So, I was kind of correct... but also not quite correct enough!

Interesting that the screen has such an aggressive curve, but the scanlines and text box are relatively straight.

Ah yes, the solution is to give a few students in each poorly-funded school district the opportunity to go to a well-funded private school instead of just funding the public schools.

The charter school grift is evolving.

What kind of infographic is that? Convection in large bodies of water? I'm not familiar :(

I like to imagine that the childbots are made in the image of the parentbots, and the childbots eventually are tasked with picking out preferred larger parts as a growing rite.

Cool to see this come up! I recently had to write a (mock) proposal regarding different efforts to store excess green energy and I had a blast reading about gravity batteries and pumped hydro. Hopefully, these projects come along sooner than later, as widespread adoption will take much longer than the first several implementations.

Another neat tidbit I learned while researching pumped hydro is that hydroelectric dams actually use the remaining inertia of the spinning generators to pump water back up the dams, which is much like the idea of regenerative braking in EVs.

For the 2nd one, better safe than sorry. You would feel like more of a dumbass if you heard a story in the news about a gas leak fire, or some other form of damage/injury/death.

If 0/0 is NaN, then does that mean 0*NaN = 0*0/0 = 0?

If you do enjoy the gameplay loop of monster hunter in general, that humble bundle is very nice to have. Good value there, lots of hours to be had in both games + both DLCs.

Shouldn't FF16 also be on this list? Given that FF7 Rebirth will almost definitely see a PC port, I don't think the ongoing development of an FF16 PC port should exclude it from the list.
