Yes. If the blackhole is supermassive, the spaghettification wouldn't take blace before entering the event horizon. The fun fact is, that from a distant observer, the astronaut would never go across the event horizon (due to time dilatation). And by never I mean do mean never. Until the end of time the astronaut will not cross the event horizon.

The next fun fact is, that because of hawking radiation, every blackhole will eventually evaporate. This means, that the astronaut can't actually cross the event horizon. Never.

I have used this and it really works. I have been forced to work near people who talked loudly so I combined earplugs with headphones with pretty loud sea waves sounds and I was able to concentrate just as if there was nobody around.

The minimum wage may not be "tech news", however, it is stuff that matters since it affects the economy of the USA and thus the economy of the whole world. I'm not from USA but I appreciate knowing about it.

Let's take Stephen Hawking as an example. He is thought to be one of the biggest geniuses nowadays. But if you ask common public member, what did he discover, most people won't be able to say a single thing. He published many books for general public, which made him good PR, he is disabled, which is good for such image too. The media think, that he is current Albert Einstein and hence the general public does.

To be sure somebody doesn't take me wrong, I took S.H. just as an example, I'm not by any means questioning his work.

It does not. QE binds particles in such a way, that when one particle is measured, the second is bound by this measurement. For example if you measure, that one particle has +1/2 spin, the second then has -1/2 spin. This is not transmission of information - you can't force one particle to have spin +1/2 and cause the second particle to have instantly -1/2 spin.

I will answer myself. They are talking about transporting quantum information or quantum state. Quantum information is _NOT_ the same as classical information. The summary is misleading in this way.

Instant teleportation of information according to STR violates causality. Is this a really serious science? Recycling state of quantum entanglement might be possible but as far as I know, quantum entangled particles don't "transport" information.

I don't argue that mathematics is ubiquitous in sciences, human interaction, society and the rest of the universe even in its pure form. I just say, what the word means for ordinary people and that we can not force them to change the way they understand it.

Integration, sin(x), statistic, differential equations and this stuff is, what makes mathematics useful in real life. I don't argue that the very core of mathematics consists of axioms, proofs, theories and so on, but for most people mathematics is the part of "math" that is most used.

So in short, no, we can't :)

I think that Asian companies are not out of the game. They almost always use some kind of open solution for their devices, since nobody wants proprietary OS no apps for that. For now, they use Android, but they can try Ubuntu in the future too.

This is also for people. Of course the companies that own the ships traveling in that area are profiting from such protection, BUT - once again, the companies are just people, the shareholders, management, employees - those people benefit from the protection from pirates. The company as a juridical person doesn't care.

Another example would be: If I have company and the company and this company generates some profit. As long as I don't withdraw the money from my company, I can not use the money. The company can reinvest the money (before the end of fiscal year) and pay no taxes, or save the money (during the end of fiscal year) and pay the taxes. Even if the state for example by protecting its ships increases its profits, nothing changes, the money is still stuck in my company. If I want to collect my profits, the money will be taxed by income tax, otherwise my company will reinvest the money in some point in the future (inflation is the force causing this and is strong enough).

When I state it as simple as possible, income taxes are just forcing companies to reinvest their profits the same year and don't save anything for future.

It is not in vacuum it is the reality. When I create a company, the company starts to exist. Its money are not my money. When I want to use that money, I have to pay income tax. I'm the one who benefits from the things that society provides. The company does not, the company doesn't care.

I will not repeat this again. If you are going to react to my post, please try to be more specific than "your argument stinks" argument.

Company is abstract construct. Company doesn't care about anything, it is the people that are controlling it. When we say Google did this or that, it means people in Google in the name of the company did this or that. When people in Google decide to destroy it, the company won't fight back. When the company has the money, nobody benefits from that and thus there should be no tax from that money (inflation is good enough).
