  2. Breadcrumb navigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breadcrumb_navigation

    Breadcrumbs typically appear horizontally across the top of a Web page, often below title bars or headers. They provide links back to each previous page the user navigated through to get to the current page or—in hierarchical site structures—the parent pages of the current one.

  3. Units of information - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_information

    Historically, a byte was the number of bits used to encode a character of text in the computer, which depended on computer hardware architecture, but today it almost always means eight bits – that is, an octet. An 8-bit byte can represent 256 (2 8) distinct values, such as non-negative integers from 0 to 255, or signed integers from −128 to ...

    Enough to uniquely identify one codon of genetic code. The size of code points in Base64; thus, often the entropy per character in a randomly-generated password. 7 bits – the size of code points in the ASCII character set – minimum length to store 2 decimal digits. 2 3: byte (B) 8 bits – (a.k.a. octet or octad(e)) on many computer ...

    List of emerging technologies – new fields of technology, typically on the cutting edge. Examples include genetics, robotics, and nanotechnology (GNR) Artificial intelligence – computer mental abilities, especially those that previously belonged only to humans, such as speech recognition, natural language generation, etc.

  7. Baker percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker_percentage

    In a recipe, the baker's percentage for water is referred to as the "hydration"; it is indicative of the stickiness of the dough and the "crumb" of the bread. Lower hydration rates (e.g., 50–57%) are typical for bagels and pretzels , and medium hydration levels (58–65%) are typical for breads and rolls . [ 25 ]

  8. Limits of computation - Wikipedia

    Seth Lloyd calculated [9] the computational abilities of an "ultimate laptop" formed by compressing a kilogram of matter into a black hole of radius 1.485 × 10 −27 meters, concluding that it would only last about 10 −19 seconds before evaporating due to Hawking radiation, but that during this brief time it could compute at a rate of about ...

    The kelvin is defined by setting the fixed numerical value of the Boltzmann constant k to 1.380 649 × 10 −23 J⋅K −1, (J = kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −2), given the definition of the kilogram, the metre, and the second.
