And Yoshi. And Pfirsich, which is Peach in German

The cantor set exists in a real phenomenon? Any real phenomenon? That makes me feel like we live in a simulation perhaps more than anything else I’ve heard. This story is a nice de…

Producing large quantities of drug resistant bacteria sounds at least BSL3. The principle might make sense, but one wouldn’t “spray the fields” of something like that.

Nice article, but framing it around the doomsday clock felt like the author just needed to express his angst on whatever page was in front of him

This comment and the article they came from are a perfect snapshot of this moment. The fact that major players at each company have made public statements about the philosophical d…

What does this do that mathcad doesn’t?

Yeah, you got it. Building numbers—banchi blocks—label the age of the building, not its position in space. The only people for whom many addresses are physically findable seems to …

Quick shout out to NAND Game, a version of this laid out as a computer game. Delightful, free, web-based. http://nandgame.com/

The most exciting news is that they made several extremely deep dives in quick succession, advancing the way to a future of regular deep sea exploration. Congrats to the team!

This is of the same flavor as wondering if said species would invent money, a collective fiction of usefulness so obvious it has been created many times. Or perhaps it’s closer to …

Does this mean managed bibliographies will finally become a reality in google docs? That’s the only thing keeping me from using it much.
