Ultra-efficient LED puts out more power than is pumped in
I honestly don't understand why you are questioning the article. They were extremely forthright in explaining that there is no mystical, magical, or new physics explanation necessary.- Hattattack

Undergrad Could a Natural Nuclear Reactor Have Destroyed an Ancient Civilization?
Yeah, 1.5 -1.7 billion years ago, Uranium ores would have contained significantly higher concentrations of fissile U-235, as it's half-life is ~700 million years. A cave lined with this rich ore, and periodically filling with a neutron moderator could in theory (and evidently) become a natural...- Hattattack

Dream Out of Time: My Surprising Experience with a Clock
" Anyone care to proffer an explanation? " Coincidence. As far as sleep and time goes, the only experience that I have is that if I set my alarm for the same time for over one month I start to wake up from dreams concerning it being time to wake up, or just abruptly 5-<1 minutes before my...- Hattattack

Medical Optical Migraine: My 2 Experiences
Scary, but interesting. I thought it was a stroke, and I just came to grips with it, I started scrawling some messages to family on a receipt I found in the center console of my car, and that kept my mind off it. Before long it was over. After that, I googled it and realized what had...- Hattattack

Medical Optical Migraine: My 2 Experiences
Yeah, totally. Yet mine always covers a right corner (usually the entire right side of my vision) so I haven't seen any portion of the convex side of it large enough to discern a shape before it has grown out my field of view. The pattern moves so fast, that I wouldn't be able to draw an...- Hattattack

Medical Optical Migraine: My 2 Experiences
I will add more for those that are interested. For me, the distortion starts as a small spot usually in the bottom right of my field of vision, thought never at the edge. It grows for 15 minutes and then reaches max size usually around 50 percent of my field of vision and always overflows the...- Hattattack

Medical Optical Migraine: My 2 Experiences
I get these roughly every two months. The static-like scintillations grow and cover between 40 and 75 percent of my vision. The first time it happened I was driving to my bank, and I started to notice it just as I was arriving. I parked and barely staved off a panic attack. I thought I was...- Hattattack
