I see loss, I downvote.

If any cops or cop apologists wanna disagree with this: show me a good cop who arrested an ICE. Because ICE is breaking the law, and as far as I can tell, nobody's arresting them.

They used to use analog computers to solve differential equations, back when every transistor was expensive (relays and tubes even more so) and clock rates were measured in kilohertz. There's no practical purpose for them now.

In cases of number theory, and RSA cryptography, you need even more precision. They combine multiple integers together to get 4096-bit precision.

If you're asking about the 24-bit ADC, I think that's usually high-end audio recording.

The maximum theoretical precision of an analog computer is limited by the charge of an electron, 10^-19 coulombs. A normal analog computer runs at a few milliamps, for a second max. So a max theoretical precision of 10^16, or 53 bits. This is the same as a double precision (64-bit) float. I believe 80-bit floats are standard in desktop computers.

In practice, just getting a good 24-bit ADC is expensive, and 12-bit or 16-bit ADCs are way more common. Analog computers aren't solving anything that can't be done faster by digitally simulating an analog computer.

Better dead than in a concentration camp. If they assault someone violently, it's more likely to turn heads (especially if they're a US citizen. For some reason.)

Any info on this? I can't find anything about Chipotle removing any DEI stuff.

No person should have to pledge loyalty to the party to graduate. I don't think you could sue for this in China. The party controls everything.

The counterfeit claim is bullshit. If they cared about counterfeits, they'd raid Amazon first.

Why should I care? There's no inherent reason lotteries deserve to exist. There are several reasons they shouldn't exist.

I would never subscribe to Crunchyroll, because they use DRM.

Going into an apartment complex, arresting everyone there including children, including US citizens, without a warrant? That's illegal. But there's nothing you can do about it except sue them afterwards.
