im not even disagreeing with you, but i hate that hn seems to have this penchant to point out that unreasonable assertions may still be true despite being ludicrous. can facts emerge from a hypocrite? yes of course, but…
smoking is not an appropriate analogy at least insofar it is primarily damaging to the individual (claims of second hand smoke aside), whereas exposing oneself during covid is more broadly damaging as the purpose of…
that's not right. if photons were truly spin 1, there would be 3 spin eigenstates available, but in fact there are only 2 (Sz=0 is unavailable). the pithy argument invokes the absence of a stationary frame of reference.…
i understand what you mean now. you are referring to the yield of treasury bonds, which, at least historically for <10 year tbills, do track the fed rate.
What do you think you mean by saying 'drives interest rates down'. It seems a leap to think the fed, the entity that establishes the interest rate, will react in the way you describe.
i did not read the study. an obvious confounding factor is that doctors with better board scores are hired into better hospitals with better patient populations, and thus better outcomes.
to be clear, this is an opinion pertaining to the preferred behavior of eg the american government and not anything like a summary of its history in this regard. that is, the tech industry since its inception in the 60s…
probably not - 'monads' are an interface (typeclass in haskell) for which specific functions (bind, unit) need to be defined. you can do monadic programming in any language, including python. that is, functions are…
with error correction, qc is entirely distinct from analog computing. that is what makes it even remotely viable, theoretically.
yes, this a very reasonable though inexact interpretation.
viscosity has very interesting units - stress (force / area) divided by rate (1 / time). viscosity is measured (a field known as rheology) by, in some way, moving a thing through a fluid at increasingly fast…
the statistics of a collection of particles, ie fermions or bosons, depends on their symmetry under commutation. that is, the wavefunction of the collection of particles, which does have physical meaning isofar as its…
