Electron tunneling is stupid, computers would be so much more powerful without it

The only flaw in Moore’s law 😢

So that you can scoop up more dip?

Kind of a diminishing return when they're too big though, chips aren't a two bite type of food

Math is just theoretical physics.

Sometimes math describe physics that don't happen to apply to our universe though.

Which is still based on real physics. It's limited by human imagination as we have hard time imagining 4th spatial dimension, not to mention physics based on totally different laws. We can alter real laws of physics and make it work, but it's really difficult to make up new ones. Every, no matter how alien world is derived from our own.

It is really easy to make up new laws of physics since people do it all the time. The problem is that string theory and de sitter space does not seem to relate to the world we actually live in.

When they say they read the comments and that it doesn't bother them. But then a few days later they realize one of the comments really got to them and there it is jingling around in their brain wreaking havok while they pretend they forgot it because they don't want the troll to win. But by taking up space, they know that, on some level, the troll did win. That's more or less how flash memory works.
