Comphysic relief: arXiv vs. snarXiv
You can learn a lot from browsing the arXiv that way; I discovered Tang’s variation on a neutrino counter-nuke. Along with some papers which would be awesome if anyone managed to write them.
I was delighted to rediscover David SD’s homepage and musings, and reminded of my long-term bet with Matt Gline about the progress in semantic clustering and searching.[1]
[1] Whether or not we will have meaningful deep searching of patent/idea databases that allows classification anad clustering across all dimensions of ‘idea’, and idea diffs, in the next few decades. If we can find the original statement of the bet, and its deadline, one of us will treat the other to a meal at any restaurant of his choice.
