I only know how long bald eagles burn for.
How do I convert microwave hours to bald eagle burn time (in number of football games including all dead ball times and the halftime shows)?

In my experience, a Scheduler is something that schedules time on the CPU for processes (threads).

So 10 processes (threads) say "I need to do something":
2 of those threads are "ready to continue" because they were previously waiting on some Disk IO (and responsibly released thread control while data was fetched).
1 of the threads says "this is critical for GPU operations".
1 of those threads self declares it is elevated priority.

The scheduler decides which of those threads actually gets time on an available CPU core to be processed.

Yay, decentralised and immutable!

Data integrity at source: If the BEA’s initial data is wrong (as sometimes happens with revisions), blockchain only makes the error permanent until corrected with new updates

Oh, so... Like previously just publishing a pdf on a website, then.
I guess it means they can't hide revisions. Which is what archive.org (and the us government equivalent that archives government sites) provided when the government just published the pdf.

At least it's decentralised!

Over-reliance on oracles: Chainlink and Pyth are powerful, but their centrality creates new concentration risks. If they malfunction or face attacks, critical data feeds could be disrupted.

Gotcha, still has centralised services.

Quotes taken from https://www.ccn.com/education/crypto/gdp-on-blockchain-us-government-data-bitcoin-ethereum-other-networks/ which seems to have the best technical info I could find

Still not much information. I'm presuming an "oracle" is something that gives you a hash of the "immutable" data, so you only have to pay to get that hash recorded on a blockchain instead of however many kB of PDF.

The whole "well, it's already broken: what's the worst I can do?" is such a liberating position to be in.

“The United States has unilaterally and repeatedly provoked new economic and trade frictions, exacerbating uncertainty and instability in bilateral economic and trade relations,” the statement said. “Instead of reflecting on its own actions, the United States has groundlessly accused China of violating the consensus, a claim that grossly distorts the facts.”

That is such a wonderfully diplomatic way of saying "stop being a fucking idiot, your words have meaning and these are the consequences. Grow up".
Even just "grow up", tbh.

As much as I dislike the amount of reliance the world has on China (for the labour conditions there, the nature of their government to impose dodgy practices, generally speaking not being a "good egg"), China seems like the only trading bloc (although not a bloc, I guess... Maybe "trading entity") that can unilaterally stand toe-to-toe with TACO and win. So, good on china.

Just give the migrants $100k each?
Where DOGE on all this? I presume rescheduling NASAs priorities to mars, Department of Transports priorities to Teslas, and making sure the FCC is pushing starlink... no doubt

Not a concrete expert, but dead bodies. They decompose, can create pockets of pressurised gas, and leave a hollow cavity of no structural strength.

Source: Me. I made it up, but seems plausible.

Military contractors advertise on the London underground because MPs, MI5 and MI6 have plenty of staff who commute.
Plenty of public servants use social media.
In Scotland, Scottish Water (a publicly owned nationalised company) has to advertise.

It's not necessarily about selling new products, but maintaining awareness and keeping up opinion.

I'm going to start a meme crackpot theory.

Torque doesn't exist.
Cars move because of the exhaust gasses.

"What about trucks with an exhaust that points up?" I hear you ask, well why are they always bent over at the top to point backwards?

Tractors that have an exhaust on the top use it to keep the tractor on the ground, otherwise the forces of dragging things would cause the tractor to float off the ground. But the exhaust is pointed backwards slightly, other wise it wouldn't move. The small backwards pointing force explains why tractors are so slow.

Electric cars are CGI, and part of the conspiracy to hide the fact that torque doesn't exist.

Ooh, russian ships above the water with functioning engines. Well done Russia!

I guess the options are:
Put them out and fix them.
Leave them alone.
Kill them more quickly.

Nobody is going to stand and watch (or even speed up) something like that without suffering massive trauma themselves.
Right or wrong, they were doing what they thought best and what I imagine most think is best.
Anything else is academical

In addition to the expansion loops, the straight sections of pipes are probably not even attached to the supports to allow large sections of the pipes to move, transferring the movement to the expansion loops.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Alaska_Pipeline_System

The trans-alaska pipeline has whole sections built on special skates to reduce the chance of damage from earthquakes (see "Construction" section).
It also merely rests on its supports to allow for expansion (see "Technical Details" sections).
In fact, the trans-alaska pipeline changes in length by 5 miles over the course of the year, and was built 11 miles too long to account for this.
