Ok, so high enough energy photons fluctuating to other particle/antiparticles and then being able to interact with other high enough photons is an explanation I'm willing to settle for, because I thought that multiple bosons can occupy the same space, thus they were not able to interact with each other, by the "boson" definition.

It's still blows my mind that a photon could do that -- turn into a particle-antiparticle pair, the pair then quickly gets annihilated and turns back into the same photon and continues in the exact same direction and form the initial photon was travelling.

But if this process is real, does it mean that high energy photons travel slower than low energy photons?

Because low energy photons could not transform into particles that have mass, while higher energy photons could and thus spend just a liiiiiiitle bit more time as massive particles that can't travel at the speed of light.
Signal strength. Synthetic aperture might match the spatial resolution of filled aperture, but signal strength still depends on collected area. For radars you can compensate by upping the transmitted power, not so for passive listening.
Like you mention, I invent names, though not quite arbitrarily. '⊙' looks like an 'oh-dot' to me, and '⊗' is just 'cross'.

Algebra classes are full of such operators, and usually my instructors were kind enough to give them names during lectures.
One of the problems that XML aims to solve is that you can get two XML documents and combine elements of them into a third one, maintaining the right semantics, even if each of the documents use the `<foo>` tag to mean different things. It accomplishes this with namespacing.

In my experience, it's a headache to handle namespaces in XML, e.g. when trying to refer to tag names in an XPath query.

That is one example of how XML goes beyond S-expressions. I still don't think it's a particularly hard problem.
Reflections on AI for Peace

You're again misrepresenting the situation. Taking the vaccine is a 2 x 30 minute process (maybe adding 3-4 sick days with mild fever and soreness, to be fair). Losing weight after being overweight/obese is something that you need to do every second of every day for the rest of your life.

Also, people who chose not to get vaccinated chose to expose others to their disease. People who chose not to lose weight hurt no one but themselves.

The amount of burden you put on someone when you make them take the vaccine is nothing like the amount of burden you put on someone when you make them lose weight. The risks for you if I don't get vaccinated is high, the risk for you if I remain overweight/obese is 0. So, one is an acceptable compulsion, the other is not. How is this so hard to understand?

You can also view it the other way around: there is no compulsion or punishment for those who don't get vaccinated. The government can and must mandate a quarantine for everyone. However, since some people are immune, they are exempted from this quarantine.

When your operations are statistical in nature, as Approximate Computing is, so then these operations themselves are different sampling methods.

If the for loop is calculating a sum, but that value only needs to be over a threshold, there is no reason to add the whole thing, you need a proper sample size and distribution and that it what Loop Perforation is giving you in this case.
I think yes, but if you buy cpu, you look at advertised speeds and you expect get them in your machine. From what i researched, to achive advertised clock frequencies you need to increase voltage to make it more stable. Some people reported silicon degradation after increasing voltages (it worked fine for week and then problems returned).

Micropolygons. He said on twitter that most of the triangles are pixel sized or smaller.

This approach would fall flat on its face with large primitives:

- The for loop in the rasterizing code would get very large strides between lanes in a warp for the frame buffer memory accesses

- it doesn't parallelize across pixels in a primitive, so at its extreme, a single big triangle would be single threaded..

- A HW rasterizer has a lot more things it needs to do (compute barycentrics, keep around enough state to launch a fragment shader, etc)

- Quad occupancy. Conventional rasterizers go down to 2x2 quads as their unit to work with, because you need some neighbours if you are going to calculate derivatives for mishap selection when doing texturing. The hardware is designed around quads, and all lanes in a quad must come from the same polygon - leaving 3/4 of the hardware downstream from the rasterizer unused with single pixel polygons.

These are problems that conventional rasterizers have, but if you are writing a compute rasterizer you can conveniently skip lots of things.
> I know that's what you believe, it's not what I believe.

You honestly don't believe you are responsible for the knowable results of your own actions?

> a relatively minor illness

I don't see how you can honestly use this phrase to describe the worst pandemic since HIV.

> others have freely available access to effective vaccines against.

The vaccines both reduce spread and reduce the risknof serious illnessm. They do not eliminate that risk so choosing to remain unvaccinated bis choocing to increase the risk for both the vaccinated and the other unvaccinated people around you. This is risk that you ARE RESPONSIBLE for so you better make sure it is worth it.

As for the rest, please try reading what I actually wrote rather than making assumptions and arguing against partisan strawmen.

Where did I advocate for vaccine mandates?

Where did I advocate for continued lockdowns?

Where did I call border closures racist?

Where did I compare covid to smallpox?

Natural Immunity does seem superior to vacination alone, but having both is even better.

You seem to be projecting partisan talking points onto me to divert from the serious flaws in your moral philosophy and grasp of reality.

I don't see how you can conceivably believe that covid vacinations should be a choice but that the people making that choice are not responsible for the effects of that choice. Being responsible for the results is part of having choices.

But plenty of bogus COVID treatments and prophylactics - some even promoted by the (former) president himself. I'll admit that I don't fully understand the thought process that leads someone to reject a vaccine that's supported overwhelmingly by doctors and the government, and then take a horse dewormer because they saw some guy on youtube recommend it.

Maybe not vaccines, but plenty of pricing abuse by Pharmaceutical companies that make them seem like they'll do anything, even let people die, if they can earn more money. Insulin and epi-pens are two of the more well known ones.

I dont remember and I have no idea what you are alluding to

You can literally generate any public key / address hash that conforms with a blockchain and sign it and anyone can verify that you therefore control it

This has zero crypto assets involved and has no trail of assets so what are you talking about?

Its perfect right now. But what do you perceive?

In order to check for installed/missing patches for on-system software you have to have some kind of access to the underlying system.

But it does tend to result in worse outcomes when you catch covid, which you can when you go eat at a restaurant. From the vaccinated patrons who can still transmit it.

The vaccinated can contract covid and can transmit it to other vaccinated though. So this can't be the reason to ban unvaccinated, because allowing the vaccinated to restaurants will also increase medical load.

> I know that's what you believe, it's not what I believe. I believe it is ridiculous and immoral to coerce and force people into medical treatment for a relatively minor illness that others have freely available access to effective vaccines against.

A minor illness??? This is the worse illness that has affected the world since the Spanish flu. It's worse than AIDS, malaria, it even beat tuberculosis in terms of raw people killed in 2020. Calling COVID19 a "minor illness" is simply delusional at this point.

And this death toll was only kept somewhat in check because of the biggest social disruption and curbing of liberties since WW2. If social isolation weren't forced, we would have seen situations like we did in Lombardia in the early days - not 1% death rates, but 10% or more because of overwhelmed hospitals.
Bear in mind that number also includes classes declared in dependencies.

If it reduces R, other measures can help bring it down further. Further down the line, inhaled vaccines currently in development targeting the mucosal membrane are likely to enhance efficacy.

So that vaccine, uniquely, precisely caused the infection to linger instead of quickly killing the host. That's not what's happening with Covid and current vaccines, the opposite in fact is.

Major polluters are in developing countries and those with poor regulatory regimes. Even ramping up nuclear production in relatively "clean" industrialized democracies is a risking "slippage" in terms of accidents, nuclear material getting in the wrong hands, getting disposed of improperly or being abused. Nuclear material in the ground water anywhere would be a catastrophe. There is currently an iron fist around the nuclear industry to prevent such things, and that is incompatible with replacing all or most of the fossil fuel production in the world...
There's no reason why any of that couldn't be replicated with JSON, YAML or even with S-expressions.

To play the devil's advocate, one of the nice features of XML is schemas.

The reason why complex formats with validation etc. don't really work out is that they are most often used for data in transit as opposed to data at rest. The correct format for typed data at rest that conforms to a schema is a SQL database and that won't change any time soon. If you're working with data in transit, schemas, validation etc. are more trouble than they're worth.
So the original comment was that When a person is in over their head, they can possibly file for bankruptcy. When a government gets in over their head bad things happen too, up to and including wars.

For a government default is *very* similar to the US personal & commercial bankruptcy process. Its generally structured, governed by contracts, creditors take a negotiated "haircut", payments are deferred or restructured, etc.

In light of this yes, Argentina is a great example of teh real effects. This quick hit from WSJ[1] highlights argentina issuing a new 100-year bond in 2017, with massive subsciption, 3 years after a default and 3 years before the next.

Looking at the articles infographic[2] the timeline actually includes two different defaults, 2001 & 2014. There are 4 lean years of little to no issuance in 02-05, and a tiny hit in the number of issuance in 14-15. My recollection is that larger studies across time and geography actually show minimal impact to yields ~7 years after default.

So yes, governments absolutely have access to mechanisms similar to bankruptcy. And no, default is absolutely not catastrophic to future funding, debt management, or spending. And yes again, the people of places like argentina & venezuela have suffered greatly for generations but that seems to be a different proposition than "governments cant manage huge and/or unsustainable debts without drastic outcomes."

> Its a leaky vaccine and this has huge implications for producing variants that are more deadly.

The Covid vaccines reduce the duration of the infection (as well as reducing the likelihood of infection). The Marek vaccine caused it to last longer, by prolonging the life of the host. You're drawing the exact opposite conclusion to what your data shows.
Just to be clear, I wasn't suggesting the old ladies were at fault. I was suggesting that the people who would suffer the immediate negatives and/or thrive on drama and/or need to sabotage all government intervention would use that as a propagands point to stop any regulations.
As humans we have always tried to obtain foods that are safe and nutritious. Even though milk has potential allergens it contains no poisons, toxins or anti-nutrients unlike many plant foods. It is incredibly nutritious and contains sufficient amounts of most minerals and vitamins needed to sustain life (babies use it exclusively without developing any deficiencies after all).

Apart from this it has other qualities that make it useful in a post-agriculture world. Diets rich in grains and animal meat are too rich in iron and phosphorous and deficient in calcium. Milk is low in iron, and even binds to iron reducing its absorption. It also has higher calcium compared to phosphorous. It has been shown that the ratio of calcium to phosphorous matters more than absolute consumption of each nutrient, and should be slightly higher than one if we want to avoid leeching calcium from bones. Diets rich in leafy greens and fruits have a favorable ratio, while meats, legumes and cereals do not and this probably contributed to the skeletal deformities we see post agriculture. Dairy helps shift the ratio closer to optimal in the presence of phosphorous rich foods in the diet.

I think the question is more did a "handful" of snake species survive or did "many" survive?

That is, when did the diversification we see in modern snakes start?

From the paper:

> Historically, squamates were believed to have experienced minimal extinction at the K-Pg boundary ... So far, molecular divergence time analyses of snakes recover conflicting patterns ... Given this uncertainty, we attempted to improve our understanding of the timescale of crown snake diversification and the methodological factors that affect these inferences. ... Our results suggest a potential diversification of snakes near the time of the K-Pg transition.
Go has some restrictions, but all in all it's a great little pragmatic language, which solves a lot of practical problems (utf-8 strings, concurrency, garbage collection, cross compilation, single binary deployment, performance, readability) and which I can easily keep in my head as opposed to most of the other languages I've used in my career.

In that way it's like a Delphi for the modern world.
