Serious question

Why doesn't gmail allow you to sort emails based on your address book? Who's responsible for that? lol

Remember that conversation we had about distributed database indexing being hard?
Fireduck

Probably that

grab your data by api and sort locally

whoa, you know it's a good sign when you *accidentally* blow the doors off your safety cage because you were trying to make it more powerful.

heh, that seems to saturate the IR filter on that camera
Rotonen

some of those sparks were *hot*

1200 Tesla, thats insane

for scale, the earth is 10^-5, sun something like 10^-1, those cheap chinese buckyballs you can get online are about 1T each
Rotonen
2018-09-27 23:03:00
is there anything even close to 1200 Tesla, well, except neutron stars?

post supernova compression waves might be somewhere in that ball park
Rotonen
2018-09-27 23:03:50
or radio jets from black holes, but 'magnetic flux' starts to fall apart in those regimes
Rotonen
2018-09-27 23:05:34
but field strength is an intuition escaping metric anyway, most people think of flux when they think of magnets in any 'non-stick' manner
Rotonen
2018-09-27 23:06:11
had to check up, but magnetars are in the 10^10 club
Rotonen
2018-09-27 23:08:17
hard to imagine these numbers
mjay

10^10T in a lab would have turned this cage into plasma :smile:
mjay
2018-09-27 23:09:25
depends on the field size
Rotonen
2018-09-27 23:09:43
or rather the flux gradient
Rotonen
2018-09-27 23:10:28
think of wizards waving hands and directing energies, close enough
Rotonen
2018-09-27 23:10:46
for all practical intents and purposes that's how fMRI works
