After the Chelyabinsk meteorite, we know that the Tunguska event has a mundane explanation: certain types of meteorites are prone to breaking up in the upper layers of the atmosphere, and Tunguska simply exploded the same way the Chelyabins

These surveys assume that primordial black holes are distributed uniformly across galaxies, but this may not be the case if they form small dark globular clusters in the outskirts of galaxies. By small, it is meant that with a total mass of

> Note that in spite of the name it's not a "theory" that gives an clear and accurate prediction. It does make verifiable predictions, and moreover, these predictions are much easier to test than those of string theory, wh

I always wondered why back button in iOS is not working on github, this broken client side routing makes no sense

It’s not "web" in a way you mean that, it uses rust and gpu processing very heavily, up to the point where it just launched by web browser and that’s it

After a severe anxiety episode earlier this year, I ended up forgetting all of February. Feels very strange when I recommend a cafe to a friend and he tells me we were just there together three days ago

The problem is that false vacuum decay spreads at the speed of light, leaving no time for preparation, and the laws of physics would be completely altered without warning. Perhaps future civilizations could resist it, but with our current u

It’s a beautiful theory, and I’d like to believe in it, but with ubiquitous virtual particles, the last particle in the universe would never be alone to reject time

Very strange prediction indeed, the object need an event horizon for hawking radiation to occur

Hawking radiation is a very slow process; one can acquire additional matter (e.g., hydrogen atoms from interstellar or intergalactic space) to compensate for the matter loss
42.
by zero_bias 1y ago
Both explanations are merely simplifications of a truly complex phenomenon, so both are valid. Reducing space-time curvature is equivalent to the absorption of a virtual particle with negative energy

Evaporation isn’t as bad as false vacuum decay. I thought the news would be about that. Fast vacuum decay would be much worse, as civilization can withstand matter loss but not the ultimate false vacuum decay

Humans can’t solve NP-hard problems either, so definition of intelligence shouldn’t lie here, and these particular limits shouldn’t matter too

There is a supermarket chain called Big C in Thailand, and the smallest ones are called Mini Big C, which has always amused me.

Konqueror no longer uses its unique KHTML engine and has switched to working on top of WebKit/Safari, making it just a wrapper, similar to Brave. It’s a pity that the last truly independent player in the browser engine market is gone,

There are a lot of sub Neptune planets, the reason why there are only a few earth alike planets is just lack of powerful telescopes and observation time. As technology improves, we’ll find much more planets like ours. Earth is not unique in
