| Posted: 17 Nov 2017 04:43 AM PST I am talking about the whole file, not just character count times the number of digits to represent a character. How many digits are representing a for example ms word file of 100 words and all default fonts and everything in the storage. Also to see the contrast, approximately how many digits are in a massive video game like gta V? And if I hand type all these digits into a storage and run it on a computer, would it open the file or start the game? Okay this is the last one. Is it possible to hand type a program using 1s and 0s? Assuming I am a programming god and have unlimited time. [link] [comments]  |

| Wouldn't electric cars be way more efficient if they had multiple gears? Posted: 17 Nov 2017 05:01 AM PST I could imagine that an electric motor could save some power by simply having it run at slower speeds. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 17 Nov 2017 03:37 AM PST So, we know magnetic fields are pretty damn good for protecting stuff from radiation. We also know that humans tend to turn into a mushy goo when they have too much exposure in either duration or intensity (or both) to radiation. We also know that we can make some really powerful magnetic fields - enough to contain nuclear fusion. And we also know how to use nuclear fuel to generate high amounts of power. So what is stopping us from putting it all together and equip spacecraft, especially those carrying crew with a magnetic field radiation shields ? Obviously, there is a ton of math to do, but I haven't heard anyone ever talking about this even theoretically. Came up in my head while watching An Year in Space with Scott Kelly - https://www.pbs.org/video/year-space-year-space-full-episode/ [link] [comments]  |
| How far away can radio broadcasts travel before becoming unreadable? Posted: 16 Nov 2017 07:15 PM PST For example, Winston Churchill's "Fight them on the beaches." broadcast. How many lightyears, if any, could that particular radio broadcast travel before it becomes too distorted/weak to be able to be read? [link] [comments]  |

| In what ways, if any, are a woman's eggs affected by unhealthy habits prior to pregnancy? Posted: 16 Nov 2017 11:53 AM PST I've read that a woman is born with all her eggs already stored in her body, contrary to men's sperm being constantly recycled. If a man doing certain drugs can have an effect on the sperm and embryo that sperm conceived, what effects do unhealthy habits (drugs, alcohol, etc.) have on all the eggs already in a woman's body and the embryos they become?

| Why doesn't 0.1+0.2=0.3 in java? Posted: 16 Nov 2017 05:50 PM PST I am new to computer science in general, basically. In my program, I wanted to list some values, and part of my code involved a section of code where kept adding 0.1 to itself and printing the answer to a terminal. Instead of getting 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 ect. like I expected, I got 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.30000000000000004, 0.4 Suprised, I tried simply adding 0.1 and 0.2 together in the program because I couldn't believe my eyes. 0.30000000000000004 So what gives?

| Is there a safe amount of CO2 that can be released without any repercussions? Posted: 17 Nov 2017 05:04 AM PST What is a safe amount of CO2 that can released in the atmosphere so it so doesn't contribute to Global Warming? Edit: is there a calculated value? [link] [comments]  |

| What determines the ideal cruising altitude for an airplane? Posted: 16 Nov 2017 03:00 PM PST I assume various factors such as the shape, size, weight, thrust, the density of air at various heights, etc. play a role. How do these (and any others I missed) factor into calculating the ideal cruising altitude? [link] [comments]  |

| Do exponents on units in dimensional analysis need to be integer values? Posted: 16 Nov 2017 06:50 PM PST A compound unit like a Joule has units of kg * m2 * s-2. Are there any sensible/useful units that make use of fractional exponents like something involving s-1/2 ? What, if anything, would that look like or mean? [link] [comments]  |
| Do wild animals get bitten by highly venomous spiders, in any significant amount? Posted: 16 Nov 2017 04:38 PM PST One hears about people dying from spider bites every so often - how much does this happen to wildlife? [link] [comments]  |
| Why do orbital satalites have launch windows? Posted: 16 Nov 2017 04:35 PM PST I understand launch windows. For when you are exciting the gravity well, but excluding weather why do orbital satalites need launch windows? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 16 Nov 2017 10:26 AM PST Context: I'm a teacher trying to relate neon signs to spectroscopy and the study of distant stars. I have a decent understanding how we can use the Balmer-Rydberg series to calculate values of the emission lines given off by hydrogen, but can we apply this to other elements? What about neon?
