a single classical reality is not just a mathematical convenience but a real physical process — an idea called “physical collapse.”

The experiments find no evidence of the effects predicted by at least the simplest varieties of these collapse models.

Sometimes, small tweaks to a molecule’s chemical structure yielded a totally new odor. Other times, major structural changes barely changed the odor.

Katie Porter EXPOSES Corporate Greed Causing Inflation
revealing the huge role corporate greed has on inflation. brings attention to wage and utility inflation remaining the same despite corpora profits being significantly much higher historically.https://youtu.be/hIuA5MNs87A

The UniWave sea platform is an artificial blowhole that harvests energy from ocean waves. Independent analysts now predict it'll create some of the cheapest renewable energy on the market – and some of the most reliable and predictable, as well.

Art is commonly portrayed as a domain of creativity or even ‘genius’, but it is also a domain of diffuse, shared influences and outright copying (even ‘stealing’) as artists reproduce their own work or that of others. Copying ideas or styles is not necessarily wrong, but what role is there for acknowledgement?

Topic modelling a technique of computational text analysis provides a rough idea of content of books – without reading them – by counting words and measuring their co-occurrences. In their study, the researchers explored historical changes in literature

the proton’s secrets keep tumbling out. Most recently, a monumental data analysis published in August found that the proton contains traces of particles called charm quarks that are heavier than the proton itself.

estimate that between June 2016 and July 2022, police may have collected between roughly 919,282 and 1,206,962 DNA samples, representing between one quarter (25.1%) and one third (32.9%) of Tibet’s total population (3.66 million).

The proton is a quantum mechanical object that exists as a haze of probabilities until an experiment forces it to take a concrete form. And its forms differ drastically depending on how researchers set up their experiment

competition always requires rules, from property to contract to antitrust, that are themselves, logically speaking, limits upon competition. All of these rules in essence authorise economic coordination that is necessary to make competition work

The greed-is-good ideology comes out of a school of right-wing economics whose central tenet is “incentives matter.” Forget the high-minded rhetoric about public duty, empathy or morals — the only way to reliably motivate people is by paying them to act the way you want them to, and to take away their money when they stop

on evidence -
it's importance and -
