We got a lot of support from the audience & in the comments after the conference, but nothing but friction from OpenSats. The audience was literally cheering at one point! Odd because OpenSats has funded many projects that have almost no fans.

It’s painful working so hard just to be spat in the face by people you thought were your friends. 👁️

they are racing to the same demise as previous platforms.

Most people *dont* understand that its only reading from a off-protocol server, the relay list is super deceptive, i’m also tired of explaining this to people and people saying im making it up. I’m talking about *facts about how things actually work*. its important for people to know this so that they can make informed decisions. Its not really fair to compare a real nostr clients to a client-single-server model, they are completely different systems with different properties and security models. Can we not talk about this? Noone cares? Ok great, im talking to people who do.

Using this, the scientists captured several minutes of the dynamic interplay between RNA polymerase and the ribosome. For the first time ever, they could look through a microscope and simultaneously watch transcription and translation in action.

Predictably, given the history of studies linking these signaling systems to reward learning, blocking both dopamine and serotonin signaling made it impossible for mice to link sound and light cues with sugary reward. More surprisingly, restoring either dopamine or serotonin signaling on its own was not enough to allow the animals to learn again. Only with both systems online could animals successfully use the cues to predict the arrival of a reward.

Sure, Bluesky’s hosting model means you don’t get the relay-redundancy that sets nostr’s censorship resistance apart, but that’s not all that hard to add in the future

It’s nice that there is some effort in law to reduce censorship, but it’s much cleaner to just enforce it in the design of a protocol itself. Don’t have to worry about the day to day changes in law and corruption.

Previous observations of UGC 2885 have found that it has an undisturbed spiral structure, which is unexpected for such a large and massive object. In particular, this galaxy showcases a near-perfect structure of the spiral arms and disk, and has no tidal tails. Moreover, contrary to other massive spiral galaxies, UGC 2885 has a relatively low star-formation rate—of about 2.47 solar masses per year. These unusual properties of UGC 2885 raise questions regarding its evolution

Because the flux entering a given volume is identical to that leaving the adjacent volume, these methods are conservative. Another advantage of the finite volume method is that it is easily formulated to allow for unstructured meshes. The method is used in many computational fluid dynamics packages. "Finite volume" refers to the small volume surrounding each node point on a mesh.

The anthropic principle is an argument about the reason the fine-structure constant has the value it does: stable matter, and therefore life and intelligent beings, could not exist if its value were very different.

Today, we have no explanation for the origins of this constant. Indeed, we have no theoretical explanation for its existence at all. We simply measure it in experiments and then plug the measured value into our equations to make other predictions. Someday, a theory of everything — a complete and unified theory of physics — might explain the existence of the fine-structure constant and other constants like it. Unfortunately, we don't have a theory of everything, so we're stuck shrugging our shoulders.

The introduction of a constant wasn't all that new or exciting at the time. After all, physics equations throughout history have involved random constants that express the strengths of various relationships. Isaac Newton's formula for universal gravitation had a constant, called G, that represents the fundamental strength of the gravitational interaction. The speed of light, c, tells us about the relationship between electric and magnetic fields. The spring constant, k, tells us how stiff a particular spring is. And so on. But there was something different in Sommerfeld's little constant: It didn't have units. There are no dimensions or unit system that the value of the number depends on. The other constants in physics aren't like this. The actual value of the speed of light, for example, doesn't really matter, because that number depends on other numbers. Your choice of units (meters per second, miles per hour or leagues per fortnight?) and the definitions of those units (exactly how long is a "meter" going to be?) matter; if you change any of those, the value of the constant changes along with it. But that's not true for the fine-structure constant. You can have whatever unit system you want and whatever method of organizing the universe as you wish, and that number will be precisely the same. If you were to meet an alien from a distant star system, you'd have a pretty hard time communicating the value of the speed of light. Once you nailed down how we express our numbers, you would then have to define things like meters and seconds.  But the fine structure constant? You could just spit it out, and they would understand it (as long as they count numbers the same way as we do).
