As a full-blown queer autonomous neo Marxist, I own my own f*** company. Have done so for 5 years now. We pay all workers their fair share of the socially necessary production time. If the organization needs surplus to invest in equipment,

Well it's a shell game, right? On the one hand here's this huge valuation and future profit. On the other hand, the workers get just a small fraction of that value and still live in squalor. Is that where your billions come from?

The scary part is that sci hub is in danger! It's been under massive legal attack in a few jurisdictions, and as far as I know, has stopped scraping. Many, many papers from after 2021 that are not available. It has become a major issu

That reminds me I've been meaning to offer a contribution to your farming robot! For ease of interoperability, I'd like to build a one way automation that occasionally exports your OnShape design into your GitHub. That makes it ea

I think that dirac delta solutions let us model point particles. We can lift differential operators onto the space of D' of distributions. This lets us extend the pde solution set with distributions. Conceptually this is how we would m

Okay, fair point, I was not understanding that topological defects are points in solution space that are not path connected to the vacuum solution. I'm learning as I'm going! Now I also realize that the paper seems to say that the

Again I consider the terms synonyms. The solitons/defects belong to the poisson equation for newtonian gravity. I called that a gravitational field equation, since it models gravity as a field. You called it a scalar field model becaus

Please forgive me for double dipping, and read my other response on the soliton/topological defect matter. Re: stability / realism My concern comes at a point even before yours - the solution given is in a spherically symmetric an

In my usage, a soliton and a topological defect are synonyms for certain isolated solutions to differential equations. Please replace soliton with topological defect in my statement above and see if it makes more sense. The idea is there ar

Note that many icebergs have more than one equilibrium, with various final heights above the water. For example this iceberg towers above the water in one equilibrium, but barely rises above the water in its other equilibrium. https:/

I was about to post something similar. But you nailed it before I could swing my own hammer, to use a figure of speech.

Many collaborators I've talked to have shown confusion about why they should do things to cause some far away revolutionary improvement to their own lives, or even less the lives of others, when it would involve putting themselves and

Plus, humans bullshit all the time, even well paid and highly trained humans like Doctors and Lawyers. They will bullshit while charging you 400 an hour. Then they'll gaslight you if you try to correct their bullshit. AI will bullshit

Topological defects - also known as soliton solutions - are isolated solutions of PDEs that cannot be continuously deformed into the ordinary solutions. This is saying that the observed effects of DM could be explained as a bunch of enormou

It was a speech recognition issue! Yes, I'm talking about the dirac delta function.

You have no proof that every modification of the architecture will continue to have hallucinations. How could you prove that? Even LeCunn admits that the right modification could solve the issue. You're trying to make this point in a c

You define the density function of the shell using a direct Delta function and the derivative of a direct Delta function. That means that on the shelf the density doesn't take any real value. But we can formally integrate Delta functio

The sense in which they are defects is that on the shell, the density function is a distribution and takes no real value. Distributions are singularities/non-functions that we get when we take certain limits of ordinary functions, or s

You're off on two points; number of shells and the mass of the shells. First, the number of shells is finite. This actually gives us one of the points where we can test this theory: Namely, if there are discrete shells, their effect on

The corruption is systematic and automated, so the struggle and response must be systematic and automated as well as forceful. Not knee jerk. But more organized than simple individuals doing the right thing. And much more forceful. It must
