  • Both Ford and Mercedes own a /8 block of public IP addresses, that is 16 million public IPV4 addresses each

  • 2^10 = 1024 is the soure for ~1/1000.Also, correcting my stupid mistakes :

    nb. of iPv4 = 2(4*8) = 232nb. they have = 224 , so ~16 millions. fraction they have = (224 / 2^32)

    this is ~1/256. Stupid, but ...... less boring than ~1/1024.

  • i agree with what you said with this exception :Clostridium botulinumhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clostridium_botulinum → Microbiology →→ Serotypes (...)However, all types of botulinum toxin are rapidly destroyed by heating to 100 °C for 15 minutes (... )(Heating to) 80 °C for 30 minutes also destroys BoNT.

    Also : toxin is destroyed doesn't necessarily means bacteria is also destroyed.

  • Why is the process of initializing and starting software called 'execute'?

  • Maybe you are right about the origin of fuck. Yet, I do believe language tend to be modified over time in the way I (tried to) described above.

  • You have to understand the impact of euphemism, hypocrisy and modesty to language.

    Example : at one point it was seen as obscene to talk about copulation, coit and fornication. So, for the houses where the king approved fornication, they simply created a modest acronym F.U.C.K. (short for : Fornication Under King's Consent) that later became itself seen as (of course) obscene.Similarly at one point, long ago in history, it was seen as rude to tell a guard// servant// soldier to kill someone else and the euphemism chosen at the time was to say "execute" meaning "carry on" without saying what was to be carried on.This word "execution" is being increasingly seen with that later "capital punishment" meaning ... this might be telling something of our preoccupations and/or obsessions.

  • Amongst other things, Israel, if you recall, made some cell phones to explode, so too kill people they don't like. Or maybe there was something called "Pegasus" that went something like that also ? I would have to do some search to be sure.
