- Comment on Artificial Neurons Communicate Directly With Living Cells 1 week ago:
It’s just a tool. Increased utility can always be misused, but that is a poor reason to delay advancement. Yes, we should be aware of potential abuses of better technology. But we should use this awareness as a tailwind to propel us to the greatest number of beneficial discoveries that we can.

Oh honey… we don’t need artificial neurons for that.

Hey, if we play this right, we can get a constant named after us!
- Comment on TIL science has its own swifties 3 weeks ago:
Most aspects of our daily lives rely on Taylor series, polynomial expansion, and approximation theory in general. Everything built or planned using computer modeling software, down to the trig functions on your calculator… they all use polynomial approximations to allow a discrete mathematical machine to get us to within a certain error percentage of a continuous function in a timely manner.

Shit! You’re right! Guys… I uhh, I gotta go stop a satellite launch.

Probably my favorite approximation of pi. With four symbols, you have like 18 digits.

- Comment on Spotify Add Lossless Audio(24-bit / 44.1 kHz FLAC) for Premium Subscribers 1 month ago:
You do you, friend. I’m just sharing my experience, not trying prove anything.
- Comment on Spotify Add Lossless Audio(24-bit / 44.1 kHz FLAC) for Premium Subscribers 1 month ago:
Over bluetooth through a car stereo, no you won’t hear a difference. But over a cable through a decent pair of headphones, there is a difference. Even more with a good DAC, amp, and speakers.
The problem with audio quality is that one bad step in the chain from bits to eardrums will nerf the sound quality. So, if you upgrade one step you have to upgrade all of the other steps too before you will reap any benefits.
As a musician and audio engineer, I would love to say that you should experience a richer music listening experience. On the other hand… fucking rent.

This article suggests that cosmic radiation triggers lightning strikes… Earth is basically a giant geiger counter.
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 1 month ago:
The idea is that the tiny black holes are planck scale and they evaporate before they get anywhere near each other. Picture this:
It takes 10^20 Planck lengths to equal the diameter of a proton. It takes 10^20 protons to equal the diameter of the earth. And it takes 10^20 earths to equal the diameter of the observable universe.
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 1 month ago:
It’s a logarithmic scale based on Kelvin, but with constants shoved in there so 0 and 100 would agree with Celsius.
- Comment on Chirp in Fahrenheit 1 month ago:
There is a theoretical max temperature, the Planck Temperature ≈ 1.416 x 10^42 K. It’s the temperature at which the wavelength of emitted light is the Planck length.
Basically, a system at planck temperature probably would consist of many tiny black holes, and adding energy to said system would create a larger black hole, thereby lowering the temperature.

Also, anything that generates enough heat in the presence of bread is, in fact, a toaster.

It’s not the amount of energy converted that killed him, it was the abrupt change in the rate of conversion experienced at the media boundaries.

- Comment on China is quietly upstaging America with its open models 2 months ago:
The funny thing about deepseek is that nvidia refused to export ptx code (or was prohibited by law, I’m not sure which) to china. So, china reverse engineered the hardware, and wrote a more efficient version of ptx for the deepseek model.
PTX is basically nvidia’s assembly language, btw.

“Scientific group” is not the applicable term. “natural group” or “monophyletic group” or “clade”, would be more… scientific

- Comment on number box o number box 2 months ago:
To approach from another angle…
Tensors are generalizations of scalars (that have no indices), vectors (that have exactly one index), and matrices (that have exactly two indices) to an arbitrary number of indices.
