I think you're almost right about the high level principles, you've just forgotten that entropy scales as the log of the combinations not linearly.

So the entropy of a 128 bit key is not 2^128, it's just 128 and therefore the fundamental limit on the cost required to recover it that you're talking about is very small.

See landauer limit (which isn't quite the same thing since it's about irreversible computers which some quantum computers might not be, but gets at the idea of there being an energy cost to have information)

I believe the specifics of your thoughts about entropy of public vs private keys is also incorrect but not necessary to the core of what you're saying.

There's like two people's devices behind my router. The amount of benefit I get to hiding which device is sending traffic is pretty meaningless. And all my user devices are using privacy extensions anyway.

I don't quite understand what you're trying to prevent. Like if I have an iot device that doesn't support privacy extensions, who am I making the tracking harder for by using ipv4? Anything the device talks to already is probably tracking via the device authenticating in the first place. And anybody in the middle doesn't really learn much by knowing that a particular device is sending opaque traffic vs the house is sending opaque traffic.

Big tech tracks us because we voluntarily login to their services. And they do so mainly to sell us ads. If you don't want them tracking you, hiding IP doesn't help much. Like don't login to their services and block requests to their domains to prevent third party site integrations. If you need to use their services anyway, then you're fundamentally screwed.

Something like this or this (don't buy this one though, appears to be drop shipped or using product photos from elsewhere)? Or is that not square enough. I think the term in america is probably apron or overall dress.

I don't think the burial matters. It's not random atoms that are turned into C14. It's specifically nitrogen. And I think those interactions mainly happen in the upper atmosphere with cosmic rays. So it's the atmosphere providing the shielding.

The Wikipedia page for this explains it pretty well, especially the Physical and Chemical Details section.

I don't think it's that the plants are controlling the ratio. I think it's that more C14 is being made all the time. And it only gets mixed into plants when they are living. Specifically it looks like C14 based CO2 is made in the atmosphere and then eaten by plants.

I do perceive it as negative. I've curated my feed to be free of this kind of meme, and so it was surprising to me when it showed up on the poems community, and then even more so when it didn't seem related to the poem that was posted.

I understand that it's helpful algorithmically to post something attention grabbing, but part of why I'm here and not on reddit is to try and be part of a community small enough that it's not entirely built on attention.

I appreciate the (original?) poems that you are posting to this community!, but it's a bit frustrating when they are accompanied by an unrelated meme.

Also, if these are your poems, please tag them with [OC] like the community rules require

The vast majority of the volume of semen is made in the prostate and seminal vesicles (which are right next to the bladder), not the testes!

 

We were in upstate NY, and got extremely lucky with a hole in the clouds right around the sun at totality.

The red at the bottom was unexpected and very cool to see. It's a solar prominence
