This is just retarded:

If I were a French student and I were 10 years old, I think it would be more important for me to learn coding than English. I'm not telling people not to learn English in some form — but I think you understand what I am saying is that this is a language that you can [use to] express yourself to 7 billion people in the world, - Cook tells Konbini.

It is equivalent in me standing up and advocating to the leaders of this world that engineering should be a mandatory subject in school as engineers speak to 7 billion people in the world, and everyone should be engineers.

As I alluded to before, I have been working on solving a problem I experienced with the custom workstation I have built last year. That problem is heat. I solved it as per the photo below.

I did not realize it initially, but the heat generated by the two 1080 Ti cards coupled with the Phanteks Evolv case caused the two cards to thermal throttle pretty much for anything I do that uses GPU power. The GPU temperatures would quickly run up to 84˚C, and the cards would start dropping their clock speed to stay within the thermal limits. This basically nerfed the 1080 Ti cards' performance half way back to the 1080 I originally had. Kind of pointless to spend $2000 on an upgrade only to lose that advantage due to excess heat.

For this article you need to watch this video from MKBHD. He is reviewing the iPhone 8. In this review he makes a remark about the weight of the iPhone 8, but this remark is so horribly wrong that I could not help but highlight this often made mistake - people saying things without doing their research first.

And it is just a bit heavier feeling because glass is after all, a heavier material than metal.

Check out this table of the weights of various different materials, as well as this one and Corning's Gorilla Glass.

There is something about the timeline of the Big Bang theory that has been bothering me for the past month or so. If you are vaguely familiar with the widely accepted theory of how our universe (multiverse?) got its start, you will know that according to theory, a lot happened in the first second.

My problem is with relativity - I cannot find a good explanation anywhere what 1 second means? Surely the mass of the singularity had to be insanely large - much larger than a typical black hole. We know from Einstein's theory of relativity that gravitational time dilation occurs near heavy objects. So is 1 second in the Big Bang theory measured from within the expanding singularity? It surely cannot be outside of it as spacetime evolved from that singularity; speaking of space outside of the expanding singularity is just nonsensical. So the "observer" had to be squished inside the expanding singularity, meaning if 1 second was relative to that location, that 1 second would not be the same as 1 second we experience here on earth. Not true? It had to be an eternity. Time is relative, is it not?

We had an 86.9% solar eclipse just now, 21 August 2017. Not as cool as a total solar eclipse but I had the luxury of seeing it from my own back yard.
