Math problem :
Knowing that Kuwait building fire kills 49 Indian workers, how many Kuwaiti workers would be killed in an Indian building fire ?

- Comment on Students’ Leaf Blower Suppressor To Hit Retail 1 month ago:
We agree that the -12dB is what’s important for human hearing … Now, you may agree that the 94% reduction is what counts regarding engineering // fabrication // design.
- Comment on Students’ Leaf Blower Suppressor To Hit Retail 1 month ago:
Well, 93.75% to be more exact. Did you recalculate it yourself ?
- Comment on Students’ Leaf Blower Suppressor To Hit Retail 1 month ago:
no.

what they did :“Our product takes in a full blow of air and separates it,” said team member Leen Alfaoury. “Some of that air comes out as it is, and part of it comes out shifted. The combination of these two sections of the air makes the blower less noisy.”
Adds Chacon: “It ultimately dampens the sound as it leaves, but it keeps all that force, which is the beauty of it.”
Their design cuts the most shrill and annoying frequencies by about 12 decibels, which all but removes them, making them 94% quieter.
- Comment on Hearing is be-leafing: Students invent quieter leaf blower 1 month ago:
No, not the same … in your paragraph you describe an increase of the frequency at a level human hearing do not perceive while the other made cancellation of a given frequency using phase shifting and recombination.
- Comment on Microsoft offers to relocate nearly 10% of China-based staffers to the US or allied nations — AI and cloud engineering exodus from China begins 1 month ago:
from your link : “WinRAR is a Windows-only program.”
… you are right that it was created by someone else in an independent company but then distributed by M$ … the important part for me is that it came after PKZip and took its place, and is worse. - Comment on Microsoft offers to relocate nearly 10% of China-based staffers to the US or allied nations — AI and cloud engineering exodus from China begins 1 month ago:
Likewise, in 1995 M$ made WinRAR. it took the place of a much better product that was PKZip which existed since 1989. Since then I always see crooked things in each of their products and predatory commercial moves.

Entanglement of nanophotonic quantum memory nodes in a telecom network
www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-07252-z
a bit of the abstract:
By integrating efficient bidirectional quantum frequency conversion of photonic communication qubits to telecommunication frequencies (1,350 nm), we demonstrate the entanglement of two nuclear spin memories through 40 km spools of low-loss fibre and a 35-km long fibre loop deployed in the Boston area urban environment, representing an enabling step towards practical quantum repeaters and large-scale quantum networks.

I tested it so to see some of its “honesty” limitations (against denouncing wrong beliefs) and found it quite fun … So, I made a couple of posts about it.

Hi adONis,
a “block” is not a “ban”. e.i. : if I have account ABC and from that ABC account I block user 123 then, from ABC I cannot read anything posted by 123 but I would be able to read 123’s posts from my other accounts (and so would anybody else). - Comment on Drones from American startups have been deemed glitchy and expensive, prompting Ukraine to turn to alternatives from China 2 months ago:

You are confusing the units : the value for aerogel is for a 1 m thick wall, while the value for your glass blocks is for 16 centimeter (one block thick). So an error of 16/100 ratio (or 100/16).

since I forgot what I was saying here 4 months ago I read the whole thread again and basically what I said is that I agree with what you said then (4 months ago) and I added a couple of references//ideas to make this point stronger.
Also, I have no idea why you did receive this notification only today, 4 months after the discussion. I guess the Lemmy software is buggy since for my account I did not receive some notifications in a few instances where someone replied to some of my comments and I just happened to see those replies anyway since I was reading all again.
take care, 👍
