Mutations happen by chance but the result is not random, because natural selection is not random.

Update: Regarding your first part: A lot of people misunderstand the role randomness plays. Evolution is not random and not a coincidence but a consequence of any system that makes imperfect replicas in an environment that rewards (or punishes) certain traits.

If it's pure nitrogen it's as painless as it can get. Make sure there is no O2 in there, get rid of exhaled CO2. Simple. But still, your country should think about death sentences in general. If you think nitrogen is too inhumane just shoot them im the head with a shotgun from a close distance, that too should do the trick.

I know, that's what the post is about 😉

Joules is unfortunately a vector because it's over a distance in a direction.

What? Joule is an energy unit and energy is a scalar quantity and not a vector. There is no "energy direction" and no "distance".

Edit: even your edit doesn't make sense. Provide a source that says that energy or joule is somehow a vector.

That's actually a great way of putting it 🤣

I'm not sure if you read the post yet but I also have a short section about alternative notations which are less ambiguous or never ambiguous. RPN has the same issue as most notations that are never ambiguous namely that it's hard to read - especially for big expressions.

🤣 I'm not sure if you read the post but I also wrote about that (the paragraph right before "What about the real world?")

Thank you for reading the post, and thanks for pointing that out. Should be fixed and live in the next few minutes.

Update: Also fixed that sentence. Thank you so much.

The full story is actually more nuanced than most people think, but the post is actually very long (about 30min) so thank you in advance if you really find the time to read it.

Not really, if you write the text first and only apply minor changes to fix the grammer (and not rewrite entire sentences) no AI detector will detect that because the sentence structure and pattern wouldn't match typical AI output.

Not quite. I'm not really sure but I think the original idea actually was a fixed hardware address but I'm not sure if a lot of devices actually ever implemented it that way because it's simpler (and cheaper) to control it in software. In modern (especially mobile) devices it's actually a security requirement because with a fixed MAC address you could be tracked by other wifi devices.
