Teens in particular are naturally shifted to later sleep and waking. Thinking back, I don't have much memory at all of high school before 2nd period. Not surprising, I was on my feet but still practically sleeping.

It was mostly people in northern states in the darkest days of winter.

I was in 2nd grade in the southern U.S. the year Nixon had us stay on DST for a while. My friends and I really enjoyed the change. It was dark(-ish) when we walked to the bus stop, but we got to take flashlights to school (much more exciting when you're 7 years old!).

You missed the key word "usable" Daylight hours while people are stuck in a dingy cubicle are not usable. Daylight hours after work are.

FFT didn't exist for another decade.

On what basis do you draw that conclusion?

On the basis that a woman from the Radiophonics Workshop innovated a technique?

Perhaps you are going to argue Einstein was a moron because Noether figured out the relationships between symmetry and conservation laws.

I know there are some idiots here, but frankly you are one of the worst.

No they aren't "guesses", and nobody goes by what a single model predicts. That's not the way you use models in this sort of simulation.

Climate latency is around 40 years, so if 2025 is when the climate trajectory passed the point of no return, then the actual prediction is that Miami will be in serious trouble by 2065 and that no viable path to Miami recovering will exist, that CO2 won't drop to levels that permit such a recovery within the remaining lifespan of any part of Miami.

Honestly, I don't know if you've been watching too many Penelope Pitstop cartoons or too much CSPAN. It's getting hard to tell the difference.

He was from West Virginia?

Yes, that's perfectly obvious. If you check the Oramics machine from 1958, that's basically what it was.

If you had specialists do so, I'd agree.

This is why programmers do not check every corner case, they hire QA enginers to check every corner case.

You hire generalists to see how interactions between technologies impact things.

Daphne Oram's Oramics machine turned hand-drawn squiggles that were the information-bearing portions of a spectrogram into recognisable audio. And, like I said, that was 1958. A spectrogram, as others have noted, is an image.

It’s not quite a nothingburger if your administrator simply cannot grasp that concept and build proper safeguards, like time-delaying any requests for change.

Now that this is a known weakness, let’s see who responds properly. Because propagation is fixed by patience and Greed infamously ain’t got time for that shit.

I've never seen generators on cell towers, and the batteries last a few hours. They're meant to cover the occasional western world power outage, not a major one.

On the upside, AI lets anyone make a movie.
On the downside, AI lets anyone make a movie.

Including people who have terrible taste in plot, style, and everything else.

There's some genuinely good stuff out there - Gossip Goblin's work for example. But this is....

I'll just say, there's far better things that one could have spent half a million dollars on...
