The article is refreshingly short and to the point. Unusually, it does not aim the waste the maximum amount of your time so why don't you read it.

This is true, however in this case the tensile strength of the casing needs to be focused into a small area and that is done by translating the pressure from a large area into a small one.

Tensile strength is pulling. The diamond anvil needs compressive strength.

And why can't I find any research on using the magnetocaloric effect to achieve superconductivity? It's an obvious idea to try.

Full AGI has little economic use aside from a brief resurgence of slavery. Its real value lies in creating an alien, terrestrial, intelligence to which we can compare and learn about ourselves. Philosophically AGI is ancient and has always

Shuffles lots of bits in parallel, low latency.

The CPU / RAM bottleneck isn't getting any faster. Latency is actually increasing with newer versions of DDR. Most of your CPU time is spent waiting on memory. Compilers are hard-pressed to make you choose efficient data-structure

Microcode is a defining trait for x86. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Microcode This is very different from how e.g. ARM architectures work.

That is part of the definition I suggested. If we knew it was there, then it would be part of our universe. It's a one-way valve on knowledge but I still think it is useful to define it. There is plenty of work to be done on the defini

I'm not sure! I have thought about it a lot though. On one hand yes, it feels like it should be the same. On the other hand, it is not parsimonious to create another space when there is plenty of room left in this one. Should we define

If two forms of matter coexist in the same space but they do not interact in any way including inertia, are they separate universes?

It is a wonderful feeling in machining when you figure out how to transfer features mechanically without going through a numerical intermediate. You are essentially working with a compass and straightedge in your mind, comparing surfaces, l

The closest would probably be glass on a bed of mercury. Differences in rate of cooling leads to uneven stresses and minute bends. Similarly while handling and working the surface plates you need to let them reach thermal equilibrium. Large

A billion years of instinct must lead to uncertainty and mixed feelings. We great apes are a strange apparition in the cosmos, capable of glimpsing the absurdity of our own existence. "What a piece of work is a man! How noble in reason

A quick search indicates they have free plans up to a certain number of active users and then you need to call them. So apparently they keep their pricing secret.

You could still read their charter online 10 or so years ago. Their mission was defense. Today they have replaced it with "Mission & Values" which they define without any immediately apparent legal basis.

It's their charter to do this kind of work. They should be working on defense, not offense.

It would be poetically just if people who constantly lie lost the ability to discern the truth. If someone has a slightly more rigorous justification for the notion I would be happy to hear it.
