So, if I’m reading things right, anything that runs on Z-Wave or Zigbee will necessarily run locally, because those are mesh protocols?

Anyway, thanks a lot. Those are really simple keywords to check.

I’ve been looking for some smart outlets, and it seems impossible to discover which ones can be used with normal well-known protocols and which can only be used through a phone app locked into a cloud service.

other nuclear powers may respond with non-nuclear weapons on the US

No country will respond with non-nuclear weapons to a country nuking another for no reason at all. That’s just asking the US to nuke them too.

If countries respond, it would be with nukes.

You are saying that the error messages terminate at some point?

It is printing money but it’s different.

It’s letting the banks print money, as much as they want. When the government go and prints the money directly, the banks also print some, but at least the government gets a small share of it.

That’s the way most business operate.

The US declared every country where a pipeline could pass from there to any large consumer as an enemy and has been trying for half a century to destroy them.

Running the code again is fast and requires no thinking. Finding the problem is slow and requires a lot of thinking.

It’s worth looking under the light-post in case your keys somehow rolled there. Just not for long.

motivation for learning the skill

I mean motivation for why somebody cares about the idea at all, but I think that is less strict so yes. A hole in theory or something emerging from an activity are perfectly fine. But there has to be something there.

Peter Liljedahl

So… From the publications, looks like he uses problem solving, not “having students actually think about math”.

You want students think about what exactly if you don’t give them an application?

Anyway, thanks, I’m listing his work as evidence supporting my claim.

The fact that this is becoming the most known quote from that mission is amazing on several good and bad ways.

Apparently knowing people learn differently and that mathematicians are a tiny minority is neoliberal…

unless their sun was the same temperature as Sol and their planet the same size as earth

Most other animals see different colors than we do, and they live under a star of the same temperature as ours, and in a planet with the exact same atmospheric composition.

The image is literally about the kind of thing the aliens would have in common.

You can decide on a language from that, but you will have to write down the definition of every word too.

When I got to asking “WTF does naturality even means?”, I decided to reread your comment from the beginning…

The amount of words in it that almost nobody will know the meaning is amazing!

Or every time society invents a time machine, the world ends and somebody has to come back and sabotage the effort. So humanity hits a wall in progress that it can only pass by not focusing on time-physics.

If you are talking about school curriculum, nearly the entire population will keep not learning it as long as it doesn’t have some practical application so people can understand WTF the teacher is talking about.

Are extensible records usable already?

Not that I would pick TS because of that, but the disdain is undeserved when it has some very useful features that Haskell has been trying to copy for years.

The amount of energy absorbed by the cars is the same for both drivers. (What makes that car existence a risk to both parties.)

The problem of the old car is that it transmits the extra force to the people inside in some of the worst possible ways.

Yes, the 70’s car would “win out”. Its driver, on the other hand would fare much worse than you.

Ideally, people wouldn’t treat possibly fatal transit collisions as a sports game. And also ideally, most people would see the uselessness of looking at which car is less damaged. Realistically, I know neither of those are universal, but I do hope they are common.
