wise choices, but the other, as happens often with lottery winners, blew her millions quickly and has little to show for it, and as I understand it, is not very happy now. Just anecdotes, I know, but they fit in with my worldview, so I tell them.
Based on other uses of the term technologist, I'd guess that it means someone with a two-year degree in a computer-related field, but I didn't see the context, so I could be way off.

How did it let you down? I used to love HP calculators and had several. I still have a 41CX and a 48SX but I don't use handheld calculators anymore.
You laugh, but I understand that unhealthy gums can lead to heart disease and that brushing and flossing can prevent it.

It's a joke and all, but one of the useful properties of solder in electronics is that it is conductive as well as adhesive.
they left out "Warp" on one of them?
Who's we? Winnebago is a brand of RV. If they do make trailers, it's not what they're best known for.
Yeah, especially the hand horn players.

Insoluble in the context of chemicals means "cannot be dissolved".

Why would it not please them...if they are rational?
But maybe the answer is contained within the question....

How is this insightful? Do you understand what makes lasers different from really powerful flashlights?
So you should be rewarded for an oversight? Nay, nay.
Oh noes! A snarky, unfunny joke criticizing someone else's typo escaped my notice as being an attempt at humor.
Thanks for the correction and elaboration.
