The of productivity overkill going on in this idea is painful to think about.

The world can wait. Fuck it. Just slack off and waste some time. That's what I do.

When my eyes feel bad, it's time to destroy an hour of the day, go for a walk and anyone who can't get on board with that can take a hike.

The incredible part about that detail would be that in any other animal much of Schizophrenia's symptoms would be subclinical, in that language and socialization expresses most of Schizophrenia's detriments.

The paper is really about emergence and transmission of the disorder, and not so much about why humans find faults in those afflicted by it. But consider solitary animals, or apex predators. That they'd be schizophrenic, and construct distorted understandings of the world around them probably wouldn't matter, as long as they manage to hunt for food and produce offspring. No one would care about what a bear thinks of the origin of the universe, or how realistic its outlook of its own future is.

I realize that Schizophrenia has other debilitating effects, but it also affects people in varying degrees.

On the other hand, what if you paired it with an Apple Watch running Windows 95?

Oh god, we're talking about overclocking SD cards? I can't wait to see experimental results not only in general, but also in edge case scenarios like when encountering counterfeit hardware.

While the distribution of mass might quickly redistribute itself into a toroidal formation, internally, I think that area of effect (the fuzzy red zone in the diagram) would probably be pretty opaque to visible light. For a period of time, a gas cloud like that would probably have a really interesting appearance.

I'm imagining that, as the hot gases cool off, and condense onto floating debris, the molten/solid debris field will probably look pretty nebulous, and then settle into unstable bands. At that point, I figure the torus shape would be very apparent.

Once the hot gases were gone, I bet it probably took a while for the rest of the debris to get swept up into decaying orbits, and impact on either body (earth/moon).

If they could visualize it with a simulation, it'd probably be fun to watch, and tweak the parameters of the event.

I would wonder how long a vapor state would last, before precipitating to liquid, and then freezing into it's final solid form.

I bet the time scales for those phase transitions wouldn't be incalculable, even if gross estimates.

So, if the moon were a vapor bubble suspended in a vacuum, how long would that last? And how long for the heat to radiate out of it?

Sounds like that process would be pretty uniform, and dependent mostly on composition. But the uniformity of the temperature bleed would contribute to the maintenance of a stable orbit.

Congratulations on replying to me. I'm sure you're feeling good about it. I just wanted to let your know that I noticed, and feel special too.

Everything in the article sounds like trigger-happy speculation at best. Their equipment was brought down during a fire drill, but reading the article, it doesn't seem like anyone actually says or knows why.

  According to people familiar with the system, the 
  pressure at ING Bank's data center was higher than 
  expected, and produced a loud sound when rapidly 
  expelled through tiny holes.

  The bank monitored the sound and it was very loud, 
  a source familiar with the system told us. “It was 
  as high as their equipment could monitor, over 
  130dB”.

  Sound means vibration, and this is what damaged the 
  hard drives.

Those are the words of the author, in that last sentence. It's simply journalism at this point. It's not something worth construing as a technical assessment.

They (the staff at Vice) just want to scoop the article, and get Vice into the action. Was it a siren that was too loud? Was it pressure differential, triggering a head crash in a bernoulli box?

Since we're at least two degrees removed from the actual events, and we'll probably never get direct information from a postmortem report, this article, to me, reads as: Data Center Outage in Eastern Europe, Reason Unknown

  Upon closer reading, he explains it somewhat.

The author of the article is a nameless collective, not an individual. They explain it, but there is no "he" to ascribe the explanation to. We do not know the names of the authors.

Only if it stays in the coma.

Okay, rockets that can go very high, can still crash very far away.

An unpredictable, malfunctioning rocket could still million-to-one itself onto a school bus filled with children, halfway across a continent.
