Reply to Google case at Supreme Court risks upending the internet as we know it by dustofoblivion123
I’m confused. Hasn’t it already been established that pages that host information are not responsible for the content unless an issue is brought to their attention. Like flagging copyright infringement. I guess Google’s algorithm is responsible for promoting it but they didn’t put the content there.

Reply to AI will not replace software developers, It will just drastically reduce the number of them. by masterile
I’m a software developer. I’m not afraid of ai taking my job. I’ve seen what it can do. It’s helpful but it can’t do anything that can’t also be achieved with a few min on google. When it does get better and starts replacing programming jobs, literally all jobs except top engineering or arts jobs will be replaced at the same time. Some form of universal basic income will be created or we will all live in poverty. I hope for the first but we live in a world of greedy idiots so who knows.

Why is everyone complaining about the ps5 controllers? I’ve had mine for over a year and I haven’t had a single issue. I’m pretty sure I’ve never even seen low battery. How long do people play without charging their controllers?

I don’t know how it’s being done here but in a standard battery, there’s what’s called a salt bridge. Basically a paper towel soaked in salt water that allows ions to pass through without mixing the chemicals on both halves of the battery.

Now imagine they focus that beam to say 5ft. What’s stopping them from adding a mirror?

Reply to If I have two identical rare earth magnets and put them together, is the power of the combined magnets doubled? What about 3 or 4 magnets (tripled? quadrupled?)? by asdfredditusername
Yes but also no. Combined magnets will act equivalent to a magnet of the combined size. Magnetic forces are also affected by the internals of the magnet (basically it pulls against itself) and this cancels out some of the magnetic pull. If the magnets are infinitely small then yes, adding a magnet will always increase the strength by the amount of magnets you add. But in the real world, 2 magnets will always be strictly less than twice as strong as 1 magnet. Small magnets this effect is not noticeable but strength will tapper off logarithmically as you add magnets depending on the strength density of the magnets. Really strong tiny magnets will loose strength per added magnet slower than big magnets of the same strength.
