Wow this is awesome! I’ve been using ChatGPT to create TikZ diagrams because honestly it’s not trivial to create TikZ diagrams and they look really good when done well. However it …

UofR physic grad that also worked at the LLE here. Agree Rochester schools are underrated (although admittedly a little biased). At least in the sciences you have access to lots of…

It’s ironic what you wrote because it was Carl Sagan who first developed the theory to explain the Venusian climate. I met Carl Sagan and he was not a person who dumbed down anythi…

We are still in a regime where the growth of logical qubits is far below the point of any practical computing utility let alone at a level capable of breaking existing codes. While…

Totally. I started baking pies because it was a tradition in my family and my wife can’t cook. To make sure my kids had the family food tradition I learned to bake. Once you get a …

The GP has a point about the state of journalism generally and the pervasive nature in which Yellow journalism is returning. One need not be anti-intellectual to find the state of …

Midnight PRs sounds really sad. Pager duty; I mean you’re not saving people in the ER. Everything you’ve written comes off as profoundly selfish and self-centered. God forbid your …

By what metric is the US lagging? By any objective measure we can see the dominance of US technology. I think it’s most of the rest of the world that’s being left behind; Europe in…

Parental controls are all about illusion of control. In reality the kids all know how to get around them. Try just try to block Gmail. It’s impossible. Gmail is the gateway to kids…

I think Google’s search and ad business are at risk. Search has become such a mess that it’s become harder and harder to use to find quality results. It reminds me of Yahoo before …

Sure, by the time China clones this generation of tin droplet ASML EUV machines at production scale, the market will have shifted to free-electron lasers.

Yep you provide a great example of a word used as regional slang for the word television . The word telly is not in common usage in the United States. It’s understood here to be UK…

Isn’t “telly” English slang for television? It’s a regional slang that’s not universally used.

This is 100% incorrect as you’ve written it. The GRE is based on English vocabulary. It’s true that many words have Greek, Latin, or French roots but they are most certainly not La…

I’m old enough to remember being able to scrounge around the house for pennies and heading down to Gracie’s corner store so I could buy some Swedish fish. They were 1 cent each. Gr…

Maybe the jury needed 7 hours to determine if the bread was stale enough to cause bodily harm. Perhaps the crime here is the waste of a perfectly good sandwich.

Visible will always be expensive because it’s very niche and low volume. So the techniques here are only practical economically for the large volumes of light sources required for …

Not surprising at all to me after several summer trips to interior Alaska. The mosquitoes are so thick that you inhale them sometimes; which is so disgusting. I slathered myself in…

Concur your response; you can get a 48hr transit visa on demand in China. The requirement is that you leave via the same port of entry.

Do you have any data to back this claim up or are you just stating your opinion? I was routinely detained at passport control because there was a bad guy with my same name. It took…

I run a team. So for me this is like having 2-3 extra people to just do some exploratory work and prototyping. Having actual people to do this is a luxury I don’t have and can’t ju…
