I suppose for the absolute majority of use cases, much less SKUs have to be present at store with immediate availibility for purchase, and the rest could be ordered online with del…

>A phone could measure CO2 levels once every 10 minutes which would average under 0.01W, so that would work. Not sure about that, at least NDIR sensors have to be at certain elevat…

This feels very much like dithering. I am no expert by far, so I'm likely missing something.

Can't say I agree on where the pitfall of planned economy begins. As I see it, planned economy is strictly not a market, and it is not created as an intervention in the market. It'…

I suppose part of the problem with autolanding a small plane is that they have much less intertia and are much more susceptible to conditions. Large planes are autolanded in normal…

HVDC (and even the grid in general) doesn't transmit all that much power. The largest currently existing line - Changji-Guquan UHVDC link in China - transmits 12GW. It's significan…

Building bunkers doesn't help well-being, and you did state that wealth difference is also staggering, Albania did a ton of bunkers in their time, didn't really help them much. I'm…

Being flawed is not same as not being maxed-out. While not accepting flaws (serious ones) is a good thing, the problem is that people poisoned by social media do not accept non-max…

For a long time I haven't thought of Switzerland anything more than "expensive mountain Germany", until a couple years ago I've reconnected with an university friend who happens to…

Somehow the last sentence of your comment caught me as if there's something wrong with it. I don't thing it's wrong, but I think it should be generalised. Free market is an approac…

I suppose that rough-edgeness of the RTOSes is mostly due to that mainstream neglect for them - they are specific tools for seasoned professionals whose own edges are dent into sha…

I think that not just could, we should have had them. As far as I understand, neural networks were very hyped in 60s and 70s and when hype bust, they've fallen out of focus. Hardwa…

>That's constrained by the Law of Supply and Demand. Law of supply and demand works in the really free market, when providers are essentially infinitesimal and are not able to exer…

Plenty of cheap stuff is a consequence of companies interested in people's money and, yes, presence of at least nominal competition between providers (i.e. they can be essentially …

Still there are studies that regular sauna does decrease testosterone production. It's not hard to counter though, ice packs applied to testicles ( not direct ice, ice in a cloth) …

To fog up, it has to pass water molecules, which are way larger than gas molecules. I've seen only a few IGUs fog up, all of them had clearly visible damage, and they are ubiquitou…

EPROM stored codes for controlling video recorder - the card has IR receiver and blaster, you record t-e codes from remote voa receiver, then the card controls the recorder.

As far as I know there is no technological problem for BMW system to have whatever desired rate of adjustability and speed of reaction. It uses planetary gearset with adjuster moto…

Electricity is way cheaper at the poont of generation than for residential consumer. IIRC, solar now gets to about 3$ per Mwth, so purely energy cost would be about 0.33$ per kg of…

Wigig wasn't fast enough to be useful for wireless HDMI, especially given 4k displays arrived right at that moment, and 2nd gen WiGig it's probably way to expensive. The question i…

Screens don't provide stereo image nor focus distance the mirrors do, neither the displayed zone changes in response to moving your head. Afair, reviews of Audi's e-tron's screen m…

I suppose that true breakthrough would be a development of a plant or fungus "base" that would be able to create animal cells. So something like bamboo rhizome constantly growing a…

While I tend to agree, there's obviously jobs where familiarity with stack, tools and best practices is more important than engineering ability. They may not be interesting, but th…

I too favor the take-home tests for these reasons, however, there's a difference between a 3-hour take home and 300 hour one.

From a perspective of one once desperate for a job, the take-home test resonates the most. Market and approach to finding a job in IT sector seems to be somewhat different in Russi…
