Languages change over time. As long as the intent is clear, don’t get hung up on what is and isn’t “correct”. “You’re welcome” probably was seen as extreme at some point itself.

The variety of actual polls on each President is very odd. Apples, oranges, and fish?

Absolutely, although isn’t a major job for the VP to handle international affairs, which this definitely is one?

I just wish we had other choices out there. I’ll vote blue and persuade others also because the choice given the voters is bad politics as usual, or insanity. I can vote for Biden/Harris and still hope (with much doubt) for more progressive actions from underneath.

Better is a very relative term. A ramp up to a hothouse Earth will be better for exotherms to spread out more. Doesn’t work well for most other species still here now.

If it was just humans that were impacted, then I’d be sad about the lost potentials we may have had, but be fine with life going on for the rest. The crime is that we’re dragging down just about everything else with us.

When they name a new policy rule after you…

Polls are polls, but just the fact that there is still any conversation at this point says a lot about the state of the country.

From the point of just moving the charge, yes, it’s called antimatter. Antielectrons are positive, antiprotons are negative. From the mass point of view though it would be a different kind of physics altogether since electrons have virtually no mass compared to the other two particles, and protons don’t exist as a particle-wave duality, so neither protons or electrons would act the same by just switching them out in a Bohr atom model arrangement. Maybe someone with more in depth knowledge can give additional or better reasons.

Police are trained to drive at faster speeds for obvious reasons, but even they need to limit such higher speeds to the same constraint of reaction and vehicle performance times. I’ll be positive and give the benefit of the doubt that he did try to avoid hitting her once he saw her (if he saw her at all), but I can’t imagine anyone being able to react nor slow or swerve in such a setting if it was like most 25 mph zones I know of. People speed through our 25 mph subdivision at 35-40 mph and I’m just waiting for the day someone gets clipped.

I’ve seen this same suggestion years ago on Blender tutorials. Generating a scene isn’t about making it realistic, it’s about fooling the audience into thinking it’s real without making it too hard to create. Look at videos from Ian Hubert on how to fake it well.

There is a solution.

I remember when there was just one. I wrongly dismissed the cartoon as not real Star Trek for a very long time, I never realized how good they really were.

True of many things we take for granted now. It would be a different world entirely. Another non-computer example would be the 3-point seat belt that Volvo left as an open patent, saving countless lives over the past decades.

Or a different “feel” when turned on vs. off (more resistance or something). They spent effort printing all that text to show where the switch was when a universal 0/1 would have made it clear.

I can’t think of any example of a button or switch that by itself can be clear if it is engaged or not. A button could be assumed to be on if in, but that isn’t always the case, like for example with emergency stops.

In areas that are prone to earthquakes, not really. This isn’t one of them, so it’s unusual and worth a report and determination of the source. A 4.0 at the epicenter would feel different farther depending on the material too - most of Florida wouldn’t transmit the energy well and slosh around a bit, unlike some bedrock that can carry the energy much farther. My real question would be if this is a natural cause, can there ever be a potential for seafloor movement that would power a tsunami (I don’t think so)? That would be far worse than the actual ground shaking for Florida coastline residents.

Age is a factor, but the real problem is voters being given only two choices, or even only one in the case of an incumbent without primary competition in the party. I would not want someone shut out simply because they got past an arbitrary mark of time, as there are plenty of sharp and even progressive old people, as well as some dumb regressive young ones. It’s how good of a pick they are to lead the country, and right now we really don’t get that choice in a vote. So until we do, we have to pick the less destructive version, which is the obvious Biden who is questionable in many respects and yet still far more aware of reality. And not an established criminal, fascist, and racist.

Some of us “essentials” pretended that nothing was going on at all and kept going to work because an actual shutdown of core parts of society would have been a total disaster. I’m totally for WFH situations where it makes sense, but some jobs require a physical presence even in a pandemic, otherwise the wheels stop for everyone.

Sprinkle a few drops of water in hot oil, or even just on a oven burner. See how it pops? Now imagine a lot more suddenly going from ice to vapor. It’s explosive, and some hot oil is going to be thrown out on anyone in range.

Some native Floridians now dismiss a Cat 4 as not as big deal as a Cat 5, not realizing the very small wind level difference. Adding a 6 would let them downplay a 5. My own stance is that once things start getting picked up by moving air, it’s all dangerous and should be prepared for and avoided.

Plus, most deaths in a hurricane aren’t from the wind. They’re from drowning from flood waters. There’s plenty of eyewitness videos now on the internet for anyone to be aware of the seconds it takes to go from safe to shit, but people will always think it only happens to other people.
