The conceptual threads of Tech, QM & STEM in general means that there will be a higher concentration of people whose interests include both, at the world-view level.

Politics has its 'shut up & calculate' version too. Elon/tesla/etc fans (+appologists & "neutrals") dominate the audience there.

The organizations that fund those place them everywhere online, not just Xitter.

With every wave arriving here to BS, you could see the bots moving right over as well. It really is the majority, when compared to simple authentic users.

Likely due to age-based reluctance to change.

Wow, easily the best one-click improvement I've ever seen for @bsky.app !

I remember when giphy was as bad as it got!

This twitter clone is anti-conversations.

Having normal character limits is the 1st problem that must change in order for things to improve.

Workarounds? There's an option to select re: seeing posts only or comments I think.

Don't use nested comments, make separate ones. Quote posts >> comments.

Yeah, it's not really "taking apart," it's just how stacked harmonics or so-called noise always exist above & below a given signal.

This is how otherwise separate areas make the special transition across boundaries, like theta<>alpha<>beta.

FYI, this platform treats comments as subpar, which means no one will see them w/o extra effort.

Even though nesting may appear to be more useful, it really isn't.

You'd be better off posting w/60 un-nested (separate) comments, showing up in the lead post's stats & gaining visibility.

It does sound like not being able to reject the null hypothesis.

Too many people amassing astronomic wealth fundamentally do not believe in the idea that all people are equal and deserve equal rights, and they are spending their money on those ideas. This is the story.

I just mean starting from bulk metal (or bio), to nanoparticle, molecule, atom..

They each have intrinsic vibration rates.

These are very different from the original watch periodic rate, ofc! Even at the bottom of everything there's fluctuation @ zero point.

I agree it's basically par for the course.

Now it's exponentially growing.

Which is why we need to meta-up & get some new features installed that will help deal w/ the problems better.

Imagine if international law was ran the same way, everyone just running w/blinders on toward their own goal.

Are we talking middle-managers here, or real change?

What happened to Science Goodreads and how do we rebuild it? A 65 million dollar question (at least) - CAIROS Blog The story of the rise and fall of Mendeley

1/ Finally wrote up “The Story of Mendeley”! Most people know the tool, few know about its rise and fall. The Mendeley story provides important clues for how to build self-sustaining AND non-extractive knowledge commons, which is why I think it deserves more attention 🧵

Yeah, definitely the symbolic value of earning one of these is what is important to the winners.

The rest of us can grumble about that $5 medal for being 3rd best in the world.

So, when the media asks a Silver medal winner "Aren't you sad that you didn't win the Gold?" the correct answer is "I'm only 1.18% sad about that!"

Things do continue to oscillate even after being broken down into constituent parts, just not at the same frequency.

Phase changes go both directions, and we create new names for them to go along w/ the new characteristics.

That is quite a back door they left open!

More words don't always mean better explanation, when asked for a simple one.

OTOH, that you find some significant difference between it & what Popper said there is rather surprising.

Either way, there are much more evolved, sophisticated versions available now, if that's what's desired.

I don't buy that at all.

Maybe not "officially" informed, but no way they were clueless. Even just knowing the veil had been lifted & an arrest was possible was ran through political filters way before now.

1/7 🚨 New article out in @commsphys.nature.com

We show that viral 🦠 evolution is best captured through complex genotype networks, whose topology alone can drive oscillatory endemic dynamics and epidemic variability:

I think the easiest way to think of the distinction between them is with language itself, since we all know & use them.

Data = letters of the alphabet
Information = word meaning formed from letters
Knowledge = sentence meaning formed from words
Wisdom = using meaning in beneficial actions

There were a lot of self-citations too, which is sort of a red flag, and makes following up on ideas/claims very tedious.

Un(?)fortunately, this is related to my area, so I'll be obliged to dig in some more at some point, I think. Hopefully others will have too by then. Too busy now though!

Are you familiar with this?

What about the compound notions, like bouba-kiki itself?

There's got to be a reason that saying "moda-fikis" is such a satisfying way to relieve the tension of anger!

The platforms / publishers benefit from this #blackhat behavior because 1 of their primary arbiters of quality is quantity, which is easily gamed, even w/o automation.

Connecting fake nodes to others is critical, whether followers or citations. From there, they create higher order #disinformation.

They basically just copied the playbook from how they dominated social media platforms for the last 15 yrs.

Before #bots could write well enough, these same principles & outcomes were being handled 1st by human agents, later by humans using computers & finally autonomous LLMs instigated by humans.
