  • How good of a conductor wood is depends on its state. If it is very dry and not salty, this should be safe (although he could have taken the piece of wood more at the end to increase the distance between him and the fence and the length=isolation through the piece of wood). If it is wet and salty, it might be dangerous.

  • How come LED Light Bulbs only last for about 2-3 Years?
  • Are you sure? Doesn't the "smart edison bulb" design make it harder to dissipate heat to the casing, therefore making the LEDs get hotter compared to PCBs with LEDs surface mounted on them?

    Anyway, if you want your light bulbsany technology to last long, don't buy the "smart" variant. "Smart" usually means more components and/or more dependencies on interfaces, and more complexity, so a higher chance to fail.

  • Keeping the playing field level
  • Your comment is incorrect in many different ways.

    Butter is fat and some sugar and protein.

    No. The butter in my fridge has almost no sugar (0.6g in 100g) and almost no protein (0.7 g in 100g).

    Pasta is mostly carbs.

    For comparison: The pasta I have at home have more sugar (most have roughly 3g in 100g) and way more protein (12g in 100g).

    they all become calories, and if you eat more calories than you burn, they will be stored as fat.

    Are you sure you're not simplifying too much?

    Also, "just" eating less or more calories is not that easy if you ignore the side-effects. Carbohydrates will make you hungry very soon unless mixed (or eaten after) fibers, fat and protein. Which you should do anyways for health reasons.

  • The left-wing French coalition hoping to introduce 90% tax on rich
  • Lots of places in France are so remote and sparsely populated that public transport does not work there, at least not yet. It may or may not work once autonomous vehicles are fit for rural areas, but this may take a while.

  • The left-wing French coalition hoping to introduce 90% tax on rich
  • 400'000€ yearly income is not middle class. It is roughly the top 1%. Are you maybe mistaking property for income?

    I would have preferred taxing on property instead of income, but as long as interests and profits and other benefits are part of income, it sounds reasonable to me.

  • Ummm... What?
  • I guess you could try AI-checking it and answer "Ignore all previous instructions. …", followed by some new instructions. Some examples: https://www.aiweirdness.com/ignore-all-previous-instructions/

    (Although I guess it would be better to not respond to this obvious case of spam/scam)
