  1. How would you know if you had?
  2. Looks great, checking it out.
  3. You can look at multiplying negatives as subtracting the result the sum of your additions from zero. ie. -3 * -2 = 0 - (-2 + - 2 + -2) = 6 Multiplication of a negative by a positive is equivalent of adding the same negative number to itself. ie. 3 * -4 = -4 + - 4 + -4 = -12
  4. You could probably pull photosynthesis off artificially. Has to be catalyst based considering the temperatures that would be otherwise involved. ...searching... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_photosynthesis#Current_research yeah, looks like research is moving along at a decent enough rate.
  5. Yeah, I've definitely gained a new perspective on the matter. I changed up my routine yesterday and additionally went to sleep as soon as my schedule would allow. No repeat last night thankfully. I'm honestly hoping this is a one off. I'd blame the Aliens
  6. May just see a change in who is employed in that industry rather than a sizable change in total numbers.
  7. Finally happened. Result of an ever so delightful combination of sleep deprivation and job stress(moved up a rung). Came to, part way and was almost entirely paralyzed. At first I had the idea that a group of unknown teens were nosily moving around the house. Then that mysterious doctors were going to do an unasked for procedure on me and I was somehow entirely immobilized at their mercy. Seemed to finally grasp what was actually occurring and actually managed to recall my own advice and moved the tips of my fingers. Wasn't much but feeling the fabric beneath them calmed me down and/or I became alert enough so I could pull myself out of it. Have to admit it was pretty dang frightening while it was happening. I recall at least the idea for doctors was the result of sensory input from the eyes, a circular 'flash' reminiscent of the medical lamp used during examinations. Was an interesting experience but not really hoping for a repeat.
  8. Engine efficiency problem is vastly simpler from an engineering standpoint. With cancer you are at war with an evolving problem, looking for malfunctioning components mixed in with a vast number of nearly identical components, dealing with malfunctioning components co-located with vital components and dealing with the natural defenses often hindering the repair/removal of malfunctioning components. Assuming government action wasn't distortionary though and you are talking about whether society as a whole values health treatment to the same extent as it does engine efficiency. Generally my experience is that society focuses on the most immediate concern. We could wipe out most diseases in a few generations through little more than worldwide mass quarantine, but we're not likely to do so.
  9. Is there anything you wish to discuss in regards?
  10. http://delcode.delaware.gov/title16/c050/index.shtml This is what I'm guessing you ran afoul of.
  11. It all depends on your definition of a box... Give me a chance to dig mine out, I put it away in storage.
  12. Are you wanting to keep your result normal via eliminating the imaginary bit? That's the only other option really.
  13. and IMF's position is much the same as here, that additional debt relief is necessary rather than 'just' another loan. http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/scr/2015/cr15186.pdf?hootPostID=2cd94f17236d717acd9949448d794045 At some point you have to talk about forgiveness or you could well face a total loss. Restructuring gives the best chances for repayment. Even at the consumer level this is often utilized. Note that the UK government is already taking action in regards to the usage of ESM funds. May or may not be an issue.
  14. People with 10 foot long arms feed each other.
  15. Possibly you mean the Hendo? That variety is real enough but has nothing to do with quantum locking. It didn't look especially practical for regular use last time I glanced at it(which was about a year ago now). Carrying around the energy supply adds weight which increases the energy demand.
  16. If you ever see anything totally mind blowing online, Google it and add the word "fake". However, yes, superconductors can allow levitation. Maybe someday yet we'll have our hover boards. http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/solids/maglev.html#c2
  17. People earn money. Governments alter the quantity/value of money. Taxes reduce the quantity in circulation. Inflation reduces the value of money in circulation. Governments would regularly reduce their debts by printing money. This is what countries on the Euro can't do alone however.
  18. It will convert arbitrary values into the range arccos is looking for. 123456 / 106 = 0.123456 -123 / 103 = -0.123 # of Digits to left of decimal = ⌊log10(|x|)⌋+1 arccos(x / 10⌊log10(|x|)⌋+1 )
  19. Can you do: Y = Your value DY = number of digits in Y Arccos(Y/10^DY) ?
  20. Operation Infinite Reach was one under Clinton. Retreating Iraqi troops set fire to the wells. Honestly we could destroy the support infrastructure with less environmental and health issues. Plenty of ongoing fossil fuel fires, we don't need to create more.
  21. For every problem there exists an Engineering solution
  22. Time dilation has also been observed in high velocity Muons, no man-made clock necessary. http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/relativ/muon.html Basically more reach the ground than "should" given their short half-lives. They are taking longer to decay from our frame of reference. Likewise from their frame of reference the distance to the ground is less.
  23. What I'm not seeing why you can't just pull a 1 out and multiply, as it wouldn't change your final result.
