replies: text: You'll have to ask the people who invented the internet. But consider this: computers use binary numbers, which are based on powers of 2. Using four bits (binary digits), we can represent any of sixteen numbers, in the range 0-15. Each number can represent a single colour. The type of computer graphics displays that were around in the early days of the internet used four-bit colour values, so were only capable of showing 16 colours at once (see Enhanced Graphics Adapter). To allow for just two more colours, we need two more numbers, so we would need more than four bits. This did happen later on (see Video Graphics Array), but the original 16 colours were left alone. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 11:24, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

message: Dutch naming conventions state that the first prefix always begins with upper case, unless it is preceded by the given name.  E.g. Mister De Boer but Jan de Boer, and not Jan De Boer.  2nd and 3rd prefixes are always fully lowercase. 
It's all well and good that you have discovered the prefixes are part of the surname, but please apply the rules correctly. Writing prefixed surnames starting with lowercase is considered very ignorant in Dutch.  Please note that Flemish naming conventions might differ.

It can be seen for example by simple dimensional analysis: if all the scales (lengths, energies, entropies) in a system are multiplied by a factor α then the new solid angles of the system will be multiplied by α^2/α^2=1, so they are intensive.

thread_title:  mechanics 

message: At the World FreeFall Convention starting in 1992, there was a 727 and later a DC-9 (from Skydive Perris) for one day of the event.  The 727 was a cargo config, usually from Amerijet.  The air stairs were removed on the ground.  The top 3 or so steps, which are fixed, were covered in plywood, and the hydraulic cylinders were covered with padding for safety.  The inside door was closed for takeoff and opened as the aircraft came around for jumprun.  Many of us who jumped the jet (7 times over 5 years myself, including once with a skysurf board, and a few thousand other people over the span of a decade at least) get asked about the Cooper vane, and some people who hear about it even claim that the story is fake because the Cooper vane prevents opening in flight.  They seem to miss the point that the stairs were removed in preparation, so that defeats the Cooper vane.  Cooper vane was probably removed too, since it would stick out a few inches into the path of the exiting jumpers.  There are many references, in print, and photos and videos on YouTube.  Not sure if this is worthy of addition to the article, but I'd love opinions/votes.  Thanks, and Blue Skies!  Titaniumlegs (talk) 12:11, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Found poetry

message: From the Guardian
"In our profile of Daniel Dennett (pages 20 to 23, Review, April 17), we said he was born in Beirut. In fact, he was born in Boston. His father died in 1947, not 1948. He married in 1962, not 1963. The seminar at which Stephen Jay Gould was rigorously questioned by Dennett's students was Dennett's seminar at Tufts, not Gould's at Harvard. Dennett wrote Darwin's Dangerous Idea before, not after, Gould called him a "Darwinian fundamentalist". Only one chapter in the book, not four, is devoted to taking issue with Gould. The list of Dennett's books omitted Elbow Room, 1984, and The Intentional Stance, 1987. The marble sculpture, recollected by a friend, that Dennett was working on in 1963 was not a mother and child. It was a man reading a book."
