  They have some chance if they wrote code to find a counterexample to some obscure math conjecture

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are people using the "þ" character?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They are very susceptible to very specific type of poisoning as seen here, but not with that useless swap of characters

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Signal’s post-quantum makeover is an amazing engineering achievement⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe. I don’t know at which point all that extra processing stops being worth it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Signal’s post-quantum makeover is an amazing engineering achievement⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They also want nuclear fusion reactors and there is none in the horizon after 50 years of research and development (even though many want to sell the idea that there are).

  You can start preparing for post hypercomputation cryptography too if you believe your argument.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Signal’s post-quantum makeover is an amazing engineering achievement⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not going to happen this century, probably never

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Signal’s post-quantum makeover is an amazing engineering achievement⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Like allowing a federated system instead of a central one, not depending in external libraries and services, and so on. I bet there are many things that would actually improve the security instead of this that is more of a marketing point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Signal’s post-quantum makeover is an amazing engineering achievement⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol, it shows the hype quantum computing has sold and how detached the public thought is about it from reality.

  I’m friends with two quantum computing researchers and they are pretty sure quantum computing will never be a practical application because of how the noise and errors scale with the system size.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Signal’s post-quantum makeover is an amazing engineering achievement⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Having in mind we are not even close to breaking classical cryptography with quantum computing I doubt this was their best investment of time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Double harvest: Vertical solar panels and crops thrive side by side⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve also seen people install reflective surfaces/paint right below them to improve efficiency, but I don’t know if that is useful now that modules are so cheap

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uh oh lol⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Redshift comes from relative velocity (and other effects), not acceleration. Andromeda’s light is blueshifted as it’s moving towards us, but it’s not accelerating.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wrong Groomers⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There are many: the dudes from Bunny Drop and Honey and Clover, which are the adoptive fathers of their love interest; the chiropractor from Ranma and the teacher from DDDD. Just some infamous ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bluesky now platform of choice for science community⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol, it shows you don’t know how things really work. New bullshit cites old bullshit, it’s all a game of pretending. You can check the statistics of fraudulent papers and that is just takes into account the most obvious ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bluesky now platform of choice for science community⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s exactly the point. If you want to be a researcher right now you have to play their game. You have to publish papers even if you don’t have anything. So people publish bullshit, use chatGPT, force their name on papers they haven’t contributed and so on.

  Meanwhile the science journals get paid by everyone and pay no one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bluesky now platform of choice for science community⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It certainly doesn’t work, that’s why there exists stuff like arXiv and SciHub

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨here there be lions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Same, I could just have to receive my wife with a glass of whiskey and a pussy munching

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨On Black Holes...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What do you mean? We understand them well enough that we can predict the gravitational waves of a black hole merger.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hair color is a spectrum⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Search “crowd Japan”. No a single of those hair colors.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does farting make you lighter or heavier ?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless you are in a vacuum chamber, then it makes you lighter. Also you would be dead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pride rainbows taken off police cars after court ruling⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol, you are a reactionary piece of shit.

  Police go to pride because the neoliberal elite has deemed it profitable. A couple of decades ago they called them terrorist, the same way you do with environment and pro palestine activists.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pride rainbows taken off police cars after court ruling⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You are delusional if you think police is anything more than a tool of the status quo to maintain their power and do their dirty work. It doesn’t matter the country. Just a few recent examples: 1 2 3

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pride rainbows taken off police cars after court ruling⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Left leaning police is an oxymoron

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨the universe about to have a little minty b⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That happened in Permutation City. The simulation could stop intermittently or go extremely slow and no one inside could notice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UwU brat mathematician behavior⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In the case of dx as an infinitesimal it makes sense. You are making a sum of all the values of the function in the integral range and multiplying with a constant dx.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UwU brat mathematician behavior⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you were using nonstandard analysis with dx an infinitesimal you could put it outside I guess. Maybe with differential forms too?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wikipedia Pauses AI-Generated Summaries After Editor Backlash⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The vocabulary is part of the knowledge. The concept goes with the word, that’s how human brains understand stuff mostly.

  You can click on the terms you don’t know to learn about them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Los Angeles Police Department shot an Australian reporter with a rubber bullet while she was live on TV. Zero provocation.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because most of them have a core of metal or other high density material and a softer exterior. It’s like wrapping a brick in a couple of layers of bubble wrap and hitting someone if the face with it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ICE thugs pounced on a man right there in the courthouse, mere minutes after his immigration case was dismissed⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  People should try that, for science. In Minecraft.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Daily Wire is now trying to pass off AI slop as actual footage from Palestine.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Any journalist trying to pass a fake video as news should be called to a civil or criminal court, same as medical malpractices

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m European. I don’t eat soft bread. I think none of you have a sharp knife.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I never understood why people use serrated knives for bread, it gets crumbs everywhere. I use a sharp chef knife instead and it’s much cleaner. I use it for 95% of stuff, there’s no much need for any other.
