I disagree. I told my wife to "calm down" once, and it worked perfectly. She went from emotional to very calm and focused.
It might have been at the incongruity that I would actually dare say that, or just the time for her incandescent rage to move to fully focusing on me, but she DID calm down (for 2-3 seconds).
I suspect both websites are maintained by the same team (assuming they are maintained). For one of the (supposedly) most technically adroit countries in the world, their ICT is truly crap.
Looking back at the history of England. We have had wave after wave of immigrants/invaders. Each wave brought a period of tension. That period was followed by a period of innovation.
The new people, with new views means old ideas are re-evaluated. New skill, flavours and modes of thought became part of our culture.
Even our language improved. Part of English's power is the level of nuance with word choice. A loft of that comes from melding multiple root languages in.
They are goons, but programmed goons. If you play to the programming then you will get their desired response. By forcing them outside their programming, they have to improvise.
The smarter ones realise shooting first is a bad idea, politically. The stupider ones just want out, and notice the smarter ones seem similarly inclined.
Staying within the programming is a lose-lose situation for the protestors. You need to get outside the patterns to get new results.
It's also worth noting that this is a very American thing, not a universal one. Your police are very broken, and in desperate need of an overhaul.
For that to work, you need enough firepower to actually win. Anything short, and it will be a bloodbath, on your side.
By approaching while very obviously not being a threat, it jamms their training, and forces them to think. Once they are thinking, they likely REALLY don't want to be the ones to start shooting at American protesters.
I'll check it out, next time I get a chance to fire it up. Unfortunately, I hate the teleport mechanism of vr games. I love hurtling through the water. Unfortunately, that also makes me motion sickness. I'm slowly training myself out of it, but it takes time.
As a parent myself, I'm now doubly amazed at how few cases of forgetting happen. It's so easy to do, and your brain is reduced to blomonge by sleep deprivation.
FYI, the "baby on board" signs aren't generally meant as "don't crash into me" signs, but "assume the driver is drunk and distracted" signs. Having been there, I try and give them plenty of space!
They were basically given the KSP1 codebase and told to rewrite it to be better. However, KSP1 was still being developed, and they didn't want to demotivate the KSP1 team. Therefore they were banned from even telling them it existed, let alone ask for help or advice with the existing codebase.
You're on Lemmy, so I'm assuming you're of a geeky mentality. If so, a local hackspace/hackerspace/makerspace would be a good bet.
On paper, my local one is a communal collection of tools we can all use. In practice however, it's an excellent social group for fellow weirdos. We just also have some really fun toys to use, when we need them.
Its part of iterative improvement. The resonance causes the beam to spread out, which both makes getting results harder and losing more particles in route. The resonance is caused by the magnets used being imperfect.
The point of the article is they have created a model that predicts these resonances accurately. This will be of limited benefit to them, though it will help clean up some data. The big advantage for future constructions is by knowing how the field becomes imperfect, measures can be taken to correct for it. This will make future particle accelerators better. The same problem will occur in larger fusion reactors. By studying this now, they can be improved before they are even built.
"In theory there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is a huge difference!"
It's better used as a training aid. It's ok to turn your phone off, if you wake up to find yourself standing in the kitchen/corridor feeling confused. You're still out of bed.
A mixed group would be better. It shuts down a lot of propaganda spins. It needs to be hard to spin as anything other than patriots Vs fascists (particularly not black Vs white).
