No, the title is poorly worded. They are testing a technology that could redirect an asteroid, there isn't one that is currently a concern.

Would any of that really make it heat more efficiently though? You'd need at least two magnetrons, some sort of computer vision system, and a computer to do the necessary calculations. Even if you could practically produce an interference pattern that's better than a single standing wave, I suspect you'd lose more energy than you save.

I'm happy to accept that I was wrong, in fact this is a very interesting bit of technology! I didn't intend to be rude, unlike you, clearly.

I'd also like to add that beamforming, despite the name, does not actually involve creating a directed beam. As I described the antenna still sends a signal out in all directions - multiple antennae work together to create an interference pattern with a stronger signal where a device is located. While I wasn't aware of this technology, it is not as "directed" as the name implies and wouldn't necessarily have applications inside a microwave oven, especially since the wavelengths used are pretty long, so I don't think they would not have much flexibility to create the kind of precise pattern that cooking something while skipping the empty space would require.

Routers? Do you mean Wi-Fi routers? Because they certainly don't pinpoint waves for each device, they send all traffic out in all directions.

Well then the average is just 1 isn't it. It doesn't make any sense to integer-ise your inputs but leave your output rounded.

Bioinformatics is the last door at the end of the hall. Be warned, we put it down there for a reason.

Look I spoke to Bill Nye and he said all scientists can grow cells sometimes, as a treat.

A pizza is larger than two of another just before it hits 1.5 times the radius (sqrt 2 times, to be exact, about 1.41). So if the radius is 1.5 times bigger, like in the OP, you always know it's more than twice the area.

Wikipedia does explain that Scots and English are sister languages, they both descend from Old English. Neither is a dialect.

I'm not sure where the line between Scottish English (dialect) and Scots (language) is or where this post lies tbh. There's a complicated relationship between those two and standard English.

Scots isn't just an accent, it's a language in its own right.

Although honestly I'm not sure how much of this is Scots and how much is just specific to Scottish twitter lol

So actually having done some more reading this isn't Scots - I'm fairly sure this is Scottish English which is somewhat a merging of Scots with English.

I appreciate where you're coming from, I have ADHD too, but it's true that if the answer is "I can't do that" and "that" needs to be done... Then I shouldn't be the one whose responsibility it is to do it. I've taken on more responsibility in my current job than I can handle, and that was a huge mistake. It is not on my employer to just put up with that because I'm neurodivergent, obviously they have a role to play in supporting me but I also need to understand what my limits and strengths are and work within them.

I'm not sure that's something I want. It takes days to climb Everest! I don't want to play for days just to climb a procedurally generated mountain that probably doesn't have anything on top of it. Or at best has some random shit that you can find everywhere else.

I wish I could agree but it's so so boring.

Inestimable also means "of great value"

Magic medicine means magic ailments. Just like the introduction of antibiotics produced bacteria like MRSA, the use of magic to cure wounds could produce MRSA. That is, magic resistant staphylococcus aureus, as opposed to methicillin.

Curses and other such primarily magical ailments could also be much more difficult to deal with than simple infections/wounds.

They aren't both fully open, but in the day time I breathe normally through both. I don't get the OP scenario any more but I used to, it's a different feeling to the normal cycle in my experience.

I have a love/hate relationship with mine. It does help with allergies and the constant runny nose that I had... But it's genuinely an awful experience lol. I feel like I'm gonna vomit every time.

If I'm asking directions I'm probably not somewhere where I have a good sense of what's north based on local knowledge. Yeah, I can probably find North here in my home town... But I wouldn't know any of that about New York.

Trying to gain any kind of understanding of data based on the outputs of an LLM is like asking a toddler to read shakespeare and analysing what they say afterwards as if it were the bard.
