So TL;DR, 1. Any substance that has most atoms covered by Fluoride are 'PFAS'. 2. C8 is strictly speaking PFOA (by-definition). 3. C6, and all other acids that has similar chemical…

PFAS is short for 'Per- and poly- FluoroAlkyl Substances'. The Teflon that's used on your pans, which are 'poly-' materials, comes in extra long chains (hundreds of thousands of mo…

Let's just say Windows 11 is a complete different OS compared to Windows 7 lest 10. That's still not counting Windows 11 being a new OS every couple of months, packed with brand ne…

Bear in mind that "any two high-dimensional vectors are almost always orthogonal".

I believe they clear out the launch site within a few kilometres so nobody gets hit by random concrete debris or just melt away, literally. The control centre is probably invitatio…

i'd prefer the term 'less experienced' but yes.

Most of those devs back in 2011 were rookies, and many still are now. It would've been lucky enough for them to have even heard of the word 'asymmetric encryption'. And you can sti…

While it is most proper and convenient to use these out-of-the-box products for fit scenarios, Doing so will at the very least not help us with our interviews. It will also restric…

One can already see the beginning of AI enslaving humanity through the establishment. Companies work on AI get more investment and those who don't gets kicked out of the game. Thos…

Say some gigantic piece of function has 600 lines of code that does logic this, logic that and logic this and that. Suppose one day your PM goes into your office and request that a…

Legislation states that the lease is automatically renewed (40yrs, 50yrs or 70yrs depending on how the land was purchased) for residential housing, but there have been rumours sayi…

+HPSquared For total value it's up to 80%, and when comparing to income you can borrow up to 50% of the (before tax) monthly income, for up to 30 years.
