This is correct, but it’s also, it’s only 100% of the heat at that point in the circuit.
Technically, using natural gas to make electricity, then sending that electricity to an electric heater would be less efficient than burning that natural gas for heat at the source.
So it depends on where you start counting from.
To what end?
Many people view “looks” with a strong filter of personality. So being active, funny, nice, kind, etc. would actually, really, make you look more attractive to people.
Dress well, stay clean, get fit, improve yourself as much as possible. But do these things to make yourself a better person, not with an ulterior motive.
Wow, never occurred to me before, but this is such an elegant, and simple solution.
Alicia Masters, The Thing’s girlfriend, is also blind, so they’d make a good thruple.
The seed is paying teachers more, and it gets watered with support from administrators and the soil is better safety nets for parents.
Nailed it right here. West was a perfectly good Batman for his time, but Keaton is fantastic and aged well. No one else comes close.
But rand() is a number between 0-1, so it will never be >10
Basically this is just #define True = False
The intent of the proverb isn’t that bad people don’t get good things, it’s that a person who is cheating doesn’t get value out of the activity.
If you go through life cutting corners, you don’t actually get to learn and build a strong foundation.
You can still be rewarded with jobs, money, and sycophants, but that’s not what really matters.
It’s a very visible thing when people do it. It’s not common where I’m from, but if 1,000 other people go to a store, then just one person leaving a cart in an awkward place pisses off 999 others.
It doesn’t take much to make it seem like a lot of people are being inconsiderate, when it’s much more likely that a small minority of people have a very wide reaching emotional impact.
Crazy thing is… that’s what Trevor Noah did as a youth in South Africa. Had a whole bootleg CD burning business until his setup died and they couldn’t get the files back.
So he turned his life around and became extremely famous in the US.
Yeah, looks like an electronics hoarder. Each of those things at one time had a purpose, but 90% of it is sitting there unused and needs to be discarded/recycled.
So, the biggest tech of 2023 is a bunch of promises of things coming soon?
Doomerism is very in right now, but lots of things are getting better. It’s hard to see through all the social media, but if you curate your feeds to things like science and educational information, you can see all the wonderful things people are learning and making.
Sure, there are a lot of selfish, shitty people out there making a lot of noise, but in the background, there’s the same great people just chugging along making things better.
Just chug along with them and vote for the people that align with your values, and do the best you can.
Like Mr. Rogers used to say, when you see bad things happen, just look for the helpers. The first thing that always happens after a tragedy, is people line up to help. It’s our natural instinct.
No, that would be an awful thing to do. You have to allow people to zealously defend themselves from any accusation. Also, in the US, the fifth amendment protects the citizens from being forced to testify against themselves. So punishing someone for pleading not guilty would directly violate the 5th amendment.
Pretty neat idea, hopefully the equipment needed keeps getting smaller and cheaper.
Right now it doesn’t make a lot of sense except for larger, or shared maker type spaces.
What in the world is this supposed to mean?
Can’t anymore, there are too many to give that much coverage.
I wonder if a 6.5mm would be within tolerance to be compatible with 1/4" plugs.
They could have saved even more by not putting batteries in them, or motors… Man, these things coulda had a way bigger profit margin!
