Took long in Europe and is still ongoing for most of it, it will take even longer in the US.<p>People might be stubborn enough to only turn away from cars when the big traffic jams are all made of self driving electric cars with one or two people inside going all to the same places. | null | null | 41,811,145 | 41,805,706 | null | null | null | null |

41,812,512 | comment | lupire | 2024-10-11T19:10:22 | null | What absurd definition are you using that makes Stephen Wolfram not a physicist?<p>Wolfram is more of a physicist than most physicists.<p>Wikipedia:<p>He entered St. John's College, Oxford, at age 17 and left in 1978[17] without graduating[18][19] to attend the California Institute of Technology the following year, where he received a PhD[20] in particle physics in 1980.[21] Wolfram's thesis committee was composed of Richard Feynman, Peter Goldreich, Frank J. Sciulli and Steven Frautschi, and chaired by Richard D. Field.[21][22]<p>In the mid-1980s, Wolfram worked on simulations of physical processes (such as turbulent fluid flow) with cellular automata on the Connection Machine alongside Richard Feynman[29] and helped initiate the field of complex systems.[citation needed] In 1984, he was a participant in the Founding Workshops of the Santa Fe Institute, along with Nobel laureates Murray Gell-Mann, Manfred Eigen, and Philip Warren Anderson, and future laureate Frank Wilczek.[30] In 1986, he founded the Center for Complex Systems Research (CCSR) at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign.[31] In 1987, he founded the journal Complex Systems.[31]<p>From 1992 to 2002, Wolfram worked on his controversial book A New Kind of Science,[4][33] which presents an empirical study of simple computational systems. Additionally, it argues that for fundamental reasons these types of systems, rather than traditional mathematics, are needed to model and understand complexity in nature. Wolfram's conclusion is that the universe is discrete in its nature, and runs on fundamental laws which can be described as simple programs. He predicts that a realization of this within scientific communities will have a revolutionary influence on physics, chemistry, biology, and a majority of scientific areas in general, hence the book's title | null | null | 41,812,169 | 41,808,127 | null | null | null | null |

41,812,527 | comment | sph | 2024-10-11T19:11:35 | null | Pretty much no one should be taking statins. The side effects are well studied, while the benefits are dubious at best.<p>For example: <i>high</i> cholesterol levels is actually positively correlated with longevity, believe it or not. If you consume a diet low in sugars, thus routinely burning fat when fasted, you will have "high" cholesterol in blood. How do you think fats are moved to cells in need? Through the blood, of course.<p>I'd go so far as to say that statins are pretty much a scam, that fixes a useless and quite complex metric such as cholesterol levels. Given that cholesterol levels are a diagnostic easily accessible to GPs, they prescribe statins to see this figure go lower, even if it doesn't make the person any healthier. Incidentally it's similar to taking GLP-1 agonists instead of learning to have a healthier relationship with food. | null | null | 41,811,607 | 41,811,263 | null | null | null | null |

So even Newtonian mechanics originated in solving problems trying to explain measurements, not that someone sat in their chamber and dreamed up cool math that happened to be very useful. | null | null | 41,811,668 | 41,808,127 | null | null | null | null |
