And notice how we have those two different words - mother and woman? You can have words that describe relationships, in fact that is really good! You can even compound words or cre…

The streak of light generated by a small astronomical body as it moves through the atmosphere of earth (or another astronomical body).

For anyone else that might be curios, the definition of a planet you will often see quoted online applies to bodies in our Solar System. It comes from the International Astronomica…

> so why don't i just raise the cost to $100+$10000 where $10000 is the maximum the insurance will pay? Theoretically because you are not the sole provider offering that service an…

No, I am not being dense. From your continued lack of citations I am starting to assume there is no law stopping the RoK from enriching uranium (though I have been trying to find o…

Citation needed. I am unable to find any treaty that prevents the RoK from building nuclear submarines on their own territory.

I don't think any country has the right to demand that another country hands over enriched uranium and allow them to move into a shipyard so that they could build a nuclear sub. Of…

I am fascinated by the extent to which people can mentalize their different senses. I can visualize most of my primary senses. Sight would probably be my weakest one. I am definite…

I enjoyed walking through some of their docs which documented decisions and deliverables. Thought for sure it would have just been a dump of source code with little to no context.

Primary defense contractors. Lockheed, Boeing, Raytheon, etc.

As an aside, I've always thought of this when listening to discussions of technological advancement. I often hear the argument that in the early 20th century many people thought we…

Question - is watermarking legal filings even common? How about the law firm logos in the footer?

Honestly, none of those sound like blockers for the use case I and many other diabetics would like - monitoring for general blood sugar responses (rough curve) after eating. Sure, …

I see another misunderstanding then. With this method the actual probe would use nuclear material to melt its way through the ice. In addition, the heat of the nuclear probe on one…

I think our breakdown in understanding here is our concept of cables. When I say cable (and many others here) I mean fiber optic cable. Even with 25km of fiber optic cable it is ra…

Would refreezing break the cable?

I think indirectly it does. When your launch vehicle costs hundreds of millions of dollars to use once on a scientific mission you try to put as much engineering into the scientifi…

Correct, hence the need for the probe to unroll the cable as it goes down. If you had the roll on the surface, you would need to heat the whole cable to allow it to slip down.

Somewhat misleading headline. They plan to release a paid version of Alexa AKA Alexa Plus using generative AI, but testing didn't go well and they are trying to rebuild it using LL…

I don't think it should matter if 'systemctl start' was issued by an operator or an external script, it should try to start no matter what. SysD itself should use a different start…

I used to think the same thing until I started riding a motorcycle. I quickly came to the realization that the primary reason I was seeing less insects on my windshield was because…
