As far as I'm concerned, this change is long overdue: Browsers should never have granted arbitrary websites the ability to port scan your local machine and network. Note that Opera came with cross network protections a decade ago, cf

I am not a forgiving person. Were this man 40, or 50, or even 70, things would be different. But he is an old man at the end of his life. Any sentence will take this into account, but determination of guilt is orthogonal to that.

Given this context, my question is, for special relativity, why do time dilation and length contraction happen? Place two rulers right next to each other, and their length scales will agree. Now, place them at an angle, and have one ruler

Thinking of spacetime as some sort of expanding fabric permeating every-day objects is not a good analogy in my opinion. First, like any other gravitational effect, locally, spatial expansion would manifest as pseudo-forces that can be coun

No matter how fast you accelerate, you'll chew up distances at a local(!) rate of less than c, so it's enough to consider the limiting case of light and skip the complications introduced by acceleration. The analogous classical pr
