- Comment on Here are the patents Nintendo and the Pokémon Company are suing Palworld about, according to Pocketpair 2 weeks ago:
If those are the only 3 items they’re suing over, in an American court of law it’d be a slam dunk for PocketPair. Theres so much prior art, open use, and poor definitions involved the patents would be quickly invalidated.
But I’m not aware of the nuance of Japanese court, only that they tend to protect IP even more strongly than US courts.
- Comment on Trump's eligibility 2 weeks ago:
It sounds straightforward until it’s used as a weapon by the sitting administration to prevent competition at the ballot box.

Jupiter probably also threw an icy giant out of the inner solar system when it was making the family unstable. What a good big bro to have.

And because it always bears repeating;
According to JPL’s Chief Engineer for Mission Operations and Science, Marc Rayman-
Let’s go to the largest size there is: the known universe. The radius of the universe is about 46 billion light years. Now let me ask (and answer!) a different question: How many digits of pi would we need to calculate the circumference of a circle with a radius of 46 billion light years to an accuracy equal to the diameter of a hydrogen atom, the simplest atom? It turns out that 37 decimal places (38 digits, including the number 3 to the left of the decimal point) would be quite sufficient. - Comment on Electrons are easy 4 months ago:
Thank you for the link. It makes sense I haven’t heard too much on it. More a postulation than a theory. And kind of untestable/ philosophical too.

I’ve heard this weird concept repeated over and over but I’ve never once run across it in literature or in speaking to my particle physicist friend. Can you provide a source?
- Comment on Can't argue with that logic 4 months ago:
If you ignore that one monolog and just accept that the extra-dimensional aliens/future human entities didn’t understand how to communicate with his daughter using only gravity, so they captured her father and had him do it, it makes a lot more sense.
And really that is what the script is trying to say… I think. It’s just very ham-fisted and ranty which does happen in Nolen movies. Basically "these beings have all the power in the universe compared to us, but without knowing (loving) the person they’re trying to reach they can’t find a way to get the message across.
Honestly in my head-cannon, the dude just went from self-sacrificing by falling into a black hole to looking at his daughter when she was trying to convince him not to leave. He’s more than a little emotional and we can’t expect him to make perfect sense.

What if Python, but less legible?

Yet again sanitization and preparation of training inputs proves to be a much harder problem to solve then techbros think.
