Would this be a different loop, but connected to LHC or is this a new standalone loop where they would need to find a locale to build it underground?


Completely new tunnel, but it will be connected to LHC, as they will use LHC to pre accelerate the particles.

Almost all accelerators built at CERN are still active and are a chain of pre-accelerator for LHC now:

wow. Amazing map. Just imagine Half Life map with it... :)


That seems like insane engineering


This will be a completely new tunnel loop. The LHC tunnel will be used by LHC at the same time the new tunnel loop is being constructed.


Thanks for clarifying, much appreciated.


Pretty sure Microsoft is going to try and get a settlement. The evidence is very clear.


Gotta love /s how inconsistent they are with punctuations.


The SAFE-T act of 2021 requires https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAFE-T_Act "all law enforcement agencies to use body cameras by 2025". This is alongside research that indicates it is beneficial and cost-effective https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/20533586-cl_bwc-stud...

The judge's insistence may come from other times that a judge's order has been ignored https://abcnews.go.com/US/trump-admin-ignores-judges-order-b...


Except a state law does and cannot force federal law enforcement to do anything, no matter how good of an idea body cameras may be.


That is not true. State laws cannot interfere with the work of federal law enforcement, but can require certain behaviours.

Eg. States set speed limits. A federal LEO can break these when required for their duties (eg. chasing a suspect), but only when required (eg. if they are late for a meeting, they still have to obey traffic laws).

Body cameras do not seem to directly interfere with an LEO’s duty, unless “avoiding accountability” is literally their duty.


But is a federal judge ruling on federal agents, and in the case of the national guard seems to be under control of the state? https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10/12406


I wasn't addressing the ruling by the judge, only the poster commenting on a state law, suggesting it's applicability here.


The act you’re referring to is Illinois statute and doesn’t apply to federal agents.


Overall, love it. From the US perspective, property value and then down payment is an extra step when you could just start with total mortgage.

For user experience, the grey fields made me think they weren't editable or clickable until I got to the point of adding early payments.


Thank you so much for the feedback.

I live in Europe where mortgages without a down payment are quire rare unless you have an extra house that is at least 75% of the value of the new one you want to purchase. This being the reasoning because of which it is there.

About the whole gray placeholders - you are correct. I will fix that!


Great context about Europe and down payments, thanks for teaching me that.


Fix deployed. I have added an "e.g." label in front of the placeholders.

Cheers once again! I really appreciate it.


Kudos on the quick fix.


Is there a specific reason why this site seems to have so much less visible infrastructure than ESA or NASA?


It's a much much smaller rocket than you see at Kourou or at Kennedy. Kennedy was, let's not forget, built for a vehicle more powerful than the Saturn V. And both to handle the SRBs of Ariane launchers (which basically chuck flying rubble out the back on launch).

The pad infrastructure is reasonably similar to an actual comparative launch site like Kodiak AK.


Thank you, that makes so much sense.


This is the type of data analysis I would not want to have done on employees and companies data.


Thanks, mods please close this one down in lieu of the other.
