just realized that schild's ladder is the solution to langoliers. the novo-vacuum and the langoliers describe one and the same problem; so does the "twisted" episode from voyager season 2 (and many more): a field is going to go through us, and it will certainly be deadly.
but the responses are different:
langoliers: get the fuck out
twisted: do nothing, it will be fine
schild's ladder: build a compatibility layer, it will be fine

because of isomorphism, a story about the universe also works as an inverse story about the self.
take the spatial image of the self within the universe, that's a mere R3.
center the approximate position of the self at origin.
now perform a spherical inversion.
the farthest reaches of the universe are now in the center, while an infinity of self surrounds it.
feel your power.
... and that's how you trick esoterical types into learning math

... theoretically. you're thinking you're doing a good thing and next thing you know there's a "emmy's holistic math store" selling spherical inversion skin cream and thinking cap tetrahedra.
and people will be like "math is so annoying, anyone can do it now"

@lritter i want emmy's holistic math store to open up in my neighborhood so bad now

@aeva ngl, it would be a reason to travel for me.

Anche l'Italia sarebbe contraria all'uso degli asset russi per finanziare l'Ucraina. Il Piano B sarebbe emissione di debito comune, il che mi pare piuttosto problematico. Ad ora manca la minoranza di blocco

@ALFA
ho googlato per sapere che roba è #whamageddon e poi ho cercato Last Christmas perché non ne avevo mai sentito parlare.
Certo che è una cagata micidiale, peggio dei cugini di campagna. È la prima e ultima volta che perdo :-D

@shoofle now days if a friend is into a TV show they go "YOU NEED TO WATCH [SHOW] IT STARTS SLOW JUST BINGE IT FOR THREE SEASONS" and I ask how to watch show and they say "ITS ON [RENT SEEKING SUBSCRIPTION WEBSITE]" and I lose interest.
When I was in school, if a friend wanted me to watch a show, they showed up to class with a stack of like nine CDs. That's how I watched all of cowboy bebop, all of full metal alchemist, and random episodes of ranma 1/2 and chobits.

@shoofle jk. I have a soft spot for cassettes, but I only have a few. Floppy disks confer immense satisfaction. CDs are pretty. CD roms w/ printed labels that have a subtle texture from dithering are a favorite. I love cartridge based game media, though lately my gameboy games have been breaking my heart as their batteries die.
However, I think at the top of the list is old CD RWs with hand written labels.

@gian_d_gian è sicuramente una correlazione spuria, come si usa dire nelle scienze della vita: "consequenzialità non significa necessariamente correlazione".
Ma se schiatta è una buona cosa.

@jonikorpi sometimes it's just three bugs, and sometimes it turns out it was four bugs and one "feature"
