I initially was going to cancel as well - I don't care that much about the fast shipping, and if you hit the minimum order, you get free shipping anyway. But, it means 3% back instead of 5% on the Amazon visa, so if you spend more than

Can't live without this. The 10% of the time it doesn't work makes me sad. Super useful from cVim/Vimmium etc, I keep it mapped to 'gh'

If you rapidly cool the drink, you're definitely right - energy would flow PCM -> drink. Otherwise, it's semantic if GP is correct. There would be dynamic equilibrium, i.e. flow of thermal energy in both directions, but no true

In addition to the normal vaccuum insulation layer, it has a layer that does a (constant-temperature) phase change at ~140F. If your drink is hotter than this, energy flows out of the drink, cooling it and liquifying the layer. If you drink

You might enjoy the [Aharonov-Bohm effect]( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aharonov%E2%80%93Bohm_effect ). Quantum mechanics says we can in fact detect `A`. A similar effect exists for `phi`.

I find this plausible: .......... > The formula looks at the variables below, and then spits out a "number" for every Googler. Each PA VP gets a % to cut, and as such there is a threshold. Anyone below that threshold gets RIF&#

How are you not informed in advance? Every job I've had, there's a contract I sign in advance with all terms, and no addendum on day one. I'd think you could refuse to sign an addendum, and even sue for promissory estoppel if

I honestly forget. I don't think they were ever on probation per se, but it's not like SH was blindsided. There was plenty of awareness that admin was increasingly unhappy. What I won't claim to understand is what pushed them

Admin just doesn't care that much which speakers are allowed on campus. Like many progressive things students loudly champion, it's pretty immaterial and easy to just give in. It's not like it affects MIT's status or fun

What advantages do hydrogen cars have over ICE or electric? I know very little about them. Electric, optimistically, is cost effective (especially if you have solar panels) and convenient. ICE at least has industry momentum going for it. Bu

> How do I compute this function? For the kind of problems in physics 101, the Lagrangian is just kinetic energy minus potential energy: L = T - U. This is definitionally true; there's no "why" to that. Think of L as the f

I imagine it's a similar tradeoff - with more qubits there are more interactions, ergo lower coherence time

Sympy live shell is decent, and the latex rendering is pretty sweet. But, it's on ancient versions of everything, runs slowly, and has a C- UI. Instead, I use Colab with Sympy + latex output and matplotlib (and most other things you co

MIT OCW 6.006 talks about this (in much higher resolution than when I last saw!): https://youtu.be/TDo3r5M1LNo?t=2806 An optimal fingering for n notes played one at a time by an F fingered hand can be found in nF^2 time, or

Pixel 4a is as close as I know of, albeit 5.8" screen. $350 is hard to argue with, too.

I think the idea is that the steel/gas price changes would be disproportionate to their real carbon uses.

keyboard.io atreus? it's a novel layout, not just the standard rectangular grid, but very comfortable. available in a range of switch types.

I love my (three) keyboard.io Model 01s. Thumb clusters, palm keys, ortholinear layout, layers, arduino powered, extensive plugin system, and best of all, standard tripod mounts to which I have attached gorilla pods. (Also RGB, if you'
