   I thought a second was a SI base unit: (from Wikipedia) The second, symbol s, is the SI unit of time. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the caesium frequency {\displaystyle \Delta \nu _{\text{Cs}}} {\displaystyle \Delta

   I'm not sure what the author is playing at, but I think at the very least he is trying to be a bit clever. His argument is based upon that forest biomass is shrinking and therefore forest are causing CO2 emissions: "When you add u

    Why bother? Because Python 2 is EOL in a little less than 2 years. The NHS chose not to upgrade to from Windows XP and 2003 and look where that got them last year: a massive crypto locker infection.

    MS Exchange on-prem does not include an anti-spam solution. You have to buy one like Symantec security cloud or MS Exchange online security. Exchange is not a 'hosted' solution. Gmail by contrast is only a hosted/cloud solu

    Honestly, the subscription model is more honest than a one time purchase pyramid scheme. Software changes over time. It has to, new operating systems, libraries and hardware dictate forward maintenance costs, nevermind bugs and security f

    Thank you all for the thoughtful replies and it seems to me that moving to electric transport is the way forward. I would like to point out that the article in the main was about China, where they are building out significant coal capacity.
