Neat post, OP! I think I missed how is Shanon entropy relevant to the calculation. Is it relevant, or was it just a neat extra to add?

Tangential note: NIST has collaborated with the NSA, while denying said collaboration. Even currently, there’s suspicions about them collaborating with NSA to chose a non-safe post-quantum E2EE algorithm.

That’s the technical explanation for the changes, no an explanation for closing the discussion all together.

@bitwarden bitwarden locked and limited conversation to collaborators

They also locked the thread 16 hours ago (as of writing this comment), with no explanation.

Yes, but both Intel and AMD offer an equivalent (not as mature, though). AMD is FSR and Intel is XeSS

*boop

Maybe the duck was the friends we made along the way

A very useful tip for technical images (i.e., lab report/research): export whatever graph you created as .svg, and do some prettifying touches in InkScape. It is faaaar easier than doing it in code.

Also, always export the .svg, even if you’re not gonna use it. You never know when you want to do a very small correction, and it will save you quite some time.

I try to play my Arma 3 abiding to Geneva convention and is quite fun

Your comment seems off, has some references to QGIS (props to QGIS! It made my thesis way better)

I think Jellifyn does. You can also set up watch partys. Navidrome is lighter and more responsive tho.

You can sell it in the second hand market and save the money. Stonks

Jupyter is great for data analysis.

I have a fun story: I once traveled (not US) with some family members. My aunt had never boarded an airplane, and was nervous about security staff retaining her or something (she obviously was clear). So, when finally were past security, she exclaimed to my father “Brother, we passed! :D”. Security staff heard her and made her come back for extra scrutiny xd

Silly, but I like those because I can eat bits of it after using them :3

I changed the icon location, and my muscle memory still was trying to open them from the previous location, basically in a complete auto-pilot mode. That led me to a realization of how fucked up the situation was, and eventually helped me uninstall/reduce screen time of those apps.

From Linux, I’ve screen-shared my desktop in the web application for some years without troubles. Not even need to install the app.

Your comment seems so out of touch with the reality of majority of people. I think you are taking an extremist and unreasonable stance.

Completely agree with you on the first part. My point is that:

• Long term storage in a non-trivial thing to do, from a technical, social and ecological POV. However, it can be build, as shown in the linked documentary.
• Not going nuclear has disadvantages (that IMO out number the advantages).
• Going nuclear also has disadvantages. Thus, the view of experts on the field has a big importance of the topic. In this matter, the consensus I most commonly find in the physicists community is that nuclear is a energy source that should replace carbon/coal, but needs to be complemented with solar/wind/water/thermal, not just disregarded.

I would like to add that I did not try to call you dumb, I’m sorry if that’s the way it ended up sounding like. The dumb part was directed to the people in charge of the decisions, not you.

This is an interesting documentary about the topic: Into eternity. The documentary has a depressing and ephemeral feeling, but I find it extremely amusing that we are taking steps to protect people that will live thousands of years from now.

Taking decisions like “nuclear or not nuclear”, “how to dispose the waste”, etc. is hard, but doing so ignoring the people that invest their whole life studying the topics is just dumb.
