I'm pretty sure I can do a risk reward for rabies and have it come on top for the shot. You know, rabies having 100 % mortality rate. Flu, not so easy (and an ongoing topic of research) What's unbelievable? That someone with a gra

Ive had a bone marrow biopsy done. Those are done fully awake with no anesthetic except for the skin incision. You literally feel the push of the sharp needle cutting through your bone. Slowly. methodically. Half a millimeter by half millim

Well there you are! Good for you for writing that, and not the self-righteous snark I was replying to. The beauty of HN is that when someone doesnt know, or is wrong, we don't assume bad intent, but explain with good intentions at hear

But it's perfectly valid to question results that don't make sense, and the role of the supposed expert is to explain why it does. After all, off in a democracy an expert expects to be paid by taxpayers to make decisions that affe

Our resting metabolic rate is pretty high. Turns out livers, and brains use a lot of calories. But the value of exercise is that you form more capillary structure to oxygenate blood

@tlocke But that isn't a mathematical expression. At best, it would appear to be energy * maximum_Carnot_efficiency (for heat engines anyway) But it seems not to be adding very much, since Carnot efficiency depends on delta_(T). The OP

What is exergy? The one time a mechanical engineering colleagues tried to explain it to me, he reached the wrong conclusion on the problem we were working on. I haven't seen it in any physics thermodynamics book, and only mech eng. see

They weren't worth it. Their only advantage is they can cool below room T, but then you have condensation problems.

Because Peltiers are, at their most inefficient 100% efficient? At a reasonable delta T you can get 200% efficiencies.

That's a question of mass and power.

"that is, it produces 35 W of cooling per 1 kW consumed." No, they don't. First, without defining a delta T, efficiency is meaningless (unless its a Carnot cycle). Second, the efficiency is (depending on op. point) higher t

COP has to be compared at the same delta T. The COP of a loss less refrigerator is infinite at Delta T = 0 And you dont get to stack Peltiers to increase COP, only to increase delta T. Still, Peltiers are super cool and I have some ideas fo

And yet my friend's parents managed to pick three up. Btw, his birth mother was alive until five years ago. He found her through 23 and me just months after she'd passed.

Social norms are not objective truths. Social norms include racism, sexism, antisemitism, etc. Openly disagreeing with the in-group cannot be nonchalance, almost by definition (if you don't care, why bother having an opinion?), and it

I have two problems with EVs: - I believe they're more immoral than ICE vehicles. They're existence displaces batteries for hybrids (yes I did the math) - They're not practical for me for my use scenario. I have kids.

That's beautiful about your uncle. Becoming a well paid classical musician is very rare, he must be very good; your grandparents did well. When I was in undergrad there was this 16 year old street urchin (for that's what he'd
