I am green with envy, that sounds amazing. Do you remember any exhibits from that time that aren't in place today?

I would like to signal boost The Museum of Jurassic Technology in Los Angeles. https://www.mjt.org/ I've never been anywhere quite like it. My friend once described it as "an art piece that uses museum curation as

Is it possible that this is actually just a very common writing pattern used by actual humans and that's the reason AI uses it so much?

Swinsian was the only Mac music player I could find that could come close to replicating my old MusicBee setup. The license fee was annoying but I paid it anyway and have no regrets.

I haven't had a chance to really dig into your resource yet but I am definitely going to do so. Perhaps I'll wait a few days until the change you mentioned is implemented.

I believe translation symmetry gives you momentum conservation, energy conservation will probably arise from a symmetry concerning time.

I recently got hold of a copy of that. I started Hand & Finch - Analytical Mechanics but their woolly discussion of virtual work and virtual displacement was very frustrating and unenlightening. Perhaps I'll have a better time with

But simply getting to the Lagrangian picture from the Hamiltonian picture would just leave me wondering why the Hamiltonian picture works! My motivation for getting to the bottom of all this is to fill the gaps in my physics understanding a

This is more the case for D-Wave's machines which are specialised for quantum annealing, allowing for greater numbers of qubits. Google and most other major hardware players make chips which can implement a universal quantum gate set a

Given that the treatments are meant to address gender dysphoria which is unhappiness caused by a sense of misalignment with one's sexual characteristics I struggle to think of a better measure of success than long-term happiness.

This is a common misconception about the review. It is true that none of the studies they looked at were double-blinded but they were still included if they were designed and conducted well enough. In a Q&A shortly after the review'
