Well, nothing (with nonnegative mass) can move faster than light through space. Space itself can do whatever it wants to.

And I just want to add as a physicist: The most interesting manifolds are the differentiable ones, because there you can do general relativity! But manifolds are also relevant in other, more unexpected places, like a pendulum: It moves on a submanifold of R^3 due to the constraint of the string.

1·5 months agoYou’re right, my mistake. But for example, the BMW 530e G60 does have a button to charge the battery from the engine, and it is a PHEV. So it does exist.

1·5 months agoIt depends, some use the engine to charge the battery (e.g. the Honda Civic).

World News@lemmy.world•Plug-in hybrids use three times more fuel than manufacturers claim, analysis findsEnglish
17·5 months agoI think the point is that PHEVs do not achieve the real world emissions promised by the manufacturers, which would call into doubt reliance on them to save the climate as well as tax reliefs. Particularly, company cars are historically subsidized too much, and they get even more subsidies if they are hybrids, only to then never charge them.
The fermion number conservation would be violated anyways.

Technology@lemmy.world•The Debian project is proud to release Debian 13 "Trixie", a major update that brings new features, updated components, and numerous other improvementsEnglish
3·11 months agoI used to run Debian Testing and it borked my install - never had that problem on e.g. Arch. I feel like because it’s not a rolling release as the default but explicitly for developers, it’s less stable. But that might just have been bad luck.
Also related, I had a psychology teacher with a PhD in psychology. But because in German schools, you need to teach two subjects (with the exception of the arts), he also taught physics. He was a terrible physics teacher, but a pretty good psychology one.

2·1 year agoI do understand it differently, but I don’t think I misunderstood. I think what they meant is the physicist notation I’m (as a physicist) all too familiar with:
∫ f(x) dx = ∫ dx f(x)
In this case, because f(x) is the operand and ∫ dx the operator, it’s still uniquely defined.
That reminds me of a story my bachelor’s supervisor in astrophysics told me: One of his best PhDs applied at an insurance company. They got an Excel sheet with data that they had 1 week to analyze. All the other applicants took the whole week. He just put it in Python, solved it in a few hours, and got the job.

2·1 year agoI’d say the $\int dx$ is the operator and the integrand is the operand.

Nintendo@lemmy.world•Nintendo Switch 2 developers confirm DLSS, hardware ray tracing, and moreEnglish
2·1 year agoFrom what people have gathered, the CPU calls from Switch 1 games are converted to Switch 2 calls, and the GPU calls are emulated. Shaders are probably de- and recompiled for the new GPU.
What people forget is that GPUs are generally not binary compatible between generations, even from the same brand. That’s why PCs usually take time compiling shaders. On consoles, the games distribute the compiled shaders for the console, which means it won’t work on other GPUs without emulation.
I’m not an expert on game development, so please correct me if I misunderstood something.
