Per the article, they ~~just~~ developed a faster algorithm for a specific type of material simulation.

You're underplaying it.

As per the article:

This has broad implications for industries that require detailed material analysis, including:

Aerospace and Defense: Improved modeling of material stress and failure in aircraft structures.

Engineering and Manufacturing: More efficient testing of materials for construction and industrial applications.

Military Research: Faster development of impact-resistant materials for defense systems.

Best I can do is outsourced genocide and apartheid so we can pretend that it's weird.

(republican and Christian - but you already knew that)

Of course we knew that. Only republicans and Christians are susceptible to propaganda.

Meeting people at work is the worst way to meet people.

"Oh hey. Our major thing in common is that we're both working for the same business.

Lets hook up so that we can be constantly reminded of work when we see each other.

On top of that: if we break up (which is highly likely) it'll get awkward at the place where we gain money to pay for necessities."

No thanks.

Edit: Also the reason why Korea has a low birth rate isn't due to "not dating at work".

interact meaningfully

Depends on the game. Just because verbal / written communication is turned off doesn’t mean there isn’t meaningful interaction in the game.

TLDR:

Most of these incidents involve males in their late 20s or early 30s, commonly sustaining head, face and limb injuries. There is consistently low helmet use in those injured. Also, about 30% of people who go to hospital with e-scooter injuries have elevated blood alcohol levels. Crashes involving riders under the influence of alcohol are associated with more severe head and face injuries.

Once again alcohol plays its part in clogging up healthcare systems.

I love helmets

This kind of joke pre-dates the internet.

What's the hardest part about ?

Telling your parents that you're gay.

This joke just switches homophobia with virginity shame.

TLDR: They think they'll convert a large enough portion of the premium market (in specific geographic markets) that it'll put them into the top three.

Zielinski said most of the users for the Razr smartphone have converted from using a device that is “not Android based.”

Part of the growth strategy revolves around the premium segment of the market, in which Apple and Samsung dominate.

“We’re going to place as many bets as we can because we think the growth of the Indian population is fantastic, and they’re wonderful people.”

I always preferred the "bait" analogy when describing these tactics.

This makes me sad to be a human being.

Look for the helpers.

Somebody needs to clean up that article and add that section in.

I nominate @Psythik@lemm.ee to add that section into the Curiosity Wikipedia article.

All in favour (upvote below) : all against (downvote below)
