measurement at the limits of quantum mechanics and gravity (and sometimes both).

[Physical Review Letters @PhysRevLett]

Researchers have detected individual collisions of Kr, Xe, and SF6 with an optically levitated nanoparticle, validating theoretical predictions and providing a proof-of-principle for primary pressure sensor designs.

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

We are seeking candidates for the Berkeley Lab Hoffman Postdoctoral fellowships, an experimental nuclear safety-focused position. Specifically, my group can host a postdoc to work on our QuIPS experiment (link below). If interested, please reach out!

@karch_andreas What happened to “never give up” Pac-Man? :(

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

Very nice work. One small step closer to the gravitational entanglement measurements proposed with levitated diamonds.

量子スピンが生み出す力だけで数センチメートル規模の物体を動かすことに成功。肉眼で見える大きさの物体が量子力によって動いたのが観測されたのは初めてです。この成果は、巨視的な量子重ね合��せの実現と物理学の統一的理解に向けた重要な一歩となります。@ScienceAdvances https://t.co/t64CTmJX5n

@marcusgnt Agreed. I’m not sure there’s much space between “the convex hull” and “all possible formalizable statements”. As a physicist though there are plenty of things like this (eg, anything requiring experimental input…)

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

Here's a sharper version. Genuine question. Are any of these new OAI results not obviously in the "convex hull" of what we already knew?

I updated myself six months ago that these things will solve all such problems. If there's anything surprising in here, please tell me...

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

Have I entered my AI luddite era? I'm totally unimpressed by this list. So a tool previously used to solve a bunch of math problems solved a bunch more math problems. What bayesian update am I supposed to do with this exactly?

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

Out beyond the convex hull, there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lays down in that grass...

[Acer @AcerFur]

mathematicians should start saying "it's within the convex hull" instead of "it's trivial"

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

@marcusgnt Thanks! Is there a place I could read a bit about this and what the new pieces are? (I imagine many such writeups will appear shortly...)

@fineline179 Don't forget "prompt" ☠️

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

@mathepi It's heuristic for sure, I don't disagree. But it seems useful at least for the time being

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

@Rafa_Schwinger Oh good, in addition to oracles now we have mind readers in here

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

@ArcanesValor @gavinrbrown1 @thebasepoint Too busy getting my own results

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

@schulzb589 @AdrianTMiranda Ok good, like I said I’m genuinely trying to process all of this. I’ll read the acer posts on this. That said do you think this was “in the hull”?

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

@AdrianTMiranda Yeah, my understanding is that the riemann one is like this: very surprisingly solvable by somewhat brute force methods (to vastly oversimplify it). So definitely an interesting piece of information to now have

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

@gavinrbrown1 @thebasepoint Find a divergence in N=8 supergravity is probably in the hull. Define Yang-Mills theory and prove it has a mass gap is probably not

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

@1ovthafew It's obviously a heuristic bro, relax

[Daniel Carney @four_form]

@gavinrbrown1 Similar to @thebasepoint's take, I think a reasonable view here is that this updates what I/we think lives in the convex hull or not. I'm far from expert on almost any of the material in this list, but the physics-flavored problems, while impressive, don't surprise me

@quantum_geoff @postquantum @Amir_Safavi_N @newscientist @carlorovelli @IvetteFuentesGu Good question, not sure. Not my work …
