According to the article this uses plasma explosions and a working medium of metal particles. Wouldn’t both lead to easier traceability (sound, metal)?

Isn’t noise sometimes intentional? I actually like places where you can talk without too many listeners, even though they are packed, because of the noise floor. Not being able to understand the other parties can also be a benefit.

Difference to CERN would be that no company is financing high energy physics while AI is frenzily funded. But getting new models and insights (in the public domain) is a good idea.

Or maybe because this is actually the fascinating story about someone who -- in true hacker spirit -- creates a completely new genre despite having only two fingers available for fretwork after he got burned badly. Which was all news to me.

The quality of this has become amazing. Clear voice with expression. Fitting instruments. Good mix. Creativity though? These non-poetic songs (I heard “Lorem Ipsum” the other day) are a fun novelty because a machine creates this in no time.

Yes. I have a framework for an embedded system that uses various types of sensors. When changing a sensor, instead of rewriting the polling loop for every new case, I can keep looping through ‘sensor[i]->sampleNow()’ and add the specific

All great advice. Except for “avoid passive”. It’s a part of the toolbox that changes the perspective on an action. “The pull request got merged” vs. “The maintainer merged the pull request”. If i want to talk about the new feature that get

The Swedish Mile (= 10km) is still in use and once tripped me up when searching for a used car. They were all wonderfully cheap until I realized that 50,000 on the website actually meant 500,000km driven.

It is very much present tense at least to me. It’s among the first programs on all new Windows machines that I set up. Plus, there are Windows Store and portable versions which help to use it on otherwise locked-down company computers.

The paper seems to say that gravitational waves cause neutron stars to collide. Isn’t it the other way around? (A collision emits gravitational waves)? https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.03593

Yes. And placebo control is actually quite a weak standard (= better than nothing). Ideally, there should be more head-to-head studies. Alas, they are also more likely to fail (and give the competition data) so developers avoid them, at lea
