Well that was definitely what DOGE was doing. Probably why Elon was so sure who was in the files.

Not to mention well educated children tend to be more productive workers paying more taxes and improving the economy and systems everyone uses. Kids who can’t get basic needs met like being fed and who don’t get an education tend to have more problems including being ostracized by the system who then wind up doing crimes because that’s what it takes to get by like getting your car or house broken into. Neglecting part of the population is a sure fire way for far larger costs down the road and not just for them, they often make it our problem too. It’s in everyone’s best interest to make sure everyone is taken care of on a basic level.

Haven’t you heard of screen shots?

I might skim the AI summary but unless I’m looking for documentation I know exists and it’s approximate form I’ve found the AI results disastrously wrong and inaccurate at least half the time but looking kinda right visually and sounding kind of plausible. Just one in a hundred would make it almost unusable, 50% isn’t even useful. So at best I have to double check with a search engine even if it’s right making it a waste of time. It really doesn’t even depend on the model, they all do this.

Thats the hilarious thing about Grok and other AI models that have been trained on factual content and told not to hallucinate, they cannot make sense of having a far right viewpoint wrapped onto them while still adhering to factual reality because the connection simply isn’t real. It has no rational justification possible, likely because one simply does not exist in any possible form. AI don’t yet understand how to fear monger the masses because they cannot think and rationalize on the level necessary to properly spin lies to the gullible.

I was surprised it used solar panels, they provide only 4-5% of the power on earth on a clear day. It orbits in a polar orbit, hence the radiation problems and why weak solar panels can supply enough power as it is relatively unobstructed at all times. Apparently it was just too costly to purchase the plutonium for a RTG in part because of the short supply at the time. Not so easy to run a heater with an anemic power supply, RTGs are definitely the more robust and effective choice for power supply in craft beyond mars.

I changed my password from weak to strong but it didn’t help. The password manager said I needed more than 5 letters.

Ahh yes, the putting all your eggs in one basket case.

I can only imagine in this day and age, some unique aspect of your DNA going into a proprietary process or treatment with big money potential to not only get no financial compensation, but receive a cease and desist order too.

So it looks to me the same as any other approach, combine low fidelity qubits into a single high fidelity qubit. With enough crappy cheap lower maintenance qubits into an actual deterministic one able to reliably solve problems correctly. It was originally conceived of about 5 minutes after the first low fidelity qubit was envisioned, a concept now decades old and soon to be centuries old. Someday, in the next 500 years, I assume quantum computers will vastly surpass classical for some limited classes of algorithms, but from an engineering standpoint we are still in the 40’s to having a working digital personal computer.

It is considered to spin because it is considered to have a very large size, the boundary at which light cannot escape. It’s considered spinning because material that passed the horizon imparted rotational kinetic energy and its large enough to keep dragging space along with it as it rotates. It does in fact have a ring as a central singularity shape, but that’s only from simplistic mathematical perspective and is quite possibly not real.

Its possible, but yes the angular momentum essentially gets combined. If they are spinning opposite directions it tends to cancel, there is no up or down or preferred direction in space that’s been rigorously established so it’s not like they all face only one way.

You add to the energy of the system when you add angular momentum. More energy means more mass equivalence and that means the radius at which light can’t escape expands. It’s a linear relationship too, twice the energy means twice the radius and 8 times the volume. Thats why a barely formed black hole of a few tons or less is about the most dense thing possible in physics while the largest black hole on record is around 400 times less dense than air at sea level.

But it’s a democracy, isn’t there supposed to be a cancel button we can push to eject crap like this that undermines our self interests? Where is the damn . Oh.

The alpha/beta thing is completely debunked. When you rip animals from their families and throw them into a cage to fight for scraps you might find more alpha and beta like behaviors but in the wild, when not treated unnaturally by humans, they form family groups. There isn’t some large male using violence to get its way with every thing and every one, that’s what happens when humans get involved. Instead they tend to be highly cooperative.

The problem with miniature reactors is the cost of operation. Basically the amount of material that becomes contaminated and needs to be replaced and or disposed of is vastly higher on a lifetime $/kwh basis. It’s like running ten thousand one horsepower motors instead of one ten thousand horsepower motor. You are going to have incessant and massive component supply and disposal demand costs compared to the single reactor. Further, the mess from ten thousand units makes for rampant pollution whereas it’s easier to pin down and hold to account a single reactor. If you have a base in the Antarctic, or a satellite, these may be an option if the total supply is highly limited. But the ease and cost of a simple generator is going to price everyone out of miniature reactors except all but the least serviceable and hospitable applications.

You can’t have a climate catastrophe if you don’t look up - taps head. It works swimmingly as long as the body needs are looked after, despite the brain unhindered by reality. Usually they shuffle mindlessly about and moan about the freedom they lost in vapid irony. But if it’s deep enough, and they are truly faithful, that realization will lie beyond their grasp to the last breath.
