An enigma is someone or something that is mysterious or puzzling.
Enigma or aenigma may refer to:
Brine is a solution of salt (usually sodium chloride) in water. In different contexts, brine may refer to salt solutions ranging from about 3.5% (a typical concentration of seawater, or the lower end of solutions used for brining foods) up to about 26% (a typical saturated solution, depending on temperature). Other levels of concentration are called in different names:
It is held that 0 °F (−17.78 °C) was initially set as the zero point in the Fahrenheit temperature scale, as it was the coldest temperature that Daniel G. Fahrenheit could reliably reproduce by freezing brine.
At 100 °C (373.15 K, 212 °F), saturated sodium chloride brine is about 28% salt by weight i.e. 39.12 g salt dissolves in 100 mL of water at 100 °C. At 0 °C (273.15 K, 32 °F), brine can only hold about 26% salt.
The thermal conductivity of seawater (3.5% dissolved salt by weight) is 0.6 W/mK at 25 °C. The thermal conductivity decreases with increasing salinity and increases with increasing temperature; these graphs and online calculations plot thermal conductivity for varying salinity and temperature:
In communications and information processing, code is a system of rules to convert information—such as a letter, word, sound, image, or gesture—into another form or representation, sometimes shortened or secret, for communication through a channel or storage in a medium. An early example is the invention of language, which enabled a person, through speech, to communicate what he or she saw, heard, felt, or thought to others. But speech limits the range of communication to the distance a voice can carry, and limits the audience to those present when the speech is uttered. The invention of writing, which converted spoken language into visual symbols, extended the range of communication across space and time.
The process of encoding converts information from a source into symbols for communication or storage. Decoding is the reverse process, converting code symbols back into a form that the recipient understands.
One reason for coding is to enable communication in places where ordinary plain language, spoken or written, is difficult or impossible. For example, semaphore, where the configuration of flags held by a signaller or the arms of a semaphore tower encodes parts of the message, typically individual letters and numbers. Another person standing a great distance away can interpret the flags and reproduce the words sent.
Maybe my eyes don’t lie. Is that why you look at me like it’s my
confession?
All sin and sacrifice, that’s just the way I taste when you feed the tension.
Oh, hear me out.
Oh, hear me out.
I lie when I say 'I’m fine. Yeah, the pain makes sense. I'll get over it.'
I lie and the consequence is you’ll never know what you’ll never get
by tearing me all down.
This only feels right now but I know it’s not the same, just the same
intention.
I miss you for your mind and body goes with it, but for the apprehension.
Oh, hear me out.
Oh, hear me out.
I lie when I say 'I’m fine. Yeah, the pain makes sense. I'll get over it.'
I lie and the consequence is you’ll never know what you’ll never get
by tearing me all down for you.
Somebody had to go and be honest. Be honest.
Somebody had to go and sing nothing but the truth in code.
Oh, hear me out.
Oh, hear me out.
I lie when I say 'I’m fine. Yeah, the pain makes sense. I'll get over it.'
I lie and the consequence is you’ll never know what you’ll never get
