:

people think of silver as really expensive and valuable and yeah it's more expensive than most metals at something like 10~20× the price of say, titanium or tungsten, but it's only like 1% the price of gold

for that matter, people think of platinum as super valuable, more than gold, but it's actually worth less than gold according to wolfram alpha

i wonder

if you put someone super-skilled at piano in front of a digital piano that's set up to delay actually playing the note for something like 250 ms after the key is pressed

would they still be able to play complex pieces?

if you're wondering how you do better than 100%: it's the realization that it doesn't take anywhere near as much energy to *move* heat as it does to *produce* it, so you just move heat from a place you don't need warm (like outside) to the place that you do want to be warm (like inside your apartment)
-F

if you think about it, electric heaters are the only thing that can be 100% efficient

and yet we've still managed to make a better version of them with heat pumps

in French, you're supposed to put a space before a ! or ?, like this !

does that mean that instead of "this!!!!", in French you would write "this ! ! ! !"? Or would you write "this !!!!"?

if anyone ever tells you not to use singular they because it's "confusing" or "not correct english" ,my recommendation is to comply, and additionally insist on not using singular you around them, and when they ask just explain that singular you is newer to the english language than singular they, so it would also probably be confusing to them as they are clearly a time traveller from the 14th century or something
