Thanks for the general skepticism in the comments. Indeed, i did not go further than the inc.com article so it's hard to gauge how reliable this conclusion is. Hope I'll get to read the original article, if i get to it, back from my holidays.
Scientists led by Tobias Kippenberg at EPFL have now achieved the long-sought goal: They successfully prepared six mechanical oscillators in a collective state, observed their quantum behavior, and measured phenomena that only emerge when oscillators act as a group. The research, published in Science, marks a significant step forward for quantum technologies, opening the door to large-scale quantum systems.
Not fake news ;)
Just need to go beyond the headlines...
But yes, too much hype when people talk about quantum computers.
Mathematically, 20 million has an infinite number of divisors.
Does it? Usually, one considers integers as divisors.
I count
Sorry :)
How a little dip can completely change the odds for a prediction market...
Take heed, a characteristic single sat zap was just received.
@Scroogey's neurons are on the case...
Wow, 5 different stackers zapped this post within 5 minutes of posting this...
Did I just hit the optimal posting time (9 AM CST)?
I somehow missed this article linked in this yearly review. Putting it on my list of things I want to read ;)
Anyone might speak other languages with degrees of fluency, but they don't speak them natively
We can agree on this part :)
Wasn't sure anymore that I understood OP's intent after reading his response to my response, but seems like I did as you interpreted it in the same way.
Yes, it's all about understanding, comprehension and respect. I do speak several of the languages you speak, and I think you are pretty easy to understand when you do so. Especially because you manage to tone down your English accent.
For what it's worth, it's your native English that sounds most "comedic" to me, but that's because British English just does that to me ;)
Ha... I didn't know there was another word for voice and music.
Well, seems like I can't imagine voices or music either.
Similar articles came up here before, here one example: #631636
What do you mean by "fake accent"?
I imagine it's an attempt at trying to sound like a native (which is of course very hard to do when you're not native, hence the sometimes comedic effect) to be more understandable. I think that's a good habit.
As a side note, in Korea, Americans are notorious for standing out with their native American accent when talking Korean, while non-English natives tend to blend in slightly better when speaking Korean. A gross generalization of course.
By the way, I think Joe speaks several languages "natively" beyond English. I'm not sure though.
Nice video, I agree.
For the record,
It's pretty common in Korea to have your parents move over into the same building when grandkids join the equation. Even though an extra pair of hands would sometimes come in handy, I think both my wife and I appreciate more the fact of not having them around all the time, even though we love them.
And I second @cryotosensei that most of it is linked to my wife's mood and by how much she tolerates having my parents around. This can vary from day to day~~
I like 相见好同住难, it's an easy one to remember: "meet good live together difficult"
Bargain that adding more base units (divisibility) is not the same as a supply increase, and is less risky than the off-chain rube goldberg systems put forward by your sockpuppet startups
Could you elaborate on this point? I'm not sure how switching to millisats would resemble a supply increase. Or maybe I am misunderstanding your post. Lost in translation and all.

Yes!!!
You've waited long and hard for this one, and then I missed the opportunity to choose this option. Luckily @Scroogey was there to catch the ball~~
Many academics have been working on this too, for years. And are still doing just that. Many don't think it is impractical.
For now, it just hasn't lived up to the hype (ITER, anyone?). But again, who knows? I'll be happy if it happens. I just wouldn't bet any money on it, especially not on the timeframe set out in the linked article.
In general, nuclear fusion startups “tend to be a little aggressive in what they’re promising,” Jerry Navratil, a professor of fusion energy and plasma physics at Columbia University, told CNN last month. There’s a big difference between producing energy from fusion and having a practical system that puts power on the grid and is safe, licensed and operating, he added.
Who knows... maybe this startup knows something we don't. Still, if I had to put money in a prediction market, I would not bet on success before 2050 ;)
You can use Polynomial long division to find the factors of this quartic equation...
But guessing in this case works too, and is faster :)

@Aardvark can likely solve that one ;)
