Actually, I'm a very stable genius.

I'm pretty sure I can do a risk reward for rabies and have it come on top for the shot. You know, rabies having 100 % mortality rate. Flu, not so easy (and an ongoing topic of rese…

- Adjuvants. As a materials researcher I think it's nuts we inject nanoscale alumina in our blood. - Regulatory structure. Why can't I sue a vaccine manufacturer? Limit awards, if …

Rewind back to the '21 and Id say we were at-least 10% of HN.

Ive had a bone marrow biopsy done. Those are done fully awake with no anesthetic except for the skin incision. You literally feel the push of the sharp needle cutting through your …

That was sarcasm

"which is if there’s no compelling evidence, it’s safe to say it doesn’t happen." I call BS. Until there was compelling evidence that antidepressants cause suicidal ideation it's s…

Why is it reasonable for operational security? They're not Israeli satellites!

1. Scholarships 2. The top 10 were once top 10 000

You asked why there's only one company, not what would be good.

Small market

Roads in the US have more space and homes in the US are more flammable

Well there you are! Good for you for writing that, and not the self-righteous snark I was replying to. The beauty of HN is that when someone doesnt know, or is wrong, we don't assu…

But it's perfectly valid to question results that don't make sense, and the role of the supposed expert is to explain why it does. After all, off in a democracy an expert expects t…

Our resting metabolic rate is pretty high. Turns out livers, and brains use a lot of calories. But the value of exercise is that you form more capillary structure to oxygenate bloo…

The Game Genie allowed you to explore past levels you were stuck on.

Careful! Wothout a heatsink they'll easily self destruct (solder on the PN junctions)

@tlocke But that isn't a mathematical expression. At best, it would appear to be energy * maximum_Carnot_efficiency (for heat engines anyway) But it seems not to be adding very muc…

What is exergy? The one time a mechanical engineering colleagues tried to explain it to me, he reached the wrong conclusion on the problem we were working on. I haven't seen it in …

They weren't worth it. Their only advantage is they can cool below room T, but then you have condensation problems.

Because Peltiers are, at their most inefficient 100% efficient? At a reasonable delta T you can get 200% efficiencies.

That's a question of mass and power.

"that is, it produces 35 W of cooling per 1 kW consumed." No, they don't. First, without defining a delta T, efficiency is meaningless (unless its a Carnot cycle). Second, the effi…

COP has to be compared at the same delta T. The COP of a loss less refrigerator is infinite at Delta T = 0 And you dont get to stack Peltiers to increase COP, only to increase delt…
