Thank you, that puts it in perspective. Just to validate then, these barely moving electrons will create a field that induces a current on the electrons on the other side of the wi…

I had a question about the veritasium video, at some point they say that the electrons barely move, that confused me since that doesn't match my understanding of amperage, flow of …

I don't disagree with a lot of your above reply, but this part in particular picked my interest, mostly because I don't understand how its not racist. > They aren't saying "this ma…

When is tether org involved in this? From your example the only thing that happened is that now you hold x euros and Kraken holds x amount of USDT. Unless Kraken goes to Tether org…

I really don't like chord like shortcuts, while ctrl and [ are positioned in a way you don't have to contort your hand it kind of requires you to move away from the hjkl row or str…

I remember reading an article on hn that the rise of SUV's and their design is related to the increase of fatalities. Like, compare a pedestrian collision where the car has a lower…

Your problem with Vim is that you don't grok vi. [0] I agree with you that if you don't use a specialist tool 24/7 you'll be slow, but that is expected vi optimizes for expert user…

This seems great, so why does the article state: > It remains in use today for certain special cases but is considered controversial and some surgeons refuse to perform it. I imagi…

I would read that as the "red book in algorithms" this is probably because of the famous OpenGL red book, so now we refer to the "fundamental" book in an area as the red book. In a…

Also in Japan we just had record temperatures in the last 2 weeks. While summer is humid and hot in Japan I can't recall ever being this hot.

Was at the Kaigi and on the opening keynote Matz talked a bit about it. He doesn't really support adding it since he feels like in 20/30+ years, advances in technology will make wr…

There's a lot of care about not disturbing other people in Japanese culture. A few additional reasons, for wearing a mask, not in the article: - Forgot or didn't have time to put m…

I used to think the same but a little thought exercise proved me wrong, if you ask the question: what happens if the general datacap goes down, even maybe to 0? I'm from Portugal a…

I live in Japan for quite some time (multiple years) and never had to, or heard about, having to "register at local police station".

I'm Portuguese but far from knowledgeable in matters of energy. Going north from Lisbon you'll start to see many wind turbines while in the freeway and inner roads.

The graphs show the downtime even while the green was at the top. My guess would be that its just something that someone as to toggle.

I'm like this, without the extra added steps. I have 2500 unread emails in my inbox, I skim over what's new in the inbox and read what I want that's it, the important thing is sear…

I work at a Start up in Japan with about 10 people, we have: 1 Japanese, 1 Portuguese, 1 Brazilian, 1 Filipino, 1 Canadian, 1 Australian, 1 German, 3 Americans (although 2 of them …
