I’m not against algae as a food source, but the similarity of this research to Soylent Green’s cover source in the movie being plankton is hilariously on the nose.

Hallucinations while half-asleep are a well known phenomenon, so it’s very possible.
If you’re trying to know for certain, that’s harder. You’ll have to consider a lot of things. Not all of them are likely, so how much digging you do is dependent on how concerned you are.
Do you live alone? I assume you do, or already asked the people you live with.
Are all your exterior doors and windows locked? Is anything missing or out of place? I think you’d have already noticed if you’d been robbed, but this is easy stuff to rule out.
Do you have functioning Carbon Monoxide detectors? Do you have sleep apnaea? CO can lead to memory loss, sleep apnaea can contribute to sleep paralysis.
Have you seen your door open while half asleep before? If this is recurring, you can do things like place hairs in the door that will fall if it opens.
Have you done a sleep study? This can help determine if your REM cycle is frequently disrupted and if you need something like a CPAP.
There may be a better way, but I use the option to extract the file to a new folder with the same name as the zip file.
In my opinion, when you prioritize money over values, it’s just bigotry with more steps.
At least the end result is the same, even if the motivation is potentially different.
The original design of that bench is an art piece protesting the commercialization of life (although it may have been implemented seriously in some place where they missed the point).
Ironically, I’d expect a person living on the street to have actual coins capable of operating the bench more often than most people.
The “recycling” in Soylent Green is due to global warming and overpopulation causing a bunch of food scarcity. It’s definitely prescient in that way, but also weird in the context of the diagram.
Zero divided by zero is undefined. In that it literally does not meet the definition of division (from a mathematical perspective.)
This is a bit tricky because the reason that 0/0 is undefined is separate from why any other number divided by zero is undefined.
If I divide 6 by 0, there’s no number I can multiply by zero to get back to 6. Since I can’t get back to the 6, this is undefined.
If I divide 6 by 2, I get 3. And I can multiply 2 by 3 to get 6. Now it’s genuinely important that there is no other number I can multiply 2 by to get 6. There has to be a single unique result for both the division and the going back via multiplication.
Now, if we assume 0/0 = 1, that is fine. And I can multiply 1 times 0 to get back to 0. Checks out so far. However, 1 isn’t unique in getting back to 0. If I try 5 x 0, I get 0. Which, by the rules of division should mean that 0/0 = 5. Which clearly it wouldn’t.
So zero divided by zero is undefined because there is an infinite amount of numbers that would get me back to zero.
I’d never heard of Subsync before and I’ve just spent the last two hours fixing so many subtitles.
I’d had good results using SubtitleEdit to offset subs and set sync points before, but this tool is on another level. I might actually need to go back and use it to polish up a few subtitles that I got mostly right, but not quite.
I would argue that this is worldnews in that (if I understand it correctly) this impacts foreign travelers too, even those simply making connecting flights.
Nomads from Cyberpunk 2020/2077 were not on my bingo card for this year.
