<p>Sure, using the ambiguous wording to <i>assume</i> the cookies all have such a large activity they are unsafe no matter how they are stored is technically a solution. But it's equally possible the teacher is imagining the cookies as only slightly radioactive such that it is indeed possibly to safely store them according to the alternatives given if you choose the correct pairs.</p>

<p>Well, chat control 1.0 is about making an existing practice legal, it didn't create the practice of scanning messages for know child sexual abuse material, though I don't know how long that has been going on before the legislation in 2021 passed (but probably for several years at that point, since getting a new law trough takes a while).</p>

<p>So what happened previously is that the parliament accepted a modified text for an extension of "chat control 1.0", the conservatives didn't like that draft so they managed to get a redo of the vote on the amendments.<p>It seems this second time around amendment votes produced a final draft that the parliament as a whole found unacceptable, which apparently includes the majority of the EPP.<p>You can see the outcome of the individual amendment votes here, starting on page 15: <a href="https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/PV-10-2026-03-26-RCV_EN.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/PV-10-2026-03-...</a><p>and what the actual amendments were here: <a href="https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/LIBE-AM-784377_EN.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/LIBE-AM-784377...</a><p>It is however quite tedious to go trough this to figure out what the final draft text was that then lead to the outright rejection.<p>From the tweet, it seems tuta is implying it was the vote in favour of amendment 34 that killed the extension; I guess that's possible but certainly not obvious from the amendment text:<p>> Reports on the 1325% increase in generative AI produced child sexual material requires voluntary detection to be calibrated to distinguish artificial material and avoid diverting resources from victims in immediate danger. Such measures should prevent the revictimization of children through AI models, while ensuring that this technological development does not justify general monitoring, a relaxation of privacy standards, or the weakening of end-to-end encryption.</p>

<p>The EP has the right to make amendments to proposed legislation, its not simply a yes no vote.<p>In fact what is described as "Parliament surprisingly voted to replace blanket mass surveillance with targeted monitoring of suspects following judicial involvement" is exactly the EP voting to amend the Commission proposal on an extension of existing itermim rules with text that explicitly limits the scope.</p>

<p>I think ultimately it's a consequence of weapons manufacturers in the US is trying to make their products sound more impressive, and in general military terminology is a huge nonsensical mess.<p>Just consider that "self propelled gun" and "main battle tank" are very different things despite the first being a quite accurate description of what the latter consists of. Or the distinction between a cruise missile and a one way drone...</p>

<p>No, the theory comes from the authors knowledge, culture and inclinations, not from the fact.<p>Obviously the author has to do much work in selecting the correct bits from this baggage to get a structure that makes useful predictions, that is to say predictions that reproduces observable facts. But ultimately the theory comes <i>from the author</i>, not from the facts, it would be hard to imagine how one can come up with a theory that doesn't fit all the facts known to an author if the theory truly "emanated" from the facts in any sense strict enough to matter.</p>

<p>> During the 19th century, several experiments were performed to observe the reaction of frogs to slowly heated water. In 1869, while doing experiments searching for the location of the soul, German physiologist Friedrich Goltz demonstrated that a frog that has had its brain removed will remain in slowly heated water, but an intact frog attempted to escape the water when it reached 25 °C.<p>From wikipedia.</p>

<p>This sounds like a fun thing to do simply for the pleasing global consistency, but the price you will pay is that the physics will inevitably look weird since all our intuition is for smooth space. In this sense it's like those games that try to put you into a 4D space, where the weirdness is sort of the point.<p>Not sure what you mean with the claim that Newtonian Mechanics doesn't work in discretised space? I'm know there are plenty of codes that discretise space and solve fluid mechanical problems, and that's all Newtonian physics.<p>Of course you need a quite high resolution (compared to the voxel grid in teardown) when you discretise for it to come out like it does in reality, but if you truly want discretised physics on the same coarse scale as the voxels in teardown you can just run these methods and accept it looks weird.</p>
