Screenshot of "The Everett Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics", which contains Figure G.1, Everett's own notes on DeWitt and Graham's attempts to interpret the interpretation. He has annotated their claim that Everett's work is "too brief to be entirely satisfying" with the private rejoinder "Only to you!"

@cadey @whitequark oil is non substitutable also. It’s a commodity normally because operational capacity has met demand. Under shock, oil in A cannot sub for oil at B, so expect small impacts outside of direct customers of the gulf for 6-12months

If anyone's looking for some Christmas reading, my coworkers have put "Folding and Twisting your way to logical gates in Floquet Codes" up on the ArXiV! (ArXiV title has been recast to academicease unfortunately!) arxiv.org/abs/2512.17999
A screenshot of a figure. 3 QEC codes are depicted, as geometric tilings. The leftmost code is comprised of 3 colours of hexagons. A green line rises from the bottom left of the tiling to the top right, depicting a fold line and a symmetry of the code. In the second code, the hexagons are dramatically distorted on horizontal lines, connecting the hexagons from each row to the hexagons one to the right on the row below. The third figure depicts an octagon-triangle regular tiling, with red octagons and blue or green triangles.

Figure 1: Logical-gate techniques adapted and applied to Floquet codes. (a) In Section 3, we extendthe concept of fold-transversal logical gates to Floquet  codes, and show how this can be utilised to implement logical Hadamard and S gates. (b) In Section 4, we show how distortion of the Floquet code lattice can be used to implement CNOT gates via Dehn twists. (c) In Section 6, we investigate how to implement logical gates on the embedded stabiliser codes.

Twitter post from @RepNancyMace
We know Charlie Kirk would want us to pray for
such an evil, and lost individual like Tyler
Robinson to find Jesus Christ.
We will try to do the same.
Excerpt from Trans/Rad/Fem by Talia Bhatt

More broadly, if misogyny is the force that
elevates men at the expense of women, then
transmisogyny is the complementary force that
makes examples out of those who dare to turn their
backs on the resulting gendered rewards.
Transmisogyny is the reminder, the warning, the
deterrent: “Be the man you were meant to be, or
else.”
