  • What member of a major musical group would be most helpful if you were together in a spaceship where something was going wrong?

    Jump

  • David Bowie so he can contact ground control.

    Grace Slick and the rest of that band, i.e. starship crew.

    Intergalactic Touring Band, you get the idea.

  • I had a random (probably dumb) idea: Given the whole Discord Drama going on, what if there was a Discord alternative, but in the style of Lemmy?

  • I can't understand what you're asking. If you want server to server relays, that's IRC that has been around since the previous millenium. Matrix also has something like that. If you want single independent servers, that's regular chat rooms.

  • In your opinion, what is the best brand of cell phones in terms of quality and price today?

  • I'm on my 2nd Motorola G series. Very good hardware value and the 1st was almost bloat free. I had to debloat the 2nd but it's mostly ok now. I keep hearing cringe things about Samsung. No idea about Xiaomi.

  • What happens if our mathematical system is proven to be inconsistent?

    Jump

  • By coherent I assume you mean consistent. Yes an inconsistent theory isn't considered useful in mathematics. In philosophical logic there's an idea of "paraconsistency" that means something like "inconsistent but only slightly" but I think it's not used much in math.

    Russell's fix to Frege's inconsistent system was quite complicated, much more than just adding an axiom disallowing certain types of sets. ZFC handles it differently too, by saying you can only create new sets by following certain rules designed to keep things consistent. Frege's system let you do whatever you wanted and it went sideways quickly, as Russel found.

  • Explaining the PeV neutrino fluxes at KM3NeT and IceCube with quasiextremal primordial black holes

    Jump

  • The KM3NeT experiment has recently observed a neutrino with an energy around 100,PeV, and IceCube has detected five neutrinos with energies above 1,PeV. While there are no known astrophysical sources, exploding primordial black holes could have produced these high-energy neutrinos. For Schwarzschild black holes this interpretation results in tensions between the burst rates inferred from the KM3NeT and IceCube observations, with indirect constraints from the extragalactic gamma ray background and with the non-observation of an associated gamma ray signal at LHAASO. In this letter we show that if there is a population of primordial black holes charged under a new dark 𝑢⁡(1) symmetry which spend most of their time in a quasi-extremal state, the neutrino emission at 1,PeV may be more suppressed than at 100,PeV. The burst rates implied by the KM3NeT and IceCube observations and the indirect constraints can then all be consistent at 1⁢𝜎, and no associated gamma-ray signal was expected at LHAASO. Furthermore, these black holes could constitute all of the observed dark matter in the universe.

    Neat. The story has been getting around though IDK how convincing anyone finds it.

  • This whistle fights fascists | How thousands of 3D-printed whistles are derailing ICE.

    Jump

  • Article isn't paywalled for me. Headline is ok. 3d printing a whistle supposedly costs under 5 cents. OTOH, that type of plastic might be less safe to put in your mouth.

  • Which directories should I back up in Windows before moving to Linux?

    Jump

  • Buy a new hard drive/SSD for your Linux installation. Put your Windows drive away in a drawer so all of its contents are saved, and you can swap it back in if you have to. A USB adapter can be helpful for retrieving files.

  • New Epstein photo of ‘wild’ dinner with Musk and Zuckerberg emerges

    Jump

  • Musk has red wine in his white wine glass! The horror!

  • What happens if our mathematical system is proven to be inconsistent?

    Jump

  • We know from Gödel's incompleteness theorem that if ZFC is consistent, then it is incomplete. We don't consider incompleteness to be a problem any more, so no biggie there. We generally assume and believe that ZFC is consistent and therefore incomplete, a perfectly fine way for it to be. But we can't prove its consistency, so there are understandably some lingering doubts.

    Interesting. Who did they decide he was running it for instead?

  • In the Age of AI Writing Tools, I Picked Emacs for My Sci-Fi Novel

  • Neal Stephenson in 1999, "In the beginning was the command line":

    In the GNU/Linux world there are two major text editing programs: the minimalist vi (known in some implementations as elvis) and the maximalist emacs. I use emacs, which might be thought of as a thermonuclear word processor. It was created by Richard Stallman; enough said. It is written in Lisp, which is the only computer language that is beautiful. It is colossal, and yet it only edits straight ASCII text files, which is to say, no fonts, no boldface, no underlining. In other words, the engineer-hours that, in the case of Microsoft Word, were devoted to features like mail merge, and the ability to embed feature-length motion pictures in corporate memoranda, were, in the case of emacs, focused with maniacal intensity on the deceptively simple-seeming problem of editing text. If you are a professional writer--i.e., if someone else is getting paid to worry about how your words are formatted and printed--emacs outshines all other editing software in approximately the same way that the noonday sun does the stars. It is not just bigger and brighter; it simply makes everything else vanish.
