@ericweinstein Hi! Can I join the meeting? I’m close to Palermo.
Huge fan, but I’m an engineer, not a physicist. 🥲

Are you pold enough to remember screensavers? If so... were you part of the SETI gang?

the fast16 malware was almost certainly targeting spherical implosion simulations.

Ponen dos placas super cerca, por magia, aka "quantum *(tunneling/vacum/etc)" aparece un electrón, lo van capturando y listo, como si fuese un panel solar. Muy bueno para ser real, esperemos que si.

[Deep Tech Week @deeptechweek]

The world's first functioning prototype of a Zero-Point Energy extraction chip was announced today

It was presented 6 weeks ago to a select audience at NYC @deeptechweek

For the first time ever, you can now see @DrSonnyWhite explain the physics and economics behind ZPE chips

My reply to someone considering starting a video game company:

The distribution of possible rewards for starting a video game company are generally not very good today. The market is well served, and gaining a foothold requires strong execution on both business and product issues, along with a substantial amount of luck. Plan to burn through seven figures with a not-great chance of making it back.

If you do go for it, some bits of advice:

Identify your customers clearly before you start. Not just a broad community, but specific people, and imagine them as you make decisions.

Initially, build the smallest, most concise game you can imagine anyone paying for. It will still take much longer than you expect.

Once something exists, hill-climb the value. Hopefully you will have some elements that clearly bring joy to people, which you can magnify. There will inevitably be tons of things that people find confusing, frustrating, or just boring that you will need to fix.

Terence Tao - "AI tools are like taking a helicopter to drop you off at the site. You miss all the benefits of the journey itself. You just get right to the destination, which actually was only just a part of the value of solving these problems."

Judit Polgar - "I always felt that intuition is very important in chess, but I get my intuition through my experience. And many times I think that this is the biggest danger for youth, that they don't have the experience because they don't spend enough time doing."

Elites from two different fields voice the same opinion.

In 2001, Hugh Jackman delivered the most realistic computer hacking scene in film history. To this day, it is used for training at the Cybercrime Division of the FBI.

Someone wrote a 680 page interactive book on cs algorithms

and every single concept has a live visualizer you can pause, rewind & mess with

no static diagrams...no passive reading...you actually see the algorithm think

embedded python, code playback, 100+ solved problems, complexity analysis all in one app

The earliest DOS source code was found on printer paper in Tim Paterson's garage so we've open sourced it on 86-DOS 1.00’s 45th anniversary! This is next-level software archaeology for study, preservation, and plain ol’ curiosity. Go dig in and learn how it was recovered! #DOS #RetroComputing
