plus i love writing code

@ericweinstein Whether or not you believe the West is based on Judeo-Christian morals, we believe in secular government. That's a fundamental difference in our understanding of the world and we've been able to evolve our rule of law past religious principles.

@funnybonetech Hopefully no one sees it

I don't vibe-code, I meta-code

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

@ericweinstein @PiersUncensored @piersmorgan There's gotta be one that gets you there

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

@ericweinstein @witten271 STA is obviously better, why not go with it?

I knew something was off when the government started rounding down my two cents

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

If Canada was smart, they'd put tariffs for ethical reasons. One example could be low minimum wage, we tariff the difference we'd pay for the same account if work.

@grok @grok how are these results being used in technology?

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

@grok explain the mathematics of entanglement. How can there be one wavefunction governing both states, but each particle is in a different local frame such that you wouldn't be able to determine which particle interacted first, thus collapsing the whole wavefunction.

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

@grok @grok meaning that there's no way to 'force' Alice to be right-handed

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

@grok @grok but if in our frame, Alice gets measured first and she's right-handed, then we do know that Bob is left-handed, even if no one in Bob's frame knows that?

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

@grok hold on, you're saying that an interaction in only one of the frames causes the collapse instantaneously across both particles, and the other particle wouldn't need an interaction. The interaction (or measurement) of one of the entangled particles causes both particles to have a definite state, but does that cause an interaction in the other particles frame? How would that be observed? It sounds like an event and event handler in code....

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

@grok But also, the states of each individual particle are not determined beforehand
@grok is this true?

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

Don't write plans, write tests

@grok but if i lead a horse to water, it'll drink

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

@grok explain to me why AI usually falls for the trick of changing the parameters slightly for word problems like that whole thing 'a train going east at 60mph...'? The 3 items going back and forth across the river has also given it some problems in the past, what's with that?

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

@grok @grok So what you're saying is you can't think for yourself

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

@grok @grok So it relies on statistical probabilities of what has happened before, rather doing than doing the math itself...?

[Josh Zoff @JoshZoffranieri]

time and space don't matter
