    I got 22-33Hz on an AMD Ryzen 7640U on power-save mode and 50-55Hz on performance mode.

    I wonder if some of this will reverse once more electric cars are available on the used market, which are cheaper to fuel and require less maintenance. Already some of the explosio…

    I think it doesn't have to be insecurity. I drive a Hyundai Kona, and have no particular desire for speed or performance; I'm happy for other people to have sporty, fast cars even …

    Adding onions, non-cheese dairy, bacon, chives and/or udon noodles to carbonara sounds delicious. If I am cooking for myself, I care more about that than fidelity to traditional It…

    Happy to say that the electric car I drive checks every box!

    Well, yes, but the courses I've taken for the computer science portion of my degree feel much more like math or engineering than science; experimental/empirical verification of nat…

    I'm in Mudd's class of '27 (and I was on the honor board for 2 years), and I do think the honor code system has gotten somewhat less functional over the time I've been here. But I …

    Wait, why can't the students be punished?

    50% of the human population will at some point in their life have periods, perhaps; but presumably (due to childhood and menopause) less than 50% of the human population has recent…

    Is Kantian morality popular in Germany? I admittedly know few Germans but they do not seem to be especially deontological in morality.

    Wow! This is really impressive! I kind of want to try some project like this sometime, but I wouldn't even know where to start...

    Should the Spanish government decide what is "misinformation"? Should it be forbidden to read false or misleading statements on the Internet?

    Green cards are for permanent residency, so it makes sense to me that someone would live in the US for 30 years with one. That seems very different than spending over a decade in t…

    Without court approval, no one under 16 can get married in any US state.

    I would prefer to date an averagely-physical-attractive person whom I enjoy spending time with than a very physically attractive person whose personality I dislike.

    Hm, 57% of first marriages not "failing" (presumably meaning that they last until one spouse dies) actually seems kind of comforting? It suggests that you and your spouse don't eve…

    The population of East Germany in 1990 was 16 million, while the population of the UK today is over 4 times larger at 68 million. (I still don't think the UK should jail people for…

    I'm 20, and I vaguely remember using 10.5 or 10.6 when I was a young child, so nostalgia I guess?
