There are cases when electricians working on the street to restore power get shocked by some house generator feeding power back to the grid.

The same law which makes gun recoil happen. If you fire a pistol in vacuum you would still get the same recoil or even stronger. The rocket engine fires a lot of gas molecules instead of bullets at much higher velocity than a bullet, which gives it the constant push/recoil

I remember when Falkon 9 was doing its first landings, the whole YouTube comments section was filled with flat earthers claiming it’s a CGI. Now you can take a car and go watch landings in person, I wonder where all those people went.

It’s the other way around, you will get all of the tickets which are missing plate info. Some guy did it and regrets it, there is a documentary about it.

Jade plants were very popular as house plant in the soviet union, everyone had one at home. This could be a reason why AI got confused there

Why mips and not RiscV? I would assume it’s easier to emulate in software and has good support in linux

EDIT: found it

Some architectures had arbitrarily-shifted operands all the time (ARM), some have shitty addressing modes necessitating that they would be slow (RISCV), some would need more than 4KB to even decode instructions (x86), and some were just too complex to emulate in so little space (PPC).

Could it be the pc relative addressing often used on risc-v would be slow to run on 4004?
