Pi day already?
It comes around so fast.

In a similar vein, knocked up in blender geometry nodes after drain cleaner dissolved the original.

We have a clear path worn in the grass going to hole under the fence, but my camera only triggers on the dog investigating it. I'm starting to think the sensitivity settings do nothing.

Forty odd years ago, we had shiny new buildings and the odd lecturer who hatted teaching and treated undergrads as a necessary evil.

But at least we didn't have to pay for it.

High-speed clocks
Clock dividers
Pulse extenders
Positive & negative edge detection
Sequence controllers
Latches of assorted flavours

Yes, I'm back playing with Minecraft redstone!

My brother just seeded the mud that was once a lawn. Looking a tad thin.

Why am I designing high-speed moss farms in Minecraft instead if playing Hytale?

So, after playing Hytale for a while, I went back to Minecraft to try out the latest version.

The number of bugs I came across in the PS5 version makes me doubt
Which game is in prerelease state.

Are you thinking fence posts or really chunky gate posts?

I wonder where AI chat bots come in that list?
How many people use them to check facts?

Never trussed physics teachers after mine forgot to mention that QM and relativity don't work together nicely:)

I have not used it for years, I just wanted the long USB cable at the time.

Monte Carlo simulations / effective cross-section stuff.
Standard libraries were faster in the end.

Playing more Hytale than Minecraft at the moment.
F*** my interpretations of the laws of physics for now.

I was just unplugging my USB random number gen, and a chunk of PCB came away with the USB socket.
Looks like the finish I used on the plywood box ate away the board.

I think it is all your fault for not doing more videos promoting how exciting physics and astronomy are.

Geology to ornithology

Is that wave or particle physics?

So, when you open the box, you can uncover the history of the cat in the box that didn't exist until you opened it.
Is that changing the past or just creating it?

In this interpretation, the observers have extra data available like redshift and possibly Terell rotations, etc, that they could use to adjust their understanding of events.

The differences between the observer relative and the observer experienced interpretations of the laws of physics go pretty deep.

Just comes down to what is reality?

Can you hold up a diagram to a particle or atom and explain that something is just an illusion?

Unless you have already cleaned up with isopropyl alcohol, I would suggest more flux. It always works for me.

The biggest problem with the idea that the universe is dragged through time by entropy increasing is that you can't avoid the CMB being the thermal signature of ice with an effective surface area 10 billion times greater than the stars.
So, obscuring 0.2% of the sky.
But, just might explain dipole!

If you are sitting next to me, I would go with lens inspector.

There was a paper a while back that looked at viability bias in these diagrams, but I can't remember the conclusions or how main stream it was.

Are these diagrams already corrected for effects like white dwarf viability at distance red-shifted red giants?

So, back looking at alternative interpretations of the laws of physics and especially time.

However. I'm stuck on a path that requires energy conservation of perfect otherwise observer effects vanish, making it incomparable with std cosmology.
Worse symmetries are just lost data, a multiply by 0.

On the early dialup bulletin boards, dark matter and dark energy posts got transferred to the alternative theories section because the guy we would now call a moderator did not think they were real.
As the "most sensible nutter that posts there," I had the power to send them back the physics.

I didn't think you liked soft science.

Is showing my ideas were wrong. I assumed billions of years of cosmic rays going in and secondary proton radiation going out would produce a chemical cryogenic bomb rich in hydroxil and unstable nitrogen compounds.
Maybe sum do just go pop when they warm up.
