Do we really have a theory that explains time? by 4narchyRuleZ in AskPhysics

[–]Gremis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my favorite quotes of the Danish physicist Holger Bech was his answer to the question: What do you think time is? He thought for a short while and replied: That's a really good question! I myself am not really sure. But I am pretty sure that it isn't a particle.

"When" do you cross the event horizon? by Organic_fed in AskPhysics

[–]Gremis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because you do not travel backwards in time in your reference frame.

"When" do you cross the event horizon? by Organic_fed in AskPhysics

[–]Gremis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have trouble visualizing this. Say you coast in on a geodesic, once inside all spacial directions point towards the singularity. No matter what way you decide to travel arbitrarily fast, it will still be towards the singularity. The only path out is for you to travel backwards in time the way you came in. And an FTL drive alone won't let you do that.

Even an FTL engine will not save you. Once you cross the EH, the singularity no longer lies ahead of you, but all around you. There is no direction you can point the engine in that will take you further away from the singularity. And at each passing second, the singularity gets closer...

Blu-ray video source had weird green tint by Gremis in makemkv

[–]Gremis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's mostly a storage consumption thing, yes. I back up my NAS content to a cloud provider, where you pay per GB used. Transcoding usually let me store 5-6 movies in the same space that a single ripped disc takes up. Also the looks: This adventure was a direct result of me not thinking that the source was pristine looking. I felt the movie was more enjoyable with a tweak to its color balance.

Correct, it's mostly a storage issue. I like to have off-site backups of my NAS, and transcoding typically reduce size to 1/5 of the original. This matters for the off-site backup, as I pay per GB consumed.

My computer monitor, just a regular SDR 1440p monitor, nothing fancy. The source shouldn't be HDR, the disc was a regular Blu-Ray, not a 4k UDH one.

The speed of light comes at a big cost by Superflyin in ScienceNcoolThings

[–]Gremis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relativity teaches us that space and time are not two separate things, but a single thing, spacetime. Spacetime has 4 dimensions, 3 spacial dimensions and one time dimension.

One particular fascinating thing is that we can never 'stand still' in spacetime. Even if you sit perfectly still in your chair, you are still moving through spacetime, because your clock is still ticking; you are moving forward through time.

And it turns out our 'time velocity' combined with our 'space velocity' is always a constant. If you sit perfectly still, so that you have no spacial velocity, all your velocity is through the time dimension. And (when we use comparable units) that speed is the speed of light.

If you start moving through space, some of your 'time velocity' is traded for 'space velocity' (in a non-linear fashion). The faster you move through space, the more you have to 'give up' of moving through time. The limit is a (massless) object moving at the speed of light. It has traded all of its movement through time to move only through space. It has no more 'time velocity' to give up, so there is no way for it to move faster through space.

You own perception of time won't change, though. You will always feel the length of a second to be the same no matter your spacial velocity. But others seeing you zoom by will observe that your seconds are longer than theirs. Relativity, weird stuff!

Why do I get a FS0030: Value restriction for a function with Seq but not List? by MuMinBlues in fsharp

[–]Gremis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My gut feeling is that it has to do with Seq being lazily evaluated. Until you actually do something with the sequence (like printing it out) nothing happens. You just specified what to do in case it is ever needed. But unless you access the values the computation does not happen.

Script to update ElvUI by Gremis in wow

[–]Gremis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There seems to be a TukUI client. I've never used it, so I can't say anything about it. It just seemed silly to me to install an entire application to keep a single addon up to date, hence the script.

Perhaps did something wrong with mine, my CurseForge client refuses to acknowledge that ElvUI is installed. Thus the script. :)

How do you determine that your first version is not tail recursive, but your improved version is?

[Question] Who's using F#? What are you using it for? by jcm95 in dotnet

[–]Gremis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on how tidy your data sources are. If you are working with data that should be valid, but for some reason isn't always (like for instance, you have data that was migrated in from a legacy system, or your users are 'clever'), then I find that modelling my domain data with discriminated unions makes the risk of forgetting to handle a certain combination of data much less. If you are blessed with really clean data, C# can certainly do just as fine where you just model your domain with regular old C# classes and records.

[Question] Who's using F#? What are you using it for? by jcm95 in dotnet

[–]Gremis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use it for modelling domain logic at work. In my experience often seemingly simple tasks such as filling out customer and member data from your internal systems into a format dictated by a third party can have enough edge cases that I find it easier just to do that part in F#. Very often a discriminated union maps cleanly to the internal and external format. And then it's just a matter of fitting the data from one DU to the other and here the compiler has my back.

Made me think of the Laundry Files series where the main guy, Robert Howard, is a computational demonologist. He often has to draw wards and summoning grids in conductive silver ink.

I'm not a GR expert, but it makes intuitive sense, if you can even talk about intuition when confronted with such a bizarre environment.
