Is it fair to say they’re “doing nothing to stop it”? They have indeed been shutting banning users for this, according to themselves millions of them.

Not saying it’s enough, but it’s hardly nothing.

It does, thanks for sharing. Wishing her good health!

Fascinating setup. Does she have sex with women outside your marriage, if I you don’t mind me asking?

One can indeed argue that Hamas started this massacre with the October 12 attack. But Israel is actively imperialist, willfully genociding Palestinians and annexing territory from their neighbours.

That’s nothing like Ukraine at all. And not the behavior of a victim.

Dredd (2012). Excellent film, stellar performances from Karl Urban and Lena Headey. Alex Garland writing goodness before he started directing.

On the topic of Alex Garland, I’ve also researched Civil War (2024) three times. I love how both movies are so tight, not a scene or moment wasted.

For reference, I don’t have any level of ADHD!

I recommend reading Marcus Aurelius, he reflects on a lot of similar things I think. Nas it’s inherently interesting to read an ancient Roman emperor deal with the same doubts as a regular modern person.

Concretely, consider working around 40 hours instead, and spend some of the extra time meditating to tune out external expectations, while tuning in to your own short and long term goals.

Playing Assassin’s Creed Valhalla via Steam Link on my TV, good fun. I’ve been learning Icelandic over the last few years, and was surprised that the Norse background NPC’s actually speak it! Very cool to be able to understand the background conversations, quite immersive too.

(As far as we know Icelandic is essentially identical to old Norse, spoken across Scandinavia a thousand years ago.)

Used to go to school with one of these guys, can’t believe this shit

Guerilla marketing?

Been moving country/city a few times. Tried to make sure to always do stuff in my free time where there would be girls around. Ended up on quite a few dates!

Dating is so much fun. I love meeting strangers in this weird pseudosexual tension when you don’t know eachother and you don’t know what’s gonna happen.

Even bad dates were fun experiences in terms of meeting interesting people. And if you realize that being happy alone is better than being in a bad relationship, a failed date is no problem.

I am! Tell me who it is, and I’ll kick their butts.

QC has well-founded expected applications within chemistry, factorisation and optimization. Anything else is hyperbole at this point.

No. But I know true love, so I’d say you’re wrong.

No serious quantum computer scientist or industry person would claim QC “solves everything”. Who is “they”?

Or you could embrace the vision, play on Hardcore with no map marker or compass, accept that travelling through war-torn lands is dangerous, feel the rush of galloping through the woods knowing a Cuman ambush could set you back 30 minutes, accepting that quests can fail, accepting that people will react to you stinking like blood and horse.

Actually turns out the blue zone thing is pretty dubious.

Don’t worry, linear algebra is also useful for other, less famous stuff.

Is the Leviathan waking a good thing or a bad thing? It’s a biblical thing right? They seem to be critical of the secret world government’s strategy to freeze it to death with an artificial snow storm.

Interesting framing. But without measurements there isn’t really a need for different interpretations, is there? If that’s what you mean by “in the middle of an experiment”.

I will happily agree that before measurement, it’s very useful to think of the system as existing in many states at the same time.

I don’t know, Many Worlds always led to more confusion than Copenhagen for me. But I suppose that’s a matter of taste since they’re equivalent.

As per the relationship between measurement and entanglement, from an empiricist viewpoint all quantum mechanical terms are related to measurement. If entanglement didn’t affect the outcome of measurements, it wouldn’t exist.

Indeed, you can disentangle an entangled system, which of course will change the outcome of measurements - that’s how you know it’s been disentangled.
