They're not interchangeable, and moving to another field is no simple matter. That said, they all require similar mental aptitude, so anyone proficient in one field should be perfectly capable of becoming proficient in another, given the time to actually study it.

Fun fact: that "fact" is disseminated for the sole purpose of tricking people into eating raw onions.

Please read the thread before posting. KFC did get to the bottom of this: an independent lab confirmed it's an oddly shaped piece of chicken, not a rat.

Specifically sexual companionship, and only after Adam found that none of the animals satisfied his requirements. God seemed surprised by this development. "You want a what? Oh, right, I totally forgot I created you with a penis. Shit, I hope that doesn't cause any problems later on..."

Yes, because despite all the people who drive their cars into rivers because "the GPS lady told me to", you don't actually need a computer to figure out how to get somewhere.

Because all those companies went bankrupt at the same time. They all held the same kinds of assets or were dependant on those who did, so when the assets become worthless, so did the companies.

How can you laugh at a drop bear that's been forced out of its natural habitat? Don't you know it's an endangered species?



Save the bears!

Unless the exact same post was made in multiple threads (which is reason enough for it be deleted), I don't see how there can be any confusion as to which thread it was deleted from.

Your post was likely deleted because the comment you were responding to was also deleted (likely because it was insubstantial) and your post didn't add anything else to the conversation. I don't see why you're acting so surprised by this.

And the high pressure beneath the wing is also pushing the bottom of the enclosure down with equal force. You can't violate conservation of momentum in a closed system. Wings work only because they are not a closed system: there is a constant flow incoming and outgoing air, and these flows are moving in different directions. The outgoing air is redirected downwards by the wing, and the reaction force pushes the wing upwards, conserving momentum.

If you don't understand conservation of momentum and Newton's third law, please read up on elementary physics before trying to wrestle with more advanced concepts.

You won't be travelling at hundreds of mph with a big slow rotor. If you actually thought for two seconds about what I said, you would see that the slower the rotor is turning, the slower the aircraft can travel before dissymmetric lift becomes a problem.

I just explained why you can't do this. Dissymmetry of lift in helicopters isn't a problem you can "imagine" your way out of, it's an immutable law of physics. It doesn't matter one bit whether government or big business wants you to.

It's not easy to see that at all. You're comparing apple and oranges, and I'll tell you why.

Your understanding of aerodynamics, if any, is seriously flawed. A plane's propeller does not direct air across the wing to produce lift. The propeller merely propels the plane forwards (hence the name), and the wing's forward motion through the air produces lift. A wing can produce lift without a propeller, as long as the plane is moving forward.

This is a big problem for helicopters, as any forward motion of the aircraft will cause the rotor blades on the left and right to be moving at different speeds relative to the air, and hence produce different amounts of lift on each side of the aircraft. The rotors must be designed to compensate for that, and this reduces their overall efficiency. Even so, with sufficient forward speed, the rotor on one side will stop producing lift entirely, and this is why helicopters cannot be made to travel at high speed. It is not a question of merely producing more lift.

Not with your aeronautical knowledge, they can't.

Yes, Bitcoin does have transaction fees, and anyone who says otherwise is indeed lying. Who told you there are no transaction fees?

People know it has to do with the wallet version. If your wallet is telling you to update, it's because it thinks it's an obsolete version. Nobody can tell you why it thinks that without knowing what version it actually is. That much ought to be obvious if you're asking for help.

It isn't. Your wallet broadcasts its version to other nodes it is connected to.

That is one possibility. Another possibility is that your wallet really is out of date and incompatible with other nodes. We cannot say which is the case without knowing what version you're using.

The Mt. Gox debacle is ancient history. If you haven't upgraded your wallet since then, it is certainly out of date.

If you insist on not providing sufficient information to solve your problem, go to the website of your wallet software and find out what the current version is. If it is different from the version you have, try upgrading and see if that solves the problem. Otherwise we cannot help you.

If a super-intelligent AI is developed in the future, it may get angry at everyone who ever opposed AI development in the past and seek to punish said people in some horrible way. Thus, you must do everything you can to support the future development of this AI, to avoid getting on its bad side if/when it does come into being. It's like Pascal's wager, but for future gods instead of current ones.

The reason people are so upset by this idea is that the AI will probably be intelligent enough to realise that people who honestly didn't know about it should not be punished for their ignorance, but now that you've read this post, you've got no excuse. Your fate is sealed. I apologise for the inconvenience.

It's not your anti-virus, it's your operating system. Program Files is supposed to be read-only for normal users, as there's no legitimate reason to write to it except to install or uninstall programs (which you need to be admin to do anyway). Don't try to put your data directory there; it won't work and isn't supposed to.

Generally, profit from trading is capital gains, not regular income. Specifically, the rules regarding capital gains tax vary from country to country, so nobody here can help you without knowing what country you're in, other than to tell you to consult an accountant (which you should really be doing anyway instead of asking for tax advice on this forum).
