Also, doesn't she immediately imply that any centralised planning is either not centralised (not across actual needa) or not planning (what job requirements?) after raising the idea of central planning in the vid??

I've seen some weird vibe based direction setting by ppl who'd be at the committee levels, in spite of the info provided by almost all of the scientists at the coal face.
If planned, can they get ppl who are competent and proactive pls?
(I am peripheral to Academia, I self ID as mostly scientist)

Geopolitics and agreed strategy amongst the NATO countries, I believe, is why Poland is providing materiel support so far.
I'd suggest that many countries that were behind the Iron Curtain have recent enough memories to avoid RU occupation; also why so many of those countries joined NATO...

Are you aware of the community taking a recent snapshot? And do you know if it's reporting only, or does this include NASA software?

From memory, Niels Abel is the only person whose name is not capitalised when used as a descriptor: "abelian"

My memory from Maths is to capitalise the person's name, but not the concept. The one exception I know of is "abelian group".
Sorry/not sorry Niels?? you're special for another reason??
I don't know if there are other exceptions in Maths to this rule.

You might have a bad reference value for electrons to luminance (assuming photon counting sensors).
There could be an issue with the voltage levels if it's battery powered.
I'm assuming you have the correct geometry for your standard source into the sensor?

If it reports each channel separately, and all channels are high, then it's likely a geometry issue (lens or sensor? uncertain of the internals of this unit).
If one of the channels is higher than it should be, there's something really off.

c.f. Luminance vs illuminance for eye response equivalent measurements
Eyes are often considered to respond in terms of radiance (constant "brightness" independent of distance, usually linked to high spatial resolution) rather than irradiance (linked to inverse square response, bad spatial resolution). I think this is supported by terrestrial observation only... :)
