I don't get why we talk about using complex numbers when doing quantum physics. What's really important is that we use numbers from an algebraically closed field (complex numbers being just a simple example). This makes…
In the broadest sense Android and IOS are similar to browsers: All are platforms that execute code given in a certain format and have APIs for interacting with the device. (The browser is different in that it doesn't…
I have never been given a probiotic while getting an antibiotic. Seems like a good idea. Is that a common thing? Does the evidence support this?
Quantum computers deserve to be mentioned in discussions about analog computers. Under the assumption that nature is quantum at its core it follows that every analog computer could instead by replaced by a quantum…
Why not load the minimal required content for it to look right first (e. g. thumbnail, video controls) and load everything else once the rest of the page has been loaded (e. g. buffer the first few seconds of the…
On the framework discord it is speculated that it is most likely from the Lenovo Thinkbook 13x Gen 4 [1] [2]. Would fit in terms of specs, rounded corners etc. [1]…
I agree - I think it is pretty clear that there is a difference between programming languages and other languages. Figuring out the differences (instead of getting wrong ideas because they share some similarities)…
Stimming helps autistic people. Refraining from stimming leads to increased anxiety in autism [1]. It can very well be the case that it does not help any allistic people, I'm not familiar with the literature in that…
Maybe stimming helps people with PTSD, too. Has anybody tried that?
Functions make assumptions all the time and there is often no way to specify them except with type information. E. g. one can specify that a function takes a float as input but not that the float has to be in [0.0,…
That not every customer wants an EV or that an EV is not the best car for every customer is no excuse for sales reps being subpar when it comes to EVs. Especially when the car industry does not take sales rep…
Relying on no bugs in the entire software stack makes the attack surface quite large. If a laptop is stolen the thief can wait sufficiently long for some vulnerability to be discovered somewhere in the stack. With LUKS…
They sent out an e mail an hour ago, batch 2 shipments starting later in October.
Does this hold up when taking quantum mechanics into account? Let's assume you need at least m = n^2 particles for a physical system modelling a n by n matrix and model the change of the system from setting the state of…

I'm from Germany, here sport is integrated into the timetable like every other subject. Sport is not that important here so I might underestimate the amount/impact of sports in US high schools. I'd say that more sport…
It would be interesting to measure IQ in childhood and 20 or 30 years later to see how many people have a significantly lower IQ as adults because of poor health choices.
Works in Gnome too.
I got a (consumer) SSD from SanDisk that says on the package "Compatible with Windows and Linux systems that take M.2 2280 PCIe 3 x 4 NVMe SSD's" yet I can't update the firmware from Linux. I would have to download the…
One effect that might also be at play here is, assuming that excellence follows a Pareto distribution: If your team is very good, i.e. on one end of the distribution, most products will be made by teams that are…
What about a HTML tag that includes a hash sum? Only request the resource if not already present. That could enable cross-website resource caching without leaking information. (IF the resource the site sends if…
I'm also from Germany and learned about that genocide in school.
Why doesn't that mean that coins can only be transferred through the sneakernet? If you get coins from someone else do you have to trust them to have the plot still around?
In programming the variables are saved in RAM and RAM is limited and has scopes (e.g. global scope, local scope). You also have linked lists, arrays etc. I imagine spatial navigation is very useful to handle all of…
