That could be a different navy concept if surface carriers go extinct. You could have submarines and (possibly submersible) seaplanes, and submarine-launched UAVs.

It's a bit like how people believe markets are self-correcting. Yes, only over an infinite time horizon, in theory. Edit: and like chemical equilibrium, you could say it depends on the "rate of wrongness production" compared

Blue light also probably has more dispersion (aka chromatic aberration) .. I wonder how the eye deals with chromatic aberration, if we just filter it out by processing or if the system doesn't really suffer from it? Edit: or perhaps th

Warm oceans, as they are, would surely bring rain? Hence why the UK is so rainy. The ocean is warmer than the land, it's like warm water in a cold room, you get the moisture coming off it. If the ocean isn't warm any more, I recko

Generally speaking the more important an issue is, the less it is allowed to be affected by democratic processes. That's why Brexit was such a big upset, it bucked the trend (the management miscalculated, nobody expected the result and

It's a very clever trick: a refrigerator without a compressor which uses heat as the energy source. It could run on either a gas flame or an electric heating element. There are three working fluids (butane, water and ammonia) and it wo

The internet has a big "dogs barking at each other through the closed gate" dynamic. People are much more rude and aggressive to each other from a safe distance.

It's the same process either way, and the first few percent are the hardest (as it's super dilute so you need to handle a lot of material). It's much easier to go from 20% to 90%, than it is to get to 20%. https://

If there isn't much movement, it's probably a modest increase in bitrate anyway as the codec will see that most frames aren't changing.
