That’s around 500kg of food, or 70kg daily for a week. All you have to do is eat basically 1 body weight per day

I think it probably depends a bit on the color persistence effect. Like when you stare at something then look away, you see the opposite color. This effect probably requires the parts of your eyes that were looking at cyan to move over the white area and create red. So if you look at it without moving your eyes, it doesn’t work

So some time between 1975 and 2000. If only the graphs had some labels near the relevant part of the data…

You’re setting ‘nam’ to whatever the output of the function called ‘input’ is. The string asking who are you is an argument to the ‘input’ function. What that function does happens to be that it prints its argument out to the console, waits for the user to enter text, and returns whatever text was entered as its output. I would recommend actually trying out the code and playing around with it if you want to understand it better.

The other two functions you mentioned work similarly. The output of the function named ‘int’ is a new integer. Usually you will give it a number as an argument to set the value of that integer.

“almost”?

This is exactly the messaging of the oil companies and others who oppose climate action now that it’s too hard to deny. They want us to think it’s hopeless and give up trying to change anything. It’s not too late. Green energy is growing exponentially and has been possibly the fastest technological adoption in history. Millions of people are working on the science and technology to solve these problems. We just need some more collective action at the local and national levels. Carbon taxes, funding for green initiatives, local agriculture, and support for alternative transportation like e-bikes or other PEVs to start

All the management staff at Nijisanji. They’re hiring minimum wage, fresh out of school kids for legal work, project management, translation, talent management… Needless to say, it’s apparently hell for the talents

I have a Baratza Vario and an Aergrind, which are both pretty good grinders. The Vario is a much larger flat burr grinder, and I feel like there’s a pretty drastic difference with the taste of my aeropress coffee with it. Much less bitterness and a cleaner flavor. So I would say it’s worth it. That being said, I also feel like I stop tasting the coffee after a couple weeks with the same beans. So maybe it’s wasted money and effort in that regard. Regardless, I think you would do well with a Fellow Ode or a refurbished Vario

I’m not really sure it was just semantics. He was technically correct the light would get some power right away, but the thing everyone would understand when hearing the main assertion, i.e. the light is fully lit and the circuit is in its relatively steady, final state, is very much not true.

Yes, you’re not wrong. I think massive inequality is an issue in general.
