I am left-handed (as is 1 in 10?), new UI really makes it unusable: dock and buttons are at the right side instead of being at the bottom. And given the selfie camera position, I really doubt there is an accessibility setting to mirror the

There is nothing “advanced” about this. It is just cooling the air below the dew point. Same water tray and a hose for water condensate.

Suppose you have 27C with with 65% humidity. Due point for that air is 19.8C. Meaning it reaches 100% relative humidity at this point. If cooled even more, water condensates from air into droplets. — What this means: if you cool that air to

Cooling the air by definition raises the humidity :-) Dehumidifier mode in AC works by cooling the air below the dew point, removing the condensation, then warming the air up (either by itself or literally heating it up)

It is mumbo jumbo (also people hearing “significant” treat this as “effect/change is large and important” which is in no relation to the actual amount of change). Low p-value basically means how surprising your data would be if there w

It makes sense alright. The qualities that are needed to grind the algorithms, system design, and what have you have a nice correlation with success later Perseverance, diligence, sheer will to grok the somewhat boring shit. Even writing so

Are there actual measurements that even show this deoxygenation? For example, I clicked on the random link in that paper (referenced as a proof of river oxygen decline) — the article was not even based on some actual data log but fucking de

What would be the number of reentries in the near future? 5-20 satellites daily? At first glance, it seems negligible. On the hand, given the intentional nature if disposable low-orbit, 20 more than ideal.
