Given a decimal number, it can be split into two pieces of about the same size, each of which is converted to binary, whereupon the first converted piece is multiplied by 10 k and added to the second converted piece, where k is the number of decimal digits in the second, least-significant piece before conversion.
Given the current economic model, built on GDP, it would take 100 years to bring the world's poorest up to the poverty line of $1.25 a day. [76] UNICEF estimates half the world's children (or 1.1 billion) live in poverty. [77] The World Bank forecasted in 2015 that 702.1 million people were living in extreme poverty, down from 1.75 billion in ...

Life is a quality that distinguishes matter that has biological processes, such as signaling and self-sustaining processes, from matter that does not. It is defined descriptively by the capacity for homeostasis, organisation, metabolism, growth, adaptation, response to stimuli, and reproduction.
Considering all personal computers, Microsoft Windows is well below 50% usage share on every continent, and at 30% in the US (24% single-day low) and in many countries lower, e.g. China, and in India at 19% (12% some days) and Windows' lowest share globally was 29% in May 2022 (25% some days), and 29% in the US.
Many critics point to studies showing social media algorithms elevate more partisan and inflammatory content. [ 209 ] [ 210 ] Because of recommendation algorithms that filter and display news content that matches users' political preferences, one potential impact is an increase in political polarization due to selective exposure .
The symmetry of a carbon dioxide molecule is linear and centrosymmetric at its equilibrium geometry. The length of the carbon–oxygen bond in carbon dioxide is 116.3 pm, noticeably shorter than the roughly 140 pm length of a typical single C–O bond, and shorter than most other C–O multiply bonded functional groups such as carbonyls.

The module is then crushed in a mill and the different fractions are separated – glass, plastics and metals. [82] It is possible to recover more than 80% of the incoming weight. [ 83 ] This process can be performed by flat glass recyclers, since the shape and composition of a PV module is similar to flat glass used in the building and ...
