> Wolfram’s “bigger brains” piece You mean the one linked at the top of the page? Why is this structured like a school book report, written for a teacher who doesn’t have the original piece right in front of them?

Good thing those social media sites haven’t embedded themselves in with the administration and aren’t in a position to execute dragnets for secret accounts of visa applicants.

No, the preamble to the constitution is not law, and it does not set boundaries for the rest of the document.

I imagine players of Bathrom Simulator 2025 find it extremely satisfying. Seriously, I don’t know where this hate is coming from. Is it the idea that a “level” is a maze to be solved? Because there are other styles of gameplay, some where

That’s true but not really helpful for understanding what the amplifier is reading (thanks to nonlinearities down the line.)

You should have a legitimate question as to what dB’s the amp is referring to. What brand and model is it? First, is it actually specified as dB’s? Most amps I’ve seen display volume on an arbitrary scale, no units specified. Second, the am

One note on raising credit limits- Capital One will raise your limit just like every other lender — they want you to have as much debt as they think you can make interest payments on. Probably once you had the increased available credit fro

It’s not like that, in that electrodynamics is not a unique property of cells. But it could still be a useful answer depending on the viewpoint of the person asking and what they were hoping to learn.

Anyone else have the combinatorics song from Square One TV forever burned into their brain? A Cyndi Lauper soundalike explains how many unique bands she can form by choosing from an expanding pool of musicians. Catchy! https://yo

Well they don't just know the "general location" of a ship. The article addresses the problem of terminal guidance (using out of date information) but it seems to treat targeting issues as fatal flaws, rather than acceptable

The count and function of China’s satellite fleet is no mystery. We see their payloads go up, same as they see ours. Very much the same way they see our boats leave port, in fact.

This starts with the false premise that the adversary needs to search the entire ocean. In reality, the comings and goings of our ships are as public as it gets, and our peers quite easily track and maintain awareness of the locations of al

You’ve misunderstood the pedagogy of Rosenblatt. It is essentially what you describe. Resonate does not mean mirror, it’s more like sympathy from a personal connection. You need “resonances between the work and each reader’s individual expe

A lot of these tricks I first learned from Noah Spurrier’s acidwarp.exe VGA demos in the 90s. Now I’m wondering who first published these trig function pixel paint tricks. Somewhere between HAKMEM munching squares and the 80s demoscene?
