Can someone spell this one out for me? I can’t remember any of their names :/

I grew up in Durham region (Bowmanville specifically). This absolutely checks out. Luckily some of Bowmanville is somewhat walkable-ish (about all you can hope for in Durham), probably because of the sizeable Dutch immigrant population of old Bowmanville I’d guess?
I’ve never found a good link, and I’m not certain that I know best, but I can try to explain it to you.
First: an understanding of the Pauli exclusion principle. Often people ask “Why can’t there be 3 electrons in that orbital, there’s plenty of space?” The thing is that the electrons are completely¹ defined by just 4 numbers: spin (±½), shell (positive integer), subshell (integer from 0 to shell-1) and magnetic (integer form -subshell to +subshell). Why there can’t be more than 2 electrons in the 1st shell is that you can chose spin from (±½), shell is 1, subshell has to be 0, magnetic has to be 0. Its like asking “Why can’t there be 3 integers between 0 and 3, there’s plenty of space?” and the answer is that whatever integer you come up with will be one of the 2 already known (1, 2).
Similarly, as I understand it, the fundamental laws of physics don’t distinguish between “things” closer than 1 Planck length apart. That doesn’t necessarily mean that the universe operates on a 1 Planck length grid, just that any two “things” separated by less than a Planck length are indistinguishable from one new “thing” with different properties.
I’m fairly confident in the PEP description, the Planck length one I’m less 100% sure about, but its how I understand it at least.
¹assuming a universe comprised of only a single hydrogen atom, otherwise the states of everything else in the universe can perterb the state functions and things can get messy, but usually not enough to merge shells.
I think self hosting the proxy with the services at hobbyist scale mitigates most of the security risks. The single point of failure risk is another matter. I once had to effectively reverse-hack my services by uploading a Jenkins test job through an existing java project to regain access. Ever since then, I maintain a separate ddns address that’s just used for emergency ssh access.
Lambda@lemmy.cato Lemmy@lemmy.ml•Suggestion: An ActivityPub and Lemmy codebase reading clubEnglish15·1 year agoThat would be an excellent idea. But I feel like an even broader community should be created. Like a generic book club, but for code bases! Could even have a small handful of different code bases on the go at a time. I’d love to get to know lemmy’s, but also e.g. neovim, or even unciv :)
Maybe one day it could even start tackling Moby Dick!

Breakdown in comments.English2·1 year agoI’m also wondering what’s in the top-left. Is it a bowl of stones?
Wait! I figured it out.
You were close with C-section, but got the direction wrong. Clearly this is getting ready for urgent replacement of gizzard stones! :)

Plus that was the best image I could find describing it, but had trouble getting a clean download. Google images can suck that way. If you get me a clean link, I’d update the post.
In case anyone wants the real meanings: I am not a lawyer, read the f***ing manual, bank of america.
