No, they aren’t gimmicks. The advantage of a quantum-based entropy sources are that they are often much faster than other hardware based entropy source. They are called ‘quantum’ because they exploit randomness present in particle behaviors

Ah yes, replacing the ‘elites’ with a single person, much less scary. And, to be clear, the ‘elites’ are still in power (because, in America, power tends to follow money). The only thing that seems to be happening is the rapid destruction o

What does that snopes article have to do with what you said? Free syringes make sense because people will find disease-prone means to get their fix, and then they end up in emergency rooms requiring more expensive care.

I’d argue that no narcissists did all of those things. Elon doesn’t like patents and doesn’t share credit for IP he has no connection to other than ownership, so he didn’t do any of those things.

It is less about the quality of work, but that the source itself should have some form of ‘blame.’ Plagiarism is still a risk, and the main deterrence against it is the reputation of the authors.

No sympathy, are you implying that the victim here is somehow to blame, or is instigating this behavior? If so, this is analogous to victim blaming. If you decide not to waste your resources to combat someone who has wronged you, you are no

A better hypothesis would be that there are diminishing returns for the hours in a day a person has. Getting back 4 hours when you are currently working 12 hours has a ton more impact than getting back 4 hours when you only work eight.
