@archeohistories Can Americans find a real Popeye for a new president who can stop the war in Iran and put America back to normal country. We can set at the dinner table and smile at one and another 😀 knowing that we have a future of being respected in the world .
@archeohistories He was my cartoon hero as a young child. Black and white TV. I'm the fourth son, with four younger sisters. Got it from both sides as Mom was a grizzly if you messed with the girls. On your own with the three older brothers. I joined the Marine Corps! Much easier.
@ProfFeynman I have been an experimental researcher, now scientist since 1999. I had to retire as a licensed master electrician due to WPW heart surgery. What is electricity? became my goal.
I have been wrong 99.99% of the time while trying to figure it out. That .001% sure is wonderful.
We've learned from experience that the truth will out. Other experimenters will repeat your experiment and find out whether you were wrong or right. Nature's phenomena will agree or they'll disagree with your theory. And, although you may gain some temporary fame and excitement, you will not gain a good reputation as a scientist if you haven't tried to be very careful in this kind of work. And it's this type of integrity, this kind of care not to fool yourself, that is missing to a large extent in much of the research in cargo cult science.
@TheGoodTeacheer@PhysInHistory Approximates ~ only phi is phi. Like pi, but with a complimentary function to the sphere that allow both to scale equally, like the focus of a hemisphere: r(phi - 1) on the Z axis. Uses phi and pi, like the Great Pyramid. Hmmm.
@PhysInHistory Fibonacci series: 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34……
Starting with 0, 1 then every new number is obtained by adding previous 2 numbers.
Every number divided by its previous number gives the Golden Ratio.
The Golden Ratio (ϕ) is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 1.618, often called the "divine proportion."
It appears in nature, from the spirals of sunflower seeds to the structure of galaxies, and has been used in art and architecture, including the Parthenon and Da Vinci's "Vitruvian Man." ✍️
@PhysInHistory This ratio is used in the focus of a hemisphere. Radius times (phi - 1) on the Z axis. Experimentally derived first, then mathematically confirmed after a year of failure trying to find it.
@_Jack_Alderson@emollick I'm not sure how to take this. An intriguing idea that the old folks running the show would fight to the death over. I like it. Peer review them for starters.
Very cool analysis of the submissions to a major management journal that shows how much the system of science, built for humans, is under strain as a result of AI.
AI can be used to do better science or it can be used to just do more stuff. The danger is that "more" is winning
@emollick same shape shows up in code review. once producer rate goes 10x while reviewer capacity stays human, queue depth is the bottleneck. quality gates collapse to length-of-diff filters because attention is the rate limit. fix is review schemas that compress to cheaper units.
Orbital Data Centers + Starship’s launch-cost tipping point (and why Earth’s energy “crisis” isn’t)
Starship didn’t just lower launch prices it crossed the threshold where putting massive data centers in orbit became cheaper than powering them on Earth.
Meanwhile, simple battery buffering doubles U.S. annual energy output with zero new power plants.
@alemawork Follow the money, and see the Western petrochemical agencies recording record profits. This is about redistribution of wealth and maximizing profits. Human life is incidental to the manipulators ~ Trump is Putins puppet. Always has been. Peace.
Are we in the works of preventing a third world war, or disproportionately heavily involved in creating one? We’ll be informed of the answer pretty soon!!!
My hope is to see the former bringing peace to our planet!!!
@BarackObama Do you think it was planned by, you know? Like the first one and his ear with no marks? I wish you could serve again as our Commander in Chief. And bring out the Epstein files. Wish you had back then...
Although we don’t yet have the details about the motives behind last night's shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner, it’s incumbent upon all us to reject the idea that violence has any place in our democracy. It’s also a sobering reminder of the courage and sacrifice that U.S. Secret Service Agents show every day. I’m grateful to them – and thankful that the agent who was shot is going to be okay.
