May he rest in peace

And, I am convinced that eating and sleeping a lot have helped me a lot academically :smile: :wink:

hehe :smile: I know this is Cantonese way of saying Happy New Year. A Mandarin restaurant ad on our local radio used to "Gong hei fat choy " this all around the year!

Gong hei fat choy :smile:

It's bad to be with people who will break your trust all the time but what you seem to be suggesting is not human at all because you need to have some flexibility and allow others to correct their mistakes. If they don't then yes it's time to move away.

We all make mistakes sometimes.. just buy her something she really loves and tell her you will do everything to recover the data and not ever delete stuff in future :smile: I don't know why someone would keep all the stuff on video camera. I always make a backup on my computer in case I...

Exactly! It's better to have practical people than Noble prize winners.

I would say to abuse the government subsidies. It's a profitable business under a solar friendly government. But, solar prices are generally too high (+18.8 cents/kWh pg 28 http://www.map.ren21.net/GSR/GSR2012_low.pdf )

Yes, wind energy suffered because it was pure madness to build so many wind farms without having enough transmission system in place. Most of the energy from wind is not being used. However, I was arguing that China's nuclear energy must be too weak right now if wind can beat it. From the...

But isn't China's wind energy beating nuclear? (http://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/Wind-Overtakes-Nuclear-to-Become-Chinas-3rd-Largest-Energy-Source.html). I read earlier about future nuclear ambitions of China but they suffered a setback after Japan incident. As for India, I...

There are big coal-friendly countries like China and India willing to buy those fossil fuels :-p And, both have trouble getting nuclear to work.

"Renewables" is a sloppy word. 61.7% of energy in my country, Canada is produced from renewable source - Hydro (www.electricity.ca/media/pdfs/economic/canada_us_affairs/CEA_NAReport_Web_E.pdf). My province 98% energy is from Hydro and they have the cheapest energy price in NA 6.76 cents/kwH...

I remember that in a very silly way. When do 1 over, sin becomes cos and cos becomes sin so we get csc for 1/sin and sec for 1/cos. But one good thing for cos is that it has even terms in its taylor series and I like even numbers :biggrin:

I like sin more than cos for same reasons as OP :smile:

They weren't my favorite and were annoying but I don't recall ever getting bitten by them. It might have been because we were living in a very open space. Maybe dogs get agitated and bite when you lock them in small room space :rolleyes: A small dog like Evo's might be a good choice if you...
