I think I once read that when the metric system was first defined during the French Revolution, they also tried to use a decimal system for time, but that was quickly abandoned.

Fascinating. I heard something similar with particle pollution in big cities.

My understanding is that they also need low thermal noise to ensure pure states. They cool much below the superconduction threshold temperature (eg typically 20 mK). So I am not sure that this would be useful for quantum computers at the moment. Magnetic field productions such as that in MRI requires high current, so that depends on the maximum current that this material can sustain before that breaks superconductivity. So it could perhaps turn out useful or totally useless. Hard to say at the moment.

I like the Password for Nextcloud app. I self-host mine, but I think there might be Nextcloud instances that you can access. It is encrypted, and has an app for smartphones.

Yes ! This would also be useful on Mastodon.

Do we know that this is the one and only domain that they will use when and if they actually enable federation ?

How do you forward Whatsapp to matrix? Is it two-way?

Very interesting read. Thanks for sharing. I’m curious: have you considered [matrix] nowadays?
