> We just need to find the social structures to provide people with basic needs and reserve "work" for things that are vital to society or truly inspired. just?

> If that's the case, then you should be able to provide tons of evidence. It's difficult to "hide" or "manipulate" data in a country the size of china that is tied to the global t…

> I've always had the feeling that AI researchers want to build their own human without having to change diapers being part of the process. Just skip to adulthood please, and learn…

China is decades behind the West in EUV technology. The attempt to create an independent supply chain is also a forced choice since all the EUV supply chain and knowledge pool are …

the statistics would be different. Check out Rabi oscillations (classical EM) vs Jaynes-Cummings model (quantized EM) and phenomena like quantum antibunching (only possible for qua…

Why does it need an internet connection?

Still the question remains, are they dangerous? I guess some materials in the body have some response to magnetic fields

With typical usage they contain more sensitive data and people are less aware of what happens in them than PCs. And mobile phones are perfect spying devices too. So the security qu…

Honestly what you describe seems to be an attempt by Apple PR to save face. They fear the spotlight on the fact that even on alternate stores only accounts controlled by Apple can …

Southern Gaza, Israel considers a part of Southern Gaza an humanitarian zone and dropped fliers explaining that.

So what do you think would happen if terrorists took over the MIT campus, students sympathized with them, rockets were launched from it, and the US police had no presence there and…

Even accepting that, you can ask what is the limit after which you can say that the occupied does morally reprehensible things

No. It will be slow as hell But something like El Capitan will be somehow acceptable and Lion will be actually usable

The more elaborate books of the Bible, like Isaiah/Yeshayahu and Psalms/Tehillim, make use of this kind of structure a lot in the original. You can easily find "triple chiasms" wit…

China is now the biggest car exporter, thanks to the electric car boom. Are there state security issues with Chinese cars too?

That's "just" special relativity. I would suggest to see it exposed in current textbooks. Spoiler: E=m_rest c2 + E_kinetic unless you redefine the mass as a function of velocity. S…

We don't have lie detectors even for AIs and we can look at every single bit inside them

FYI it doesn't render too well on my phone. The image overflows horizontally.

Making open source, transparent, auditable, voting machines that can be trusted to be secure and are more efficient than physical counting is a very interesting challenge. A challe…

I think they tried to make a compromise with the closer to phonetic transcription they could get with the least invasive spelling change they could impose. Not something 100% accur…

Sometimes even the entire word is pronounced differently: read/read

Apart from the fact that Russia is not the only hostile power trying to infiltrate Western organizations, I find the premise incredibly sexist, as if men are presumably more likely…

What would be so terrible? Some people will be naturally curious, as always, and they will go deeper. And even languages like Javascript influenced the design of CPUs and even spec…

My philosophy on this is to treat C++ and C as completely different languages (as they actually are), like say Java and C or python and C. Yes it's nice that some part of the heade…

Very nice but the article could do without using the term "standard model". I get that she is talking about the standard cosmological model and she leaves it uncapitalized, but it …
