"All that matters is whether Hans had enough support. It doesn't matter what the law says, or who is the rightful heir. What matters is would enough people who hold powerful positions agree that Hans should be ruler regardless of how flimsy the justification. There have been much flimsier excuses for many kingdoms in the past. So really the question is - how angry are the people that their queen froze them and left? Angry enough to question her legitimacy? If he can stir up enough populist anger towards the royal family he could easily win the peoples support. If he can get a few key members of the aristocracy on his side. I reckon he had a decent shot is Anna had died. If he gets some high ranking military general or guards on his side, he can threaten and bully his political opponents.": 0.0,
"Anna was, according to the script, 18 during the events of Frozen (here's the Disney wiki https://disney.fandom.com/wiki/Anna#cite\\_ref-:0\\_5-0). As such, she is indeed the queen if Elsa abdicates, and one could make a very solid case that refusing to take part in your coronation, throwing away your crown, hiding in the mountains and refusing to come back is a *de facto* abdication. If Elsa *had* abdicated at that point, Anna was queen. As such, her appointing Hans caretaker ruler is a royal decree. And if she dies, this gives Hans some degree of political authority to declare himself leader based on the late queen's wishes- especially since, with Anna's death, the direct line of succession seems to have ended. It wouldn't necessarily *work*, but he certainly had a leg to stand on.": 1.0

Meaning, a strike beyond (or even before) that focal point would be less energetic.

"You know, I started looking up numbers, and this *is* an actual concern. So first thing: TNG starship scale phasers had an effective range of 300,000 kilometres. (Star Trek TNG Technical Manual, page 126) Standard orbit is 40,000 kilometres. (Page 95, given as the necessary range for away team communication) This means that a stray shot from the Enterprise-D *could* leave a mark on a planet they were orbiting. Presumably this is something factored for in tactical maneuvers, at least by the Federation. However, a missed shot into empty space isn't going to matter at all. If the beam is considered tactically ineffective beyond 300,000km, it sure as hell isn't going to matter to whatever planet is a few *million* kilometres away (assuming it was the planet directly beside the one they're currently orbiting). So the only time this really matters is when combat is occurring during standard orbit.": 1.0

We do not have proof of life in other solar systems that have conditions that would match the Goldilocks zone. We do not have any proof of life that is outside of a Goldilocks zone. We do not currently have any proof of life outside of the Earth, so we have a sample size of 1, which is not enough to draw firm conclusions. Since we evolved in these conditions, to us, these conditions seem perfect. Because we were literally made for them. Every step in our evolution was made because it was comparable with life in our environment. If a creature had a mutation that made them unfit to live in our environment, then that creature died because no other environment was available for them to live in. And every culture which is capable of running this analysis would likely have the same conclusion, regardless of their local environmental conditions. Unfortunately, until we have a much, much larger sample size of independently evolved life form clusters, we won\u2019t know if there are chemical and physics reasons why life similar to ours is more common, or even if life outside of these constraints is feasible.

Too much roughage and you might go in the other direction.

Your body simply can't get to them. To increase the bio-availability of those vitamins and nutrients those cell walls need to be broken, usually through grinding and blending or through chopping and plenty of chewing. Cooking your veg is a faster and more efficient way to break those cell walls. edit to add: The above is for a person with a healthy digestive system. If you're experiencing lots of difficulty eating even a salad and a piece of fruit with a meal as part of a balanced diet, then you might have other issues and a visit to your doctor might be in order.

"Other posters have already come with a lot more bird knowledge than I have, but another important point is that all domestic dogs and (separately) all domestic cats are the same species, even though they might look very different. This is due mainly to humans selectively breeding specific 'breeds'; if humans disappeared then these breeds would probably disappear too due to interbreeding. In some cases you have dramatic differences in size/etc that make mating impractical but they still have the same structure of their DNA. In comparison, wild animals can and will interbreed whenever they feel like it, and are not separated by people based on human preferences like domestic animals, so it's genetic compatibility and common survival traits that end up coalescing into common 'species' that either can't or don't interbreed (often). For example a mix between an owl and a parrot, even if this was possible, would probably not have a viable niche and would not fare well in the evolutionary competition.": 0.0,
"One thing to remember when you talk about dogs cross breeding- they are all the same species- basically a domesticated sub species of Gray Wolves. The vast differences in physical appearance (phenotype) between, say, a chihuahua and a great Dane have been selectively chosen by humans over a fairly short amount of time. Parrots and owls have evolved and been separate species for millions of years. They probably can\u2019t interbreed. With that said, it still happens. But, usually between birds of the same type (two different species of ducks, two different species of parrots) that are more physically compatible. Often if two species can and do breed, Scientists start asking if they are actually different species at all, or variants of the same species. (This question has been debated about polar bears and grizzly bears, which do interbreed). Edit: I refrained from too many terms at first, but it might be helpful- when we talk about hybrids, usually it is within the same *Genus*, or maybe the same *Family*. *sub species* are usually theoretically capable of breeding but are divided by other means- like location or behavior- becoming genetically distinct populations of the same *species*. To illustrate the evolutionary relationships between animals, scientists keep on sticking more names in between (*Subfamily* *Infraorder*) but there is no magical place to draw these lines- it\u2019s simply a way to say \u201cthis set of animals evolved from the same ancestor\u201d.

"One potential answer is lenses. The technology to make high quality lenses first emerges in Holland and Italy during the 15th century. These allowed artists to project images of a sitter onto a canvas and to sketch the main lines and shades, giving the hyperrealistic paintings the renaissance became famous for. (It's also worth noting that many of the paintings involve subjects where this technique would be particularly effective, like shiny armour in a darkened room with a single 'spot' source of light. A renaissance artist's studio would have resembled a photographer's studio today) On the other hand, Classical Art (and some Egyptian Art) made sculptures that are near perfect, and their mosaics are also close to realism, and that can't be explained with lenses. I think it's clear that stylisation played a significant role: it wasn't just that people *couldn't* do 'realistic' (that is, as we know from photographs) portraits, it was that they weren't trying to. They were often aspiring to something else: to show the power of a ruler, to represent the Gods, to communicate something or exhibit a particular aesthetic sensibility.

I documented all of our interactions, including my correspondence with Airbnb that lead to him being removed from the platform, so I have everything in order if needed.

Nuclear produce very little greenhouse gases, which make it clean. 2. People fear what they don't know so for most people nuclear radiation or nuclear waste is like a big dangerous thing. The truth is that most things we do produce dangerous (often radioactive) waste. With nuclear, the waste are concentrated in very little mass, yes it seem dangerous but it's far easier to control and secure. Compare that to particle and gases that are released in the air, which causes millions of death per year from respiratory disease. The death are a lot more direct with nuclear, but there is far less of them. If you look at the number of death caused by each type of energy. Nuclear kill less than one person per terawatt hour of energy produced, Natural gas kill 2-4 people and Coal kill 20-100 people. (The variation depend on the study and what they include). Nuclear might seem scary, but it create a lot less problem than most other source of energy. 3) When you talk about contamination it's a bit more complex than that. Radiation is everywhere around us. It's in the soil you walk on, it's in the food you eat, it's in the air you breath. Radiation isn't an on (bad) and off (good) switch. It's a gradient that fluctuate with everything you do and everywhere you go. What is important is how much radiation people are exposed. Here is a video talking about radioactivity around us.": 1.0

(in this case, about setting Appa free) Did they honestly forget that she could do this?\n### Comment:\n",

"I think it helps if you understand what a Boggart is. Boggarts fit into the category of \u201cnon-being\u201d in the HP universe. They\u2019re spirits, but unlike ghosts (who form after a person\u2019s death), a non-being exists as a formless mass. They aren\u2019t alive or dead, they just are. The most well known non-beings after the Boggarts are the Dementors, and once you know that you should start to see the similarities: both are beings that feed off emotions and have abilities designed to inflict the ones they want on their victims. A Dementor is a spirit of sadness and melancholy, which is why their presence makes people feel cold and upset. A Boggart, meanwhile, is a spirit of fear. Their main power is to take the form of a person\u2019s worst fear, and (according to the HP wiki) even when not observed they still take actions to instill fear like scratching walls and tapping on windows. So what does a Boggart do once it\u2019s scared you? Nothing. It\u2019s already got what it wanted, your terrified reaction has \u201cfed\u201d it. My guess is it would probably leave, only to come back later when it got \u201chungry\u201d.": 1.0

I\u2019m not into engineering much, but I have a lot of friends who are studying it right now and so I had the opportunity to shoot a flamethrower. My little brother saw us doing it and he really expressed an interest in how that works, and he\u2019s beginning to think a lot of that kind of stuff is cool. He had already had an interest in that kind of thing, wanting to be an astrophysicist in the past, but it\u2019s REALLY being brought out now.

Most of these are relatively dangerous ideas though, and so our parents aren\u2019t too keen on letting him work with explosives or projectiles. However despite being a bright kid, his grades are very poor, with him almost having to retake his grade.

How can I cultivate that interest and increase his motivation to learn more about it? I\u2019m not into engineering much, but I have a lot of friends who are studying it right now and so I had the opportunity to shoot a flamethrower. My little brother saw us doing it and he really expressed an interest in how that works, and he\u2019s beginning to think a lot of that kind of stuff is cool. He had already had an interest in that kind of thing, wanting to be an astrophysicist in the past, but it\u2019s REALLY being brought out now. He\u2019s now talking about wanting to build a jack o\u2019 lantern with fire shooting out of its eyes, crossbows, and all sorts of other projects. Most of these are relatively dangerous ideas though, and so our parents aren\u2019t too keen on letting him work with explosives or projectiles. However despite being a bright kid, his grades are very poor, with him almost having to retake his grade. I believe that if I can encourage his interest in engineering it will give him more intrinsic motivation to do well in school, and could give him a good direction in life. So how can I do that? I\u2019ve been trying to come up with safe experiments and projects to do, but I\u2019m not very savvy with this sort of thing.\n### Comment:\n",

"Depends how much force and corresponding stress (force per area) you can generate within the material and if some kind of creep mechanism is possible under the conditions you have. Up to a certain stress, the metal will behave *elastically* meaning it will be stretched but return to original length/shape when you remove the force. Above that particular stress, it will behave plastically meaning things called dislocations will be transported through the lattice structure in the metal causing the metal to not return to original shape when load is removed. (If it\u2019s brittle material the material will usually break before much plastic deformation occurs). If the material is heated up you can get something called creep where the thing under stress would continue to elongate or deform under a constant stress as long as the creep mechanism has enough energy to activate (from the temp). I think at low temps the dominant mechanism would be grains sliding against each other. Also I think magnetism decreases with temperature so might be hard to create conditions where you can creep some metal with a magnet. So if you had a sample that melts close to room temperature and can exhibit magnetism, then you could probably continuously plastically deform that sample.": 0.0,
"On a microscopic level over really long time, yes. Materials will creep over very long time periods, sped up by applied load and temperature. Basically a material that is far under the average load/temperature required to break bonds will still randomly have small random spikes of energy concentrations. Over long enough time these small energy spikes will eventually be energetic enough and happen in a weak point, so bonds can break. So, yes. The load applied by the magnet will influence and increase creep. But under normal temperatures and loads it will not make a noticeable difference on a macroscopic level.": 1.0

And they hear two people talking about an event. When they get done talking, they identify themselves as KVHT 730 AM radio out of Bumblestan Michigan. Well now you have some measure of trustworthiness to it, or the ability to find out. (Is this a well respected local station, or the station always reporting we are about to be invaded by aliens) And also, if you thought it was a good news program, you can make a point of trying to tune in again tomorrow now that you know what station you were listening to. And so it makes sense for stations to identify themselves. And not just at the end. Most stations will try to identify themselves every 10 minutes or so. This means during a 30 minute interview or 30 minute news program they find good breaks to identify themselves. At the start and at the end are pretty good spots to use that don't break the flow of the show. It's not like a newspaper where you can be reading an article and think highly of the reporter and just glance back on top and see who wrote it. Or even at the title of the piece.

The issue is I have already signed a contract with the other company and I am due to start in August. They are a big company and one which I could foreseeably work for in the future, so I don't want to end my chances with them completely. The reason I want to turn them down and take up my most recent offer is because it is closer to home and better pay/conditions. Both companies employ over 50,000 people and turn over more than 10bn. Is it 'OK' for me to turn down a job after accepting but before starting? And how can I do this without burning a bridge? Thanks for your help.\n### Comment:\n",

It gives the broth this sort of sticky, velvety mouth feel that make it even more intense and addictive as it spreads across your tongue and forces you to smack your lips in pleasure.

"post_content": "CMV: Tipped Food Servers should earn regular minimum wage on top of any tips they may potentially receive (USA) In the example of a food server (waiter/waitress), they are hired to do a specific job. Which normally, would be something along the lines of greeting guests, taking their orders/answering questions about the menu, delivering food/drink, collecting payment, cleaning tables and any other related tasks that the employer feels necessary (like restocking napkins/utensils or refilling condiments). Of course, not limited to these tasks. The job duties outlined by the employer are expected to be completed, regardless of whether or not the employee receives a tip from the customer or not.

"Having been to countries where tipping is frowned on, such as Japan, I believe the flaw in your view is that we should allow tipping to continue in the first place. Tipping not only allows businesses to hide the true cost of their products by not paying their employees a fair wage, but it is also outright discriminatory. Female servers get more tips than male servers. White servers get more tips than Black servers. Blonde servers get more tips than brunette servers. Big-breasted servers get more tips than small-breasted servers. The list goes on.": 0.0,
"This has resulted in some servers in Canada making over 100k a year often while not being taxed appropriately. Just don't give servers less than minimum wage and get rid of tip culture.

You have 15 different banks/companies in different countries that handle money transfers for you. Every 2-3 years they change something, due to laws in that country being changed. That means your site breaks, on average, 5 times per year. Reason 3: The power went out. You need to push a button to start the site again. Reason 4: Google changed their search algorithm again. If you don't provide \"the new data\" nobody will ever see your site again - it's now on page 2!!! Reason 5: You site actually had a really really complicated security issue.

"Average life expectancies for populations tend to get shorter the further into the past you go. Of course, in the past, some people lived into their 80s, with evidence from places like ancient egypt (2400BCE),where the Egyptian Vizier Ptahhotep wrote verses about the disintegrations of old age, and Greece, where they classed old age among the divine curses, and their tombstones attest to survival well past 80 years. Ancient artworks and figurines also depict elderly people: stooped, flabby, wrinkled. ​ https://www.sapiens.org/biology/human-lifespan-history/ ​ Concerning life expectancy, a variety of factors had an impact on the average age of a person at death. Almost half of all births ended in death before the age of 5, greatly lowering the average. When infant mortality is removed, evidence seem to show averages of life expectancy for 3000 years ago to be around 52, give or take 15 years. ​ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2625386/ ​ Can people live to 150? Likely not. Studies have shown that the estimated maximum of the human life span is around 125 years, under ideal conditions. This maximum would have been the same in previous generations, though the life-expectancies of those generations were limited by conditions that were not ideal - lack of medicine, for example, famine, war, and so on. ​ https://learn.age-up.com/blog/a-brief-history-of-human-longevity/ https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10522-008-9156-4": 0.0,

That\u2019s what skews the numbers In this study, they talk about how Ancient Greek and Roman men born before 100 BC had a median length of life of 72 years. Those born after 100 BC went down to 66 years. Probably because that\u2019s about the time they started using lead pipes. So if you\u2019re asking if modern people are *physically capable* of living longer, I\u2019m gonna go with \u201cnot really.\u201d If ancient man had had access to antibiotics, blood transfusions, chemo etc\u2026.they would have lived longer too. Ancient people were capable of longer lives, they just didn\u2019t have the medicine to support it. It\u2019s worth noting that even tho there are more 100 year olds now than in the past\u2026..just because your life is longer, that doesn\u2019t mean the last 20 years are enjoyable": 1.0

"I would definitely contact a family lawyer *first*, before going to the police or CPS. However, you will want to ask that lawyer up front when you should call the police and what you should say - or better yet, if they can be present when you talk to the police. The reality is, calling the cops and/or CPS on the other parent still puts you at risk, and you want to protect yourself. Definitely start working on that custody order, and this is worthy of an interim custody order. A custody order can be more than who gets the child when, it can also explicitly order who can watch the child, what day care arrangements are required, etc. For example, his mom's judgement seriously should be questioned by the court that she didn't turn him in and that she thought it was OK. I had a friend who left their child in the car accidentally and the child overheated and passed away. It does not take long to happen, and it is frighteningly easy to get distracted, forget, and come back to a dead child. Even if there are mitigating circumstances (parked in the shade, relatively cool day, left car on with A/C running), small children are not good at shedding heat and cannot escape the car, leaving them at huge risk from the slightest change in circumstances (A/C dies, no longer in the shade, day warms up).": 1.0

"In general terms, animals with exoskeleton breathe by passive diffusion of oxygen via airways in their carapace - they don't have lungs. The less oxygen present in the atmosphere, the less it gets to the tissues that need it (pretty much all of them). Therefore, the smaller the animal, the better oxygen reaches their whole body. This is why they can only grow up to a specific size. Which means, we better keep oxygen as it is, otherwise, we could be seeing stuff of nightmares - or extinct them.": 0.0,
"Yes, generally speaking. Spiders (arachnids) and insects don't have lungs like you and I. The way spiders and insects breathe are slightly different, but in both cases they are limited by how much oxygen in the air is available. For insects, they get oxygen through tiny holes in their bodies that are connected to a network of tubes. The tubes let the oxygen get into the rest of the bug, oxygen passes through the walls of the tubes, so the farther you get down the tube, the more oxygen has been taken out. More oxygen in the air lets it get further into the bug, meaning that the bug can be bigger and still get enough oxygen. Reduce the oxygen, and it can't reach as far into the bug, so the bug must be smaller to make sure that oxygen can get everywhere. Spiders have what's called a \"book lung\" which has little flat sheets that look like the pages of a book, and each little sheet has blood (hemolymph) that circulates through it to carry oxygen away. This eliminates the network of tubes that insects have, but there's no muscles to expand and compress the lung to push air in and out like you or me. It still relies on air passively flowing through a few tiny holes in the abdomen that lead to book lung. Similar to the insects, the oxygen levels decrease from where it enters to the end of the \"pages\" in the lung. Increase the amount of oxygen, and the book lung could have longer pages and support a bigger spider; decrease the amount of oxygen, and longer pages can't get enough oxygen so the spider needs to be smaller. Most insects' and most spiders' sizes are not limited only by oxygen, but also by their body shape. The way they breathe sets something of an upper limit to their size based on available oxygen, but all of them are below that limit.": 1.0

"Yes you are supposed to eat it. You are also supposed to slice brie (and most other semi-soft cheeses) into wedges radiating outward from the center point, like a birthday cake or pizza.

"Sugar only acts as a preservative in high enough concentrations. At high enough levels, the sugar will draw water out of bacteria into the sugar/water via osmosis making them inert and incapable of growing or reproducing. With a 1:1 simple syrup, the concentration of sugar isn\u2019t high enough to cause the osmosis and prohibit bacterial growth so it isn\u2019t really acting as a preservative. It can last about 3-4 weeks though if stored in a sterile container in the fridge. But you can make a simple syrup with a longer shelf life by increasing the sugar concentration and making a syrup with a 2:1 sugar to water ratio. This is strong enough that the sugar will act as a preservative and prohibit bacterial growth and can last a few months under the same conditions. EDIT: figured I\u2019d add as others have pointed out that the time ranges I\u2019ve given do not follow guidelines or code for food service and are instead rough estimates of homemade syrups for personal use.

They have been exploiting their dominant position\u2014which is further established through indirect means\u2014to push-up prices.

Back at Stark Industries, you've got a bunch of people with the parts and the specs and maybe the brains, but miniaturizing the Arc Reactor for them would be a cool thing they might could do someday that would get them a big bonus.

"In 1800AD a man named Alessandro Volta invented the first battery. It was made by stacking pairs of copper and zinc disks separated by brine soaked cloth. It was revolutionary for the fact that it produced a stable, continuous current, and retained it's charged rather well when not being used. However, it didn't even produce a strong enough charge to create sparks. On top of that, Volta had a flawed understanding of how his own battery worked, assuming that the current was a result of two different materials coming into contact with one another. The true nature of the current was in the chemical reaction that was being produced. The full sized arc reactor is Volta's battery, flawed scientific theories included. Tony Stark's miniature reactor is a Lithium-Ion battery whose thickness is measured in millimeters, weighs less than a slice of bread, can fully power a handheld computer for half a day, can recover that charge in an hour, and can be recharged well over 300 times before losing it's efficiency. Stark's miniature arc reactor is so far ahead of the original, both in design and in supporting scientific theory, that the two simply can't be compared. Trying to recreate Stark's achievement by studying the full sized reactor would be like trying to build an Oculus Rift by studying a CRT TV. They are generations apart from each other.": 1.0

Space-time has four dimensions. There are three spacial dimensions and one non-spacial time dimension. Everything that exists within the universe has a combined velocity through these four dimensions that is equal to the speed of light. As an object moves faster through the three spacial dimensions, it's \"velocity\" through time slows down. If you look at light, which has all of its allotted velocity put into moving through space, it hasn't got the ability to move through time at all.

It seems quite possible that there's a new drug available that could help a patient out and their doctor simply isn't aware of it. Even if they are, it may not occur to them to consider it. Say you're a doctor; you get pamphlets or emails for ten new drugs. Are you really going to look into all of them and then consider the possible benefits they have for every one of you patients? It seems like most doctors are too busy for that kind of thing. But the patient only has to be aware of the medical history and needs of one person; themself. And if the doctor, in their judgement, thinks that the person would not benefit from drug X, all they have to do is say so and explain why. Even if the patient disagrees, the doctor can simply refuse to prescribe it.": 0.0,
"I actually 100% agree with OP, but here's the best argument I've heard for the counter: Many diseases are actually under-diagnosed and under-treated, and a big reason is that people don't think there's anything that can help them. Depression/anxiety is a great example (and you see a lot of TV ads for those products). If you let people know thru TV that there's a drug that might help them, they're much more likely to actually bring it up with their doctor. Another more trivial example: Erectile Dysfunction. How many men were telling their doctors that they couldn't get it up before they knew there was a pill that could fix it? (My response to this argument is that okay, pharma companies should be allowed to fund \"disease awareness\" ads, but not ads for their own particular products.)": 1.0

"In many restaurants its not a quantified scale (ie its not how many chillis or spoonfuls of spice are added), but relates to a qualitative scale. 1 usually means \"not spicy for folk who like spice, mild enough for folk who don't enjoy heat to say that its nicely spiced\". 2 usually means \"hot enough that someone who doesn't enjoy heat is going to struggle a bit with it, but could just manage\". 3 is \"hot enough for someone who enjoys a bit of spice, but isn't crazy about burning their mouth off\" 4 is \"too hot for most people, but not quite as hot as the dish can reasonably be made\" 5 is \"about as hot as the dish can reasonably be made without ruining it\". It'll vary from dish to dish, as some flavour profiles can take more spice. Of course, they'll absolutely make any dish spicier than a 5 for you if you ask, but at that point you're just trading away flavour for heat.": 0.0,
"Hi I am a Thai chef and can probably answer this question decently. In your run of the mill restaurant it is likely just how much dried pepper they use which is a damn shame. I eat hot food but some places will ruin a dish by just making it dry with the amount of pepper flakes they put on it. Truthfully, you can almost always order a 3 or 2 and it will be fine. Not disgustingly unbalanced but also not missing the heat. Now for the more detailed answer. In thai food they don't use chili oil very often. It exists as a product of China but they don't use it nearly at all. Some regional foods are hotter than others and it can determine which type of chili is used. Some use dried, some use less spicy but fresh peppers. Eastern Thai (also called Issan Thai) is the hottest regional cuisine but northern Thai is genrally not that spicy by comparison. I don't believe in artificially scaling heat. Thai food is all about balance of flavor with heat being a key component. Not all thai food it naturally hot. Some is disturbingly spicy. Next time you go to your local spot, don't order pad thai or massaman curry or something normal like that. Instead try something like; Laap/Larb/Laab/Meat Salad with stick rice Kra Prao (or something pronounced like kapow) Or my favorite, Khao Soi Laap is a mixed bag on how its made but when done well, it's the absolute best. Edit; I'm glad this helped lots of people it seems. I love Thai food and think we only scratch the surface of it in the US so the more i can do to share my interest the better.

"The other answers are right, but it's also important to ask another question. Instead of \"how do they know?\" Ask \"do they know?\" Because arson investigation suffers from the same confirmation bias that forensic investigation does. If you've kept up with forensic investigation over the past 20 years, you know that everything except DNA analysis has come under huge scrutiny for not having rigorous scientific guidelines. Blood spatter, bite mark, and hair analysis are now all considered junk science. The fields of arson investigation and forensic science have similar origins. They were both largely driven by professionals in their fields (detectives and firemen) and not outside academics. Investigaters in both fields can suffer from the same pressure find a crime where sometimes there isnt one, and this can lead to a false interpretation of the data available. Many people have been convicted of violent crimes by junk forensic science, and smaller, but not insignificant number of people have also been convicted of arson when the actual culprit was faulty wiring or other accidental fire origins.": 0.0,
"23 years in the fire department here. We can\u2019t always determine the exact cause especially with extensive damage. It\u2019s science mixed with art for a lack of better words. With the cigarette example you used, let\u2019s say someone\u2019s house burned. Patterns indicate it started in their living room and the worst damage was in the area of the remnants of a chair. We\u2019d dig that area out and look for sources of ignition such as electronics. If none are found we\u2019d assume it was a different source. We would interview the residents and if they said a certain person always sat in that chair we\u2019d ask more questions. Let\u2019s just say they say he sat there and smoked a lot and was even sitting there an hour before the fire started. So what we couldn\u2019t say for certain is that the fire started in that chair and was for sure caused by the resident smoking. What we can say is the fire started at or near the chair, that no ignition sources such as electronics were in that area, and the fire was most likely caused by another ignition source. We can take samples to be tested for accelerants as well but if those aren\u2019t present what\u2019s the most likely cause? Most likely the resident who was known to smoke in the chair accidentally discarded smoking materials. They continued to smolder until the chair caught fire. The fire then spread to items nearby then the structure itself.": 1.0

"First of all, letters aren\u2019t vowels. Some speech sounds are vowels. What letters or other signs represent what sounds depends very much on the language, the writing system and the accent of the speaker. That said, there are two definitions of a vowel. One is phonetic - a vowel is a sound produced without any constriction anywhere in the vocal tract, letting the air escape without obstruction. Another is phonological - a vowel is the central part (the \u201cpeak\u201d) of a syllable. These definitions contradict sometimes. For example, \u201cy\u201d in \u201cyet\u201d represents a (phonetic) vowel, but it\u2019s not the peak of the syllable. Another example: in some languages an r-like sound can form the central part of a syllable, making it a vowel phonologically, but it\u2019s decidedly not a phonetic vowel.": 0.0,
"A vowel is essentially a letter sound that is generated without constricting the airflow in your throat -- compared to a consonant which involves manipulating or constricting the air in some way. Think of the three sounds that go into the word \"Cat\". You have the C/K sound + the \"a\" sound + plus the hard T sound. Say the word slowly -- notice how in the K sound, you have to push a short burst of air over your tongue to the top of your mouth -- in the T sound you do something similar, pushing the air between your tongue and your teeth. The \"a\" sound on the other hand, has a nice open mouth and unrestricted airflow in your throat. That's a vowel. Notice how much easier and natural it is to hold that \"a\" sound for a long time compared to the K/T. Vowels are consistent in that basically all languages have them, because they give your throat and airflow a break from the \"work\" required in a consonant. But how the vowels sound, how many there are, and how frequently they are used do vary wildly -- English has just 6 vowel letters, but those letters can make around a dozen different vowel sounds (think of the a in \"apple\" vs \"cape\"). Spanish, on the other hand, has just 5 vowel letters and each letter makes a more-or-less consistent sound.": 1.0

"Phase 1: Tony incorporates the proton pack technology into the regular design of the suit, including the proton wand into his arms. A trap is added to his chest plate, allowing him to hold the ghost steady and capture it directly. Phase 2: Tony massively strengthens the proton pack, meaning the ghost is held fast, unable to move or fight against the beam. The chest trap is increased in power and range. Sensors have been upgraded to detect PK energy. Phase 3: The beam is further strengthened and the containment field imroved, so it is less wavy and more direct, making it easier to aim. As the beam works by dissipating psychokinetic (PK) energy which ghosts use to manifest themselves, some weaker ghosts are now 'dissolved' by a simple blast from the beam. Larger and stronger ghosts are weakened to the point where they are immediately helpless and easily trapped. The chest trap now can capture multiple ghosts, storing them in a secondary unit, allowing for fast containment of large numbers of ghosts. Phase 4: The beam and containment are now combined, leading to weaker ghosts being destroyed and stronger ones being caught and dragged into the suit in a single shot. the suit now taps into PK energy as a secondary power source, meaning that the heads up display can show real time PK energy and movement, allowing Tony to see the spirit world and track ghosts over long range. Phase 5: Wide scale PK tracking now allows for trapper drones to quickly reach hot spots and remove ghost activity before it reaches any kind of level where ghosts are able to manifest. The few that do Tony can track and reach immediately. Tony has upgraded the traps to allow for cross dimensional storage, meaning that ghosts who are caught get transferred into storage right away and he never needs to empty the \"trap\".": 1.0

"Flat feet are a common cause of general musculoskeletal pain and problems. Your body\u2019s balance begins in the feet; when the feet do not provide proper support, it can raise your risk for joint problems caused by poor posture and unnatural gait. Individuals with flat feet could be more likely to experience injury or pain in the feet, ankles, knees, or hips. A condition called plantar fasciitis is more common in people with flat feet as well. Plantar fasciitis occurs when the tendons in the feet are overstretched. This condition causes severe pain in the feet, especially in the morning. Flat feet tend to cause another condition called overpronation, which is when the ankles roll inward while you\u2019re walking. This can lead to foot and ankle pain. Because your feet are the basis of support for your entire body, having flat feet and overpronation can cause problems with your spinal alignment. You may notice that you also have problems with your hips, knees, and lower back.": 0.0,

"There is at least one thing when sitting on the side is better for driving when you overtake another vehicle. Sitting on the edge of the car at the center of the road results in you seeing longer past a vehicle in front of you. You alos need to expose less of the car to oncoming traffic before not traffic is blocked by the vehicle in front. It might not be that relevant if you overtake a car but if it is a truck it will block a lot ahead. Sitting in the middle of the car gives you the same amount of visibility towards both sides but I am not sure that is a huge advantage. If you drive a car having better visibility on toward the center of the road is in my experience better. There is a lot more situation when you car what is on that side of the car directly beside, behind, or in front compared to the other side. Regardless of the visibility, the main reason is what is mentioned in other posts, you fit two individuals in the front row of a car. There is one problem with this argument, trucks and other larger vehicles. They are also controlled from one side even when they are and have three sets side by side. Even on them sitting on one side give you good visibility on one side compared to a more equal on two sides.

Im in South Carolina if that matters, but the title is the general problem. My grandmother passed back in 2012 and has been receiving roughly $100 a month from Fidelity for a retirement account through her job. The account it was going to had my mom and grandmother's name both on it. My mother nev we informed Fidelity she had passed, so they kept sending the money. My mother passed last month and I just found all this out in the past week or so. They sent a letter saying they were going to need all that money they sent back, but that money is gone. It was spent taking care of my mother the past year as her dementia got worse. My mother had no will, so I'm the representative of her estate now, but don't know what to do about this. Do they have a claim against my mother's estate now since she technically used the money? Can they claim anything against me since I'm the representative? Do they even have to be paid at all at this point since both of then have passed?\n### Comment:\n",

"Humans can't detect small variations in some forms of energy, and instead we interpret these things differently than physics would. Sound is one of these. Instead of hearing a soundwave with twice as much energy as twice as loud, we hear it something like .3 (the result of log10(2)) times as loud (the actual value may be from a different log base in practice, but the scale is similar enough). This is far more useful to us, because now we can hear small sounds (like an animal walking in a forest) while not instantly being deafened by loud sounds (like an animal roaring to scare away predators). There is also a potential of the energy being less based on distance (sound becomes less energetic at a cube rate of distance from the source), but that is the lesser influence in a single venue. It is also possible to have constructive/destructive soundwaves, but the chaos of a choir arrangement is not precise enough to cancel out the energy involved at any real rate in either direction; that is something more often seen with precisely placed and timed electronic systems.": 0.0,
"Because the singers are not synchronized on a fine scale and not spaced out taking the wavelength into account. At a given moment in time some of their sound interferes destructively and cancels out. Doubling random, weakly correlated sounds adds 3 dB to the power. So you would get about 20 dB increase from 1 to 100. Human hearing is also non-linear, and adapts to louder noises by becoming less sensitive. In practice it is not that important to tell 99 and 100 sources of sound apart. You just need to know there is \"a lot\". An increase of 8 to 10 dB is perceived to be twice as loud.": 1.0

Obviously two coin flips can come up both tails, so the two must be different, and it's worth actually listing out every option to see why. The single 100% chance has only one option: \"win\".

"Your skin is a complex organ that relies on natural oils to stay sealed and hydrated. We wash these oils off several times a day, showering and washing our hands. This leads to two problems: rough calloused skin, which has built up, and cracked bleeding skin which has worn down. Lotion simply replaces the natural oils that were stripped off. The oil coats your skin, forming a barrier that seals moisture in. Once your skin stops losing moisture, it can heal and regenerate the worn down areas from the bottom up. The built-up layers become soft again so you don't notice they're there. Lotion is essentially a mix of water and vaseline. Creams, balms, etc are all just different, stronger formulations of water and vaseline. Once you get up to the highest, you're simply coating your hands in name-brand vaseline and putting cotton gloves on before bed. Since our skin does its most dramatic healing at night, if you only apply lotion once a day, let it be before you go to bed.": 1.0

However, I feel that if I want to be creating new products I should go into engineering or at least have an engineering minor or double major (in like mechanical engineering) because I feel like product design won\u2019t be as involved with the creation process. Any advice or insight?\n### Comment:\n",

"Your \"sons love science and mechanical everything\". That's all you need to know to be confident they will do great. Sure, have them pay extra attention to the math in their high school classes and make sure to track their progress in it, but math is just a tool that engineers use to solve problems, it isn't the whole thing. The most important part to be an engineer is to be curious, and especially curious about science and experimentation. I would say switch your worry into excitement that your sons have something that excites them, and make sure they build confidence in their own selves as well as tools such as math/physics in high school. To back up my statement: I struggled in math in high school, and dropped out of honors physics and felt lost. But in college I found my love for electrical engineering which I thought was artistic and allowed me to use my imagination. This pushed me to get good at the math and science, and fast forward few years, I am now doing a PhD in engineering and about to go for my 3rd NASA internship.

"One reason often cited by Italian cookbook writers (e.g. Marcella Hazan) is that the addition of salt to the dough results in a tougher, less supple finished pasta. This does make sense, as salt strengthens gluten (a phenomenon that will be familiar to most bread makers). More to the point, adding salt to the dough makes it less extensible when rolling and shaping, and thus harder to work with. Nowadays, mechanical pasta machines make the process a lot less difficult, but when rolled by hand using the traditional method (most closely associated with Emilia Romagna), it becomes a major issue.": 0.0,
"My understanding is that it effects the gluten in the pasta. Salt actually strengthens the gluten which could result in a tougher, chewier texture.

"There's a couple things here. First, SMS isn't end-to-end encrypted, but it is encrypted over-the-air. An attacker with radio can't just intercept your SMS messages. It can be intercepted by your carrier, someone who's hacked the carrier, or someone using a stingray (eg: the police) who's convinced your phone to connect. Second, \"2FA\" literally means \"second factor authentication\" -- there's already been another factor used to initiate this action, which is usually a username+password. This means to successfully attack a user's account on a service using 2FA: 1. The attacker needs to know the username and password 2. The attacker has to have inside access to the carrier's network equipment OR the attacker has to have a stingray and be nearby to have your phone connect to it This significantly reduces the chance of a successful attack. The real problem with SMS 2FA: * SIM swaps are too easy -- this is where someone basically steals your phone number by pretending to be you and getting the number transferred to their own device. Sometimes this is social engineering, sometimes it's via an insider working for the phone company, sometimes it's hacking the carrier. * Too many places don't actually use this as a \"second\" factor, especially for password resets. The most common exploit is an attacker starts a password reset request, verifies the SMS (usually via SIM swap but could also be another hack), and then sets the password to whatever they want, and now own the account. In the case of an account take-over, they'll change the SMS and/or email address to ones they control and you're totally locked out.": 0.0,
"As mentioned in another comment, SMS isn\u2019t as secure as a dedicated authenticator app. But it has a couple of advantages. - Not everyone has a smart phone and so can\u2019t install a dedicated app. - Authenticator apps can be a pain when you move to a new device. Some will transfer over, others may not. SMS doesn\u2019t have this problem. - Almost everyone knows how SMS works, authenticator apps are a bit more complex. Less technically minded people may have trouble installing, setting up, and transferring codes. - Even with SMS being less secure, it\u2019s still more secure than nothing at all. Every extra layer or step the attacker has to go through decreases your chance of getting compromised. It\u2019s just not the best step to take.": 1.0

"You can bend the 5 foot section of railroad rail, but it's such a small amount you don't really notice it. When you have 200 feet of railroad rail that small bend is amplified by a factor of 40, because every 5 foot section of the rail is bending just a little bit. They likely bend nearly the same amount (same radius of curvature), but it isn't very noticeable until you have a long enough piece of rail to see the arc. EDIT: Yes, I understand that the weight of the rail itself also plays into this. I was assuming the rain was lying flat and you were just pushing on it while the other end was fixed, for simplicity. If it's hanging or in other scenarios you do still need to consider the additional weight and leverage of the rail causing additional bending. This simplification also assumed you could somehow apply the same force on each 5 foot section of rail, which is false as was pointed out by u/orangeman10987.

During the hiring process, I was promised that there will be lots of trainings and classes for career development such as getting certified in my profession (Master Molder) in less than 3 months. Now it has been 4 months, and the manager has made no attempt in getting me or anyone to do any training. Secondly, I was hired as an engineer to do development works and troubleshooting but I\u2019ve been doing tech duties all this time like set up and cleaning. For the first month or two, I thought maybe it\u2019s just training and I went along with it although I had 2 years of experience as an engineer doing lots of technicals \u201cengineering works\u201d. I only been here for 4 months and I know it\u2019s really bad to start looking for another job, but I feel like I got cheated. The work environment doesn\u2019t help either. The last place I worked at everyone was really professional and accountable for their actions from operators to managers. At this place, nobody gives a shit and used cuss words like they\u2019re at a party and it\u2019s a medical device company. Overall, just unprofessional all around. If someone did something wrong or something is not getting done due to whatever reasons, blame game always come to play. No one is accountable for anything and techs are lazy and undisciplined do whatever they want. Imagine you using one of the products that this company made into your body. Should I start looking else where and how do I explain to potential employer about my situation? I don\u2019t want to be looked at as a quitter or job hopper. Thanks.\n### Comment:\n",

"Short answer: Because we figured out how. Cooking meat allows us to extract about 15% more calories from it because of the denatured proteins. Similar for being able to mechanically digest it. So ground beef that's been cooked to medium has about 25% more effective calories than the same weight of uncooked roast. That lets humans be the efficient ape. Compared to Chimps (our closest relatives), we've got about the same amount of gut and about half as much jaw for twice the ape. Cooking food kicks ass. And this is even skipping over the huge gains that we get from our ability to take \"questionable\" (read, not really questionable, but almost certainly full of Trichinosis) meat and make it fully safe by sitting it over a smoky fire for a few hours.

"If you\u2019re rolling the dice properly, it doesn\u2019t matter and it\u2019s just tradition. But, it\u2019s theoretically possible to hold and throw the dice in a particular way and have certain faces come up more often, or to have slight manufacturing defects that cause one half to come up a bit more often. It\u2019s more of a thing with 20 sided or larger, more round, dice, but it\u2019s basically impossible to hit one face in particular. So, if you have 20, 19, 18, 17 and so on all right next to each other, someone could roll it in such a way that that general half of the dice comes up more often. Scattering the numbers so the high and low numbers are evenly dispersed compensates for that possibility. I.e. if you have a 6 sided dice, you could theoretically roll it like a wheel so it\u2019s just rolling on 4 of the sides, and the other 2 will basically never be landed on. But you can\u2019t control which of the 4 it lands on. If you put the numbers so the 2 impossible sides are 1 and 2, you can get an unfair advantage, but if they are 1 and 6, or 2 and 5, you\u2019re eliminating both good and bad outcomes, not just bad ones, and you don\u2019t really benefit from rolling it that way. It\u2019s a pretty easily detectable method of cheating at dice, and pretty hard to execute, but it is possible, and placing the numbers the way they do helps to counter it. Or there\u2019s a bubble in the resin that makes one half of the dice more likely to come up. If all the high numbers are on that half, it could be considered loaded and cheating. If there\u2019s high and low numbers on that half equally, there\u2019s an increased chance of both the good and bad numbers, so it\u2019s not as advantageous to the roller.": 1.0

The pod would move the senator through the service exit and medical droids would be there immediately to perform first care while hospital staff tried to figure out why its impossible to move someone having a relatively minor condition like a heart attack.": 0.0,
"If it is dangerous to move the senator, it may be faster to deploy a medical droid to the Senate than to turn a short range hover platform into an ambulance. A droid can take a small vessel at high speeds from the nearest hospital and arrive faster than the senator could travel to the hospital by hoverpad.": 1.0

Do some basic forensic sleuthing and see if there are common causes of death. You all may come up with very similar plans. Then plan contingencies to prevent those methods.": 1.0
