What you've linked to is evidence that our understanding of gravity is wrong OR there is dark matter.

Those are evidence for our physics not actually matching reality, not evidence for dark matter specifically.

Honestly, I'm a little tired of the whole dark matter thing. There's no evidence for it, and physicists keep coming up with more and more complex models to fit the data when they don't actually understand what's going on there.

Why haven't MOND or other theories become more popular?

Edit: MOND isn't great either - it just has a parameter that they tune until it matches the observation.

Edit 2: I am not a physicist, I am simply a concerned citizen.

I'd be grateful if you could notify me when you release what you're working on. Email is in profile. Thank you :)

> Is it "simple coincidence" that "conspiracy theories" almost always come true?

That's quite a statement to make. In no way do "conspiracy theories almost always come true."

I read Permutation City a year or two ago, so bear with me.

I believe they run the computation on physical computers so that the people running in the simulation can, at any point, check if their reality is a descendant of the initial garden-of-eden configuration.

Not really, if the user wants they can post their location, credit card number, etc online. They stand between themselves and their own exploitation. Removing apis doesn't change that.

It's a shame that Firefox has said they won't implement many of these. The Bluetooth and USB apis would legitimately be really useful. I'm not sure the privacy issues really matter if there's a dialog that the website is trying to use one.

I'm not sure OpenGL will ever be deprecated, but it's always been a pretty awful and very complex api.

Can you be clearer about what’s going on behind the scenes here? Additionally, are you aware of the humanityplus and ##hplusroadmap communities?

3080 ($700) apparently has 238 teraflops of "tensor compute." We're frighteningly close to a petaflop of compute for less than a thousand usd.

The rendering backend is a work in progress. In the near term, it'll let you use several levels of rendering abstraction, down to wgpu, which is what it currently uses, and eventually vulkan as well.

At the very least, you should move to a more modern rendering api like vulkan, wgpu (though I'm biased), metal, or dx12.

There's going to be an editor, but these things take time.
