Inner earth and outer earth.

Theme?

Yup, sometime in the next year or two I’ll get laid off, then I’ll just mooch off my spouse.

There’s a saying you might want to get familiar with

“If everywhere you look, all you see is assholes, maybe you’re the asshole.”

Unless some numbers are opposite of a gap, then it could never land with that number facing up.

Each side needs an opposing flat part, and I don’t think that can happen with a die with an odd number of sides.

Toothbrush and time

D) Move manufacturing and other dirty processes off planet and live here.

According to a US Army study, Iron and Tungsten could create galvanic action, causing both materials to degrade if in contact.

So at first glance, it seems like this combo wouldn’t last as long as it could with just Tungsten.

Stardew Valley/Concerned Ape has a policy of fixing saves personally.

If you use a web email account, just create a draft email and don’t send it. Then log into your email account on the other device and read it there.

This shows that AI isn’t an infallible machine that gets everything right — instead, we can think of it as a person who can think quickly, but its output needs to be double-checked every time. AI is certainly a useful tool in many situations, but we can’t let it do the thinking for us, at least for now.

No, it’s not “like a person who can think.” Unless you mean it’s like an ADHD person who got distracted halfway through the transcript and started working on a different project in the same file.

I open the picture on my computer, then screenshot it before uploading.

That removes any association with the original picture without relying on any exif stripping that might miss a hash or weird embedded info.

Agreed, and there’s also the bonus of much less likely to get a counterfeit item.

New math came out of it, they figured out more and more efficient ways to figure out the solution to “is this prime?”

Those same math techniques can be used for other problems, and possibly learn something that solves a problem you actually care about.

Research is important because you never know what weird problem someone is working on might solve. Maybe it will provide a new math solution that creates better CGI, maybe it’ll finally create a technique to solve fusion.

Maybe it’ll just be something that we know now that we didn’t know before. There are FAR FAR FAR more wasteful things in the world than some nerds trying to solve big prime numbers.

Sync for Lemmy.

Here’s the source of their comment.

Why is anything worth the effort?

Cause research into primes makes computer security stronger. Cause research in general can make new discoveries that can lead to unexpected improvements in life.

Cause we need to know the answer to everything.

Cause it’s better than mining crypto or doing AI training models over and over.

2 to the power of something, then subtract one to make it an odd number.

TV show was quality. The end of the series was about as good as anyone could hope for.
