Since yesterday started Passover, I have a question that's been bugging me.

During Moses' attempts to have the Israelites freed, why does "The Lord harden Pharaoh's heart" and prevent him from freeing them?

It... Doesn't seem quite fair, does it? And he goes ahead and changes his mind anyway once they've been set free, so that doesn't seem to be an effective answer.

what percent of the burn was successful? What's a "target" percentage? Do they expect 100% accuracy and then have a buffer?

Basically, how accurately do we predict these sorts of things, generally?

what laptop are you using? 100w is not much.

EDIT: Look, 100w is its theoretical MAX. I get you may have some random sized charger, but for a computer doing graphics work, a mobile hotspot, a few other gadgets, it's hard to tell how that would work on that size a panel.

Dotcorn expressed most of my thoughts much more eloquently that I was going to, but I'm going to add that "chemically they're pretty similar" is... well... extraordinarily wrong. That's like saying "dopamine and seratonin are chemically pretty similar, so there's no real difference"

Pot and alcohol? Heroin and crack? MDMA and dmt? All very different beasts.
