This didn't pass my sniff test. Each of the three key ethics; "Earth Care", "People Care", and "Fair Share", only appear once in the document. I feel like that is a clear rhetorical failure. "Fair Sha

I think there are two key imperatives that lead to company "psychopathy". The first imperative is a company must survive past its employees. A company is an explicit legal structure designed to survive past the initial people in t

FWIW, i think their description for the radiation shielding is fine. Your analysis is off. If we assume the spherical case, the mass of the shielding is proportional to surface area, not the volume[0]. You might be confusing general radiati

I think other have already corrected you, but radiative cooling is probably the least common on the ground and the only viable option in space. I can help explain why. On earth, we are surrounded by stuff. Radiative cooling relies on therma

Passive cooling refers to "passive radiative cooling"[0]. This is a well established technique, but I have doubts on how well it will scale with the heat generated by computation. Radiative cooling works by exploiting the fact tha

You may not have intended it as a "flex", but you are teaching your children to be snooty. If they have "never" eaten a school lunch, they have judged the lunches based on appearance rather than substance/flavor. I

I think this application of Berkson's paradox is misleading. A physician can be expected to have a high medical aptitude because of training, not filtering. Medical degrees are not withheld from people with low medical aptitude and giv

The equivalent of safety squints for your hearing would be conscious control of the tensor tympanic muscle. As with safety squints, I don't think there has been much study on the effectiveness. https://en.wikipedia.org/

That is not how a balance scale works. The two sides balance, because the weigher makes them balance. That can be done in a vacuum, air, or water. The trick being described has the weigher balance the scale in air, with unknown mass A and s
