I could not read some of his talks, but most of the text was very clearly thought out, and time-tested over decades of stunning success. He lived his advice of staying within the boundaries of what he understood well.
So if quantum computing is expected to be that powerful, what will happen to the trillions pouring into old-tech data centers?
Anyone else get the feeling that something doesn't add up here? Just what nonpublic evidence is behind these decisions to ban the new tech?
So Charlie almost went blind in the 1950s, then went on to live many decades more, with amazing success. Ben Franklin and then some.
I understand that aviation safety is certainly a primary concern for NWS/NOAA but ground level forecasts are also very important for public safety.
Anyone else know the history of the canal system in the US state of Indiana? The State got sunk so heavily into debt building so many soon-to-be-obselete canals, that they ended up passing a balanced budget amendment.
Another reason to be skeptical about current computing technologies, is the potential of quantum computing. Much about the quantum world can only be understood using matrix math, so intuitively, quantum computers may be ideally suited for AI applications which also rely on matrix math. If I am oversimplifying this, please chime in.
My ldl-c numbers are lower than my wife. We both are in the top few percent of the population for exercise measured in weekly steps. I don't take statins, she does. But her numbers have been going up, while mine have been dropping. I get more fiber though. Clearly, statin therapy is questionable based on this small sample size.
midwesterndoctor, please don't mix arguments
they've been working in secret. watch the presentation
The common stock price is heavily manipulated. Maximum pain theory in options applies. Be careful but the dips are a good place to carefully buy.
low score... so? what do I do?
Antenna works good enough for the 3 PBS channels I like, even though their antenna is 50 miles away. Just one of those cheap $30 rabbit ears. What's interesting is that the signal bounces off a south wall,through the N patio door, so when anyone moves in the path, the signal is garbled. Also, depending on the station, it must sometimes be repositioned. I enjoy the retro feel of that.
1. It accepts antenna input 2. It accepts usb input 3. It accepts dvd/cd input
But the streaming is so strewn with ads, it's unbearable
Not sure about that. A few days ago, a post showed how a guy tricked the ai into shooting him with a BB gun. Was it real, or clickbait?

success has components of luck as in "right place, right time" for someone with the right qualities and connections, and many of the very successful are quick to admit this
I am a 3rd generation machinist along the paternal line, and although the machines I operate are in expensive labs, those my father and grandfather operated were probably just as challenging. Engineering also seems to often run in the family. How much is nature and nuture? "It varies" is a safe response
strength vs hypertrophy training
But over the past couple of decades, HFTs and dark pools have arisen to manipulate prices of common stock to accomodate large clients/orders.
Options prices, especially leaps, may provide a better indicator. This is the space where the hedge funds make billions while the "retail" crowd agonizes over mysterious fluctuations in common stock prices. Like the arrow in the Fedex logo, once you see it, you'll always see it ;-)
