> Would a space crane be slave to the same equations?

No it would not, it has its own cross to bear, tensile strength.

If you start from the ground, then as the crane gets taller, the forces on its outer edges are the torque applied when a lateral force pushes against it (think wind). As with a stubborn nut, the longer the wrench handle the more force you can apply to the nut. If you think of the crane as your wrench handle, the taller it gets, the more force it will exert on its mounts when air moves past it. (this it true of sky scrapers as well).

Eventually you move past the point where there is anything that can stay vertical (steels rip and bend, carbon fiber breaks, Etc.) There is a working solution, a pyramid, but to build a pyramid that reached low earth orbit requires a base that is larger than the state of Kansas and will sink down to bedrock. There is an entertaining discussion of this from 2011 here: https://www.wired.com/2011/07/does-the-slope-of-a-pyramid-re... We know from the Himalayas you can stack up a lot of rock into a really really tall mountain, but its really really a lot. This might occur naturally on some planet, Olympus Mons on Mars is 16 miles high (about 85,000 ft or almost 26 km) that is 25% of the way up to space (assuming the 100km is your line for 'space'). Eventually you hit the limit which is that gravity prevents you from having a feature stick out too far from a sphere.

Another way to do this is to put a weight in geosynchronous orbit so it stays over the same spot all the time. If you start building a cable downward and adding mass further out you can keep the "effective" mass at the geosyncronous point. Eventually, (materials science not withstanding) the part you are lowering down to the planet reaches the surface and voila you have your jack and the beanstalk type beanstalk.

As fantastical as that sounds, it should actually work, if, and it is a big if, you can make a material that can withstand the tensile force of being both pulled up from the counter weight, and down by gravity. Once built you could attach a vehicle that would ride up and down the cable moving things from ground level into geosynchronous orbit, with only the energy needed to climb up the cable. These "space elevators" are not precluded by physics so they show up in science fiction stories.

But once you get away from building structures you are left with either chemical rockets or some how pushing against the Earth. Creative ideas there are balloons that take you part of the way up, and electrostatic systems that use an electric field to push against the charge on the Earth. These ideas start off far fetched and move right into crazysauce fairly quickly.
The author of the article thinks of it that way, but I have to think the article is written from a misguided premise. The Mint may publish those numbers in the form of a balance sheet as a novelty, but as far as I understand, they don’t govern the money supply any more than the Bureau of Engraving and Printing does. Their scope is to strike currency, and I would think the exact monetary value of it is immaterial to that mission.
The argument to share your source code extends beyond the argument that the average end-user can take that code, alter it and redistribute it. The bar for entry for contributing to hardware is not 'has their own multi-billion dollar fab center'.

I majored in Biology, with a focus in genetics and computer science because I wanted to go into bioinformatics. I could literally write 30 pages about why what you wrote is incorrect, and it would take several orders of magnitude more time than it took you to write out your hypothesis.

I provided resources for you to educate yourself. If you believe that it isn't a good use of your time, that's exactly how I feel about addressing the points you made beyond broadly saying 'this won't work, here are resources that address this on a level which you can understand.'

In this case 'almost no chance' is somewhat analogous to shuffling a deck of cards and finding them in order by suit and value, and then shuffling them again and finding them in reverse order by suit and value, and repeating that feat 10 times over.

The length of a human's telomeres when they are born is about 11k base pairs. Chromosome 21 is the shortest chromosome, and has 46.7 million base pairs. That means with random chance a mutation is 4200 times more likely to occur in the coding region of the chromosome than in the telomere.

Due to the way DNA Polymerase works, you will lose 20 base pairs of DNA on every replication. Ignoring everything about rate of mutations and the likelihood of insertion mutation, this means your chance of lengthening your chromosome through mutations is (1/4200)^20, or 1 in 2.6x10^72.

The odds of shuffling a deck of cards and having it come out in suit and value order is somewhere around 1x10^68.

That's using a best-case scenario as an example. Chromosome 1 has more than 5 times as many base pairs as chromosome 21, and you'd literally need to have this happen on every single chromosome every single time you had cell division.
You should be aware that many people stereotype vapers as being less intelligent, more impulsive, and generally trashier than non-vapers, similar to how those with tattoos, ear gauges, or other noticeable body modifications are stereotyped.

In other words, unless you're already a smoker, vaping is a habit you should avoid taking up, because it can have negative social and economic consequences for you.

And stereotypes generally (but not always) have a kernel of truth to them. For example, tattooed people probably are less intelligent on average than the non-tattooed: http://emilkirkegaard.dk/en/?p=5616

E-cigs didn't destroy the kid's market for traditional cigarettes, though. When I was in high school (right before vaping took off), smoking was only "cool" for a small subsection of the school. For everyone else, it was a stupid thing and kinda trashy. I'm guessing that the set of high school aged kids who would have picked up cigarette smoking if not for vaping is really quite small.

So, we worked for decades to eliminate cigarette dependency, made huge progress, and now kids largely don't smoke. And then vaping came along, and a company is receiving billions from investors to get kids addicted to nicotine.

Vaping is healthier, but I can't think of a conceivable reason why this is a good idea.

Maybe not as dramatic as we would all like, but it would be nice to see some work put into trying to revive the idea of the air-augmented rocket. Apparently the Russians worked on the idea in the 1960's[1]. But the PR-90 look like its as far as they got with the idea[2].

But maybe there won't be one dramatic change that makes rocket travel cheaper. Maybe we keep iterating on rocket and rocket engine designs and eventually looking back it seems revolutionary. As composites get better and better more and more of rockets will be made from composites instead of the current material of choice, lithium aluminum alloy. Plus the increased use of oxygen rich combustion[3] with it's improved efficiency. Also it looks like Ch4/LOX might be more common in the future[4][5][6], which is good because Ch4/LOX has a higher ISP then RP-1 and also is significantly more dense then H2 propellant. There's also so called "slush" or "super chilled" propellants[7], Spacex has even been using it for awhile[8]. So maybe the future will be extremely light, reusable, oxygen rich, staged combustion, methane burning rockets with super chilled propellants?

I never heard of this Jool-thingy before, but when I was smoking I switched to e-cig for a while and after a couple of month I had to stop altogether because one night I managed to smoke the equivalent of 2 packs of cigs in something like 4/5 hours.
After that night I didn’t smoke for 8/9 months I think because the effect that it had on me was so awful.
After some huge stress at work I started again and after a couple of years I finally stopped for good, I hope.
Now it’s 3 years that I don’t touch a cig or an e-cig, and I really hope that the new generation doesn’t fall on the new and glamorous nicotine trap, although I’m not really optimistic...

To get into a circular orbit with a crane you have to build a space crane as tall as the circumference of earth.

The tallest structure ever built by humans is a little more than half a mile tall.

A space elevator to geostationary orbit (required for a circular orbit with no rockets) would have to be 22,000 miles tall.

Low earth orbit is a lot closer, what is considered LEO is pretty wide, but the ISS is at about 250 miles.

If you get an crane ride up 250 miles, you aren't orbiting. You haven't even done half of the work, to be in orbit at that altitude means you have to accelerate to several miles per second.

How orbital mechanics works is not very intuitive.

Perhaps it is a way to deal with limitations of their brains. They usually have finite brains, which presumably have a limit on how much information they can store and organize and process.

Suppose you are an immortal working on some long term goal, some plan that will take a few hundred years to complete. It is a complicated plan and you will need to keep it all in your mind, along with its history as it progresses, in order to guide it to success.

If you try to lead an active life throughout all this, perhaps your brain will acquire too much irrelevant information, interfering with your ability to carry out your plan.

So you sleep for decades at a time, just waking up long enough to check on the plan, learn about changes to the world since your lest check, and make adjustments. Then back to sleep.
I believe you have it backwards: this is exactly why there is actually very little risk for the big guys to actually share their knowledge.

The financial entry barrier for building a fab is so huge that what in heaven's name would intel lose if they published the RTL for - say - their integer division hardware to show and teach the whole world how it's done when real professionals take a stab at it?

And if they're scared AMD might copy their integer division, why not publish the Verilog code from 2 or 3 generation old h/w? (and this is probably a bad example, I believe AMD and Intel are essentially done competing on stuff like that).

But what I am talking about here is basically unthinkable given the current culture in the EDA world: a person suggesting this inside one of the big shops would be committing career suicice.

Conversely, if you navigate EDA discussion boards a little bit, there is no end to the snarky or sometimes downright insulting comments made by big shop insiders about how lame and terribly inefficient the open source hardware designs published on the net actually are.

In other words: mocking outsiders are their ignorance instead of teaching them how to do cool stuff. That's the culture of the EDA world. Time for a change.

My understanding of Rousseau is that he had, as he himself said, a very odd personality, and rather than admitting that he would always be a misfit in society, he invented a morality and psychology that would support a political philosophy that would in turn produce the sort of society that he thought would make someone like him happy.

By the way, if you want to read about something bizarre from Rousseau's life, check out the feud he got himself into with Hume.

There's something creepy about a mother lacking enough oxytocin to nurse their own child, considering the emotions and mental state that such a thing would suggest.

Nonetheless, it's probably really common and normal, and likely serves as a vital check for the prevailing health of the population.

Which we now override by artificial means, because we can, and because the expectations for a social facade of parenting place a great degree of pressure to perform activities perceived as normal by external observers, as evidenced by my own comment.
One of the senior engineers I worked with at my last job was very picky about the difference between verification and validation activities. In testing, most design engineers will focus very heavily on verification activities which seek to answer the question "does what I built satisfy my design intent?" In contrast, validation activities seek to answer the question "did I design and build a thing that actually solves the problem?"

It's very important when you're building something that you answer both questions in your test activities. So you might write your Readme for your new project, and then as a validation activity before you build your project you shop your Readme around to the target audience of the tool and ask them if the tool sounds useful. You might also elicit feedback about how features could be more useful, or if there are other features that could be added.

From your Readme and your initial validation, you start an initial architecture of the system, laying out the pieces you think you'll need and describing how they will interoperate in broad strokes. Other developers can join you at this point, and knowing your architecture design and implement specific pieces of the tool. All design work references the Readme as a functional specification. And all of your verification activities verifies that the design was implemented and that the implementation satisfies the Readme.

As you're iterating and building new functionality, you integrate periodically and perform validation and verification against integrated versions of your system. And the verification tells you that you're following your Readme, while the validation tells you that your users indeed find the tool that you spec'ced useful.

The only real difference between Waterfall and Agile in this model is the cycle time. Waterfall has a very long cycle time in the specify-design-implement-test-validate cycle, whereas Agile has a very small cycle time. And so the chunks of the system vary in scope as well.
I thought it was pretty clear. Google has no data centers in China which means they don't subject their users to unfettered government searches of their data.
> Insert the contents of a file: :r <filename>

The file name can be a pipe instead.

Let’s say you have a Makefile based project and the dependencies aren’t as complete as they ought to be. With your cursor on this line in the Makefile:

SOURCES = \

You can say

:r !ls src/*.c

That will put the complete list of extant C source files into the file at that position, complete with the “src/“ path prefix. Then to format the list properly for “make” syntax, use Shift-V to select the list, hit the right angle bracket (“>”) once to indent it a level, then say:

:s/$/ \/

This trick of replacing the start (“^”) or end (“$”) of a line is very often helpful. Here I’ve used it to ask Vim to put a space and backslash after every line to allow the SOURCES variable definition to continue from one line to the next.

(This will look like “:’<,’>s...” in your editor, with the bit between the colon and s being inserted by Vim; it means “front the start of the selection to the end.”)

Remove the final backslash and it’s done.

The advantage of working this way is that you aren’t manually transcribing things the computer already knows and can report on command.

The possibilities here are vast. For instance, if your C source files are buried under subdirectories of `src`, say this instead:

:r !find src -name \*.c
Diff mode, delicious! Just edit the 2 files with vim -O file1 file2, and in vim do <ESC>:diffthis<enter>C-w<right>:diffthis<enter>, and voila!

Vimgrep and the quickfix window are also pretty cool.

Prostitution is the oldest career there is in the United States (also one of the very few that is genuinely recession-proof). There have always been, and always will be, people willing to pay for and be paid for sex. Take Australia for example, where it's legal, regulated, and safer - I'm sure there are plenty of men & women making a nice living off of it.
So instead of explicitly funding research we should implicitly fund it in a roundabout way and you're saying people shouldn't complain about this state of things?

Would this behavior be inconsistent with entities believing into the tethering effect, and trying to use it to arbitrage?

The fact that the market doesn't behave like any "normal" market for a good that isn't expected to have a tightly "tethered" price is not particularly weird in my eyes.
That is a nuance that a lot of people are missing.

Nicotine is highly addictive, but in itself does not kill you (at the amounts smokers/vapers are intaking it).

What kills you is the delivery mechanism. We have plenty of data for how the "burning up dried tobacco leaves" delivery mechanism kills you. However, currently, we have very little data regarding how propylene glycol does or does not kill you in the long term. That is the big open question when it comes to vaping.

this is pretty much de facto in python, and though not as widely used as i'd like, there is a testing framework called doctest which allows you to write tests in the documentation.

so for a given method or class, you have a couplefew paragraphs which explain how to use it, with invocations that are run as part of the test suite.

sometimes there end up being too much acrobatics for this to be as useful as i'd like, but the basic idea is really neat, IMO.

I've seen first hand many times how simply repeating the person's position back to them helps two parties understand each other.

You don't have to agree with them, but if you keep repeating their points with the preface "It sounds like you believe..." (or similar variations so as not to sound pretentious) until you get a "Yes" in response, then you've effectively understood them and they've felt understood by you.

Shared reality is different from agreement, but it is very possible with patience and non-arguable phrasing.
