Submitted since this solves my, and thus perhaps others needs to control their monitors.

GUI and CLI application to get/set various properties of your attached monitors. For windows. Works over the Display Data Channel (eg over HDMI).

In my case, I couldn't (from Windows display settings) lower the display brightness of my external monitor, leading to eye strain when the room is not well lit enough. This enables my to reduce the display brightness with ease.

There is an alternative, which can only change brightness but does so with a minimalistic gui: https://github.com/emoacht/Monitorian (have not tried it).

If not for ergonomics, you can use it to visually be notified when eg a script is finished, by toggling brightness back and forth.

An alternative to _that_ is to use the snoretoast application with something like this:

alias wakeme='date && /cygdrive/c/Dropbox/tools/notifications-w10/snoretoast/snoretoast.exe -t "hello" -m "wake up goddamit" -p "C:\Dropbox\tools\notifications-w10\mindblown.png" -s "ms-winsoundevent:Notification.Reminder"'

thus, you can "longscript.sh ; wakeme". From https://github.com/KDE/snoretoast

Stop adding qualifiers. Armed citizens, be they ineffective & disorganized, were enough to dissuade heavy handed gov't tactics for a long time - lest effective & organized arise.
It’s unwinnable. You go in and take sides, it’s interference, imperialism (you’re doing it for the oil). You stay out and let them work it out then it’s craven indifference.

I mean Iran, Russia and Saudi are all over there. They don’t need another entity adding their two cents.

It’s like AOC, let’s get out of Syria. We leave Syria —how can you leave Syria they’ve been our allies, etc.

In that part, or any part of the world people only become you allies in war when there’s something in it for them. They’re not doing so as a favor. Just like us. When we went into WWII it wasn’t a favor. We knew that not going in would be worse for us.
> the wave is something separate from the object but is related to it.

This is a common idea in Bohmian epistemology, but, speaking as a professional physicist, I don't think most physicists would hold this position. The wave is the object, the object is the wave. "Particle/wave duality" or whatever is just bad language for "a quantum mechanical thing"

I think the point of saying it "exists at two places at once" is that if the molecule exhibited classical behavior then it either would have gone through slit 1 or slit 2, and you'd see two peaks of probability. Instead, you see an interference experiment, so the molecule went... well, here's where language difficulty comes in.

It 'went' through both slits 1 and 2?

'It' went through both slits 1 and 2?

Its wavefunction went through both slit 1 and slit 2?

Its wavefunction went through both slit 1 and slit 2 without becoming entangled with anything else?

However, whatever it did, quantum mechanics is clear about one thing: [something] [moved] THROUGH the screen! That is, because probability current [1] is conserved as a direct result of the Schrödinger equation, it definitely did not happen that the molecule vanished on one side in a puff of smoke and WHAM appeared on the other side.

So, the molecule "went through the screen", if what you mean is "at the beginning almost all of the probability was on one side of the screen and smoothly evolved to be mostly on the other". Or, rather, at the beginning you measured the position to be definitively on one side of the screen and it smoothly evolved so that later it hit the target, so that its probability was non-negligible on the other side of the screen.

Or, strictly speaking, it went forward through the screen one more time than it backtracked... You're right that the molecule didn't have to take some classically-expected "beautiful" trajectory (straight line, parabola, whatever). In fact it did all sorts of crazy things, coherently. Saying that it was coherent is a shortcut for saying that all those crazy ways' probability amplitudes sum (so that they might interfere), rather than their probabilities directly.

"occupy two places at once" is just bad language for what things do quantum mechanically. For example, "occupy" is laden with classical expectations---if a solid metal ball occupies a space, air does not. But that's not how quantum mechanics works. You can have a weird quantum mechanical state like

"ball at x and air at y"+"ball at y and air at x".

In neither addend of the sum are ball and air at the same place (just as you'd expect classically). But if you look at the sum and decide only to look at the description of the ball and forget about the air you'd decide that the ball "occupies two places at once".

Of course rather than "air" you can put "nothing" or "vacuum" or whatever. But it still isn't the case that the ball is taking up twice its volume---it's taking up its full volume, but in two alternative ways? Again, language isn't great here.

The problem you are having (I think) is this damned phraseology we have grown accustomed to "in two places at once". That's not the proper way to think about it. Anything and everything can be in a superposition of location and state where the location or state is not determined until forced to by some measurement/interaction. The universe if you will is not determined. It's in a superposition of states and positions to be later determined when acted upon.

Is it? Humans are tribalistic. Family, town, sports team, etc. The further out you go, the less typical people associate "them" as "us." I'm not sure that it is non-westerner's race nor skin color as much as distance, culture, and lack of media exposure. Doesn't make it right, but I'm not sure it is racist.
> They can cram 30minutes of an entire 3d shooter into 64kb because they understand and know so much more about their data.

Erm, not really. Most of the time it's because they spend like 3 minutes of loading time generating textures and all in memory before displaying anything on screen. And they rely on the giganormous graphic libraries of Windows (for Windows demos) + the huge driver stack that would never fit in 64kb in the first place.

I am much more impressed by demos built to run on "the hardware" back in C64 and Amiga days.
This is a way too oversimplified and low-resolution claim to be useful in such a complex debate as human diet.

No, but would spending the money to do that enable the building owner to rent space at a higher rate than they would otherwise? In other words, would there be any return on that investment? Probably not. If it's someplace like Google or Apple, where the company owns the building they're occupying, they might consider doing it because it would be nice. If it's an owner who's renting out the building to tenants, they aren't going to spend any money they don't have to.

> It seems like encoding ‘all of math so far’ in some theorem prover seems like an ideal open source project... Is there such an effort now?

Yes. Metamath's set.mm is expressly such a project, and I recently created a Gource visualization of set.mm's progress over time. For the first few years it was basically one person, but that increased over time and there have now been 48 different contributors.

Please see my other comment in this thread, especially the part about "occupying space"---the issue is exactly the same with mass.
Just clever use of tiles, proper encoding of assets, and making you code lean.

Back in the '00s, I made a j2me mobile realtime multiplayer online strategy game, which included animations, music and sfx. It was 60kb, because I wanted to target as many devices as possible.

Later it grew till about 200kb

Lots of space and performance optimizations.
Googling "coral kt extinction" gave me this BBC article- https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-45133197

So it looks like either corals evolved after the KT extinction event or they survived in very small amounts (maybe a few species) before re-exploding in diversity after the extinction event. This can be seen in global warming today- some corals take to the hotter water better than other corals, and even some regions that have had hotter water historically have corals that aren't really affected, while the Great Barrier Reef and similar are undergoing a mass dying.

EDIT: Also, deep water corals do exist, so it's possible they survived from there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep-water_coral
This is where it gets a little “grey area.” If my freedom to have a gun impacts many, many other freedoms of the people around me, is society more free or less?

If my freedom to text and drive impacts the right to life and freedom of those around me, it’s imperative to restrict that one freedom so the freedom of the society remains.
> huge data wastage when certain languages are encoded

Is there a language that consistently uses codepoints with more than 2 bytes?

It bothers me a bit that UTF-8 is not an infinitely extendable encoding. But that also isn't an important objection, because it is finite, but huge.
My Bolt has a camera rear-view mirror that can be turned on or left off in favor of the traditional mirror. We never use it. Turning the mirror into a screen means you have to focus on the screen rather than the distance when using it; that makes it slower and more uncomfortable to switch between looking forward and back. At least for geezers with older eyes like mine...

There is also another side to that question. If you were a pizza maker and you loved what you did, would you sell your pizza to someone who wishes you and your loved ones die? Maybe that would make you uncomfortable.

These situations are usually framed on how it bothers us, as outsiders to these companies. We tend to put outselves only in the shoes of the pizza consumers, neither the evil entity, nor the pizza maker. But these companies have workers, who put their labor into some product, only then to see that product in the hands of entities that go directly against their core values and existence. I find very understandable that they are mad. Shouldn't we also question these problems from this perspective?

When there are many employees uncomfortable with things like this, maybe it's not a necessity, but I still think it's very nice for outsiders to support them.

However that was in the case where the product is something innocuous, like pizza. Because you know, it might also be case that the product is actually enabling or helping evil to be evil. Such as "being part of the critical toolkit to conduct invasive surveillance". So getting mad could be even more substantiated in those cases.
> but it does at least employ actual security and privacy in many places.

It doesn't. It has total control over what you can use which is the least privacy and security friendly option you can have. That control means they can give up any privacy and security promises under a bit of government pressure, like Apple already did plenty of times. It's the same problem as with end-to-end encryption in vendor controlled binaries, they promise you it's there, but they can and will silently compromise it if pressured or decide to do so.

> Finally, their walled garden - although not perfect - is far safer than any other one out there.

Walled gardens are not inherently safer than anything out there.
Thank you for you response.

I should have LBYL instead of EAFP
I am very much concerned about focal accommodation. This becomes particularly important when driving at higher speeds. The sheer fact that my eyes do not need to adjust focus when looking into rear view mirrors (in comparison to cameras/screens) saves me critical milliseconds when overtaking a car or before making a turn.

Of course, this becomes irrelevant when we are talking about parking.
I'm not against all those cameras, nor am I rejecting evolution. I just think that traditional mirrors are doing the job well enough for this to be a question now.
YMMV, but I've used both quite a bit and I find the shortcut in the article much more convenient than Ctrl-R, at least if I'm actually sure of the first characters of the command. They're not exclusive, anyway. :)

The original paper, fortunately linked in the article, is quite readable:

I was expecting it to discuss the largest species previously shown to demonstrate an interference pattern, but unfortunately there was none.

Other points of note:

Regarding the choice of molecule, and specifically fluorination:

> An intense neutral beam of intact molecules is a prerequisite for our experiments, but soft neutral volatilization and post-ionization of complex molecules is an outstanding technical challenge. While matrix-assisted laser desorption and electrospray ionization are useful tools for molecular analysis, the charged beams they pro- duce are incompatible with the stringent dephasing requirements of interferometry. Continuous effusive thermal beams, on the other hand, suffer from thermal fragmentation for masses beyond a few kilodaltons. This can be overcome via fluoroalkyl-functionalization of the molecules, which adds mass, reduces the polarizability-to- mass ratio and increases volatility

The group sees another factor of 10 increase in the ability to measure interference:

> With advances in beam sources for biomolecules and metal clusters26,27, techniques to cool the particles below 80K (refs.28,29), and refined grating26 and imaging technologies30, our experiment is scalable and will push matter-wave interference and macroscopicity tests by another order of magnitude24

The Coriolis effect was corrected at least in part mechanically rather than purely computationally:

> Compensation of the Coriolis effect is critical to obtaining high-visibility interference fringes in LUMI. By tilting the gratings, we introduce a gravitational deflection that opposes the Coriolis shift ...
For those who haven't heard, Astropad allows illustrators, artists and animators to turn their existing iPad into a professional graphics tablet for macOS.

Choosing Rust to meet the cross-platform requirements for Astropad is a great choice and a interesting one. I have read the previous article [0] on how Astropad was unfortunately Sherlocked by Apple [1] in the Catalina + iPadOS Sidecar feature and given that Astropad works only on macOS, it makes sense to become cross-platform to bring Astropad onto platforms like Windows or Linux since Apple only cares about its walled-garden. So I'm very happy to see Astropad take this move into trying Rust.

That's the one. I'd forgotten the Crown hadn't bothered either. The judge was trying to encourage an exploration of freedom of expression. Had the defendant bothered, he would likely have had very reasonable chance of acquittal or trivial fine in place of the £800. That the Youtube and "private joke for his girlfriend" aspects of his defence were shown up as lies probably didn't help his case. :)

The next paragraph is relevant to the context, as he makes clear that in the absence of those explorations, the conviction rests solely on the narrow fact of whether the law was breached or not. i.e. without any mitigation taken into account:

“This trial, unusual though some aspects have been, was therefore concerned, ultimately, only with the narrow fact-based question of whether the Crown has proved beyond reasonable doubt that your using a public communications network on one day to post the video onto your video channel, constituted an offence contrary to section 127(1)(a) of the Communications Act 2003. I found it proved on the evidence that it was. My finding establishes only your guilt of this offence. It establishes nothing else and sets no precedent.
Given that any ClojureScript app includes the Clojure core APIs, you have a constant size tacked on to any app as compared to raw JS. Of course, this is amortized as the app grows more complex.
