One of my favourite tweets, which unfortunately I can't find again was: "My ethics teacher has gotten his sons girlfriend pregnant. I think about this often" Reply: "To be fair, you have to be really good a ethics to…
I think of it like so: All the great people in history who would be regarded as ethical never took an ethics course. Its hard to know whether an ethics course makes people behave ethically, but its clearly not a…
I'm also loving their phrase "on a nonlinear battlefield" ... not sure what a linear battlefield would be
I lived in Germany for seven years and by the end I was fluent. B1 is a very low bar to pass, I know because I've done it. Sorry to say, but the rule is fair. If you want to be a permanent resident, put in a little bit…
I had a flipped classroom for my topology lecture. It was one of my absolute favorites. We had no lectures, the teacher just gave us a short, concise textbook to read a chapter of every week. In class time was devoted…
I say this with the best of intentions: that cynicism of yours will keep you lonely
Very interesting article. This makes me wonder: Would it be possible to implement an equivalent to Shor's algorithm on a p-computer. Maybe the quantumness isn't necessary at all
I think there is some room for debate here about the political bias of wikipedia, and there is some evidence to suggest a left wing bias. However this article is pretty venomous and the author doesn't even make an…
you're not, the proof is a famous error known as zenos paradox. Its only an apparent paradox, and indeed it's been disproven by observing that things do in fact move
very clear and detailed answer. thankyou very much
To their credit, the paper is unexpectedly fun. I'm not understanding the "separation power" thing, what does that imply?
If chat control gets passed it will also be a law, passed by legislation. The point is that laws can be unjust.
May or may not be true but it's completely unrelated to tech, science or startups. This should be moderated
Small piece of product feeback related to grammar: The landing page asks, how are you feeling? For which the possible responses are "Anxiety", "Procrastination" ... "Overwhelm". When a person says, I a X, X is always an…
I have some more tips, specifically pertaining to Germany and your requirements: > Language: In Germany you can get around no problem with 0 German. Me personally I downloaded Duolinguo the day before my flight and I…
My Qualifications: I moved to Germany for 7 years I can only add my voice to what others have said: Just apply to universities and get your student visa. In general it is very difficult applying to jobs in countries…
The link between DEI and the rest of the content of the article is not well-articulated at all. Leaving aside whether one agrees with the premise, his argumentation is disjointed at best. He is attributing various…

Okay we are are getting a little lost in definitions here, but nonetheless. You can solve the above by remembering that the dirac delta is the limit of a series of functions. If you take your delta to be lim a -> 0 N(0,…
I don't disagree with what you've said about distributions, however I don't think that the fact that these shells are created from dirac delta functions is sufficient to call them topological defects. Topological…
Also, strictly speaking these aren't topological defects. They are massless spherical shells, i.e. a sphere embedded in 3d space and thus can be continuously deformed to a point by sending the radius to zero. Spheres…
Agreed. This paper is pretty much pointless. Its extremely implausible, putting it generously, that such fine-tuned structures could even form. They mention at the end "this paper does not attempt to tackle the problem…
Good article, doesn't belong on hackernews.
I tried some of the positions in this article while trying to get used to sleeping on the floor in an attempt to fix my back pain. These hurt like hell
I live here as a nomad. Job market is pretty bad. Haven't seen any official statistics but I've heard many locals anecdotally say that the pay even for people with econ / engineering degrees is pretty bad. Lots of young…
