This isnt exactly new. This is a obvious and predicted effect of ECE Theor. I'm surprised that neither the article nor any other commentor mentioned it yet. tl;dr on ECE Theory: Gravity is a curvature of spacetime, electromagnetism is

Skimmed the patent. Its 99% a pedantic and exhaustive explanation of a linear motor. The only interesting thing they mention, is this: The inertial mass of an object varies with the variation of its magnetic field and therefore a variation

My second favorite Johnny story is how he did the math for the explosive lenses on the atom bomb, overnight. What we now call partial derivatives, was not yet rigourously proven and studied, but he signed off on it, and it worked. For the s

You may not have a chance. If you did, it would be: 1. Identify the manufacturer stock number for the battery (part number) 2. Investigate the market for said part (may require professional connections) 3. "Salt" your sales offers

Yep, you get what you pay for. They've started fielding systems that will handle extremes much better, but you dont get that kind of performance without tradeoffs. cascade systems, 200psi r600, 450psi CO2, refrigeration systems are an

Devil's take: let them die. Having drivers on the road who are not capable of following basic and obvious posted safety rules, is a hazard to everyone. They need to be "not driving" at whatever cost. Its probably not that exp

How to fix automotive repair: 1. The development and use of "rate books" is de facto price fixing. labor is a cost, and it has a price. Ban them by law. 2. Take the computers away from the engineers. There should be no ability to

interesting work here, worth reading through. This is backed up by Dabrowski's work, also. Perhaps "personality formation" itself is also a subconscious skill subject to overexcitation.

For reference and comparison, one of the other mental math systems is the Trachtenberg system. Soroban is much faster, but Trachtenberg is quite reasonable to teach people of any age.

The double entendre of "having studied Agrippa" in the footnotes is probably going to go unnoticed unless someone mentions it here. Contemporary to the cited Camillo Agrippa, fencing master, was Henrichus Cornelius Agrippa, whose

Finally. HFCS is a nightmare, I hope this is the beginning of the end. Farmers wind up growing trash GMO monocrops for ethanol subsidies and syrup money, depleting the soil and sterilizing the land. HFCS is a direct cause of diabetes, it ha

They've done this multiple times. See "100 Tons of Gold" for more. The Black Eagle Fund is also worth mentioning, the CIA liquidated Imperial Japan's SE Asian war spoils instead of returning it.

honest hard work, depending on the country. if you can cut it as a pipefitter or welder that will make you $100K easy. But its demanding, dangerous, risky work. welding for a living will ruin your eyes even when using the best available pro

Its not a failure to compete, its a refusal to compete. More important to them than profits, is control. The moment they start building out, advancing, and actually competing, they risk losing control over the product. They are getting exac

I live and work in a non-union state. There are still three or four relevant unions, because the work cannot be kicked down the food chain: Welders have about 20 productive years before they are legally blind. Electricians face constant job

Short term: Specialize in something robots / programs cannot do. Actual physical work requires dexterity and perception that robots wont have for decades. Medium Term: Form unions, parties, and other such legal bodies, get protections
