I'm super interested in cellular automata. One thing that particular piques my interest is the diversity of possible automata, not just forms in any particular one, but diversity o…

Economic value isn't the sum of energy spent. If increasing efficiency can increase the value of a set amount of energy, it can also increase the value of a decreasing amount of en…

As a fellow numberphile viewer, I accept your authority on the topic, and will probably repeat this guess as fact later.

I like the first principles thinking, but what if they do have a secret place? What if it goes to the roots and then into fungi and bacteria in the soil or something?

I agree with this mostly, but I do wish my car had stainless steel instead of paint. Paint is the most fragile part of the car and it's dealing with that is a fact of life but it s…

I thought it was because apes fight by grabbing and tearing, so with that evolutionary pressure applied you basically end up with the minimum effective protrusion. Also, this is wh…

This guy Dyson spheres

Isn't this the kind of thing that is possible with less than 100% mortality? Like the northern cooler part survives and the reef moves that way?

Why not? It doesn't ultimately require increasing resources extraction. Increasing efficiency or technological capability could have the same outcome

Just talking energy density is a little misleading if internal combustion engines can't capture most of it

It's a test flight

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Cuda dominance is the darkest timeline. OpenCL was the utopia timeline.

It's very arrogant to take your understanding of the benefit of the truth, finding it lacking, and then assuming that this is same negligible benefit the truth will have for everyo…

I think it could be real. UV charges water vapor, or something like that, so it's basically indirect solar. Just like pretty much everything else is.

Did you read the article? It's like banana-tier level radioactive water that are going to release.

What is your source here? I am from DC and it's pretty well known that it is a planned city. Look up the L'Enfant Plan. I'm not really sure what you are talking about.

What is sort of ironic is that they were already leading in that area too, they have one of the best labs in the world for that kind of research. But they didn't really do much pub…

It's possible to run with a cpu and then use system memory.

Sadly, one of the lessons of Covid Era I think is I think like this kind of windfall would just destroy everyone spending discipline, and then prices would just inflate correspondi…

I thought it was doing hard work in the compiler to make the binary safe for processors.

20 wires for 112 options seems like a lot. Shouldn't there be some way to just logic it down to something like 7? Need to break out the karnaugh map.
