Closest thing would be toluene, but that has 8 hydrogen atoms

I can’t be the only one thinking it
1·5 days agoThey all have a system for keeping track of that, I know iCloud automatically assigns a URL to each based on where you created it, or Fastmail (which I use) has a comment field and automatically tags each email as it comes to your inbox.
It takes more than zero effort to create it, so it’s too much effort for my wife, but I absolutely love it.
There’s really nothing to be done about the compromised email address, but I would really recommend using a service that creates unique email addresses per service that you sign up for to mitigate the blast radius when one service gets pwned. It takes a long while, but thankfully privacy laws are stronger now and it’s easier to force a company to either delete your information or change the email they have for you.
Some potential services to consider include:

I find their write ups to be fascinating.
42·9 days agoYeah it’s very surprising to me as well. As a life-long resident of one of the states mentioned, having lived in both major cities as well and small-medium towns, I don’t think I’ve experienced this “aggression”
33·9 days agoTo be pedantic, it’s 100%–(162%)^(1/6)=8.4% per year. Still a great number, until you consider that their wages have been pretty stagnant for years.
Edit:
That may sound like an extreme demand, but workers would point out that wages for veteran dockworkers have increased 11% since the start of the last six-year contract, while inflation has jumped 24% in the same period.

Ah so similar to Oreo “crème,” because “cream” is a protected word in the US
Edit: seems I was wrong about the escape mechanism for helium, it seems the primary mechanism is polar wind escape.
Also, hydrogen can also apparently escape from the Earth.

5·13 days agoThe redefinition of the mole in 2019, as being the amount of substance containing exactly 6.02214076×10^23 particles
Since the 2019 SI redefinition, avogadro’s number is a constant.

Edit: looks like we were both right! I was reading through your link and it seems the work reported by the NIST led to the exact definitions for Avogadro’s number and the Planck constant.
8·13 days agoI think this would likely be most troublesome on some of the OG internet users that got a whole freaking /8, /10, or /12 or something like AT&T or universities. Up until very recently, and possibly even to the present, these organizations had such large IPv4 space, that there was no need to do NAT, and each device had a publicly addressable IP.

Since 2019, the kg is just defined in terms of the Plank constant and some math with the resonant frequency of cesium as well as the speed of light. There was too much variability in anything physical so they decided to just fix some constants at whatever value they were close to.
God I am painfully unoriginal
At the height of the French Revolution, he was charged with tax fraud and selling adulterated tobacco, and was guillotined despite appeals to spare his life in recognition of his contributions to science. A year and a half later, he was exonerated by the French government.
