The Dunning-Kruger effect is a much loved idea by those who think they are smarter than average bears. Unfortunately it's probably just a statistical artifact:

Any French lip readers are invited to tell us what they were saying.

Jumping cholla to the left boob. Ouch.

This is the home of the ghost chile. It takes fire in the belly to pull heavy vehicles.

Good presentation of the big problem with wind and solar for electricity -- they're not predictable over time. For anything close to 100% renewables this has to be addressed. They're right in saying Li-ion is not going to cut it for a number of reasons. Will the solution proposed actually do the job? No idea here.

It's not clear to me what this says about our Nuclear Weapon Stockpile. What was in that inert dummy nosecone, and how did it do?

I found it on Earth 1.0, although it took longer than you might think.

Reminds me of this:

Assembler (for TI DSPs, embedded, no OS)
Scheme (a lisp)
C
Awk
would like to learn a logic programming language (eg Prolog), but have yet to get over starting inertia
will do some Fortran shortly for access to numerical libraries

A little ambiguity can be enticing.

Luck, shmuck. I have an issue with the snatoms; how do you make a double or triple bond? It was simple with the old fashioned ball and spring things.

thanks,

Once you throw in Puerto Rico, you have to do Guam, and the US Virgin Islands, and American Samoa. I probably missed one; is Kwajalein a territory or just a 99 year lease?

Ammonimum nitrate does require a sensitizer in order to be explosive, however this stuff was intended for blasting, so it presumably already had something mixed in with it. The other requirement is a low explosive detonator, eg blasting caps. In this case it was probably a random accident, so not as efficient as a deliberate blasting setup.
