Your options are “grow” or “repeat”. Unfortunately, you’re the one most equipped to take responsibility for your own life, but you evolved into this situation, and evolution is messy. It’s not your fault, bit it’s your responsibility.
Accepting those things deeply enough, and what they mean personally, changes everything.
I’m glad there’s someone else out there with the same concerns.
I’d be more glad if unknowns and inconsistencies were frankly acknowledged. Even though in some senses Feynman contributed to the metaphorical tech debt, one of the things I love about his lectures is his frankness in regard to the (then) current state of knowledge, and about how much was simply unknown. Much of that is still unknown, and there are major glaring inconsistencies that are handwaved into oblivion.
To be clear, this is not an “anti-science” comment, but rather a desire to see the institution of science become more consistent, and to address unknowns honestly.
Where would the big bang come from?
The state cannot have been absolutely static - if it was, the big bang would not have occurred, and the same stasis would be existing now, unchanged.
Time is change, and exists whether or not we measure it.
Any information given would obviously be for use with another device.
QR code, for example. These are instructions or information about the crash, not links (except the QR code, which would obviously be read by another device).
The only proper response.
Because for the bulk of users, unless they are power users, all they need to know is that things didn’t work.
Things actually useful to have on the BSOD:
This. The institution of science is deeply biased towards the established knowledge base - partly due to monetary interests, partly due to ‘simple’ social inertia, like when someone doesn’t want some kid to come up with ideas that may invalidate things they have seen to (seem to) work.
Like with magnetohydrodynamics - it’s useful for modeling some things, but depends on the notion that space (as in, the interplanetary and interstellar medium) is either nonconductive or infinitely conductive - which simply isn’t the case.
Plasma cosmologists have made some really nutty assertions. However, ideas should be treated on their merit - and some of what they theorize has a lot of solidity. But in general, it’s treated with derision, because (admittedly) it also traffics in unicorns.
If someone who purports to traffic in unicorns also traffics in the Principia Mathematica, it doesn’t invalidate the latter.
I was wondering about that…
Trillium is great. I’ve been scrolling through here to see if anyone mentioned it, and was gonna put it out there if nobody had.
I haven’t tried it out on android (if that even exists), though.
That comment was fun. Kinda typically a bit of a snarky comment, but really came off as nice and wholesome in context.
I thought docking didn’t involved noses.
Love the love, hate the hate. It’s a good default.
Heck, you don’t even need an absolute infinity. Just a universe with enough fluctuation, and there are quite a few theories with that.
Meh. Everything that can happen, does happen.
Took a long time and a lotta effort.
