- why is there a space elevatorIn Foundation Discussions28 octobre 2021We are seeing a big chunk of car manufacturing not happening because of shortages of a cheap display chip. So don't be so sure that if something major happened to Taiwan, a major earthquake for example, we wouldn't see a demonstration of what a planet-wide single point of failure looks like. And this isn't just a Taiwan issue. In the electronics industry, there are a number of factories that manufacture a number of essential components and sensors that are required worldwide and aren't made anywhere else. Part of the issue is that we don't see the issue because trade secrets get in the way. So it's hard to estimate what might cause a serious supply-chain freeze and what the consequences could be. I wouldn't rule out the possibility of lives lost in numbers similar to a nuke. If somebody has proof that there is a negligible chance of a planet-wide catastrophic event due to the wrong disaster happening in the wrong place, I'd love to know about it. I do know that supply chains are often compared to traffic, and that when traffic jams happen, they usually start quite suddenly after a time of only slower flow of traffic. I also know that the supply chain traffic has been slowing for about five years now, because I work in the electronics industry. I could point you to the RS Components or the Farnell website and suggest that you look up a few common electronics components and see if you are surprised to find lead times on some pretty common ones, but I don't suppose you know what components would be good to look for, would you? I think it's unlikely that the writers of the show, after putting so much effort into it, have no idea of what kind of bombs were used to bring down the space elevator. But even if my theory isn't canonical (yet), then what? Is there anything to stop me having any notions about antimatter that I like? As long as we can have a conversation that makes sense to me, I'm happy enough.00
- ptz-cameraIn Ideas & Contribution7 septembre 2022PTZ cameras can also be controlled wirelessly. In this case, the controls are similar to the PC software, but you are more likely to use the app on your smartphone or tablet rather than on your PC or laptop honeyoptics.com/controlling-ptz-cameras/. However, the process is a bit more complicated.00
- real estateIn Ideas & Contribution6 septembre 2022Hi. I know how wonderful it is when you do not rent a house or a villa, but just buy it for yourself, even though it costs a lot. To help you out I know a site Halkidiki real estate for sale where I can not just sell you a villa or house already built, and just build from scratch if you want, but I do not think that is necessary.00

- A thread for people who love the show.In Foundation Discussions27 septembre 2022While it might be tempting to turn to an essay writing service for help, there are some important things to remember when dealing with one. First, the service you select must be legitimate. This means it's not illegal to use its services. Essay writing services are not unlike tutoring or advisor assistance (check best of essays writing sservices here https://topwritingreviews.com/ ). They offer writing assistance, proofreading and editing services. They're highly sought after by academics, journalists and writers. Be sure to look for reviews and policies before you make a final decision. You should also choose a site that has samples of its work.00
- Please Explain the Multiple Cleon ReplacementsIn Foundation Discussions11 novembre 2021"So far, we've only seen the Emperor separated from Demerzel to go on his religious pilgrimage, and that doesn't give us any clues on how capable is the Emperor of running the Empire without Demerzel." IMHO, the writers are throwing everything out there. For a person who's been pampered his whole life in a comfortable castle, he takes a huge risk in walking a 100 miles in a sunny desert with no belly fat and no electrolytes to save him in-case he goes into heat exhaustion a/o stroke via dehydration or starvation. The fact about the nanobot removal is a given. But then, we see other versions of him being completely risk averse and doing nothing, much of the time. Brother Dusk has nothing going on in his old age and let's face it, if Brother Dawn really wanted to die, why wear the bracelet before jumping? I believe the writers are keeping the whole independent person vs a predestined clone as a dangling carrot. I suspect they won't resolve it during this season but keep it open ended to woo the audience.0
- Buy FUT 23 Coins at UTnice for additional discounts on selected festivalsIn Foundation Discussions11 octobre 2022This doesn't be guaranteed to infer that you essentially just at any point have one position open. Assuming you had a place that is in benefit in addition to you've moved the following stop past sap transport management (https://kryptinc.com/solutions/supply-chain/sap-transportation-management/)the section level so this exchange can't lose, opening another position is prudent. Anyway having moved that stop is significant.00
- Robotic LawsIn Foundation Discussions7 novembre 2021Yeah, it's another hokey element of this whole episode which I'd criticized in my other posting. By the end of the episode, Zephyr Halima was in effect, defeated. She could no longer make any claims that Cleon(s) [2 to 14] were nothing more than a series of abomination clones of formerly "real" human beings. In effect, her interplanetary speaking career was done and all she could do was to retire to her home planet and probably teach classes on meditation at her local community college. Instead, she's assassinated for no other reason than the Emperor cleaning up loose ends. Sorry, that violates all the Robotics Laws, 1 to 3, and the zeroth one. Halima was not a threat to the continuity of the human species by the end of the episode 8. Ito, hate to say it, is a hapless drone, not the great Daneel Olivaw of the books. And anyone can program a drone to kill people. It's as simple as the following pseudo code base ... Command Line Argument [ InputValue (from Cleon) ]; InputValue = "Halima"; If (Cleon == True) /* Validate the user */ then If (in proximity, $InputValue) { Exec(secrete skin surface poison); } End if; End if; Trust me, it isn't sophisticated computer science. Someone in the DoD has already written it.00

- Absolutely AwfulIn Foundation Discussions4 novembre 2021" I especially like when Salvor starts guessing about her past, and she begins with quite reasonable educated guesses, and then there's that point when she can tell exactly what her mother died of. And I like how it ends as well." A couple of things, first, the Huntress recognizes that Salvor had some psychic abilities and second, she admires her in the way that they're not too distinct in character, if given similar life circumstances. So if the Huntress and Salvor were on the same side, they'd probably end up being best of friends and fight together like sisters. Life didn't present them with that opportunity so that they're rivals. This is a common theme among warrior types, where the opponents aren't a whole lot different from each other.0
- If Hari could make himself into an immortal avatar, why not the Emperor?In Foundation Discussions4 novembre 2021"There is no reason to think that swapping organs is a viable method to extend life much longer than the normal human lifespan. It may not be possible to reverse brain aging, in which case, swapping organs would be pointless." Actually, that work is going on right now and yes, per-fusing one's own harvested adult stem cells (Read: Not embryonic stem cells) has re-generated lungs and even reversed aspects of heart disease. Aside from cancer, what are the major causes of death by the age of 90 or more...? It's pneumonia or cardiac failure. And in terms of genomics, controlling the SIR2 expression can extend life to 140 years. But this wasn't meant to be a discussion of today's state of the art research. I imagine by the year 10000, this work would have been refined a bit more. And sure, a full AI, may or may not be inferior, depending on one's p.o.v. (and now, that's a pure speculation), however, I've also posed the whole life extension thing and then, having older memories implanted to hasten one's development. If you recall the end of Brother Dusk, even in his 90s (or 110s, depending on what the show thinks is his end date), he was working on new ideas. Things he didn't get to, during his lifetime. In other words, in replace of let's call it reincarnation, he'd be able to give his future lives, the wisdom of a person who'd live a full century beforehand. In essence, that's the whole idea of a soul transmitting its consciousness to his next incarnation. Instead, what I see is a bunch of lazy Cleons, all clinging to years 40 to 70, as if those were the only years of a person's life to lead and grow. This is why Dawn is facing his own extermination or flight from the palace because in effect, he's the only person who's actually psychologically evolved in the 4 centuries of cloning but did it in his youth as oppose to old age. "So having wildly varying tech levels between planets is quite understandable, assuming that each planet has different levels of different resources. It does nobody any good to have information, if your planet doesn't have the stuff you need to implement the knowledge. Besides, in the case of Synnax, it seems that something went pretty awry with their religion." Still, ppl on other worlds who use the Internet, let's call it the "NATO"-Trantor planets will find places like "Central African Republic"-Synnax to be backwards and barbaric.0
