Something like 70% of people have either HSV-1 or HSV-2, I believe. That alone would be unreasonable to manage, assuming you could even wrangle that many people into this imaginary leper colony.

What you're asking is both an ethical and a logistical question.

Yes, you COULD isolate people to eradicate these STDs. But is it ethically/morally correct to do so?

Could you even positively identify 100% of the infected and get them isolated? I don't know that you could. And if you did not, then you are just postponing the eventual outbreak of these diseases further. Possibly worse if people start throwing caution to the wind because they feel safe, and now those infected populations start exploding.

Yes, that is called eugenics, and it is generally frowned upon.

Also, how do you propose we would do that? I feel like from the past few years we should all know that this is not only not a trivial matter, but also basically impossible. We couldn't even get people to take a disease that was killing thousand s of people every day in front of them and majorly disrupted their lives seriously. How do you think people would treat a disease that doesn't affect them in basically any way? What's more, we couldn't even get people to take very simple measures to pyevent it, how do you think everyone would react to what you're proposing?

Thermo - heat

dynam - change

ics - of or relating to, the study of

Thermodynamics. Of or relating to how heat changes. Or slightly rephrased, the study of how energy flows from place to place.

Energy flow is what allows anything to do anything. Keyword being flow -- all the energy in the universe won't help you do anything if it has nowhere with relatively low energy to flow to. A waterwheel set up on a small rushing stream will turn, but the same waterwheel on a glassy smooth sea will not. Studying thermodynamics helps you discover where all the proverbial streams are and how to tell them apart from useless seas.

Thermodynamics' sister, physics, will tell you how things move and bounce around after being kicked off. Thermodynamics tells you what kicked them off in the first place.

>I believe they also generally just came calibrated from the factory, no?

Any serious artist using a computer monitor will calibrate it, normally using a probe and some specialized software that works with it. There's a few different brands out there. The cheaper end is iirc around 150-250 USD, like the Spyder

Lots of people out there already doing their part.

One of my favorite band's songs has the singer complaining she's blue, and then specifying exactly how blue by Pantone number.

There’s a difference between being scared/fear versus being startled.

A big cat won’t fear a kitten and will never feel threatened by it but the kitten can jump the cat and startle it.

Wood is still a problem if it was taken from a recently deforested area (or transported long-distance, but that's true of everything). When taken from a local wood farm, then it's carbon-neutral, yeah.

It's a number that the computer expects incomming data packets to specify for specific destinations. It lets computer know which running program to send the packet to. There's many programs that simultaneously run on a computer. It is not omniscient, it needs a number to know where to send the packet further.

When a country receives a phone call, they need a specific phone number to know which person to connect. Phone number in this case is like a port. And country like a computer.

Which is fine until Pantone updates their Bridge book and create new CMYK match formulas.

You probably can if you choose the correct color space and color transforms and reproduction devices but such a color pipeline is not easy, fraught with pitfalls and the easier way is to just use the system they devised. That’s exactly why Pantone exists. Inherently there’s nothing in an rgb description that would prevent it from working.

If countries don't have their own currencies, then they lose tools that help them out of recessions or slow inflation... ability to increase/decrease money supply, using weak currency to export way out of recession.

If you look at what happened to Europe after the 2008 great recession, you'll see how a strong Euro hurt weaker European countries' recovery (Greece, Spain).

Am a printer. We use CMYK not RGB. Most Pantene colours call for white ink. I'll take a picture of our colour swatches in a few and upload it for you.

Yes, just to add that Entropy has different units. Entropy is usually multiplied by absolute temperature to compare to heat.

The concept of “Free Energy” (Gibbs) is Enthalpy minus Absolute Temperature times Entropy. The free energy helps determine whether or not you are at equilibrium. The effect of entropy is higher at higher temperatures.

The answer is probably 'nearly'. Like, l'esprit may translate into 'the force which animates' - which could be mind or soul (I'm not a native french speaker - native speakers jump in!). This is sort of the difficultly in translation, l'esprit will have different connotations to a native speaker compared to mind/soul for an English speaker. The meaning is also going to be context sensitive for a given passage. When you're reading just keep in mind the translated words may have a broader connotation or a connotation that isn't native to you. English and French share a lot of roots though, so it's not so bad!

...pretty sure he used neither word.

Fascades can be made out of real brick, its just thinner.

I’m not sure that exists? Maybe someone smarter than me can help out here; I almost failed QED in grad school LOL. But iirc we’d need a better understanding of quantum gravity. As my old professor would say “shit gets real weird at that scale”

I want to stop the spread of disease not drain the enjoyment out of life, Jesus fucking christ. You could do it in one generation if we stopped fucking altogether.

It is my understanding that RGB color space is for projected color (created with light--all colors mixed gives white), while CYMK colors are for ink (all colors mixed give black). This is why RGB doesn't always transfer correctly to CMYK.

In other words, and others have said here, what you see on your monitor may not be what you see when you print out the image.

so these are synonyms?

I didn't downvote you, just posted to explain. Yeah my wording was terrible, so thank you for the chance to explain it a little bit better.

Yes, and the ports exist at layer 4 of the transmission protocol. So it's not hardware related at all. They exist in the headers (just a few bits) of the packets that are being sent back and forth. So, to continue the example above, the ports are not a component of the apartments themselves, it's just written on the envelope of any mail or packages sent to and from those apartments.

No need for the downvote mate, your wording was terrible - it literally reads as 'supposedly fair' that back of house gets a share.

I absolutely agree that subsidising poverty wages with customer generosity is shameful, as is people needing social security top-ups to subsidise tax-dodging megacompanies' shit wages.
