Chordate is a sad clade.

You read the name and think: hmm, neural cords!

But then you see that his is one of its members:

Yup. That's your cousin. And it's a much closer cousin than something like arthropods, which at least have heads eyes and legs like you.

Convergent evolution is crazy!

A single hole that is used for shit, pee and fucking. Amazing.

See: angular momentum operator.

They have been masters of second sourcing things for a long time! One can ony imagine the complexity of the Intel cross licensing deals.

Like Google custom silicon, Amazon server operations are so large that with the slowdown of Moore's law, it started being worth it for them to develop custom in-house silicon to serve as a competitive advantage, not to be sold for external companies. Can you imagine the scale required to justify silicon development investment that is not sold externally!

Amazon is apparently notorious for having bought off many competitors, many of them just to kill off the competition and clear the way, not to actually reuse them.

youtu.be/tfAhTtBlb2Q?t=849 from Video "Jeff Bezos Revealed by Bloomberg (2015)" clearly shows Tim O'Reilly saying that very clearly about Bezos.Perhaps O'Reilly who is the bookselling business is not the greatest fan of Jeff. But still. My God.

It is so close that we can notice its proper motion, and its distance to us will vary significantly across a few tens of thousands of years!

He's an actor and producer apparently: www.imdb.com/name/nm3438598/

2020-so-far yes, Grover's algorithm would only effectively reduce key sizes by half:but there isn't a mathematical proof either.

Hmmm, he does not know how to spell guerilla? sic? www.quora.com/What-is-the-correct-spelling-guerilla-or-guerrilla

Note to self: if you are going to commit a crime, don't publish your plans online.

Ross Ulbricht's diaries come to mind.

That's how Russian shadow library maintainers do it, they know how to crime good old Russians. Maybe there is a good thing about having dictatorships in the world that give zero fucks about American copyright laws. There will always be some random Russian academic who will implement this and not go to jail. Maybe it's even state sponsored.
