  • In NL we call it a wildrooster, which roughly translates to "wild animal grate," but more literally could be interpreted as "venison toaster."

    Also, its name then focuses on being for wild animals instead of cattle.

    NINJA EDIT: Looks like veerooster is an accepted other name, which specifically translates to cattle grid. I guess which one you use depends on whether you're trying to control sheep or cows vs. boars or deer.

  • Fun fact, you can have a completely different game now by changing the language of the notation.

  • I heard there is talk of a projects for the EU to increase its digital sovereignty. Now would be a great time for those projects to come to fruition.

    As for me, if this means that there'll be an EU-wide reboot of Hyves, I'd be thrilled. Extra so if, on the back-end, it works on a Federated system.

  • According to that article, someone tried reacting it with just about anything he could find in the lab, and if it weren't for the fact that it's documented in a published paper, one could never be convinced that those experiments are the work of anyone other than a completely deranged scientist. The author of this article claims to have run out of expletives before finishing the second page.

    Also stated in this article, and converted for your convenience, reacting FOOF with H2S will yield about 1.8 MJ/mol of excess thermal energy.

    Most chemists, when you say "fill a reactor vessel at 700 °C with 300 torr of oxygen" and they notice a tank of fluorine gas in the room, will interrupt you and say "no you won't."

    Not while I'm within a mile of this lab. Two miles if I'm downwind.Unspecified chemist, paraphrased from the article

    1. Load the capsule onto a ship in 2024.
    2. Sail to the easternmost point of the international date line and stop just before crossing.
    3. At midnight, open the outer box.
    4. Immediately cross the date line and then sail along it on the 2024 side, aiming for the westernmost point of the line.
    5. While in transit, open the inner box
    6. ???
    7. Profit!...?

  • xkcd #3026: Linear Sort

    Jump

  • Depends on how and/or if you want to curve future changes. Going 1e5.9, 1e5.8, 1e5.7, ... will curve logarithmically, while 9e5, 8e5, 7e5, ... will curve linearly within each power of ten, then get a discontinuity at 1e5 and go 9e4 and scale linearly at a different rate.

    Of course, you'll have to be an absolute nerd to find that a problem and there's a nonzero chance that I'm such a nerd and I just admitted my guilt 😅

  • Sleep(1e5.9[...]), where [...] is everything else, and hope that the compiler or interpreter can handle non-integer exponents for this type of scientific notation.
