Very interesting example with the insurance but it was your second idea that really brought it home for me. Thanks for elaborating!

Interesting! Do you have any guesses as to what sort of applications partition identities might see?

Very interesting read despite not knowing any advanced maths.

So my question(s) to mathematicians is: What does knowing these connections do for the field? What kind of things will this lead to? Feel free to speculate or give examples of other seemingly-small math discoveries that led to modern technology!

I don’t mean that dismissively, I just don’t understand why this is so important because the implications are beyond my skillset

So wholesome!

Every vehicle I’ve owned: black, tan, red, black, black.

The only way I’d ever get another colorful car is if I won the lottery it was another janky 90s Wrangler. I do not want to stand out on the road

It’s $24.99 for the Blu-ray…that you keep forever…

I did it twice in the early days of reddit and didn’t get a gift the second year so I’m done with Secret Santa with strangers forever lol

Auto doors and single tile horses are my must-have mods

Turn off your computer, move to a cave in the mountains, and abandon society.

A bit extreme but there is nothing you can do to stop your messages from appearing on Windows machines except not sending them to anyone who might view them on Windows machines…which will definitely be nearly impossible in 2024

Hadn’t heard of this before but it looks pretty good

Being an evil person doesn’t mean you’re wrong about everything just like being a good person doesn’t mean you’re right about everything

Uh…thanks, modders…?

I think lawyers actually charge per 15 minutes

Not when you have a video matrix and 14 zones of audio all at a central rack!

Had a client once in a high rise condo who NEEDED his TV in a weird spot and to get data and video to it, we had to hire someone to cut a 30’ long, 3" wide, and 1/2" deep channel across the concrete ceiling. Insane amount of work for such little benefit.

The building wouldn’t let them cut any deeper so we had to GLUE high strength cat6 down it and cover it with some special mud. Also, it was a 75" TV hung off a single-stud, single-arm articulating mount. He had to sign a waiver for that one

I really liked Tales From The Loop, too

You rock lol

Kind of a useless image since it doesn’t help visualize anything really. I can’t even think of a format that it world make sense on since those surveyed answered yes to multiple things

Maybe… I’ve heard some absolutely awful soundbars. They trade sound quality for volume

Somewhat related: I think the Sony and Samsung ones are an upgrade but that’s a low bar and they sound like shit for the price.

I haven’t heard on all, but the Sonos Arc/Beam/Playbar are the only (all-in-one) soundbars I’ve heard that I would say sound great.

Funny but what does this have to do with US authoritarianism? Why post it here
