What about Trump cutting off Mexican cartels from importing fentanyl and blocking China from shipping fent precursors to Mx? Opium Wars revenge of the East against the West is ending.

I thought QM and GR were mathematically incompatible. How do you even perform an experiment without accepting one frame or the other? Sus.

Late to the party but it does not matter what users or Mozilla does. The problem is all the Big Corps and Gov sites now refuse to work with anything but a chromium browser. We can debate Firefox features and Mozilla missteps until the cows come home and it won't make a difference. The clock is ticking.

To save FF, Mozilla needs to enter the DC swamp, hire PR and lobbists to buy politicians to pass a law to force Gov.gov and (if possible) Big Corp sites to support Firefox. Maybe they can ally with EFF or others who understand Google's (don't be evil, lol) deepstate roots.

>With rationals you can only approximate.

Approximate relative to what? All actual measurement is implicitly or explicitly approximate such as L = x meters +/- epsilon. There is no infinite precision by which to discount rational measures as "approximate" and thus "invalid" in any way.

>What do "real" numbers buy you? That is, what do you get for the trouble of building your formalism around numbers that are not computable? Basically nothing.

You "buy" all of mathematics which operates on the assumption of "infinite" precision. It is an abstraction necessary to prove theorems and relationships of math. Abstracting from precision isn't a denial that it exists, it is the assumption that I can ignore it or leave it undefined. This is the assumption that distinguishes math from physics/engineering. Mathematicians deal with abstract e or pi but in the real world pi=3.14 if you are tiling your patio and 3.14159265... or whatever is necessary to get to the moon.

This is an interesting development. I think trying to program a computer to be "intelligent" without a valid theory of concepts is a fool's errand.

Unless things change we are going to end up like Cuba keeping old '57 Chevys running into the 80's. From what I've read nobody wants these modern ipads on wheels and used car prices of pre-2015 cars, regardless of miles, will continue to rise. The most telling thing is that the industry knows that if their customers knew about all the spying and there was an off switch then 99% would choose off. Perhaps they should think about something other than money.

Yes, this is the same argument used when the Biden admin during covid pressured the media companies to cancel people and news they did not like for "misinformation" instead of calling it censorship. This and LEOs buying data from Big Corp is just end-running the 1st and 4th amendments which is ultimately fascism.

I am old enough to remember when the fax machine first became ubiquitous in the 80's and read about how the Soviets were threatened by it. Unauthorized use was a crime and they stationed guards at fax machines to prevent mis-use. Perhaps I naively fell for CIA propaganda at the time but if true we can hope/estimate that California Commies will fall in less than 10 years since things are moving much faster in today's world.

So everyone is on the same page on this issue. The First Amendment is the right to anonymous free speech. I doubt they teach it in the govt schools but the Federalist papers, which argued for the US Constitution, was published anonymously.

Good point. I don't know how liability works in the Waymo case.

I think the human "driver" of that car will be charged with at least recklessness. Even if you are in a botcar you still have ultimate responsibility for safe operation. From the vids I've seen and the damage to a brick wall it had to be going at least +60 MPH in a residential neighboorhood. If he was paying attention he would have disconnected auto mode and hit the brakes long before it crashed. He was probably on his phone at the time or asleep.

FYI, En effet = Indeed. Toutefois = However. I had to translate so I thought I'd share.

> we made the intentional decision to not include email on the dumbphone 2 to stay aligned with our values. we created a communication device with essentials that help guide you off your smartphone screen, while still being able to operate in the modern world.

I'm looking for a dumb phone and this looked promising until no email. Email is underrated as a time saver, if you aren't getting hundreds of emails daily which is a choice. Email is not as urgent as text or phone calls and its main advantage is that it separates the sender/receiver schedule or timezone.

People need to learn to guard their time and schedule like a hawk and not operate in chronic reaction mode, i.e. someone else setting your priorities for the day.
