  • TBH if you attend 5 years at uni and don’t catch on how few professors there are to literally everyone else at the university perhaps your reasoning skills are not that great.

    I mean I did 5 years with a master in thermodynamics (physical chemistry) and my section had 20 offices. Three had a professor in them.

    Top sciencetists are is like top athlets. The same drive, dedication and forsaking other things to be best.







  • They mention Norway in the article and it’s NOT hard to find a fuel pump. Granted many petrol stations has shut down, but often at least one pump remain. And many stations has rebranded as “energy stations”.

    What bugs me with the EV market is how you need a fucking app for every fucking vendor when charging on the road (and how Tesla cornered many of the prime spots and tried shut everyone else out)

    Filling up with diesel/petrol I just tap my card at the pump and validate with pin. With EV it’s apparently “not possible”. And many of these vendors dont spend much on their crap software. Its pure lock-in.

    Scientific American points to an important fact.

    "With our latest surveys, such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) and Euclid, by my very rough estimation, we’ve taken pictures of somewhere around 100 million galaxies out of the two trillion or so estimated to exist in the entire observable universe.

    Shamir’s paradigm-shattering conclusion relies on 263 of them."

    They are discussing bias in the selection.

    “Unfortunately, this kind of extreme selection introduces many opportunities for bias to creep in. When we test a new idea in cosmology—indeed, in all of science—we work to make our conclusion as robust as possible. For example, if we were to change any of these filtering steps, from the selection of survey region to the threshold for deciding whether to include a galaxy in the analysis, our results should hold up or at least show a clear trend where the signal becomes stronger. But there isn’t enough information about such methodological checks in Shamir’s paper to make that judgment, which casts doubt on the validity of the conclusions.”







  • Perhaps people on Lemmy are to young or to American to remeber the war in Bosnia. The stuff wannabee Ante Pavelic’ did is beyond belief. And we just had a “Anniversary” for Srebrenica. People did fuck all then, and it’s hardly spoke of. While I think the monsters of 46. SS grenadier division “IDF” should face a drumhead court-marshal and be lined up and shot, Gaza will be the same in 30 years
