I wasnât trying to imply that. When I said âfrying the chipâ I meant through bad thermal coupling.
contrary to the old belief, you canât use too much.
Youâre the first person to suggest that, and frankly, I find that counterintuitive. Everything isolates if itâs thick enough. However Iâll also look into that someday and see if thereâs something to it. Thanks again.

Iâm using my old Nokia to this day. And why? Because âsuddenly being stopped even after a few feetâ wasnât âdifficult to mitigateâ for Nokia. In the last 15 years this thing must have survived more than 100 drops, sometimes down a staircase. When I pick up the back cover, the battery and the SIM card, itâs as good as new.

Iâm German. If the pages are a comfortable size, why does no publisher ever use A5 or A4 paper? To quote an answer I gave to another comment here:
Letâs check. I grabbed four random German books from my bookshelf. If youâre right, the pages should either be roughly 30cmĂ21cm (A4) or
15cmĂ10.5cm[Edit: 21cm Ă 15cm] (A5).Book 1: 18cm Ă 11.5; book 2: 19cmĂ12.5cm; book 3: 20.5cm Ă 12.5cm; book 4: 24cm Ă 17cm. None of those conform to the standard.
Another hint that the paper format is weird is that scientific papers on A4 are always either printed in two columns or use the ninths rule for margins, i.e. 1/9 of margin on the inner and upper edges and 2/9 of margin on the outer and bottom edges, essentially throwing away almost half of the page (Iâll admit there are more economic recommendations of 1/11 or 1/13). This is to make the columns narrower to get closer to the target of 60â80 characters per line. Note also that this makes the âusableâ area approximately 20cm long, which is much closer to the Americanâs âLegalâ format (216mm).

almost all consumer printers are for a4.
I never said A4 wasnât the standard. I said itâs not a good one.
books in a4 size actually consist of a3 sheets bound together in the middle. (same with other sized books)

To be fair, A4 yields unwieldy pages that are too long to comfortably read. And when do you ever need the feature to fold an A4 sheet into A5?

Thanks for your post. I learned something.
I do worry about the temperature because I donât like the smell of burnt dust. Also the coating of my table starts decoloring if my laptop sits on it at peak temperature. All that would be avoidable if the fan controls would just raise the fan speeds sooner.

Technically, the oath says not to ever perform an abortion.
I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion.
Though there may be a loophole, since Hippocrates seems to acknowledge the existence of surgeons (âI will not use the knife, [âŚ] but I will give place to such as are craftsmen thereinâ ), and his oath doesnât seem to apply to them.

Iâve noticed that changes to pipe and wire layouts are instantaneous if no new entities need to be built. For instance, this wire layout: ``` âââââ âââââ ``` can be changed to this immediately: ``` âââŹââ âââ´ââ ``` Is the reverse also possible somehow? If I wanted to separate the two networks again, Iâd deconstruct one of the middle wires and rebuild them in the right orientation, without the junction. But that canât be the proper way to do it, right?
Raising a child costs between $13k[2] and $35k[1] per year in the USA â depending on where you live and who you ask. With a minimum wage job ($7.25/hr) you need to work about 5 to 13 hours per day to make that much â before taxes.

I lost my flash drive and need a new one. Transfer speeds donât matter too much. I will mainly use it to create bootable media and to transfer a few files between computers and/or phones (no cloud storage for me).

Iâm a computer programmer. When we test programs, we often use a function called âassertâ to check if the program produces the conditions we expect. For example, this test will fail if the `+` produces an incorrect result: ``` assert( 2 + 3 ).equals(5) ``` Another meaning of âassertâ in programming is âcheck, and take action, if necessaryâ. For instance, the procedure `assertDataPresent()` may check if the data has already been loaded. If it hasnât, the function would try to do so, so that in either case the data is present after the procedure is executed. Which of these meanings is the more common one in regular English? Can âassertâ even be used in these ways outside programming?
