Ha! Excellent
Ha! Excellent
Best part is pipe hammering is a thing. Hehe
I would propose that this scale is not absolute, and negative envy exists.
On a somewhat related thought: There was a star trek voyager episode about using the findings of some war criminal to perform life-saving surgery.
The doctor ends up deleting the information in the end after the surgery and I always thought that was a seriously stupid take.

To me, even if information is obtained via awful means in the past, preserving knowledge is the far better choice in all circumstances, other than in the rare occasions where it will continue hurting others (not even sure when this would be the case).
And obviously upholding moral standards for research now and in the future.
Ah I see, many thanks!
Wait, Hades, specially part of Greek mythology, is part of Christianity too? And death?
The rest of the world would like a word. Do you really think only you people in the US exist?
Also the equivalent for psi is Pa (=N/m²), usually as kPa or bar (100 kPa).
Most people don’t really understand either to a great extent, and are just familiar with one or the other.
As always though, metric wins because of its interoperability with all the other metric units.
Something tells me this isn’t going to fly in Australia, unless they’re willing to be giving out refunds for bricked phones.
Thank you. This is such a breath of fresh air. In all cases I prefer a simple answer, when organising an event with multiple people where I want to get ideas on numbers for planning.
• Yes - great! See you there
• No (with or without a reason) - fantastic! We’ve all got our own stuff going on or reasons why we don’t want to go!
• Maybe, with a reason why, or when you would be able to give an answer - cool!
• Maybe, with no further explanation - ugh. I’ll just assume you’re not coming and don’t care.
Maybe with no explanation is the cowards way out. Especially when “no sorry, I’m busy!” is the standard white lie.
“No because I don’t want to (don’t feel socially up to it)” is the hero’s response and I salute you 🫡
I’m an engineer (a non-IT engineer) and have 4. There is so much ensuring consistency between drawings and documents. I’d like 5 (including the inbuilt one) but graphics card on my high performance company laptop says no.
At least one for file explorer, then other three could be pdf editor, or word, or excel, or internet browser.
I regularly have 4 drawings open, plus another reference, plus windows explorer for file management.
It’s never enough. I could totally do with more than 4 screens, I’m already squeezing multiple drawings onto one monitor.
This comment made me realise I don’t really know where the border between particle and molecule is.
Pretty sure fragrances are mostly giving off volitle molecules, rather than particles.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I’d argue that while we are much more diligent than other countries, and regulations are much stronger. The average person doesn’t pay nearly enough attention, and the fact the UV index isn’t required to be mentioned on weather reports, or as prominently or more prominently than the temperature, is a big oversight in my opinion.
I check the UV every time I go outside (other than when it’s died down over winter), just as you’d check the temperature, and I think it’s wild barely anyone else does.
The sun is still awful here, the ozone hole is still a thing.
But thanks world, at least I can go out for a solid 4.5 months of the year without worrying about the sun at all, and 6 of only needing to be somewhat careful. Not too shabby :)
Chiming in with barely any knowledge on the topic.
Universities are massive institutions, with serious cash behind them. What the hell is stopping, say, all the public Australian universities just setting up their own journal, running it at cost for all the universities in Australia?
Make it make sense.
