My FLRW picture is a jelly filled donut that’s secretly a light-matter-Dunkin-glazed with a dark-energy-munchkin in the middle making it whole.

The munchkin is timescape’s void (and my favorite breakfast treat)

I believe you but how do you know?

Not sure I love “graph minors” in this context

Meet Willow, our state-of-the-art quantum chip Our new quantum chip demonstrates error correction and performance that paves the way to a useful, large-scale quantum computer.

Incredible accomplishment but

“It lends credence to the notion that quantum computation occurs in many parallel universes, in line with the idea that we live in a multiverse, a prediction first made by David Deutsch.”

Fuckin booooo

They haven't invented an AI that can do what we do as poorly as we do it.

you are not a serious person if your fear of A.I. is “what if scary computer decide 2 extinct humans” and not the health insurance companies using it to sentence people to death

The explanation I hear is usually ‘collecting data is costly and slow, but simulating data is cheap and fast, so let’s do that’. You know what’s also cheap and fast? Spinning on my office chair. Looking at that tree. Doesn’t mean they say anything useful to complement or replace actual trials.

Get a grip

It’s been this way for years dude
