The EU is not a tech company. Then yet, they are funding these kinds of things. Check for instance https://gaia-x.eu/ However, these projects don't really have good results and generally are better made in the private

Because of better and easier to prove legal definitions. It's not about the lack of competition, but just the number of users you have.

A good way is to put in on bio powered power plants. So you grow trees etc in dedicated areas, which remove co2 from the air. You harvest it for centrally burning for energy and co2 capture. In the meantime you grow new trees etc at the har

Contrast that to Zelensky's: "The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride." Putin's weakness is showing all around.

It might be that that is what relativity theory implies. Then again, it might not. We don't know and that is what Hossenfelder is pointing out. We just have some formulas that seem to fit our observations mostly on large scales. We kno

Some issues that string theory has: - We have not found any evidence for it. - Some predictions have been made from it that weren't found (e.g. no supersymmetric particles in the LHC). - It can be tuned to fit almost fit any universe a

There are such reachable truths, but every mathematical system has a non empty set of axioms - or assumptions- which are 'given'.

No, they're not wrong. Some of these concepts are hardly explainable without math.

If you want fame, status or power -> certainly don't be humble. If you want truth, understanding or science discoveries -> be very humble (intellectually).

I hope you win! I usually get my reality checks from Sabine Hossenfelder, who a while back explained that all these fusion claims are wildly optimistic. You can find her video here: https://youtu.be/LJ4W1g-6JiY I am no scie

I would love that. But honestly, I would be surprised if fusion energy will be economically feasible before 2100. If ever.

I always try to see the human brain from an evolutionary perspective. What the human brain added was a way to simulate other brains, because of growing communication ability for coordination's sake. It's basically a way to recogni

> however that overlooks how difficult it is to collect such data. It is very difficult in physics as well. Do you know how hard it is and how much effort is involved in building the LHC? Or Ligo? Or the JWST? Or ITER? They cost billions

In the end I suppose it doesn't really matter to nature if we think how it works is problematic or not. It will just be as it is. Or to quote Bohr:"Stop telling God what to do."

Fun idea! But space keeps on expanding. So at some point most mass will be in black holes, but every black hole will be so far from every other black hole that even light will travel forever without ever being able to reach another.

If your point of view is how it was then that was an unhealthy and unequal relationship. Of course it hurts, but you did the right thing and you will be happier in the long run. I've learned for myself to evaluate things as honestly fo

Including a futureproof decoder in every single image is a huge filesize overhead though. Or maybe I don't exactly understand your proposal.

Russia was waging a proxy war in the east, and used these channels as an propaganda weapon. So it's not so strange as you try to make it seem. It's not the same as forbidding certain words and jailing journalists for 15 years for

That also holds for me, which I suppose makes me a slow coder. I imagine that coders like Thorvalds or Carmack don't have these issues and that's why they are fast. In my head its like typing. I 'type' with 2 fingers and
