@Sid I'm waiting for something to cool before I continue working on it

Emilio Pisanty

@Secret reliable sources tell me that the modern equivalent of Cell is Cell.

John Rennie

@EmilioPisanty it seems a reasonable question now. Trying to calculate the effect of anisotropies on the geometry of the universe is an active area of research. It's just flipping hard to do! :-)

Emilio Pisanty

@JohnRennie the GR part bugs me

I'm also not sure to what extent this question falls along the lines of "what would happen if we got some radical new results that contradicted much of known physics but which I'm only going to describe in the vaguest of terms", which is rather too speculative and too broad for our format. Would a feature measurement of large anisotropies require a re-think of GR, or just the cosmological model? ─ well, that would depend on the details of that measurement, wouldn't it? So there's no real way to tell. — Emilio Pisanty 2 mins ago

pretty mcuh

John Rennie

@EmilioPisanty He clearly means will the solutions currently obtained from GR still be applicable. I don't think he's suggesting GR itself no longer applies.

Emilio Pisanty

4:32 PM

@JohnRennie I'm not so sure

if so, the wording could use some sharpening

there's a good deal of way between "the current best-bet solutions" to "Will general relativity still be predictable"

@JohnR: I'm making pasta today! :-) ...some version of it.

John Rennie

How was the pasta?

user228700

4:42 PM

Awesome!

user228700

It was so darn tasty that I couldn't even pause to take a picture of it to show you!

John Rennie

I'm very fond of pasta, particularly with a very rich sauce i.e. lots of cream and/or butter.

user228700

You wouldn't have enjoyed mine very much, then; it was quite dry...

John Rennie

So how did you prepare it?

user228700

Well!

user228700

4:45 PM

I sauteed finely chopped pieces of garlic, cumin seeds, chopped up capsicum, carrots and tomatoes in coconut oil.

John Rennie

Sounds good so far ... :-)

user228700

To that I added a few pinches of garam masala, turmeric powder, one cup of grated cheese, tomato sauce and salt.

user228700

Mix mix mix and voila.

John Rennie

Whenever I've made pasta with spices like garam masala, coriander, cumin, tumeric, etc I've never been entirely convinced they worked well.

user228700

Oops, I forgot to mention that I added the pasta as well :-P

John Rennie

4:49 PM

For me somehow pasta doesn't really go with the sorts of spices used in Indian cooking.

I do like pasta with capsium and/or chilli peppers.

user228700

@JohnRennie It's the only thing we have at home and because I'm used to this taste, I enjoyed it nevertheless. I'm sure though, that had I used better, more suitable ingredients, the result would've been more close to what most people think of when they think of pasta.

user228700

Oh, I also added a few chilli flakes.

John Rennie

I'm just not sure about the other spices.

Abcd

@JohnRennie Just out of curiosity : Is that you in your profile pic?

John Rennie

@Abcd Yes.

But that picture is over 20 years old. I have lost the face fuzz and gained wrinkles since then.

@JohnRennie Cool! You resemble a physicist.

AccidentalFourierTransform

@JohnRennie out of curiosity, how many times have you been asked that question? :-P

user228700

John Rennie

Not that many. Half a dozen times - something like that.

@Abcd ironic really since at that time I was working as a physical chemist not a physicist :-)

Abcd

@JohnRennie Oh. So your chemistry must be strong too.

John Rennie

@Kaumudi.H I'm sure it's mostly a matter of what I'm used to, but I'm so used to those spices with rice based dishes that they seem wrong with pasta.

user228700

4:53 PM

Yes, yes, that's understandable :-)

user228700

At least I used garlic this time!

John Rennie

What I would have done is left out the garam masala, cumin and tumeric and put in some cream.

Or butter (or ghee) if you don't have cream.

AccidentalFourierTransform

no dairy please

John Rennie

Garlic and capsicum and chilli flakes plus cream would make a lovely sauce for the pasta.

Then sprinkle on the cheese right at the end.

And maybe pop it under the grill for a minute or two to brown the cheese.

user228700

I have neither cream nor a grill at home. And both are too expensive to buy for one meal, one more than the other :-P

John Rennie

The cranberries are quite tart and they go very well with the cheese.

Sid

(Unless it is garlic paste)

user228700

@JohnRennie Dried cranberries huh? Yeah, too expensive :-P

John Rennie

Any dried fruit would probably work. Raisins?

Worth a try though they might be a bit too sweet and not tart enough.

Dried mango is very popular in the UK ...

user228700

Oh, wow, I see.

John Rennie

This for example

Secret

> Pergamon also branched into social sciences and psychology. A series of journals prefixed “Computers and” suggest that Maxwell spotted the growing importance of digital technology. “It was endless,” Peter Ashby told me. “Oxford Polytechnic [now Oxford Brookes University] started a department of hospitality with a chef. We had to go find out who the head of the department was, make him start a journal. And boom – International Journal of Hospitality Management.”

What?

user228700

@JohnRennie Nice. We have a sweet made from dried mangoes. I forget what it's called...

Secret

> Scientists occasionally questioned the fairness of this hugely profitable business to which they supplied their work for free, but it was university librarians who first realised the trap in the market Maxwell had created. The librarians used university funds to buy journals on behalf of scientists. Maxwell was well aware of this. “Scientists are not as price-conscious as other professionals, mainly because they are not spending their own money,” he told his publication Global Business in a 1988

I am starting to think university need to make business courses mandatory for science degrees

user228700

5:21 PM

Nope, not that, sorry.

Secret

> From a business perspective, it was a total victory for Maxwell. Libraries were a captive market, and journals had improbably installed themselves as the gatekeepers of scientific prestige – meaning that scientists couldn’t simply abandon them if a new method of sharing results came along. “Were we not so naive, we would long ago have recognised our true position: that we are sitting on top of fat piles of money which clever people on all sides are trying to transfer on to their piles

user228700

Aam tikki?

Secret

> Many former Pergamon employees separately told me that they knew it was all over for Maxwell when he made the Elsevier deal, because Pergamon was the company he truly loved. Later that year, he became mired in a series of scandals over his mounting debts, shady accounting practices, and an explosive accusation by the American journalist Seymour Hersh that he was an Israeli spy with links to arms traders. On 5 November 1991, Maxwell was found drowned off his yacht in the Canary Islands.

This is one classic example why karma, even if it exists, does not work, even if it did strike its intended target

The issue is not the evil doer, the issue is the influence they left behind

Karma knows how to get those who deserved to be punished, to be punished, but it, as far we know, completely forgot the other side of this equation: The influence

John Rennie

@Kaumudi.H that looks very like a sweet called kamardine made from dried apricots that i remember from my childhood

Replace apricot by mango and it would be the same.

user228700

Oooh, nice :-)

Secret

5:25 PM

I have yet to heard of any case of karma that not only strike down the immoral person, but also the influence he/she created that will screw up the world for centuries to come

> By that time, Maxwell was long gone, but the business he had started continued to thrive in new hands, reaching new levels of profit and global power over the coming decades.

and then comes Eisiver...

Sid

@Secret Karma strikes down the person not the effect of the person

Secret

that's why it is completely missing the point, often it is the influence that is more damaging, not the person itself

WHat's tomorrow?

user228700

Thanks! :-) I'll let u know as soon as possible.

Secret

While yes the person is indeed the source, often the influence outgrown the person as time progressed.

Take Thomas Midgley Jr. as example, he producing tetraethyl lead despite knowing the poisonous effect of lead have lead to a lot of deformed babies in decades to come

> At the time of the merger, Charkin, the former Macmillan CEO, recalls advising Pierre Vinken, the CEO of Elsevier, that Pergamon was a mature business, and that Elsevier had overpaid for it. But Vinken had no doubts, Charkin recalled: “He said, ‘You have no idea how profitable these journals are once you stop doing anything. When you’re building a journal, you spend time getting good editorial boards, you treat them well, you give them dinners. Then you market the thing and your salespeople go out there to sell subscriptions,

Pergamon might be able to still excuse itself, but what Elsiver did here (back at those times?) is absolute disregard of integrity of scinece

Noe please excuse I need to post the next 4 paragraphs together verbatim, cause it is important to my next point:

> By 1994, three years after acquiring Pergamon, Elsevier had raised its prices by 50%. Universities complained that their budgets were stretched to breaking point – the US-based Publishers Weekly reported librarians referring to a “doomsday machine” in their industry – and, for the first time, they began cancelling subscriptions to less popular journals.

Abcd

Why is the velocity zero at the max height in projectile motion?

Secret

> At the time, Elsevier’s behaviour seemed suicidal. It was angering its customers just as the internet was arriving to offer them a free alternative. A 1995 Forbes article described scientists sharing results over early web servers, and asked if Elsevier was to be “The Internet’s First Victim”. But, as always, the publishers understood the market better than the academics.

> In 1998, Elsevier rolled out its plan for the internet age, which would come to be called “The Big Deal”. It offered electronic access to bundles of hundreds of journals at a time: a university would pay a set fee each year – according to a report based on freedom of information requests, Cornell University’s 2009 tab was just short of $2m – and any student or professor could download any journal they wanted through Elsevier’s website. Universities signed up en masse.

> Those predicting Elsevier’s downfall had assumed scientists experimenting with sharing their work for free online could slowly outcompete Elsevier’s titles by replacing them one at a time. In response, Elsevier created a switch that fused Maxwell’s thousands of tiny monopolies into one so large that, like a basic resource – say water, or power – it was impossible for universities to do without. Pay, and the scientific lights stayed on, but refuse, and up to a quarter of the scientific literature would go dark at any one institution.

I think what irresponsible business are good at, is hoarding essential resources and creating financial traps

and this is where we are mostly before the rise of the open access and arxiv

> “Despite my giving sermons all over the world on this topic, it seems journals hold sway even more prominently than before,” Randy Schekman told me. It is that influence, more than the profits that drove the system’s expansion, that most frustrates scientists today.

@Abcd write down the equation of motion for the vertical component of the projectile motion, and you should notice that gravity, which is pointing downwards, decellerates the upward velocity until it goes to zero and then accelerate it downwards

> Elsevier says its primary goal is to facilitate the work of scientists and other researchers. An Elsevier rep noted that the company received 1.5m article submissions last year, and published 420,000; 14 million scientists entrust Elsevier to publish their results, and 800,000 scientists donate their time to help them with editing and peer-review. “We help researchers be more productive and efficient,” Alicia Wise, senior vice president of global strategic networks, told me.
“And that’s a win for research institutions, and for research funders like governments.”

but you need to select good editors, and the price need to be reasonable. How is euro 1000(forgot?) reasonable?

> On the question of why so many scientists are so critical of journal publishers, Tom Reller, vice president of corporate relations at Elsevier, said: “It’s not for us to talk about other people’s motivations. We look at the numbers [of scientists who trust their results to Elsevier] and that suggests we are doing a good job.” Asked about criticisms of Elsevier’s business model,
Reller said in an email that these criticisms overlooked “all the things that publishers do to add value – above and beyond the contributions that public-sector funding brings”. That, he said, is what they were cha…

But numbers mean NOTHING. Being a scalar, there are many ways to produce the exact same number

> In a sense, it is not any one publisher’s fault that the scientific world seems to bend to the industry’s gravitational pull. When governments including those of China and Mexico offer financial bonuses for publishing in high-impact journals, they are not responding to a demand by any specific publisher, but following the rewards of an enormously complex system that has to accommodate the utopian ideals of science with the commercial goals of the publishers that dominate it.

Abcd

5:42 PM

@Secret Okay. TY

Secret

I guess that taught us one thing: If there is a reward offered, think carefully whether it is intwined with some complicated system in the background

> Since the early 2000s, scientists have championed an alternative to subscription publishing called “open access”. This solves the difficulty of balancing scientific and commercial imperatives by simply removing the commercial element. In practice, this usually takes the form of online journals, to which scientists pay an upfront free to cover editing costs, which then ensure the work is available free to access for anyone in perpetuity.
But despite the backing of some of the biggest funding agencies in the world, including the Gates Foundation and the Wellcome Trust, only about a quarter …

And then the open access movement begins

> Whatever the fate of Sci-Hub, it seems that frustration with the current system is growing. But history shows that betting against science publishers is a risky move.

@BernardoMeurer I use Apple Music like a real Unger

@BernardoMeurer these computer parts are taking a long time to get here :(

@0celo7 Until a month ago I didn't own a device that could use Apple Music

I like that with spotify my phone can be connected to my sound system and I cna change tracks from the computer
