  1. I want to understand the logic behind Calculus, can you refer me to some material available online? I have done calculus before (about 2 years ago), and I'm looking for a book on the foundations of calculus, not a book on practical calculus.

     

    Also, what terms should I search for in search engines?

     

    If you would like to talk a bit about the foundations of calculus, that would be really appreciated.

  2. There seems to be an easy solution as it seems to me.

     

    1)

    He will need about 2 hours to watch a 1 hour video. That is if he watches high quality videos for 6 hours a day, he will need about 12 of download time. If you have 2mb/s connection.

    All of it and more can be downloaded at sleep time + school/university time.

    So, worst case scenario, the problem is solved.

     

    2)

    when he wants to do something on demand (download HD clips,) he can always leave you like 30-60KB/s. It shouldn't be a big deal for him, but it can ensure you comfortable web browsing. (web browsing is not like downloading, it takes much less bandwidth.)

     

     

     

    That's how I solve the problem with myself! At night, I download all I want and more. And when I want to browse at night, I leave like 200KB/s for download, and 40KB/s for browsing.

     

    What browsing speed do you have by the way?

  3. Computer Organization, Computer Design, and Computer Architecture; can you tell me the difference between them with examples?

     

    I'll quote my book for it's explanation of the three terms, which I don't understand.

     

    Computer organization is concerned with the way the hardware components operate and the way they are connected together to form the computer system. The various components are assumed to be in place and the task is to investigate the organizational structure to verify that the computer parts operate as intended.

    What are these hardware components? What are some different computer organizations?

     

     

    Computer design is concerned with the hardware design of the computer. Once the computer specifications are formulated, it is the task of the designer to develop hardware for the system. Computer design is concerned with the determination of what hardware should be used and how the parts should be connected. This aspect of computer hardware is sometimes referred to as computer implementation.

    Is the specification like x86, and the design like Pentium 4?

    What are some example hardwares?

     

     

    Computer architecture is concerned with the structure and behavior of the computer as seen by the user. It includes the information formats, the instruction set, and techniques for addressing memory. The architectural design of a computer system is concerned with the specifications of the various functional modules, such as processors and memories, and structuring them together into a computer system.

     

     

     

  4. I don't know who such hype would benefit.

    You mention Joseph Newman. I've seen a similar experiment by an Australian that also made a machine which on one but him could replicate (which produces electricity more than it takes.)

    Also this guy: John Kanzius. But his story is a bit difference, from Wikipedia: "Kanzius admitted that this process could not be considered an energy source". It just seems that the media is/was hyping it!

    Maybe it's just "good" material for media for bringing audience.

     

     

    Anyway, back to HHO, from Wikipedia:

    "Kanzius admitted that this process could not be considered an energy source, as more energy is used to produce the RF signal than can be obtained from the burning gas and stated in July 2007 that he never claimed his discovery would replace oil, asserting only that his discovery was "thought provoking.""

    If that RF signal can be produced using energy other than "burning gas" (i.e. solar heat,) then that may be efficient. (?)

  5. @SM

    I will research the two options.

     

    Thanks for making things easier to me.

     

     

     

    So he was killed but his plans were left? Why would killing him stop production of a water fuel cell that worked?

    I'm not trying to support their claims. You considered Wikipedia a source, and I brought (from the same source) something to consider.

    However, I agree with you but to an extent. The fact that he could do it, doesn't necessarily mean that everyone else can replicate it, unless he released enough information about how to do it.

    Believe me, many have tried to prove him right and they all failed, which is almost the same as being proved wrong. The only conspiracy theorists who still believe in this are people who never tried to duplicate the cells. They lack the knowledge to do so, but they remain convinced they are right.

    If the plans worked, don't you think someone would be making a lot of money with it, in spite of everything the oil companies could do? It's not like the plans require a fortune in start up capital.

    Ummm... he doesn't have to necessarily think of money. But yeah, then, why would he not try to release what he achieved to people to benefit from it!

  6. Need to find a way to contain the H2 and O2 in a safe way, that's the main safety concern.

    Compressing them is the way to contain useful amount of gas- and with compressed H2 comes the risk of explosion

     

    Aha, I understand.

     

    Isn't it possible to do it on the fly? (i.e. generating H2 and feeding the motor at the same time)

     

    Edit: Or maybe doing it on small steps...

     

    I've just seen these videos:

  7. If you already have a strong opinion, then why ask about the science? You obviously just want to argue.
    Argue in favor of whom? The thing is I didn't really believe him even tho I don't know anything about QM, but that Berkley logo at the beginning of the video confused me. I got lost and asked here; I'm not trying to debate.
    Yes. Young Earth Creationists are also allowed to speak at Universities. It just depends on how much they're willing to pay.

    Once I heard the question "is it worth $2500", I knew this was probably gonna be about money, specially that it was followed by mentioned that they made a "university" for that; and even more, they showed the QM guy as if he was Einstein of the decade.
