    High-Temperature Superconductivity of Pure Mg Metals, UFOs and Cuprates

    The retired physics professor Auguste Meessen [1] has studied the UFO phenomenon since the late 1960s. From witness reports, he concluded that these craft must use an electromagnet…

    How does mox compare to maddy, another Go all in one mail server ? Does mox support antivirus addition ? Didn't see that in the docs but I may have skipped that section.

    humor: I wonder if the upvotes are cheerings that he finally stepped down or a respectful salute. I give my respectful salute. Go is awesome and I hope it will continue to progress…

    While I agree that we're not there yet, I'm one of the people who assumes that it is feasible to beat humans intellectually.

    The problem is not being unpaid. The problem is lack of verification and control, which itself result from lack of help and participation. You won't fix these problems by throwing …

    What I don't understand is why computers and operating systems have not adopted the TAI as time reference which is monotonic, etc. Time is a complete mess.

    I would have tried parallelism just by curiosity. Split and spread the computation over multiple cores. If you have n cores you could get close to a factor n increase minus the cos…

    It depends on the distribution of probabilities of being used. If least recently used data has the same probability to be requested than the others, then random picking will do as …

    The peer review system is definitely biased. It's ok for many articles, but there are outliers. For instance really original theories or experimental data. The publication may be s…

    The effectiveness really depends on the request pattern. In some use case, the LRU is the most efficient. When it is purely random, it obviously won't be the best as any value has …

    A close up section of the same zone in the images would make them visible. I could hardly see the artefacts in the first place as my attention was caught with the highly contrasted…

    I suggested the certificate solution but it's far from being lightweight. I found a simpler solution that may fit some use cases. The client sends a request, the server returns a r…

    A three way handshake would be simpler and wouldn't waste cpu and energy.

    Thank you. It's the best argument against the certificate suggestion I have read so far. It's a problem I overlooked. Edit: If the server creates the certificate with a three way h…

    I didn't mean to generalize the use of certificate. It would be for a specific protocol for a specific application. I just wanted to justify that we are not required to use three w…

    In prior configuration, the UDP client must get a certificate which uses three way handshake to verify the IP address. Once a client has it's certificate, it can perform transactio…

    The problem result from the ability to forge a fake origin IP address. This can be avoided by adding a certificate for the IP address. It adds a processing and size overhead, but i…

    That voting system seams overly complex, but an idea worth to be explored and tested.
