>>> an exposition of the projection model in the most creative ideas about space in contemporary mathematics such as twisters, quasicrystals, and quantum topology. Robbin clarifies these esoteric concepts with understandable drawings and diagrams. Robbin proposes that the powerful role of projective geometry in the development of current mathematical ideas has been long overlooked and that our attachment to the slicing model is essentially a conceptual block that hinders progress in understanding contemporary models of spacetime. He offers a fascinating review of how projective ideas are the source of some of today’s most exciting developments in art, math, physics, and computer visualization. <<< https://www.amazon.com.au/Shadows-Reality-Dimension-Relativity-Thought-eboo…

it's nice to think about this algorithm part i'm indoors right now and where i was working on it was outdoors. i'll just open up an unsync'd copy here that system is offline; i wonder how in the world i got my code onto it O_O maybe i copied it over by hand? maybe i started dev on it? i dont' think ihave the camera sorted out for qr codes, or a ready usb key

Scientists say they've debunked Google’s quantum supremacy claims once and for all

Scientists say they've debunked Google’s quantum supremacy claims once and for all https://share.newsbreak.com/1joxv01w A team of scientists in China claim to have replicated the performance of Google’s Sycamore quantum computer using traditional hardware, thereby undermining the suggestion the company has achieved quantum supremacy. As reported by Science magazine, the scientists used a system comprised of 512 GPUs to complete the same calculation developed by Google to demonstrate it had passed the quantum supremacy milestone back in 2019. The endeavor was led by statistical physicist Pan Zhang, who said his team’s supercomputer performed the calculation 10 billion times faster than Google had thought possible. Quest for quantum supremacy Quantum supremacy (or quantum advantage) can be defined as the point at which quantum computers can outstrip the maximum potential performance of classical supercomputers in a particular discipline. Three years ago, Google announced it had achieved this feat with Sycamore, which it said took just 200 seconds to complete a statistical mathematics problem that would take a supercomputer 10,000 years to solve. The problem was architected in such a way as to accentuate both the attributes of quantum computers, which exploit a phenomenon known as superposition to speed up calculations, and the limitations of traditional systems.

Swallowing Jones’ Kool-Aid for 500, please Alex. https://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-edit-alex-jones-20220804-cjqsggh73vh… Alex Jones is one of the worst humans on the planet, a pathological liar who exploits others’ agony for attention and profit. We dare him to sue us for defamation. <<< Reposts etc

Müller-Maguhn was a courier between the GRU and Assange!
by professor rat 06 Aug '22

06 Aug '22

You've got nearly five pages in the Senate report in which everything is redacted. This occurs when Andrew Müller-Maguhn, a German hacker affiliated with the Chaos Computer Club (he visited Assange repeatedly at the Ecuador embassy) enters the story. Look at this: https://twitter.com/michaeldweiss/status/1295807843099119617 The wicked flee where none pursue - old proverb

Conservatives make a weak case against Govt Shitcoins
by professor rat 06 Aug '22

06 Aug '22

It is not obvious that monetary policy needs additional flexibility, and any benefits from eliminating physical currency must be balanced against the costs of digital surveillance and the loss of privacy.” https://dailyhodl.com/2022/08/05/us-conservative-political-organization-mak… This sort of argument is true as far as it goes but I don't see how these cons respond to govts airdropping their shit and promising to turn a blind eye on smaller transaction surveillance. The fascist Chinese are already making the running on this! Practical money-laundering tactics and a huge regulatory-arbitrage PR campaign look like a better response from this self-described, progressive, leftist anarchist. And the notion cons care about consumers is completely risible. Most of their stink-tanks revolve around screwing consumers wholesale. When in power this type of con is as bad as Marxist-Communists. ( Sear Dolfuss 34 and Pinochet 73 ) Consumers beware the walking brain-dead.

I hate to agree with Mollusk, but . . . https://dailyhodl.com/2022/08/05/billionaire-elon-musk-reveals-why-he-suppo… And DOGE ( or similar ) beating shitcoins like the Chinamerican crap will underline net-hegemony for all to see and for all time. Chinamerica only continues to run some petty things so long as a lot of people believe they run things - they stop believing - *they* stop running some things.
