Sorry, it was of course 0.02 eV, not just 0.02 :) k = 1.38e-23 J/K = 8.6e-5 eV/K, so kT = 0.025 eV for T = 300 K.

Just note that in practice nobody wants to keep their data storing atoms frozen near absolute zero, but rather prefer to have them at temperature close to 300 K. However to store 1 bit of information at given temperature the energy differen

With condition of being suppled by resources for living I think it's a good idea to go into research. It's a bit unrelated, but I think that maybe instead of just introducing basic income to suppress social tensions caused by bots

It is unclear what kind of technology are they planning to use for this shield. If it is usual electromagnets, it's unclear where would they take energy from, if superconducting ones than it's unclear that it would be possible to

Did you try Qt? Creating GUI with qtdesigner is similar to Delphi, and Qt Studio is well integrated nowadays.

I think that Continuum Analytics does incredible work in this direction, so it is really possible to just do `conda install matplotlib` and install matplotlib on any distribution.

It seems that something like entropy-based helpers that predict probabilities of next letters and make those letters large could increase input speed. One of the first examples of such helper was done in David McKay lab: https://

I don't like this use of dual numbers notation for differentiation because division by a dual number is not defined. For example, how would one calculate ε^2/ε? If ε is a matrix [0,1;0,0] then it doesn't have inverse and thus

Ask HN: Why there are no GPU clouds using cards like GTX 1080?

It would be really fascinating if you added GPU instances with GTX 1080 cards. These cards could allow you to make the prices much lower than those of AWS GPU instances that use K-80 and make it a perfect fit for Deep Learning applications

And it is processed not by Vim itself, but by the terminal emulator that sends Esc character to Vim. So the shortcut Ctrl+[ was not invented by vi author, but is a consequence of using Esc to exit from the edit mode.

There is also another fundamental limit, the speed of light. Because of the special relativity theory nothing including electrical current can transmit information faster than the speed of light (c = 3*10^10 cm/s). So if maximum size d

I think it's worth to mention here that Wolfram site also has a so called "Wolfram Programming Lab", which is basically a free access to Mathematica hosted in a cloud and not requiring registration. Link to create and open a

Could you elaborate what's wrong with that idea? As far as I could understand he just talks from psi-empistemic point of view about wave function collapse. Although now we don't have any way to determine whether psi-epistemic or p
