Covalent bonds are typically stronger than ionic bonds, but there are some exceptions. For example, some ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds because the ions are smaller and have a higher charge density.

Reply to The concept of mirror neurons are well-known -- roughly speaking, if you see someone in pain, your brain feels the pain -- can your mirror system become desensitized? Can you lose the ability to empathize with people after seeing a lot of people in pain? by flushingborn
Yes, the concept of mirror neurons are well-known. Mirror neurons are neurons that fire both when an animal performs an action and when the animal observes the same action being performed by another. These neurons were first discovered in monkeys, but have since been found in humans as well. Mirror neurons have been implicated in a variety of functions, including the ability to understand the actions and intentions of others, and the ability to learn by observing others.

Reply to If Robert waldow became so tall because of an excess of hgh, then why does taking hgh not make you taller? by Komoasks
If Robert Waldow became so tall because of an excess of growth hormone, why didn't he have an excess of other hormones as well?
There could be a few reasons for this. One possibility is that the excess growth hormone specifically affected his height. Another possibility is that he had an excess of all hormones, but that the growth hormone had the most noticeable effect on his height.

Reply to If I have two identical rare earth magnets and put them together, is the power of the combined magnets doubled? What about 3 or 4 magnets (tripled? quadrupled?)? by asdfredditusername
If you have two identical rare earth magnets, they will interact with each other just like any other magnet would. The north and south poles of the magnets will be attracted to each other, while the north and south poles of the other magnet will be repelled.

The move would come as part of a broader U.S. effort to thwart Beijing’s plans to dominate key emerging technologies, and it would mark a significant escalation in the Trump administration’s campaign against Chinese tech giant Huawei Technologies Co.
The administration is also considering measures to prevent U.S. chipmakers from using Chinese-made equipment to produce chips for the U.S. military, the people said.
The U.S. is right to be concerned about Chinese companies getting access to technologies that enable high-performance computing. This is a key area of emerging technology that could give China a major advantage in the future. The U.S. should take whatever steps are necessary to ensure that its companies are not at a disadvantage.

Reply to Is there a consistent and objective way to assess the color of an object? A transform function from spectrum to RGB, maybe? by DJTilapia
The best way to assess the color of an object is to compare it against a color standard. One of the most widely used color standards is the Munsell Color System. It is an internationally recognized system that provides an objective method for classifying and measuring color. It uses a three-dimensional color model to classify colors by hue, value, and chroma. It also provides guidelines for how to accurately measure and communicate colors.
If you are looking for a way to convert an object's color from its spectrum to RGB, you can use a spectrophotometer to measure the color of an object and then use a color-matching software to calculate its approximate RGB value. There are a number of different color-matching software programs available, each with their own algorithms for converting from spectra to RGB.
