Eventually they have to let you through though. They can't send you to a detention center for not unlocking your phone, you're a US citizen and you're not being compelled by a court to do anything. They might keep you in a ro

According to Monica they've failed to return her emails so please understand why I'm sceptical of SE here.

If you got fired for being assertive then that company did you a favour. You don't want to work at that place.

So they still won't say exactly what Monica did to deserve being de-modded, and they still won't reinstate her. Nothing to see here.

You are right - most physicists believe that quantum supremacy is possible, and if we discover that in fact it is not, then we'll need to understand why.

Even if this 'computation' is useless at everything except proving quantum supremacy is possible, that's still a serious milestone.

If it was 1 million GBP then maaaaaybe you'd be able to spend it somewhere (e.g. a casino might take it from a VIP high roller I guess?) but at 100 million I don't think you'd be able to do anything in practice besides take i

I think usually metal gears are not cut by laser cutter or CNC router, but instead slotted using a milling cutter one tooth at a time and then the blank is rotated to the next position to cut the next tooth. But of course if your metal gear

Yea agreed. Also if hardware manufacturers did a bigger share of the file and storage system, they could in theory add some hardware optimisations for the most important filesystem software requirements. The kind of things you can't do

Around my area in Sydney a few new street signs have been popping up banning traffic from driving through at certain times of the day, without actually changing the roads. The signs say for example 'No right turn 7am-10am' which i

So the problem is that a normal road costs on the order of $3 million per mile, and a solar road costs... 10 times as much. And it doesn't last as long. It just does not make sense.
