I appreciate the honesty.

And the UK have tested their laser weapons this year and took out a drone with them last month.

I think you can link bluesky to your personal domain. I’m not sure how it works.

I don’t want to make Mastodon propaganda, but Mastodon talks around technology are much better than Twitter ever was.

I’m tired of people arguing that the sum of the people in the platform does not equal its culture. Facebook and other social networks clearly benefit from having influencers in their platform, and they make the platform orbit around it.

People who use facebook are not responsible for old people posting what they want. But also, Facebook earns profit from that kind of behavior, so it makes its algorithms circle around it.

It’s like saying Instagram isn’t responsible for all the influencers and the ‘vibe’ it has. It is responsible for it and you don’t make the platform your own, especially not with the Big players.

Even Mastodon, where you can set up your own instance, has its culture, even if it is richer (culturally) than Instagram or Facebook.

No, each person does not make the platform their own or make out of it what they will. Only a masochist would stay on Facebook preaching their own culture while they have other options that fit better.

Your argument fails.

Also, on another note, I’m tired of Carl Sagan’s atheists using Darwinism as basis for lack of a God, and I’m not a christian or muslim. That’s just reason to silence people who don’t want to take “scientific” argument at face value. True science is debatable and built upon healthy discussion. Not something you toss at other people to make them seem dumb or preach like a religion.

To each its own, I like it here.

What would you suppose it is ambition, to feed off influencers? What good would that bring to the platform?

If the people who used it would benefit at least. But then again, that’s cryptocurrency culture, so I don’t know if both complete each other.

You can see other instances at work in the app already. There is an @ symbol that says where the message comes from, and those differ from each other already.

I have no access to the article, but it seems like we’re one step closer to the Philosopher’s Stone.

I think it’s interesting to see something related to the magic posted in the other article. What it’s all about. Also, the paper isn’t that complex to read. It goes through talking about quantum simulations (probably through Qiskit) and the differences between magical schemas and ordinary ones. I think it’s interesting to see what it’s all about.

Scientific communicators try to be didactic about Science but always miss the mark on what’s really going on, especially in Quantum Mechanics. Sadly, we don’t see the same enthusiasm from these people for other areas of Physics - the classical.

If you’re going to write “self-help” books on a scientific topic, might as well go all the way.

What I mean is, this paper is a fun read. Someone that has a grasp about computers will understand and appreciate.

Wish I knew Qiskit better. I bet it is quite an elucidating framework to work with. I mean, how else would you find this out without trying Quantum Mechanics on classical computers?

My posts and comments are already exposed, so it seems like it would make sense to make votes public as well. I think it contributes to the general spirit of the platform.

Apparently, the scientists find it hard to use scales to weigh the mice.

I like Lemmy’s culture better. It isn’t perfect, and maybe someday I’ll create my own instance. And I can do that.

I agree that the hashtag scheme is bad. It attracts people that want to self-promote or bots.

I like the mix of seriousness (serious scientific topic) and sensationalism (fat cells burning calories) in this article.
