I called to tell them my cat had died, and it really cheered me up when they told me that the cat was alive as long as I didn't look at it.
"Is this Schrödinger ?" I asked.
Another voice came on the line, then, and told me that Schrödinger was dead now, since I had asked.
I hope to get the hang of super-position in at least one possible future because I really love my cat, and I feel really bad about killing Schrödinger.

That is incredibly deep.
In fact, I think it explains a lot about society today. As long as we ignore our problems, they aren't really there... maybe if we face reality, things will get better.

Good luck.

"Face reality" ... mmmm ... I've been running from that my hole life.
One thing I find very satisfying in the Thai language is that the word for "mirror," กระจก "ga-joke," rhymes with the word for "liar," โกหก "go-hoke" !
Have you noticed that the more you comment your code, the more bugs find you ?

That's the whole point Schrodinger was trying to make. According to the Copenhagen interpretation of Quantum Mechanics, if you don't look at it, reality isn't really there at least not the way we think of reality.

Illegal Steriod dealers use government lab to market drugs[^]
Send 'em in, use the results to prove your drugs are good to the punters! OK, it's "only" steroids (which are a class C in the UK, chaps and chapesses, so don't take them unless prescribed) but how long before you get dealers with "kitemark" quality branding for cocaine?

Quality assured when you're high as a kitemark....

Obviously they are good at marketing and have excellent business sense, why not make use of a free government service when you have got a chance? We get to pay enough taxes so lets enjoy a bit of return every now and again.

Now that the exploit is known, there's a very high probability that the memory leaked will just contain the heartbeat requests data of everyone else trying to hack the system... per adua ad scarier, as they say in black hat land.

I saw an advert the other day ,can't remember the site, and it said something along the lines of "Heartbleep- Ensure you are protected now" As if you are going to trust a company that can't even get the name right.

I was reading the latest XKCD What If? OTD[^] and made a big mistake: I followed teh first link.
Took me here: http://www.timecube.com/[^]
Now, I know t'interweb is full of loonies, and I know that many of them are certifiable, and I know that some of them come here.
But...if you wrote that site, please, let me know who you are - because you have an appointment with the Men with the Special Jacket and a bouncy walled room...
How does anyone that disassociated from reality function sufficiently in society to be able to create a website, even that bad a web site?

For a start I'm on a tablet, I had to hold it at arms length to read the bloody thing.

Well, pot is legal in some American states, so I guess that will work wonders?

hey, don't blame that on pot. it doesn't cause THAT much brain damage.

It's not THAT bad... If you zoom out as much as you can the text is getting near a size that doesn't strain the eyes THAT much. And you don't see that horrible background image anymore either
Besides, what is the text about? I don't understand anything in it... (maybe it's the lack of verbs in it, maybe it's just BS, I don't know..)

That's so insane I just don't even understand it.
So I looked it up on wikipedia[^] .. I still don't understand wtf he's trying to say.
In a single rotation of the Earth sphere, each Time corner point rotates through the other 3-corner Time points, thus creating 16 corners, 96 hours and 4-simultaneous 24-hour Days within a single rotation of Earth

Makes two of us - and I think it's probably a good sign not to understand a word of it...

There is some twisted logic in that. But mostly it is just babble.

It does make sense if you yourself lived in the 19th dimension. It's so much easier to see from that perspective.

No... entities in 19th dimension live beyond so ordinary things like sense, understanding and perspective.
