Been there. Done that. Impossible.

No Indian of any caliber wants to work in India. They all know about the abuse of the H1B program by American companies, and only want to work in America and send money back home.

It may be possible for that to work in the future, but not if we don't shut down this H1B abuse first.

There's no evidence presented that this is another guy. Someone just made that accusation.

It could be true. It could also be false. But how convenient is it that another Sriram Krishnan just happens to live in the Bay Area in a neighborhood with $3+ million dollar homes.

Laura hid the address on the tweet, but encouraged everyone to pull the records and check the address for themselves. However, without knowing exactly where this Sriram Krishnan lives, it would serve no purpose. It's a task best left to Trump's investigators who can actually get to the truth.

In any case, running to his friends in the Indian government and screaming racism makes me highly suspicious of his motives. I for sure don't trust him, and donating to the Harris campaign would be entirely within the realm of possibility given what I know of his character.

Not terribly accurate, even if it seems visually appealing.

The truth is the quantum computer calculates a superposition of all possible answers to a problem, which you must collapse to a single, real value in order to read it out. If you ask exactly the right question, you can make the most probable answer from your algorithm the correct answer to your question.

Not every problem can be suitably reframed for enhanced calculation on a quantum computer.

A simple example is Shor's algorithm for factoring large numbers, which works by finding a period in a pattern of data. The quantum computer will calculate a superposition of the period, 2x the period, 3x the period, etc. (Think of a vibrating string that can vibrate at a frequency plus all possible harmonics of that frequency simultaneously)

But when you try to read out the answer, it will only report one of them. However, the highest probability is that it will collapse to and report just 1x the period when reading out the answer. So if you run the program multiple times, whatever answer appears most often is the period you are trying to find.

Shor's algorithm is useful to factor large numbers or find the elliptic log, which is why all of our current public key cryptography is rendered useless when big enough quantum computers become commercially available.

The problem is with his defamation trial if he swears in. As a government official, he would need to prove actual malicious intent by those who released that report. As a private citizen, he doesn't, thus forcing them into the position of proving the allegations are true.

This is a great opportunity to expose the corruption in DC in a public court, and that could be lost if he swears back in even for a couple of days.

I don't know if this is a serious concern or not, but I don't want there to be any reason for a judge to dismiss his defamation trial.

It's just a result of the length of time that this has taken. It feels exactly like burnout for me.

After waiting for 6+ years for this, I just really don't believe anyone anymore, nor do I expect anyone to stick to a timeline. I can watch Elon posting "Go" all day long, but I don't believe that means it's happening now.

The same feeling during Covid where it was always "just 2 more weeks". A constantly receding horizon, and a numbness that results from too many false starts.

I'm past the point of being angry. I have just adopted a stoic philosophy of do what you must in order to get through the day. But otherwise, I feel no anticipation any more.

Wake me when someone is finally arrested.

He didn't say it was for resources though. I'm paraphrasing, but he said it was needed for national defense and protecting freedom. It has to be more than just a few minerals or economic policies. There has to be something strategic about it.

Does the House actually have to certify the vote, or merely state if they are contesting votes?

Without a Speaker, they clearly can not contest the vote, but that's not an issue in this case. But if they simply say nothing, do the electoral votes then get counted anyway?

Ultimately, it is the Vice President who certifies the vote. And with the rule changes that is now strictly a formality unless a proper challenge is brought. But a proper challenge could never be brought in this case.

So it seems to me Kamala would have no choice but to certify the electoral college vote, even if there was no Speaker of the House.

Whether or not Johnson turns out to be a sleeper agent, I don't know.

But on the face of it, Joe's argument makes no sense. A deeper psyop is always possible, but it's not credible as he describes it. There was no reason for Trump to have to concede to a 3rd, compromise bill if Joe's argument had merit.

Monomial 5 points ago +7 / -2

Yeah...no. It's a spin which I find unlikely. If this were true, why then give in, compromise and give them a 3rd bill which adds back in some of the things which Trump knows America doesn't want?

Why negotiate at all if this were truly a strategy? Trump would force THEM to choose a path. We're talking about the man who wrote the Art of the Deal. No, whatever this was, Trump wanted a deal, and he was forced to accept a compromise that was less than ideal. Now, the morning after defeat, people are trying to spin this as a victory.

Don't get me wrong. I like Trump. I believe in him. But I don't believe the white hats control everything. This was a loss. That sometimes happens in war. It's not the end of the world. And now we know who is truly on the side of MAGA in a crunch, and who is instead loyal to the globalist's cause.

Next time, we need to do better. A lot better. And Johnson needs to be primaried out of office for not having a spine.

This story has been reported before.

Right now, everything is only hearsay and 2nd hand speculation. Let's wait until LISTEN releases their actual findings on the pre-print server before deciding how much of this story is really true.

This genuinely could be a huge deal, but it could also be a complete nothing. If it's true, there's no need to be in a rush, as it will be extensively studied and picked apart.

Sorry. Chris Larsen, co-founder of XRP already donated millions to the Harris campaign. Ripple Labs is the very definition of a deep state enterprise. Just like Zuckerberg, this blatant attempt to curry favor with Trump is too little, too late.

Trump values integrity and loyalty. These attempts by globalists to try and buy their way into his good graces are doomed to failure. XRP is a deep state CBDC with a thin veneer of blockchain to disguise its true, centralized nature. It is not a decentralized cryptocurrency like Bitcoin.

Given that this theory is obviously false now and what we actually got was a bill completely supported by the Democrats and RINOs can we unsticky this?

While it does serve as a brutal reminder to all of us not to inject hopium into everything, or try and spin every battle against the deep state as some kind of brilliant tactical strategy, it still needs to be retired.

This is one of those things that really needs a 72 hour hold before reporting. All we have is second hand reports of a rumor at this point. It sounds promising and convincing, but until the Yale researchers at least release their unreviewed "pre-print" this is all just speculation.

So let's pick this up again when they actually release their results. According to them this will be happening "very soon". I suppose that's at least better than saying 2 weeks.

Trust me. I do hang out on several small forums with a Leftist tilt. Current events are waking up absolutely nobody.

The only thing that will wake people up is arrests and court trials. So whatever is going on right now, it better be in service of something other than waking up those who are asleep or comatose. Because that isn't happening.

The 3 most well known ones are parallel world's (what Google's researchers are biased towards), the Copenhagen interpretation, and pilot wave theory. Recently, a 4th interpretation has been gaining ground, which is simulation theory (which is really just a reformulating of the Copenhagen interpretation). Quantum computing doesn't offer any actual evidence for any of them. And honestly, I am of the school that says since our observable world doesn't correspond to any of these, that it is useless to wax philosophical about which one, if any of them, is correct. Or if "correct" even has a meaning in this context. The mathematics is identical no matter what you want to believe about its interpretation, so it is a difference which makes absolutely no difference.

If you held a gun to my head, I would probably lean towards simulation theory. That this is all just a mathematical construct being enjoyed by our ethereal souls, and the superposition which is exploited by quantum computers is simply the fundamental reality. It doesn't mean there are parallel realities. There remains just one reality which exists solely as a mathematical construct with superimposed, probabilistic outcomes until such time as the simulation needs to coalesce to an observable outcome that we, as a group of souls, collectively and individually choose.

But this is all highly metaphysical and philosophical nonsense which makes absolutely zero difference to anyone. If the Google researchers want to believe the superposition states are real parallel universes, who am I to tell them no? But it's not a thesis because it can neither be proven nor disproven. It is a personal bias, pure and simple.

The mulitverse interpretation is just one of many possible theoretical implications for how quantum probabilities work. There is no evidence for it. This is entirely personal bias on the part of the Google researcher, and is quite clearly just a click bait headline and article on the part of The Daily Mail.

I suppose the nonsensical statement and article could be strategic in order to play into a larger psyop going on. But I can't speculate on how.

Personally, I find parallel worlds the least compelling of all the interpretations physicists have come up with to explain quantum mechanics.

The issue is that he never should have been put in the position where he needed to report at all. This is why we need Trump to eliminate this kind of belligerent abuse of Americans by the Fed/IRS. Protecting your purchasing power against inflationary monetary policy of the Fed has no business being considered a taxable event.

Sorry. Can't go along with this one. The corrupt Aung San Suu Kyi was a friend of the disgusting Barack Obama and was instrumental in facilitating the human trafficking that occurred unimpeded through Myanmar during her reign.

While the Burmese military (tatmadaw) are nothing to be proud of (many of whom were equally culpable in the aforementioned travesty) it is still grotesque to try and rewrite history claiming that removing the globalist puppets from power in the coup of 2021 was anything other than an act of mercy.

The Cabal is NOT synonymous with the Myanmar military. While there may be factions of the globalist cabal present inside the military, it is merely a piece within a larger group that served humanity and did a service to humanity by removing the previous, corrupt Myanmar government.

As for the rest of it, anyone who has ever visited the Killing Fields in Cambodia..seen the skulls of the babies that were bashed against trees because bullets were deemed too expensive...nobody could ever mistake what is happening in Myanmar today with what happened during the Khmer Rouge.

I am personally offended that anyone would try and make that parallel.

There aren't "17 layers on a CPU". The number of metal/routing layers varies by foundry and the particular process technology used. In the earliest CPU's, there were only 3 layers. As technology has improved and transistor count has increased, more and more layers have been necessary to provide the necessary connectivity. If a particular process happens to use 17 layers, that is purely coincidental, as much as people hate to accept that some things really are coincidences.

If there is a larger, universal perspective as to why it just so happened to reach 17 at this exact moment in time and for this exact fab and process technology, I don't think any human or AI can answer that.
