Guidelines to Happiness
Unfounded generalization based on a single example.

Guidelines to Happiness
Immediate examples coming to mind: for the first claim, Robert Phelan, for the second, Richard Feynman.

This is factually incorrect. This is also factually incorrect.

Technology based on extending the range of the Strong Force?
What does prevent the molecules from collapsing to subatomic scales?

Alchemists series; What is it?
No, it should be 7, not 4.

Alchemists series; What is it?
Well, there is one more possibility, nCr(4,0) = 1. If you count all the 'mixtures', then, instead of summation as you did above, you better calculate a simple total directly, which is 2n as @John Cuthber has explained earlier. And if you don't want to count the 'empty mixture' nCr(4,0), then the answer is simply 2n-1.

The distinction between software and hardware
I want to clarify that I am not very comfortable with my own example of Turing Machine. Calling the instructions, a 'software' there is already a stretch. I think that it was von Neumann's idea to have instructions in memory like other data. This was the birth of software.

TFG or That Florida Guy? Either way, can the GOP win in 2024?
Does it make it a "good intension"?

As in staying president after being democratically defeated.

The distinction between software and hardware
No. No. Yes. Turing machine. The tape with cells, the head, the register -- hardware. The set of instructions -- software.
-
The distinction between software and hardware
Yes, I do.

Are there rules for using metaphors? More metaphors?
-
The distinction between software and hardware
No. The principles of computing had to be invented first.
-
The distinction between software and hardware
Yes, certainly. This question, I don't understand. Sorry. Never, if I understand the question correctly.

The distinction between software and hardware
One of my university professors used to say, "I can be a software engineer without ever stepping into the computer room." (It was time when computers were mainframes.) Memory is hardware. Its content is software.

Problem in Taylor and Wheeler's Spacetime Physics
Doing it in SR, f1 = emitted frequency f2 = received and reflected frequency by the car f3 = measured frequency: f2 = f1 * sqrt(...) f3= f2 * sqrt(...) = f1 * sqrt(...) * sqrt(...) = f1 * ... No sqrt(...) in the final calculation.

Neutral simultaneity for two frames.
It is called "a wishful thinking."

Using Saltwater in Toilets
In order not to waste septic freshwater, many households here use it, appropriately filtered, for irrigation.

Problem in Taylor and Wheeler's Spacetime Physics
sqrt() is not needed because it is multiplied twice.

Using Saltwater in Toilets
Desalinated water, by reverse osmosis, is the fresh water this entire island lives on.

and close to the ocean as well. And all that just for flashing toilet?

It will not. No, it is not.

Looks like all you need to do is to find a better word than 'happiness.' Guidelines to satisfaction?
