Sounds like your dad was taking about software daemons and Maxwell’s demon.

I’ll accept that, only as long as Americans learn that route is pronounced “root”, not “rout”.

But I would suggest that any band names that use umlauts/foreign letters should be pronounced accordingly.

Motörhead still kind of works.

1. I don’t stop thinking, I just do my best to move my thoughts onto something else if I find myself dwelling too long on one thing. Before long, it’s an incoherent chain of nonsense, and then sleep.
2. If sleep is not coming, I just enjoy that I’m lying down with my eyes closed and getting some rest. I can survive a day or two with just a few hours of sleep, so if sleep comes now or later, I’ll be fine. Sleep usually comes.

It’s been long established that coal produces more radioactive waste than nuclear power, and largely dumps it straight into the environment.

Somehow people think it’s worse if you keep it contained rather than massively diluted. If we thought of it like we do radiation in coal waste, we’d be happy to just dump it in the ocean.

Living in Finland, I’m proud of the fact that we’ve got one of the first long-term/final storage sites for nuclear waste in the world. YIMBY.

Oddly enough, it’s safer than wind.

Solar’s a little better in that regard, but all three are so much safer than any high-carbon sources of energy that any of them are great options.

I’m sorry to hear about your loss. Losing a close friend is awful, especially when it’s stacked on top of other things.

Just ask for an extension. Professors have seen this “trick” a thousand times and know exactly what you’re doing. They will respect you more and give you more leeway in the future if you’re straight with them.

Isn’t the goal with these rebuild channels to actually try to make money on their rebuilds?

Sure, Tavarish may have spent 600k on the car and 500k in parts by the end, but he should send up with an asset worth 1.5m.

Just make sure to add comments like

//Magic, do not touch

To make sure no-one accidentally breaks the spell.

If you’re going to memorise a deck of cards, you’re better off learning something like the Mnemonica Stack as you can use it as the basis for a whole load of card tricks.

What you’re describing is a perfect thermal insulator.

What does it feel like when you’re wrapped in blankets? You feel warm, despite the blankets generating no heat of their own. They do this by insulating you from the outside temperature.

It would feel like being wrapped in a warm blanket, and if you were fully submerged, you’d end up overheating as we’re constantly generating heat that we need to get rid of.
