As a famous man once said "It depends on what your definition of 'is' is." As far as the first part, not only is hawking radiation negligible, but its also ordinary thermal radiation - not anything dark.

My medical care team gets all of its drugs from the cartels. Cheaper and less paperwork.

I'm talking more about ships logs and not radio logs. The big advantage of a ship's log being electronic is that you can automatically keep copies at multiple sites - especially not on the ship. If you lose the ship, you keep the log. OK, maybe its stale by an hour or a day, but you still have it.

People post their own thoughts here? The fiends!

True. But do they still use pen and ink in this day and age?

I suspect this will go in circles until people lose interest or it is closed. Consider only EM for the moment. What is radiation and what is near filed is dependent on the observer. I am 99% sure this cannot be uniquely defined at a single point - so you need two observers, and the pairs will...

First, those are words. The truth is in the math. Second, those are your words. We need to flesh out what you need. Finally, you can complain that you didn't get a nice sound bite for an answer. But knowledge is not just a collection of sound bites.

Do they still use that? I haven't seen a real logbook in the sciences in decades. This also may not solve the problem. At Lab A, the culture is to "writ down everything, and annotate after the fact if necessary". At Lab B, it's "don't write down problems until you have a solution" - e.g...

I don't develop in Windows, but in unix, the command is different to link in foo.obj and foo.lib.

I have never heard of such a thing. Judging by the papers I have read, if they exist, they are not very good. Your paper sounds more like philosophy than physics. Better writing won't change that.

All except the command you are using and the error message you get.

Yes, What does that mean? Can you write down an equation? (If not, that says something about your question)

Will that kind of error be fixed by more rules, more paperwork and more bureaucracy? I have seen management try to increase safety by more paperwork, and I have seen them try and increase it by more punishment. Neither has worked. My takeaway is: (1) Nobody wants an accident. Your best...

That's the key. The universe is expanding. And cooling. So its density is going down. Its size is going up. The CMB is becoming less intense and lower in frequency. And so on.

And most, if not all, are not even constant!
