Thanks. It's called wisdom. Sounds like you're not used to it. I take it your still single?

Not An Argument. Keep your emotions in check. It's a bad look on a woman.

Irrelevant what happens at middle altitudes because the gas doesn't stay there. It continues to rise, until it reaches max altitude. The end result being, that 220K < 280K. Net cooling.

Since Syria, we have been talking about how Trump is either being pressured or converted by ((( Jared Kushner ))) and his ((( Neo-Cuck ))) friends. Since North Korea, we have been completely perplexed as to why Trump is playing with fire. I (and many others, e.g. Bill Mitchell) have pointed out that Trump has a history of being cold and calculating, during his negotiations. During his campaign, he often did jaw-dropping things. Many reacted by calling him a mad-man, only to find out weeks later what the original plan was. I think that today, we may have some insight as to what the geo-political chess was about. By agitating North Korea, Trump has created a situation where South Korea really needs the US military. CNBC just announced that Trump is now threatening to terminate the free trade deal with South Korea if Seoul doesn't pay for US defense. BOOM. Art of The Deal, baby! So do you guys still think Trump is a mad-man? Or can we finally admit that Trump is a methodical strategic genius?

Nothing. As I said, I was referring to a different link. The link you are referring to which has the green line shows CO2 at 280K at low altitude and 220K at high altitude (a decrease in temperature).

Agreed. I think that processing speed has increased to the point where - for most projects - it is no longer economically efficient to pay any attention to performance unless there is a bottleneck. That's what I was taught to do. And I think that it makes sense actually. Is months of dev time worth unnoticeable performance increases? Most users don't really give a crap about how wonderfully tight our loops are lol If anything, I think it's going to get much worse as browsers roll out Web Assembly. It is much quicker for web devs to learn C# / C++ basics than for a C# / C++ dev to learn the main web scripting languages AND their frameworks. With that assumption in mind, the "just import a module" mentality will translate to "just include headers and import libs"... That said, big data will outgrow regular app dev in demand. When that happens, I think there will be a resurgence of good old-fashioned CS

Sorry for the confusion, I thought you were referring to the other link.
-
I did. It proves my point. At the highest altitude for a gas, temperature dropped. 220K < 280K.

Wait the compilers got less efficient??? Are you sure it's the compilers' problem? It seems to me that us young'uns develop at a way higher level abstraction than the old-schoolers (increasingly object-heavy languages / frameworks) For e.g. where I work, our codebase has a an actual text snippet object (manages string sequences like putting a puzzle together as opposed to individual strings), i.e. we work with our Snippet class more often than we work with native strings, and mind you even native strings are wrappers around c-strings... The point being that there is a performance cost as the abstraction layer increases. How can you be sure that it isn't the code itself but rather the compiler that is responsible for the inefficient code? Did you actually compare the assembly output? I'm extremely worried about this new trend of progressive credentialism. For a long time, I've wanted to delve into robotics as a future venture. Robotics pieces many different hard and soft techs together. I'm worried that I might run into trouble with the various accrediting groups, if this trend keeps up. Actually, this is the reason I'm in soft dev. It's extremely hard to regulate something so concept-based because concepts evolve very quickly. By the time a law is enacted, who knows how quickly it will become either unapplicable or defunct...

How many muslims did you harbour in your house? None? RACIST!!! How many mexicans did you harbour in your house? None? RACIST!!! Here's a 2nd reason: FOR THE LULZ Then why was it in the original version of Obama's auto-biography that Obama was born in Kenya? The Quran explicitly encourages lying to infidels, and infiltrating them to use "the wombs of their women as our swords". Also, you know... they do have a disproportionately high rate of terrorist violence. How many more people are you willing to sacrifice in the name of diversity? Think hard and well, cuz their blood is on the hands of people like you. A foetus has distinct genes, fingers, heart, brain, and limbs from the mother. It's a different person. Therefore, abortion is baby murder. Not An Argument.

Idk what that means
-
Flux density (which is what the graph tracks) has nothing to do with volume. Pressure has everything to do with volume. I think you are confusing flux density with pressure.
-
Yes, CO2 pressure. Not flux density.
-
The only atmospheric experiment I can think of is where they send a balloon up in the air. The balloon expands (cooling the gas) to the point where it eventually pops. I did. It refers to flux density (the rate of energy transfer), not CO2 density. Has nothing to do with gas volume.
-
I see. I'm just a soft dev so I've never had to use sysml directly, but I'm guessing the domain model UIs run it on the backend... As for Fortran, the only time a dev (even the profs) ever mentioned Fortran to me was either as a quick history lesson or the butt of a joke. Is Fortran used to avoid having to re-write the existing codebase into C / C++? Or is it actually preferred to the more modern techs?
-
sysml, Fortran, AND extendsim.... It's very interesting to speak with more experienced engineers. Sometimes I find that the wider the age gap gets, the less of a common language / tech we use.
-
yes. People think of these models as something like a derived mathematical identity (a true-by-definition relationship like d = v * t). In reality it is a set of instructions. Who chooses those instructions those instructions? The devs. interesting, are you referring to the System's engineer college major, or literally the engineer that interfaces the techs with each other?
-
Nope. Spellcheck is built-in to html, by setting spellcheck="true" (as is the case if you right-click inspect in the text area you write your post). It's up to the runtime environment (in this case your browser) to interpret it how it sees fit.

You can live a perfectly happy life in the trades. Not everyone needs to be an astronaut.
-
Yes. Because the "experiments" they ran were about heating gas in a tank. So the results cannot be extrapolated to the atmosphere. I did. Again, this tracks temperature vs CO2 concentration. Notice how they make no mention of volume? That's because they assume volume is constant, aka a tank. So your graph has no relation to the environment, but they don't mention it. That's their sleight of hand. Very dishonest of them if you ask me. In the atmosphere, higher pressure air expands (volume increases), which cools the air down again.
-
Gas tanks don't have clouds or feedback loops or temperature gradients; they are also simple enough to be used as examples for high school physics. What does a gas tank have to do with the atmosphere? My argument still stands. The atmosphere is not a gas tank. The greater the heat, the greater the pressure, and thus the faster that the gas moves up which cools the air via decompression.
-
Can you quote me passages? Because I don't know which you are referring to and I didn't find anything bigoted there... Also, no. He has never been bankrupt. Out of the gazillion businesses he has, a few businesses have failed, not Trump. By comparison, the average entrepreneur fails 10 times before achieving one success. Sounds like he's doing better than most.

Libertarians should not align with the Alt-Right or support Trump
Erwin replied to jrodefeld's topic in General Messages
Couple reasons, history and context. The history is because the "alternative right" originally referred to not just white separatists but also to what we today refer to as the Alt Light (e.g. Pat Buchanan, Gavin Mcinness, etc). As for context, the Alt Right is a reactionary movement meant to be an alternative to the Neocons (neo-cucks? lol) and the libs. White separatism was never a reactionary movement, it just was. As for ethnostates, consider this. An-Caps like Stefan are generally referred to as Alt Light. Most Alt Lighters are statists too. We aren't. So no, I fail too see the statist association. -

Noooooo. 100% racial identity. In the words of Jared Taylor himself: -

Living* men Those stats are about the survivors The suicided men don't tend to enter the actuarial stats, cuz... you know... they're dead
