  • Definitely not Feynman. He developed his whole public clown persona only to distract from his guilt over participating in mass murder. Curie was (still is) literally too radioactive to safely get anywhere near to. Her remains are sealed in lead. Which of the other ones had least toxic masculinity?

  • That was just a metaphor. An event horizon is different from the Hubble radius in several ways.

  • Actually you wouldn't notice anything special crossing the event horizon. You'd just continue to fall.

  • Makes you wonder why only one beetle does this. Were the adaptions necessary to survive the digestive acid really complex or really unlikely, maybe?

  • I spent years never having read or heard of this fish at all, but thankfully that dark dark time in my life just ended.

  • That's not an empirical observation nor a new discovery though. It just an analogy that leans on the definition of Schwarzschild Radius. No one is seriously implying, that we're somehow trapped in the very center of a black hole with the Hubble limit as the event horizon equidistant around us.

    In fact, the analogy only holds, if the Hubble parameter is not constant and this new result, if it holds up, would still indicate, that it is not constant. As was expected by the standard model of cosmology. If the Hubble constant is decreasing, and consensus is that it does, than the Hubble radius is also different from an event horizon in the following way: light reaching us from more than 5 billion years ago comes from regions that have always been receding from us at speeds faster than light.

  • What?

  • But physicists actually do that? They often write it like this: ∫ dx f(x) or this: ∫∫∫ dxdydz f(x,y,z)

  • Ultraviolet induced visible fluorescence photography

    Sounds complicated, but it's just shining UV light on an object in a dark room and taking a normal photo with long exposure. If you want to be pure about only picturing visible light, you might need a UV filter, since many cameras can already see a bit of UV despite inbuilt filters.

    How to DIY.

  • Yes, fruit is a botanical category, but vegetable is not.

  • Then the inherent contradictions of capitalism really started to hit, quantitative change passed to qualitative change and progress grinded to a halt and science and technology are regressing now in the imperial core.

  • They proved it for n=5 and 10.

  • Yes and because C3 is a golden ball, you should confidently switch to the second door. Because now it's just the Monty Hall problem with balls instead of goats. When the madman chose a door to opened, he deliberately chose a bad (mixed) door, otherwise he would have given away the correct location. The fact, that he opened the third instead of the second gives you new information, that you can take advantage of by switching, increasing your chances. Had the ball been silver, it might have been revealed to come from a bad door.

    Edit: damn I just realized he picked the ball from the first door, not the second. Okay in that case we might actually have to calculate probabilities, but I'm too lazy for that.

  • And maybe the real potion was the therapy we went to along the way along the way

  • But what's even on the y-axis? Aspect ratio? X is probably weight?

  • Yes, that's when coal comes from. There were giant global fire storms, because of all the dead trees and also because there was more oxygen. The oxygen also caused insects to become gigantic. They don't have lungs, just random holes in their body so the airs oxygen content limits their size.

  • Outside of mating season, birds definitely do sing just for fun.

    And even in mating season, I wonder if birds really consciously try to "get laid" or if they just sing, because it feels like the right thing to do in the moment and then getting laid happens. I mean, some start singing very young. How would they know what it's for the first time? Not all birds are as smart as crows.

    This review paper looks at the motivation for both kinds of singing: intrinsically motivated (just for fun, all year round) and singing that attracts mates. In the latter, it's unclear, what triggers the motivation. The author supposes, it might be a combination of socially reinforced behavior and the vicinity of a mate, rather then the act of copulation, that triggers the reward.

  • Without medication
