Bitcoin: What Is It, and Is It Right for Your Business?

by E Speidel Submitted On March 26, 2014 OK, so what's Bitcoin? It's not an actual coin, it's "cryptocurrency," a digital form of payment that is produced ("mined") by lots of people worldwide. It allows peer-to-peer transactions instantly, worldwide, for free or at very low cost. Bitcoin was invented after decades of research into cryptography by software developer, Satoshi Nakamoto (believed to be a pseudonym), who designed the algorithm and introduced it in 2009. His true identity remains a mystery. This currency is not backed by a tangible commodity (such as gold or silver); bitcoins are traded online which makes them a commodity in themselves. Bitcoin is an open-source product, accessible by anyone who is a user. All you need is an email address, Internet access, and money to get started. Where does it come from? Bitcoin is mined on a distributed computer network of users running specialized software; the network solves certain m...

tips for Easy Drawing Shear Force Diagram

SFD (Shear Force Diagram)? nahhhh now I give 5 steps and easy for drawing SFD almost all types of SFD correctly   kita pinjam diagram di atas dari web Mr Engineer Langkah 1 mestilah kena calculate nilai reactions bg simply supported beam. Both of the reactions will be equal. Since, beam is symmetrical. i.e., R1 = R2 = W/2 = 1000 kg..   Langkah kedua kira semua tindakan daya dengan guna equation asas pada point A, B dan C When simply supported beam is carrying point loads. Then find shear force value in sections. Shear force value will remain same up to point load. Value of shear force at point load changes and remain same until any other point load come into action. Shear force between ( A – B ) = S.F (A-B) = 1000 kg Shear force between (B – C) = S.F (B -C) = 1000 – 2000 S.F (B – C) = – 1000 kg. Langkah 3 Nahhhh boleh lah lukis SFD. amik pensel sekarang...   Nampak tak? Langkah 4 In case of simply supported be...

Bitcoin ... bitcoin

Introduction to Bitcoin by Aaron David Brown Submitted On March 20, 2014    Bitcoin has been in the news the last couple of weeks, but a lot of people are still unaware of them. Could Bitcoin be the future of online currency? This is just one of the questions, frequently asked about Bitcoin. How Does Bitcoin Work? Bitcoin is a type of electronic currency (CryptoCurrency) that is autonomous from traditional banking and came into circulation in 2009. According to some of the top online traders, Bitcoin is considered as the best known digital currency that relies on computer networks to solve complex mathematical problems, in order to verify and record the details of each transaction made. The Bitcoin exchange rate does not depend on the central bank and there is no single authority that governs the supply of CryptoCurrency. However, the Bitcoin price depends on the level of confidence its users have, as the more major companies accept Bitcoin as a method of payment, ...

Things Every Jewelry Designer Must Know About Magnetic Clasps

by Jasmin Z Submitted On January 16, 2015 Magnetic clasps are easier to use than most other types of jewelry clasps. They open and close with the use of magnets and this allows the jewelry to be held securely in place. It is easy to put on and remove jewelry which has magnetic clasps. Anyone who is suffering from arthritis, fibromyalgia and carpal tunnel syndrome will find it difficult to use toggle and lobster clasps which tend to be too small. Even people who have poor vision will struggle with these kinds of clasps when trying to put on or remove their jewelry. Magnetic clasps are extremely convenient for people who have limited dexterity. Jewelry that includes magnetic clasps can make wonderful gifts for children, elderly people and those who are suffering from joint problems. It takes very little effort to connect or remove jewelry that has magnetic clasps. How to attach magnetic clasps When it comes to attaching these clasps to your beaded jewelry, it is essential to be ...

Are magnetic clasps magic?

by Ador Talukdar Submitted On April 28, 2015 Magnetic clasps are just one of the types of clasps which are available to jewelry makers to use in their latest creations. Many people actually prefer magnetic closing mechanisms to any other type of clasp because they are incredibly easy to operate, especially for those who have limited dexterity in their fingers. For this reason, magnetic clasps are often put into jewelry items which are designed to be worn by older people. To open magnetic clasps, the user must simply apply a small amount of force in opposite directions, so that the two halves of the clasp separate. To close the clasp again, simply place the two opposite halves of the clasp close to one another and they should 'jump' back together again. It almost seems like magic, but how do these magnetic clasps really work? Magnetic clasps actually work because of some of the basic principles of physics. They rely on special forces known as magnetic forces. These forces ...

Road Construction: History and Procedure

written by: Tarun Goel edited by: Lamar Stonecypher updated: 5/17/2013 Kaedah pembinaan jalan raya telah mengalami banyak perubahan dari semenjak pembinaan jalan yang pertama iaitu pada kira-kira lebih kurang 4000 s.m  Dalam sejarah dahulu kala, sistem pengangkutan menggunakan aliran sungai ni lebih cepat dan efisyen berbanding pengangkutan darat. masih ingat lag kita boleh memberi anugerah pada orang Rom kerana menurut sejarah, merekalah golongan yang pertama membina jalan yang berturap batuan di bahagian North Africa dan Eropah bagu memudahkan dan membantu melancarkan operasi ketenteraan mereka.  Kemudian, anugerah kedua kita boleh serahkan pada orang Arab yang membina jalan yang dilitupi tar. (👏👏👏👏) Jalan raya telah dibina dengan i. preparing earthworks ii. lifting the road foundation at the center for water drainage. Secara teknikalnya, pembinaan jalanraya dipertingkatkan dan dibuah penambaikan dengan membuat kajian terhadap i. road traffic ii. stone thi...

struts n ties

Hari ini kita berkenalan pula dgn terms 'struts' & 'ties' Sesi perkenalan dan pemahaman ini penting kerana boleh dikatakan semua bentuk struktur mempunyai daya yang bertindak kepada 2 elemen itu tadi.  apa? tak percaya?  jom kita ambil satu contoh iaitu tensile, compressive dan shear forces.  Bahagian struktur yang ada berlaku "tensile force" yang bertindak padanya dipanggil "TIE" (bukan tali tie or tali leher tu ya 😂) dan bahagian yang ada compressive force bertindak atasnya dinamakan "strut" hakak ambil lagi satu contoh gambarajah di atas menunjukkan beam itu dipegang oleh sebuah rod keluli. rod keluli itu mengalami daya regangan yang ditindakkan oleh berat beam. rod keluli itu dipanggil TIE dan beam itu adalah STRUT hakak belanja lagi satu contoh ... kali ni kita gunakan contoh roof beams (rasuk bumbung). kalau kita lihat dalam gambarajah di atas .. beam atau rasuk itu mangalami daya tekanan daripada berat ...

Highway Construction & Engineering

Highway Construction & Engineering written by: Tarun Goel  edited by: Lamar Stonecypher Highway construction and engineering includes planning, designing, and building of highways. History stands witness that good roads lead to prosperity for distant societies. If a road is well planned and then executed according to the plan, a highway can open the gates of growth and development. Highways connect two or more places and ensure that industries, employment, and development follow. Bridges, traffic lights, pavements, bike paths, and lane dividers make up a safe highway. Modern highways are known for their high capacity, efficiency, and planned construction. Highway networks are very important for the growth of a region. Highways open new trade routes and almost every industrial region in the world is connected to the major highway network system of that particular country. #highway #road #cc302 #civilengineering #history

Sesi berkenalan dengan FORCE ...

Force? Air force? ok.. kali ni saya nak bercerita sedikit tentang salah satu ilmu dalam kejuruteraan awam iaitu Force atau daya yang ditindakkan atau dikenakan pada sesuatu terutamanya struktur. Menurut seorang bijaksana bernama V-RYAN  © 2002-15 di dalam website beliau, "Terdapat pelbagai jenis daya yg bertindak pada pelbagai jenis cara pada sesebuah struktur seperti jambatan, kerusi, bangunan dan pelbagai lagi struktur. " Meh hakak tunjukkan lebih sedikit contoh-contoh yang mudah difahami yang hakak pinjam dari abang Ryan tadi. Korang semua jangan terpesona sangat. harus kena fahamkan setiap diagram tersebut dan cuba untuk kenalpasti  setiap daya yang dikenakan pada setiap situasi. jom cekidaud gambar pertama Gambar seorang mamat berdiri tegak di atas adalah contoh Daya Statik. Lelaki di atas berdiri tegak dan memegang beberapa buah buku tetapi dia tidak bergerak. Tekanan yang dikenakan ke arah bawah itu dinamakan Statik. gambar kedua kali ini kita minta m...

Time Waits for No One - How to manage your Time

Time Waits for No One - How to Manage Your Time By Cleo WhittinghamSubmitted On September 21, 2015 Who is to blame? We allow or minds to be bombarded with information every single second of the day. Media and the smartphone are the favourite culprits but the truth and reality behind that is, we have to switch the TV on, we have to open up the browser, we have to sign up to social media platforms. It's very interesting to hear many shout about the ultimate devil, Facebook, or for those who believe Twitter is for the more sophisticated among us but the cold hard facts are we love social media, we get all caught up in their webs (pun intended) and we thrive on it. Take Responsibility - Recognise your weakness muscles & give them a work out. Social media and the internet, family, work, squeezed in hobbies a bit of socialising wedged in at the weekend and we fall into bed at the end of a hectic day and our last thoughts drift to what we really want to be spending our time...
