From my own research. Solution to CH (Continuum Hypothesis) involves taking a second look at the ZFC axioms. ZFC is overconstrained by trying to rule out paradoxes like Russell's paradox. I thought I should post this before AI comes in + solves it so I can potentially win an inb4

Majority IQ <=100 & they vote. To be great, a country needs its elite Einsteins. German scientists fleeing Hitler helped win WW2: Frisch & Peierls were the 1st to show atom bomb possible. US scientists are now world’s elite. Canada, UK, EU, etc should welcome them with open arms.

I just noticed "foreach" on npm is controlled by a single maintainer. I also noticed they let their domain expire, so I bought it before someone else did. I now control "foreach" on NPM, and the 36826 projects that depend on it.

I just love diving into the strangest, coolest features of our universe. Case in point: the gravitational memory effect. My newest for @QuantaMagazine
General relativity implies that gravitational waves should permanently change the structure of space-time. These cosmic scars would reveal secrets of cosmic symmetries and offer a possible solution to the black hole information paradox. @mccornut reports: quantamagazine.org/gravitati…
