How small is a micron and why does it matter?

Blueair Frequently Asked Questions
One micron is 1/25,000 of an inch. To understand just how small this is, consider that human hairs measure between 30 and 120 microns. Dust mite allergen measures from .1 to .3 micron and staphylococcus bacteria measures .7 micron. The size of a given particle helps to determine the degree of potential threat to human health. Particles ranging from .3 to .9 micron present the greatest health concern.

What is a micron and why should I care about small particles?

Dwyer Oil Since 1875: Frequently Asked Questions
A micron is 1/25,000th of an inch. A human hair is about 150 micros; the smallest thing that can be seen with the naked eye is about 10 microns. It is the largest particles, above 5.0 microns, that cause equipment problems and are what most filters are able to catch. However, 98% of the particles in the air are smaller than 1.0 micron. These "sub-micron" particles are not caught by most filters and get through our bodies' natural defenses when inhaled.

It is the largest particles, above 5 microns, that cause equipment problems and are what most filters are able to catch. However, 98% of the particles in the air are smaller than 1 micron. These "sub-micron" particles are not caught by most filters and can get through our bodies' natural defenses when inhaled.

How do I get small fonts to look as nice as large ones?

GIMP - Documentation
In general, small fonts won't ever look quite as nice as large ones. But there are a couple of things to try. Make sure you are using an outline font as opposed to a bitmapped font. For details, check any book on using the X Window System, such as O'Reilly & Associates X Window System User's Guide (Volume 3 of their excellent X series). If your image is GRAYSCALE or RGB (ie. not INDEXED) when there's a toggle button in the text tool which turns antialiased text on and off.

ColorPop - The Professional Webpage Popup Color Selector
Simply change the name of the function that is called; if you want to the large version use colorPop and if you want the small version use colorPopMini. You can also mix both versions in the same page. The text in red below shows what you need to change: Choose a color: <input type="text" id="cp_field" onfocus="colorPop('cp_field', 'cp_image')" readonly /> lt;img src="colorpop/colorpop_icon.

Is a micron the same as a micrometer?

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions about the metric system
A micrometer (mi·CROM·e·ter) like this can measure distances to accuracies specified in micrometers (MI·cro·me·ters). Here, the accuracy of 0.002 mm is equal to 2 µm. A micrometer is, of course, one millionth of a meter or a thousandth of a millimeter. The micron, symbol µ, was originally a special name for this distance, but the name and symbol were officially eliminated in 1968, so it's no longer correct to use microns.

Can I get different sizing, i.e. large top and small bottom?

Why can't I find the small or large size I need in a particular size?

Lids - FAQ's
The smallest size we carry is 6 5/8. The largest size is 8. We will always carry core products in full size runs -- 6 5/8 through 8. Unfortunately, our vendors do not always make "Limited Edition" styles in full size runs, so they may be unavailable in smaller and/or larger sizes. We are always working with our vendors to expand size ranges offered.

Why do you both do so many more small paintings than large ones?

FAQ
Actually, I'd say that Susan and I spend about fifty percent of the time working on larger paintings. But because larger paintings take between one to two weeks to complete and a smaller painting just a day or two, the actual number of small paintings we complete far outnumbers the larger paintings. Plein-air landscapes are even faster, and it's pretty common on a trip to do two or even three a day.

Do SPARQL queries perform well against small datasets? Large datasets?

SPARQL Protocol and Query Language: SPARQL Frequently Asked ...
The performance of a SPARQL query against any particular dataset depends not only upon the size of the dataset but also on the nature of the dataset's storage (a relational store, a native triple store, LDAP, etc.), the complexity of the query itself, optimizations in use by the SPARQL engine, the distribution of the data, and other environmental factors.

What is the difference between the Large, Medium and Small Cargo bags?

SFBags - WaterField Designs - Cargo Mambo Combo Questions
The main difference is that the Large Cargo comes with the option of a padded internal stiffener that allows it to keep its full shape and to stand up on its own. Without the stiffener it is considered a soft bag and will hang more like a traditional messenger bag, though we do use a very substantial custom made ballistic nylon to help give it nice shape. The Large is about 2" deeper than the medium and gets wider and longer at the top allowing the user to insert bigger items.
