41,790,229 | comment | nonameiguess | 2024-10-09T17:11:27 | null | This kind of thought experiment seems like it breaks down due to the uncertainty principle. We can't exactly specify the full state of every particle in the universe. The universe might also be infinite and you can't enumerate an infinite set even without uncertainty, though you can write a generating function or recurrence relation for it, which seems to be Wolfram's point.<p>But why bother with this kind of detail? What's the difference between what you're imagining here and a normal reel of film? It can be played back, but even if it isn't, it records the state of events that happened, including observers that once existed and no longer do, experiencing events that once happened but no longer do. It's possible for a record to describe a canonical sequence even if the record itself doesn't change. Somebody outside of the record can view it out of order, speed it up, slow it down, pause it, reverse it. A film reel doesn't share the time dimension of its own universe in that way.<p>I'm struggling to come up with what this implies and why. | null | null | 41,782,770 | 41,782,534 | null | [

There are too many different directions of impact to point out explicitly, so I'll give a short vignette on one of the most immediate impacts, which was the use in protein crystallography. Many aspiring crystallographers correctly reorganized their careers following AlphaFold2, and everyone else started using it for molecular replacement as a way to solve the phase problem in crystallography; the models from AF2 allowed people to resolve new crystal structures from data measured years prior to the AF2 release. | null | null | 41,787,261 | 41,786,101 | null | [

AT&T wanted to sell hardware to other telcos and dot-coms, so spun off Lucent, which had no idea what it wanted to do with P9/Inferno (which was a fantastic piece of kit!) other than embed it into a couple of network products. Lucent bet heavily on unstable CLECs like Worldcom, generated a couple of headline-creating network crashes, and then failed to capitalize on their pole position in optical long-haul (to be fair, they also bet heavily on a very unstable Global Crossing for that).

It was used in the past to refer to an unknown person. I.e. "When a candidate arrives given them the test." You don't know what sex the candidate is before he arrives and instead of saying "he or she" you say "they".<p>But nowadays people use it as a superclass of he and she: "I asked my boss for a raise but they refused". It doesn't make any sense. You know very well what sex your boss is, but "they" is used for virtue signaling. It's a way of saying "I know my boss is a man, but I'm going to use they because a woman could do just a good a job and he, sorry, they does." | null | null | 41,789,786 | 41,787,647 | null | [

The point stands: if you want to refute an argument, do so yourself, possibly with reference to corroborating sources. Don't just say "you're wrong. Go read this stuff to figure out why" -- that's no way to have a discussion. | null | null | 41,786,161 | 41,780,569 | null | null | null | null |
41,790,256 | comment | schiem | 2024-10-09T17:14:52 | null | By summing up the top 60 entries for UK billionares from The Times Rich List for 2024 (which is data from 2023), I get almost exactly 500 billion pounds in net worth (£499.55bn). According to Wikipedia, the UK had a total net worth of $15,972bn USD, which comes out to £12,298bn at the current exchange rate of 0.77 pounds / dollar.<p>That comes out to around 4.1% of the total wealth. However, the number from Wikipedia is from 2022, so this figure isn't going to be entirely accurate. | null | null | 41,783,843 | 41,780,569 | null | null | null | null |
41,790,257 | comment | accrual | 2024-10-09T17:14:55 | null | I find a lot of interesting links between spirituality and physics like this. One idea or message in spirituality is that everything happens exactly as as "the universe" intends it to. It's meant to be a comforting thought as events (good and bad) occur in one's life and to encourage one to detach from outcomes. Yet, it's more or less parallel to classical determinism as you mentioned.<p>> Physically speaking (classically anyway), things all happen right when they are supposed to. | null | null | 41,790,056 | 41,782,534 | null | null | null | null |

In the past, children as young as 7 worked in the coal mines, and doctors treated patients with blood-letting and leeches for all kind of ailments. The fact that old generations accepted things because there were no better alternatives shouldn't leave us blind to the fact that there are, in fact, better ways of doing things.<p>In fact, many of the older generations saw the futility of their workplaces and have written about it, and their works became bestsellers, most likely because many people of the time recognized the crushing soullessness of the workplace.<p>Kafka's The Metamorphosis:<p>"I cannot make you understand. I cannot make anyone understand what is happening inside me. I cannot even explain it to myself."<p>And Bukowski's Factotum:<p>"How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 8:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so?"<p>So, yeah, I do imagine saying that to anyone born a generation prior. I might even write about it and become famous, because that's relevant and important. If nobody objects to it, be it in works of fiction, or with their actions, nothing will change. | null | null | 41,789,588 | 41,786,818 | null | null | null | null |

Nobody was providing military aid to Ukraine before Russia invaded, and even then it was initially of non-lethal nature.<p>2. NATO expansion was an initiative of countries in Central and Eastern Europe, against heavy skepticism by existing NATO members (including the US) -- and not something that the US "promoted". The initiative was in large part a reaction to the Russian war in Chechnya, and overall Russian hostility towards its European neighbors. Whatever glimmer of hope there was in early 1990s for different kind of relations, seeing Russian atrocities in Chechnya squashed them overnight.<p>3. If by "apparent" assurances you mean the conspiracy theory that someone promised Russians that NATO would not accept new members in Europe, then this has been refuted by USSR's top leaders - Gorbachev himself, his foreign minister, defense minister, and others. It's total nonsense.<p>> Of course now in 2024 Ukrainians support the war, but if one were to ask them in 1994 if they would want what they now have in 2024 or would it be OK to continue to be neutral, they would undeniably prefer neutrality and peace.<p>"Neutral option" is how they arrived in the present day. Ukraine was too slow to follow other CEE countries in joining EU and NATO, and wasn't covered by mutual defense guarantees by the time Russians invaded. Ukraine remaining out of strong alliances made the invasion less risky for Russians. That was a mistake. Sweden and Finland -- the last two neutral countries near Russia -- immediately learned from that mistake and joined NATO. | null | null | 41,782,708 | 41,765,734 | null | [

Proof is that content on wordpress still gets viewed and apparently, leads to sales. | null | null | 41,786,003 | 41,775,238 | null | null | null | null |
41,790,297 | comment | rootusrootus | 2024-10-09T17:18:26 | null | Love my little 2K watt inverter generators, but I don't think it's a good substitute for a residential standby unit. I can't get a 240V split phase generator that can be carried, that's the big thing. I could get past the time it takes to turn on the generator, but there's a good chunk of my house that won't run without 240V (unless I want to run extension cords everywhere, which I do not...). | null | null | 41,787,507 | 41,764,095 | null | [

41,790,299 | comment | phkahler | 2024-10-09T17:18:37 | null | >> The firmware usually runs on processors without hardware floating point units.<p>I'm working on control code one an ARM cortex-M4f. I wrote it all in fixed point because I don't trust an FPU to be faster, and I also like to have a 32bit accumulator instead of 24bit. I recently converted it all to floating point since we have the M4f part (f indicate FPU), and it's a little slower now. I did get to remove some limit checking since I can rely on the calculations being inside the limits but it's still a little slower than my fixed point implementation. | null | null | 41,789,284 | 41,784,591 | null | [
