New theory seeks to unite Einstein’s gravity with quantum mechanics
www.ucl.ac.uk New theory seeks to unite Einstein’s gravity with quantum mechanics

A radical theory that consistently unifies gravity and quantum mechanics while preserving Einstein’s classical concept of spacetime is announced today in two papers published simultaneously by UCL physicists.

  • It's incredible what lengths people will go to experience a short high of moral superiority.

  • Physics.
  • Ah this brings me back to my bachelor course on Quantum Physics. Once you end up with intermediate equations spanning a full sheet of paper you start questioning your life choices.

  • Multiple fatalities after two shootings in Dutch city, police say
  • Ehh, shootings even happen in Europe and coincidences too.

  • CAPTCHA: Bot vs. Human. Bot wins.
  • Well, apparently, statistically speaking he is more likely to be human according to the original post. We'll never know.

  • F1 Dutch GP promotes inclusivity and clamps down on flare use
  • With all that sand around, I'm sure people are just burying them beforehand and digging them up during the race weekend.

    Ha! As if that is ever going to be successful.

  • Java
  • AFAIK most typed languages have this behaviour.

  • Favorite Terminal Emulator
  • I always liked Terminator because of the easy splitscreening.

  • What discontinued feature do you miss from phones or other technologies?
  • Yeah I'm glad that some series (Pixel AFAIK) are now releasing slightly smaller phones, because the growth was getting ridiculous and highly impractical.

  • Let's just design every website using a table again. Or even better, frames!

  • 2023 Hungarian Grand Prix | Qualifying Session
  • I'm so happy that McLaren is keeping form. In the F1TV commentary they said that they (McLaren) were not expecting much from the Hungaroring, but Norris made it into third with Piastri keeping up in fourth!

  • 2023 Hungarian Grand Prix | Qualifying Session
  • Yeah, let's hope Ricciardo keeps on improving once he gets to know the car more!

  • Creating a password in 2023 be like
  • Way too often I've had websites complain that the input password is too complex, and I have to dial down the settings.

  • Australia baffled as unidentified mystery object washes up on beach
  • Many "space" fuel tanks have inflatable bladders inside to control the pressure and location of the fuel, especially in zero-g. Otherwise, the fuel could float away from your tank valve. It is possible that this tank has a fully or partially inflated bladder, making it much more buoyient.

  • Australia baffled as unidentified mystery object washes up on beach
  • I'm 100 percent certain that this is a spacecraft or launcher fuel tank. I've worked on reentry analyses of spacecraft fuel tanks before, and I can tell you that these very commonly survive re-entry for several reasons.

    Firstly, they are by far the largest components housed inside the vehicle's outer structure. The structure usually takes the brunt of the aerodynamic and thermal forces, protecting the tank from the largest destruction.

    Secondly, the tank itself has to handle the huge fuel pressures involved (easily going towards many hundreds of atmosphere pressures!). This obviously means that incredibly tough materials have to be used.

    Thirdly and finally, as can be seen in the pictures, their shape is symmetric, making the shape aerodynamically very unstable. This means the fuel tank has the tendency to tumble in the airstream. The tumbling continuously causes different parts of the tank to be exposed to the heat and other parts to cool down.

    Fuel tanks are the major risk during reentry to people and other stuff on the ground, perhaps together with the massive engine blocks. To minimise the chances of hitting someone or something, re-entries are nearly always aimed at the Pacific Ocean, hence them being more likely to wash ashore in Australia.

  • Ruffle: Open source Flash Player emulator written in Rust
  • Thanks for your explanation!

  • Ruffle: Open source Flash Player emulator written in Rust
  • As Flash was known for it having more holes than a Swiss cheese, how is Ruffle in terms of security?

  • A bold claim by Bostic, this adhesive works even lower than absolute zero
  • Things will definitely not move then.

  • What's a true fact that is so misleading it's borderline misinformation?
  • If I remember correctly, dark roast was also originally devised to hide bad-quality coffee beans. Nowadays it is often implied that darker roasts are better, which actually isn't necessarily the case.

  • So my neighbours got some solar panels installed...

    I'm a big fan of solar panels but the alignment could've been better!

    Anybody have an idea about what's going on?

    A number of high profile developers have confirmed what they plan on doing with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.

    In short, everybody is very surprised about the announcement of MSFS24, and they are quick to mention nothing will change for now.

    for the Reddit refugees, do you also feel a bit heartbroken?
  • Just speaking for myself, I find absolutely no interest in those platforms you mention: they do not show any really depth if you know what I mean. I love going around various sublemmies (if that's the word) and discussing these absolute niches.

  • for the Reddit refugees, do you also feel a bit heartbroken?

    For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

    Now let's hope it won't be abandonware after a couple of weeks... I'm looking forward to a good widebody in MSFS!
