FYI. There are smartphones out there other than iPhones that also supported BLE.. They also happen to to be vastly more numerous.
Despite what you might thing, not everything revolves around Apple products.
...declaring with their infinite wisdom that this project wont work is embarrassing. Especially when 2 governments and 3 leading space agencies have closely looked at the project with positivity.
There's a big difference between the way your average programmer works than a formally objectified Software Engineer. The whole philosophy and methodologies are completely different. The latter is most certainly an Engineer.
Because firelfly is an overrated fart (FIAOF) that lasted 2 minutes while Star Trek has inspired 2 generations of scientists, engineers, philosophers and "thinkers" in general. Arguably the best overall shows ever on TV.
"I mean, you can simulate the observable, macro-scale behavior of the sun without actually figuring out the position of every quark inside it"
This is not necessarily true. A very subtle change at the quark level could cause a systematic cascade that would affect the macroscopic world.
This is how a nuclear explosion works (not quarks but a sub-atomic action triggering something on the large scale)
"What is really interesting to me is whether, being aware of the underlying nature of the universe, we're able to affect that outer domain from within. If not directly, than perhaps indirectly by means of a cosmic buffer overflow."
This has interested me too. I've come to the conclusion that whoever creates a simulation allows for the conditions to reach a point where the evolved inhabitants become aware that they are in the simulation. But for what purpose? To migrate into the parent world.. ascendance, heaven...?
Even if possible to send info. You'd still have to take that particle there first at velocities c.
It's like star gates in sci-fi, you need to travel there first to build the gate to allow FTL! lol
This is why warp drive is vastly superior:P
It's already been mentioned further up this branch that it's useful for cryptography. The most recent point is that it's useless for sending information.
"A potential weakness of the experiment, he suggested, is that an electronic system the researchers used to add randomness to their measurement may in fact be predetermined in some subtle way that is not easily detectable, meaning that the outcome might still be predetermined as Einstein believed."
"To attempt to overcome this weakness and close what they believe is a final loophole, the National Science Foundation has financed a group of physicists led by Dr. Kaiser and Alan H. Guth, also at M.I.T., to attempt an experiment that will have a better chance of ensuring the complete independence of the measurement detectors by gathering light from distant objects on different sides of the galaxy next year, and then going a step further by capturing the light from objects known as quasars near the edge of the universe in 2017 and 2018"
If the universe if predetermined, then this wont help one jot and is no less predetermined by the electronic system used in this experiment.
Smells like those NSF trying to jump on the bandwagon to me.
Could it be that entangled particles could be communicating to each other forward in time, that way we perceive the action as FTL and it does not break any rules?

duh

Because it's not 1999 and gaming is a LOT more than what it was back then.
That's the thing, it's not just a video driver and hasn't been for many years now. We have things like the internet and streaming. Stuck in 1999?

Ohhhh I missed that!! Fingers crossed it's in the "real" Trek universe we all know and love for 50 years, not abramscrap
....just don't bother, it will never get a re-run like Trek has continually enjoyed for almost 50 years in all of it's forms.
subsidiary? no partner, yes.
That's an extremely simplistic and outdated view.
Flies/ frogs and other small lifeforms have been shown to evolve on much shorter timescales than 15y
and the other is just another overhyped soundbite from Musky?
Which planet does this "world" series occur?
Well said sir. Star Wars is a joke. Intelligent people like Star Trek.. Einstein said so.
The "environment" is also in a superposition according to Penrose.
You may be convibed, but you are wrong. Read the article again.

"Think of all the QM going on throughout the universe with no-one observing it." and had not had it's wave function collapsed surely?
and Spain and England.
