I believe that I may have just designed the best fire extinguisher ever - for underground fires - in application of superfluid quantum gravity to plasma physics. Oh and also it looks like the same physics enable yield, stability, and safety

Does this confirm or reject a model of Superfluid Quantum Gravity like Fedi's with a dilatant superfluid? Here's a star with an eccentric orbit around a superfluid black hole. It says there are stress risers, and the FTLE "fr

But then what do you call coding without tests? This says - if coding with an LLM - to write the tests before you commit. Is there a name for AI looping until there's test coverage? Did this study require >98% test coverage? Line or
