Since a lot of people are coming to BlueSky, hi and welcome! ☺️👋🏼

Physically I am here

Good morning, BlueSky. Is this platform still invite-only?

I’m getting aggravated by twitter’s DM limits, but then BlueSky doesn’t even have DMs yet, so 😪

Do you know why your Twitter account was suspended?

Imagine if every week for two years a random toddler toddled up to you with a gun and shot you. You’d be lucky to still be alive after getting shot >100 times.

Someone really needs to catch that crazy toddler. He can’t even still be classified as a toddler for much longer after two years, can he??

I mean… in a true singularity scenario, if geographically concentrated machine civilizations are evolving in timescales of milliseconds, speed-of-light communication delays become significant again, and civilizations could evolve on divergent trajectories even terrestrially

Making an independent civilization is going to require space colonization. Earth is too much of a melting pot now for distinct civilizations to exist here any more. Fast communication & travel has a homogenizing effect.

Three? Wait, was it a threesome, or a polycule, or…?

You know you’re a man when the installation instructions call for a 5/8” socket wrench, and you just so happen to own a socket wrench set, which you retrieve from a nearby shelf, and you quickly identify the 5/8” socket, and complete the task efficiently, and all this feels unreasonably affirming.

Another relevant quote

🤔 Because she’s been hiding in them?

How about, postponing the heat death of the universe indefinitely by using the remaining free energy more and more efficiently as the supply diminishes! ☺️

Yes, in reversible computing we are trying to make computing technology more energy efficient by recovering signal energies and reusing them for multiple digital operations! For this to work well, we also have to avoid throwing away information! It’s very challenging, but important for the future!

Circuits for reversible computing! ☺️

BlueSky is strange

News you can use

How do they see
