Haven't read the paper, but it sounds like they just rediscovered the microcannonical ensemble (but for quantum mechanics). Probably works, probably hard to do anything interesting with it in the near to medium term.
Don't you think that is says something (not terribly good) about society that these very intelligent people must spend their time this way if they want to be rewarded? Why spend 80 hours a week chasing grant money when…
In theory, maybe. But phil21 is correct that credit card users have zero liability in practice. Most card issuers these days will proactively contact the customer to inquire about suspicious charges.
Zoning isn't needed just for low and high noise. You also have to consider factors like industrial safety. For example, fertilizer[1] and pesticide[2] plants must be built a certain distance away from populated areas.…

Aviation GPS typically have a greater update rate, and support WAAS (wide area augmentation system) and RAIM (receiver autonomous integrity monitoring).
Keep in mind that the Mormon church funds about half of the homeless program in Salt Lake City. They also donate free food to anyone in need. I would argue that the outcomes (for both homeless and non-homeless…
> Can you show that [generating a number of records to skip instead of a yes/no for each record] will still maintain a uniform probability distribution? That should work if you pull the skip count from the appropriate…
Prior to their communist revolutions, both the USSR and PRC were actually practicing something not very different from feudalism. In fact, one of the reforms of the last Tsar was to unbind (legally, if not in practice)…
Perhaps it tells you something about how strongly the employee feels about the company's work that he is willing to say something like this in public. For such a big problem, firing the employee won't make it go away.
Well, except that the same thing has been found in other studies as well. The results of this study are completely unsurprising to anyone who has read any other study of helmet laws in his/her life. At some point you…
> In fact, you can always observe which slit the particle passes through, so measurement has no effect on the wave interference pattern. The first half of that sentence is true, while the second half is not (unless I am…
Yup, and the CPU in that one is slower than the CPU in a (base-model) Mid-2011 Mini. What a deal!
Part of the problem with that technique is that the waves are effectively propagating in a waveguide (between the surface of the earth and the ionosphere). So the characteristics of the waveguide (such as the…
