Explain Like I'm 5 (ELI5)
Objective and layman-
ELI5: Why do companies (Google, Apple, etc.) that have billions of dollars worth of debt not pay it off when they have the money for it?
ELI5: How do air breathing sea animals like dolphins or whales not drown during violent seastorms?
It seems to me that it would be really tough to surface during some of the storms I have seen on youtube (aircraft carriers seemingly thrown around). How on earth can a tiny dolphin surface and get an appropriate breath in without pulling in water? does their respiratory system have a special valve in it to ensure water can’t get through?More
ELI5: why is math (statistics, calculus, etc) so important for a strong programmer?
ELI5: If computers are lightning-fast at running calculations and performing tasks, why does “freezing” take seconds or even minutes?
I’ve had my computer completely lock up for a solid minute, and when it unfreezes I ask myself “what did you solve just now that took a whole minute to do?”
