If that's what she said, it's tragic other than funny. This administration of sad clowns, old thieves, and incompetent assholes (except perhaps the finance minister) has to go. The sooner the better. And i say it as an Italian who lives in LA but goes back yearly and still loves his country.
You need to learn MATLAB early on, since MATLAB and Simulink are the tools that the automotive industry uses the most for engine modeling and control, and to generate the low-level code that ends up in the ECUs.
It's great that something can be disproved in physics these days, it means that physics it's still alive as a science. I hope it's true.
While the Chinese government IS corrupt and totalitarian, (and you might call it oligarghy), i would still classify it as a government that has big power, not as a corporation. They have 50 years economic deployment plans (no corporation usually bothers to do long-term thinking), and they seem (to me at least) to care about the well being and instruction of the people or things like growth and redistribution of resources, if anything for self preservation. E.g. they also do stuff like funding universities left and right, worrying about basic research and the like.
Heck, they actually own several corporation. The difference between to own and being owned is whether decisions are dictated by short term profits or not, and for now it definitely seems not. Actually i think the staggering success of the Chinese economics politics in the last decades is that they have made use of free market rules (capitalism, if you like that definition) BUT the government has serious power to dictate the rules and distribute the resources at will. Whether it will stay like that or even Chinese government will eventually be owned by corporations it's early to say.
The fact that human rights for common people in china are not existent or not enforced does not seem to play a big part one way of another. In fact while you can make the case that human rights are sometimes a limit to corporate behavior in the US, (but that is a very optimistic view IMO), you can also make the case that corporations in the US are treated as people, so they can also use "people" rules to have it their way, in addition to paying lobbyists to create the rules they want.
While this is not implemented natively, (or at least not until you use the fixed point tools to auto-generate some code for a 64bit machine), you can do a lot of fixed point math with the fixed point toolbox:
For example:
>> x=fi(5,1,64,0,'SumMode','KeepLSB');
>> y=fi(23,1,64,0,'SumMode','KeepLSB');
>> x+y

It is true that you need the fp toolbox to do that, though.
I really don't get how 248 m is considered "very deep". For a reference the Titanic lies at 4000m depth, and there are points in the pacific ocean where the depth is around 13000 m
Maybe there is a reason why it says so, i just don't see it
actually
After a certain level, too much information is even worst than too little.
