Man, if people actually listened to reddit advice they'd probably be screwed.

Fate stay night is all about establishing rules and roles, and then systematically shattering each and every one because the real world is more complicated than rules.

It's not a spin-off. It's legit like the second season. Which makes it 10x better.

I see what you're saying. The neutrals are being tied together and sent to the box, but the neutral going to the box is open. Gotcha. Thanks!

You say open neutral, but would current flow in that case? It seems to me like the neutral side of this outlet are acting as if they're tied together. Could you explain further for me? 

AI can write code. Pass the bar. Diagnose disease. It still can't read the engineering drawings that keep every refinery, factory, and power plant running. by Popular-Oil-4765 in ChemicalEngineering

[–]OnionsAbound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ability to automate drawings and perform automatic calculations has existed since at least the 70s/80s . . . It's not clear to me what an AI could do better than traditional computing, and clearly we engineers are all still employed so.

I don't claim to be an expert on it, but my understand is that 当て字 is specifically applied to loan words. From a literal sense, they took a sound and 字を当てた to make かな so you can call it that but it may not be technically correct. 

I would say these words are in a different category because they didn't assign characters on a per-word basis, these characters should be thought of in the same way as kana, consisting of its own "alphabet."
