2018-04853 | Why are smartphone fingerprint scanners so quick and responsive, but laptop fingerprint scanners always seem to be so gimmicky and ineffective? | phones dont actually scan your entire fingerprint. that's why you have to tap it a bunch of times during setup, so it can unlock even from a partial print. it's faster, but less secure havent used a laptop scanner but from what i've seen they're bigger than the ones on phones, so it's possible they scan the entire print to be more secure (of course, neither method is very secure since they rely on a data-set you leave on every object you touch) | [

2018-09591 | Fruits or vegetables which are high in certain vitamins. Are they of actual use to the plant or just a by product or both? | I mean, the vitamins are produced for some function in the plant vitamin E for example is an antioxidant, which is used to counter some of the effects of oxidizing agents which can cause protein and DNA damage. One large factor in the production of oxidizing agents is UV radiation from the sun, so plants grown in areas with a lot of sunlight probably produce a lot of vitamin E (almonds, swiss chard, avocado, etc.) vitamin B2 is important in energy production. And one of the biggest uses of energy in plants is plant growth. So plants that grow a lot or grow quickly probably are using a lot of energy, so they probably need higher amounts of vitamin B2. It's rare that any organism would have a lot of anything that it isn't using, because it takes energy to make a lot of molecules. So if it were just some product of a reaction, the plant would likely have some way to break it down into something functional, or dispose of it. It wouldn't just hold onto an excessive amount of random junk that it won't use. | [

2018-10571 | how can a voter’s anonymity be preserved when they cast a provisional ballot before they’re verified as registered? | When a provisional ballot is cast, it’s in a sealed envelope which is put in another envelope. When the election officials review the documentation to see if the voter is entitled to cast the ballot, they then put the sealed envelope in a box with other ballots if everything checks out. Otherwise, the ballot is in a pile to be destroyed. Later, the envelopes are opened. So, the marked ballot and the voters information are never viewed at the same time so they can’t be correlated. | [

2018-09504 | When a lawyer "objects" to another lawyers statement, how is it handled. | Discussing things in the jury room that you have been instructed not to discuss is a good way to find yourself in contempt of court.

2018-02158 | how are people able to track hackers ie: where they are, who they are, etc | This is part of digital forensics and is kind of like asking 'how do you know that this person murdered this other person without actually witnessing it?'. You can narrow hacking down to 1) Physical access - someone having access to the machine in order to clone the data to another device or crack it at the location 2) Remote access - someone able to crack into a device via logging in from another location. The password can be cracked by acting as a man-in-the-middle (think wiretapping) or hash-cracking, exploits, 0-days (think lock picking) 3) Exploiting bad code - bad sanitization ( URL_0 ) The way to track these people is by taking advantage of how they use the exploits and either de-anonymizing them via some method (comparing ISP logs with VPNs / other servers) or traditional methods (looking for motives and narrowing people down). If it is just one person this could be pretty hard to do, especially if there is no real motive except curiosity or mischief. If it is something bigger, the more people are involved, then the greater the chance you find someone who made a mistake, and the greater chance you catch someone who will talk (for a deal). | [

2018-01339 | How do people go about translating their name into a different alphabet? | Names are never translated officially (though they might be translated for fun between friends, in the case of names that are also just regular words). Names are *transliterated* based on internationally accepted transliteration systems - even for one language (such as Russian) to English there are multiple systems with minor variations. For instance, an й can be transliterated as a y or j or omitted in some cases depending on the system being used. For travel purposes, typically whatever organization is doing your documents will transliterate the name for you. For instance, if you're applying for a visa to Ukraine, the Ukrainian government will be the ones figuring it out for you. This helps keep transliterations uniform within one country at least. | [

2018-00983 | How do sea/motion sickness pills work? | Your brain has two ways to determine whether you are moving your head (there are more, but we can simplify this): your eyes, and some tiny "caves" inside the temporal bone. These tiny caves are filled with liquid, so when you move your head, because of inertia, the liquid moves. Lining the walls of these caves are cells which have appendixes that extend toward the center (of the caves). When the liquid moves, the appendixes are dragged in such and such direction. This triggers a chemical response inside the cells, which ultimately becomes a signal that is sent to your brain. When these signals and what your eyes see are not in agreement, you might become nauseous (you are not moving your head, but your brain interprets that your head is moving). This can happen, for example, when you are in a car on a sinuous road. You feel the swerving, but it is not due to your turning of the head. Motion sickness pills attenuate the intensity of the signals sent by the little caves so that there is not such a disagreement. Let's just say one opinion is less prevalent, so your brain is not so confused. | [

2018-02608 | What makes Earth's atmosphere sustain? | > I have wondered why the atmosphere is there, and how it does not dissipate. It is stuck on Earth for the same reason everything else is, because of gravity. Air is composed of materials with mass which means it has weight; not as much weight as many other things but still it is attracted to Earth. > It seems like a snow globe with a hard cutoff point somewhere a few miles from earths surface. There is no hard cutoff, it gradually gets thinner and thinner. In fact the height at which the International Space Station orbits there is still some slight bits of air that would gradually slow it down, meaning it needs to be boosted every so often with nudges from rockets to stay in orbit. > Are there any illustrations or anything explaining what it is really made up of?
