You said "proven" and now you're saying "[not] so far fetched." I still think it's far fetched, but I'm satisfied that you aren't claiming proof anymore.

A twin futon mattress atop a cardboard frame, to prevent orgies? I'm no Olympic athlete, but I'm pretty sure you can drag a bunch of mattresses into a room, discard the cardboard, and have a rollicking fuckpile. Lesson learned in

> It's all time, right? Sure, but we can measure time dilation between the peak of a mountain and the base of a mountain, due to the differing velocities. Time is relative!

This echoes a thought I had recently -- stars traveling at relativistic speeds should look deceptively young due to time dilation. But while this is certainly speedy, mere hundreds of km/s isn't enough to significantly prolong th

We are not evidence that aliens capable of colonizing gas giants exist.

Many people don't want to risk accidentally surfacing a nude while showing off other pictures and delete them more or less immediately. So it's merely a bright-line indicator; where other decisions to delete or not may be more ea

Until evidence to the contrary is found, it is not reasonable to assume that aliens are going around making planets. I say no, we have no reason to make such an assumption. If we think we've done a good job enumerating all of the way

If social media is read and written by agents, can we just put our phones down and get back to living in meatspace? Perhaps it's the best thing to ever happen to social media.

Well, my brother is a musician and rents a room in a large house. He doesn't have a sugar mama/papa, music pays the the bills because he's actually frugal. For decades my dad implored him to "get a job" but in his

There's an incredibly simple result of Sturm that allows one to compute intervals bounding the real roots of polynomials. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturm%27s_theorem That said, if you're working with fin

Yeah, but you can't pick a random real number with uniform distribution. Something's gotta give.

Start a militia or STFU. And since you seem disinclined to STFU, you clearly don't have the opsec to start a competent militia. So just STFU already.

Believe it or not, I feel the same way. But writing angry screed on the internet accomplishes literally nothing. Worse, it further entreches the people you disagree with.

I was excited by this in theory, but it's some of the worst cold brew I've had. For shame, Costco is usually pretty good for selecting quality. Then again, my favorite preparation of cold brew is a shot of concentrate straight f

This is quite upsetting, and yet not at all a surprise. We're taking the same damaging approach to power that we always have, but now with solar. In addition to the sibling comments, another better approach is to blend solar with farm

Speaking as an American: yes. Bush and Obama are war criminals and I'd say that they belong in Gitmo but I'm more principled than that and we need to shut Gitmo down.

Not every news source need report on every story. Especially in times of war, it's important to read every side's coverage of both themselves and the other side.

Technically speaking, Landauer allows you to pay for extracted data on a bit-for-bit basis -- you don't need to pay for the whole computation as long as you're willing to spend approximately the same amount of time undoing it as y
