Comment Almost like an isotopic behavior, except in tau? (Score 1) 260

" recent studies of B-meson decays involving the higher-mass tau lepton have resulted in observations that challenge lepton universality at the level of four standard deviations" So, basically the tau leptons have a behavior that is occasionally observed in roughly 0.006% of observations? Something akin to an isotopic variance, sort of? Wherein the vast majority of tau observed behave within expected criteria but a tiny percent break the model? Is that correct?

Comment Not an example of instantaneous communication? (Score 1) 42

Quantum teleportation is the even that's theoretically faster than light by way of being instant, regardless of distance, correct? Am I correct in thinking this is more of that a quantum entangled signal was transmitted in a waveform and they successful read the spin on roughly 1000 of the point resolved photons?

It seems they're contesting that the surveillance Google's operating system is conducting constitutes a non-consensual search. In the context of children being provided a resource that is data-mining their behaviors without their parents mandatory legal consent, it's a very clever point to try and burst that bubble. I think they might should win, too. What Microsoft, Google, and Apple are all doing with their operating systems to survey their users, it might be rightly argued it's crossed into the realm of an unlawful form of surveillance.

Microsoft is looking big at the augmented reality and virtual reality spaces and lacking the skills to engage that workspace could cost them big in the long run. There might be a longer game where they're using the Mobile platform as a way to advance their understanding of computing with physically mobile systems. Their current market share is floundering, sure, but the profitability expectations might be leveraged considerably further down the road than many are presuming.

You're correct in mentioning the conversation being had is useful in its own right. For example, normally pointing out that presenting a sentiment of 'what you said didn't help as much as I think it should have', which doesn't really say anything constructive in terms of how the OP may have been more helpful, isn't normally the type of comment that'd be very welcome. However, since the topic is people being helpful in forums, may have asking the OP or the public at large for elaboration on what they meant been a better use of this forums time, for example? And if you were to have instead asked such a question, is there some way you could add something that would help fill the gap you see? Also, I'm don't necessarily believe you meant it that way but I'll say what you stated seems to read as simply cynical to me. My apologies if I'm interpreting what you were attempting to get at incorrectly.

I've never been canoeing before, but I imagine there must be just a few simple heuristics you have to remember... Yes, don't fall out, and don't hit rocks.
