I've been using my current window manager (fluxbox) for far more years than he's been alive. Now talk about muscle memory!

Here in Brazil criminals are starting to use those to send phishing SMS, exploiting our ubiquitous mobile payment system (pix) or pretending to be a second authentication factor for banks.

In my PhD I did study systems in higher dimensions (including fractal dimensions) and it is not a metaphor and no, I did not visualize them, it was more like defining a mathematical representation of the system geometry and working on top o

Come on, I've been doing this since I was like 4 years old, this can't be news for anyone, Am i right???

It's not a particle, it is a quasi-particle. Those are field manifestations that happen on solid state, like solitons and holes, so it is cool, but no fundamental change do the standard model or anything like that.

About your first point, "outpaces current supercomputers, solving tasks in minutes that would otherwise take billions of years.", that is the point of the article. They used their computer to model a system that can't be veri

following that definition even fossil fuels would be based on fusion, as most of it is comprised of photosynthetic life forms.

Quantum computing seems to be in the same realm as nuclear fusion as a power source. My Quantum theory professor used to say that in the 1960's, when he was a physics student in the Soviet Union it was "the energy of the future, i

A big problem in science in general is reproducibility. There are thousands of papers being published every month with peer review, which prunes out the most obvious errors, but the whole system is built on trust. Very few labs around the w

I kinda read this paper, and holy crap, it's what we used to call in college "one of those guys", during the early 2000's. A computer scientist or engineer who is reasonably competent in his area, but that for some reaso

And after all of that you basically have something that looks like postgres or mysql.

I IS a physics problem. Non physicists tend of think that the only areas being studied are high energy and/or cosmology, but modern physics covers a multitude of areas, including complex systems.

Not all modelling is physics, but a rather large part of modeling is. My PhD is in complex systems, and you would be surprised by the range of systems we did study. My work was on a more "traditional" field of high dimension fract

I remember at some point some novelty shops selling bluetooth and wired phones resembling old school landline phones, those could be a useful starting point for such a design.

I've been using xen in production for at least 18 years, and although there is been some development, it is extremely hard to get actual documentation on how to do things with it. There is no place documenting how to integrate the Dom0

Brazil has a long history of dubbing, not only translating but also localizing tv shows and movies. In some cases the shows are actually better dubbed, because the voice actors are better at emoting than the original cast.

It's not tmux specific, i have had the same issue and for me, it was a showstopper.

For the bathroom mirror there are already DIY designs called "magic mirrors" using half reflective mirrors in front of a tv screen, which are immensely more cost effective than transparent screens.

More than that, in developing countries, such as my own, Meta has peering agreements with telephony companies which allow said companies to offer basic plans where traffic to Meta applications (mostly whatsapp) is not billed. This would cer

As it is usual with ALL plants, the carbon is usually used to build plant matter. So the algae in the cells are certainly reproducing, which brings the question of algae growth management. This system can not operate as a closed loop cell,

From my limited understanding, a smaller, more specialized model could produce more accurate responses, but the main thesis of the article would still be true. Such LLMs would still be statistic prediction models, with no concept of reali

It's exactly what i've been doing for the last 12 years. IBM Spacesaver keyboards + vim keybindings everywhere possible, and during the year, stretching forearms everyday.
