This is correct, but it’s also, it’s only 100% of the heat at that point in the circuit.
Technically, using natural gas to make electricity, then sending that electricity to an electric heater would be less efficient than burning that natural gas for heat at the source.
So it depends on where you start counting from.
To what end?
Many people view “looks” with a strong filter of personality. So being active, funny, nice, kind, etc. would actually, really, make you look more attractive to people.
Dress well, stay clean, get fit, improve yourself as much as possible. But do these things to make yourself a better person, not with an ulterior motive.
Alicia Masters, The Thing’s girlfriend, is also blind, so they’d make a good thruple.
Nailed it right here. West was a perfectly good Batman for his time, but Keaton is fantastic and aged well. No one else comes close.
The intent of the proverb isn’t that bad people don’t get good things, it’s that a person who is cheating doesn’t get value out of the activity.
If you go through life cutting corners, you don’t actually get to learn and build a strong foundation.
You can still be rewarded with jobs, money, and sycophants, but that’s not what really matters.
You mean the USPS that can send a letter to anyone in the US, no matter how remote, for less than $1.
The USPS that has had its funding messed with for decades by Republicans trying to make private shipping the only option?
The USPS that is guaranteed by the Constitution to exist and provide services?
…
Yeah, let’s ditch this amazing service that provides stable union jobs everywhere in the US, and just let private industry take over, that works so well every other time we’ve done it.
The cat physics are also outstanding. You can tell there were animators just sitting there studying how cats move for many, many hours.
It’s a very visible thing when people do it. It’s not common where I’m from, but if 1,000 other people go to a store, then just one person leaving a cart in an awkward place pisses off 999 others.
It doesn’t take much to make it seem like a lot of people are being inconsiderate, when it’s much more likely that a small minority of people have a very wide reaching emotional impact.
I’m not sure if I should upvote this or downvote this…
Picard Syndrome
So, the biggest tech of 2023 is a bunch of promises of things coming soon?
Doomerism is very in right now, but lots of things are getting better. It’s hard to see through all the social media, but if you curate your feeds to things like science and educational information, you can see all the wonderful things people are learning and making.
Sure, there are a lot of selfish, shitty people out there making a lot of noise, but in the background, there’s the same great people just chugging along making things better.
Just chug along with them and vote for the people that align with your values, and do the best you can.
Like Mr. Rogers used to say, when you see bad things happen, just look for the helpers. The first thing that always happens after a tragedy, is people line up to help. It’s our natural instinct.
It used to be Google search without the extras.
No, that would be an awful thing to do. You have to allow people to zealously defend themselves from any accusation. Also, in the US, the fifth amendment protects the citizens from being forced to testify against themselves. So punishing someone for pleading not guilty would directly violate the 5th amendment.
They don’t say why the US hasn’t paid out yet, and the way it’s stated in this article and the linked article inside implies that it’s a failing on the government side.
With the significant delays and attempts to bring in off shore labor, it’s much more likely that the factory hasn’t hit the targets needed to receive the subsidy.
The government is using the cash as an incentive to build the factory, not just handing out cash for no reason. Just like the Foxconn factory that failed in Wisconsin, they need to hit milestones to get the money, it doesn’t get handed out upfront, otherwise they’d risk a company just taking the money and running.
What in the world is this supposed to mean?
I wonder if a 6.5mm would be within tolerance to be compatible with 1/4" plugs.
Damn, I was going to post this list, you beat me to it though.
I love that whole maths group, Brady Haran, Matt Parker, Hannah Fry, James Grimes, Ben Sparks, Ayliean MacDonald… (and so many more.)
As soon as I get a notification that a new Numberphile video drops, I’m watching it ASAP.
Ehhh… I wouldn’t go so far as to call him apolitical. I used to watch his stuff, but he’s drifted pretty right over the years. His stuff used to be pretty neutral, but since he started his book publishing, and the WWSD rifle project, he’s just been slipping right wing stuff into his content.
It doesn’t show up in the mainline informational videos too much, but his ad pushes and his side projects, which also show up on his main youtube channel, definitely have slid downhill.
They could have saved even more by not putting batteries in them, or motors… Man, these things coulda had a way bigger profit margin!
