Is this process generating the microplastics? If so then maybe it’s not such a great way to post process our litter.

Was on a Swiss train that did exactly this yesterday. To be fair, the delay originated in Italy (20 minutes late)and there was a minimal impact for people wanting to get to or leave from that city (Bern) as passenger on the affected train c

This seems like such a no-brainer. 3Blue 1Brown did a video on epidemic simulation, and central markets, places where people in the region congregate, are major factors in the the rate of disease spread. Limiting the transfer coefficient

Instead of a bailout, lets do a stock offering, with the government as the purchaser. This way, the government can sell it's shares later on and get the public's money back.

What's a morality rate? Is it a typo or an actual indicator? I found this: https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/population-development/tag/mora... but it seems to be a typo.

I came away with a very negative reaction to this infographic. I mean visually, not the data. Some how I come away feeling very underwhelmed. The embedded flags, which are at the same height, draw my eye and make it harder to gauge the re

Get a big board. You have more to and. Our feet don’t need to be within 2mm of the correct spot to get up and going. I made the mistake of learning on a board that was much to short (basically the same size as my roommate, who could actuall

I have been reading German novels on Kindle. If I don't understand a word, put my finger on it and in a few seconds I get a definition. Admittedly, only about 50% or the words I check are in the built-in dictionary, but it allows me

Switzerland is definitely not perfect in this respect but I see a lot of evidence that it’s a good option even if you are not a white mail, which I am (for context). First, my wife is an Iranian Born French citizen and she is now VP of Tech

Many in Switzerland would be happy if the CHF lost value. Of course, that's only true if we can somehow maintain the same level of trading rights.

One of the problems is that much content is not available via legal means in Switzerland because the media companies have not got around to it, so many will use torrents as it's the only way to get the content. If they completely bloc

Happy Gandi customer here. Price is fair, good docs for a smaller provider and friendly service.

I think the GDPR was enacted into law not to prevent cookies, but to prevent collecting data on regular people. This seems to circumvent the technicalities of the law but not the spirit. The risk is that they enact a new law that puts even

My son has many of your challenges and reading this helps put in perspective his challenges. I'm not sure what to do about him not 'reaching his potential'. I want to be understanding, but at the same time, I want to push hi

Modern power plants work hard at getting every last bit of that energy before it escapes. Current Combined Cycle plants, that generate steam from the exhaust of a gas turbine, are currently getting over 60% efficiency.

This sounds like Lance Armstrong's description of what lead to his doping scandal. The point is that it's ok to do it because everyone else is, until it isn't ok any more.

Things aren't likely to get better soon, particularly for lower- and middle-income households struggling to make the rent and become homeowners. This sounds backwards. If housing prices stop going up, won’t it be easier to make the jum

Actually, you can get about four single shaft combined cycle plants with a fairly large class GT. $2.5b seems rediculousely small for the task at hand, assuming that they will want to have power flowing to all of those newly connected house
