It’s incredible that this was viable in the first place. Of course these type of experimental surgeries are done on extremely sick people at the end stage of normal care. So, actually two months is nothing to scoff at. It means a successful operation. I hope autopsy will give insight. What this man did is incredibly brave and important for mankind. Hero in my books.
As an example. I grew up in hip-hop but at a certain point I stopped listening to new people and realised recently that I’d slept on some bangers. Like Kendrick particularly, but even people like Juice WRLD and Xxxtentacion....
For convenience sake let’s say you have 2 identical lasers, one is blue and one is red. And you shine it on lead (so none of the light leaks through) until the lead doesn’t heat up anymore. Would the temperature change at all between the different color lasers. It doesn’t have to be red or blue, it could be microwave or x...
The power needed to power the laser, if identical, is what determines the temperature here, not the color.
A thousand watt laser is going to make the lead melt while a 5 watt laser won’t.
Another limiting factor is how fast the lead/target material can dissipate the heat. A 10kg block of lead is going to stay a lot cooler than a 5 gram piece of lead.
The colour of the laser has no influence on the final temperature, at all.
The photons are just transferring energy from a to b. And whether they can do it fast or slow doesn’t really matter. Both blue and red photons are subject to the law of conservation of energy. The amount of energy you put in is the amount of energy you get out.
In reality there is probably a difference in how efficient a blue and red laser diode are, so there are losses. And if one is slower than the other, the target material is losing energy to the surrounding air. And that’s why you’ll get different temperatures.
In an ideal setting with exactly identical lasers, where the only difference is the colour, the end result is also exactly the same.
Im in the privileged position where I can say that I was educated to pronounce and write in British English. And while I’m not a native speaker, I’m confident that my knowledge of the English language surpasses most of native speakers in the US, if not 99%. My spell checker is biased for us English.
Now if you excuse me I have to go back to my flat, with my lorry having chips and candy floss in the boot. Do you even elevator bro?
Do you even know what communism actually is? I mean do you know where it came from, and why?
If you’re 17 and in America, there isn’t a lot of hope that you have been told about this in a non-biased manner. Young people especially are susceptible to the ideology that they can make it in life through hard work and equal opportunities. You might even already have felt some success in this regard, was able to achieve a goal because you worked for it. And it all makes sense to you.
And you think, In some way or another, that communist are perverting this, maybe by giving away shit for nothing or worse want to take shit from you.
But that’s not true.
Socialism wants you to fully get your complete value of your labour for you, instead of most of it going to a boss who didn’t work. And communist want to make sure that the system doesn’t allow for bosses to make decisions about the conditions workers live in.
America has a real problem if something very bad happens to Biden or Trump during the elections (or shortly after).
The world has a problem when Trump is elected again. As he’s not known for keeping peace, or understanding international relations. In fact quite the opposite.
So the next big thing really is the elections.
…
Notice though how certain massive events are barely registering here… Imagine a third of Americans threatened to lose their home… But that’s what’s currently happening in China through floods, and rain season still having to start. I would call that big, 120 million people isn’t nothing… In comparison, 7 million died from corona (out of 700 million confirmed cases)
So this very much depends on your perspective and where on the planet you live.
No, you could have great arguments while being an ass. When you don’t argue from any morals or ethics, or a ground floor of ascertaining the truth, I have zero respect for your opinions. I don’t really care about what a ‘good’ argument looks like, it doesn’t even need to be good, as long as your grounded in reality and ethics, you’re fine.
I’ve been dealing with dandruff since I was a kid, it’s always made me really insecure and always wear a hat. I’ve tried plenty of different hair products, none seem to work. It’s not just my hair on my scalp, it’s my beard as well. I’m a 19 year old male (Caucasian), I’ve been already deciding if I want to go bald...
My friends had me over and this poor tree looked to have fluid coming out of a very old wound. They say it was like that long before they arrived, is there anything they can do for the tree? Hate to think its been like this for years :(...
It has yeast eating sugars because of some problem inside the tree. This produces a lot of pressure, because of the production of co2 gas, and this is being released through a weak spot. That’s what you see outside, it’s leaking through the weak spot.
In the crown you should see dead branches and a weak crown. Most likely it has been damaged (badly pruned? ) in the past.
The long and short of it is that if it can cause damage when falling over, remove the entire tree and replace it, hire an arborist. If it doesn’t matter and you don’t care… Sit back and hope it’s going to stay alive for as long as possible. Then just literally don’t do anything, there isn’t a fix. Just remove dead wood.
At some point when I kept saying no, there wasn’t much room left for manipulative tactics exploiting my emotional bond. This was at the end of our relationship, where I started to figure out that I was taken use of. I spend thousands and a lot of time on the relationship, while my happiness drained faster than my bank account. I started to realise what was happening to me, took off the pink glasses, and so I started to say no. Which was apparently of the same magnitude of exploding nuclear bombs. Things got mental really fast. I had to just assume that it was fake threats, and if it wasn’t, not my fault.
Right. So you think that when fascist are in power suddenly that’s going to change? No. So if you’re right, and you are, in general for most people, it’s a lot easier to ‘do something’ without being under the constant threat of punishment.
It’s not a false assumption to assume most people aren’t going to risk anything. You’re completely right. But it’s actually another reason to make certain that the fascists aren’t going to take over… See?
