wtf claude substituted a random public key when it was copying some markdown over to html... at least it caught its own mistake, I guess?

An interesting defense of "shut up and calculate", that the rigor and specificity of math has guided us better than philosophical interpretations. Not sure if I agree completely but it's a good argument. piped.video/watch?v=72QLJNFn…

Steve Gibson on coding 10 years ago is pretty interesting to listen to today: piped.video/watch?v=TuhOiQSZ…

This is a good video that explains how lots of ideas in physics are just things repeated by people who don't understand what's going on who have heard those ideas from other people who don't understand what's going on. I'm definitely guilty of this! piped.video/watch?v=XcY3ZtgY…

For example; basically consider each harmonic as its own thing to be "mixed" with the rest of your track rather than fucking around with an EQ on the whole bass.

Is there any footage of the "drones" that clearly shows something that isn't plausibly an airplane/helicopter? A good fraction of the clips featured on American news channels are clearly airliners lol.

I just realized I've been using corkscrews wrong my entire life... there's a second level you can push against to get the cork all the way out without having to pull it. How did I never learn this?

If you ever get depressed about the state of the world, watch this: piped.video/watch?v=oJh5hcHC…
This is the best of humanity on display. We have a student pilot who pushed through fear to learn how to fly, a controller who knows what to say to keep her aviating, and an instructor who knows what she needs to hear to land safely.
It's passion, care, expertise. That's what humans can be, despite what you may be lead to think.

Starlink satellites came over the horizon while I was taking pictures of the comet, it was epic. I wish I had the skills to capture them both properly in a composite image!

This StackExchange answer confidently asserts a theorem that AFAIK isn't known or at least isn't commonly taught... how is the proof supposed to work? Does anyone have a reference? cstheory.stackexchange.com/a…

I recently learned that displaying the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is sometimes seen as a right-wing dogwhistle. I’m about as libertarian-left as it gets and I won’t allow this historic document supporting human freedom to be seen that way, so I hung it on my wall.

One of the best podcasts I've heard in a while, @CosmicSkeptic is so good at steel-manning arguments that it's easy to lose sight of what his actual position is, a sign of a great thinker. piped.video/watch?v=RlJ6uNk1…

Can someone explain what's supposed to be going on here? When you have a state whose density matrix is unitary you can somehow execute that unitary as an operation??? (From the NP ⊆ BQP preprint: eprint.iacr.org/2024/646.pdf)

Hey @SubaruCanada I really appreciate the latest update, it makes everything a lot more usable, but in the next one could you make it look better? Vertically center the air/recirc icons, darken the background image of the buttons and remove or darken the borders. I’ll fix it for free for you if you give me access to the source code.

I’ve googled “1 SGD to CAD” at least 5 times in the past year and each time it told me “1.00.” What are the odds of that? I will google it again at 12PM Singapore time tomorrow if any currency traders want to take advantage of this pattern.
