The wear on the pieces and board was not an input for the AI tool they used. Also, they didn’t “ask” an AI anything, as it was not a natural language AI tool.

Maybe it isn’t changing mass at all, and what’s changing is just the probability distribution resulting from a hypothetical flavor measurement. If we could measure the mass (collapse to mass eigenstate), I think I understand we would see no

Not a physicist, but here are a couple Wikipedia excerpts I found: From page “Conservation of mass”: “In general, mass is not conserved. The conservation of mass is a law that holds only in the classical limit.” From page “Neutrino oscilla

Professor Simonton, quoted here, seems to be confused about what is meant by Shakespeare’s “problem plays”.

The U.S. itself has been engaging in similar behavior around the world for a long time. The specific relevance of Israel may only be a combination of recency and amount of U.S. attention. But “scapegoat”? “Israel did 9/11” is treating

Hey, do you mind sharing any of these other forums? I’m trying to make my way up the satire food chain.

I would guess that was not a joke. The benefits could drop all the way to 0 at a reasonable point unless you impose the stronger condition that the function be analytic.

I actually agree with your premise of ruling out “not at all”. I was just responding to your characterization of “if ever”. I’m not quite as certain as you are, though. Just because a technology is possible does not mean it is inevitable.

Let’s say there are three options: {soon, later, not at all}. Ruling out only one to arrive at {later, not at all} implies less knowledge than ruling out two and asserting {later}. Awareness of a fundamental limitation would eliminate possi

Not being forced to open a joint account either… In all seriousness, all the pushback against paternalism comes from people who still believe in free will.

The phrasing was matter of fact. And there is nothing inherently wrong with reposting. Certain other websites have developed a culture opposed to it, but I have yet to see that here.

One aspect worth pointing out is that ILS are transferring insurance risk outside of the insurance industry. Appetite has gone up and down but e.g. hedge funds would normally not be available to assume insurance risk otherwise.

If it isn’t, it should be. No one asks in a forum because they want to hear from an LLM.

One thing that makes soft sciences softer is that it is inherently more difficult to achieve the same statistical significance, due to both higher underlying variances and logistics of obtaining large samples. Publishing with higher p-value

Median and mean are not the same distribution. Consider three uniform values. For the median to be small two need to be small, but the mean needs three. I think order statistics are more useful than what you described, because “min” and “ma
