  • not to be a party pooper, but as far as I know the casimir force is essentially the van der waals force. The way I understand it is that the vacuum energy method used to calculate the force on the plates is not correct, however it seems to be an approximation of the underlying driver of this effect which is the van der waals force.

    Here is a publications in Physics letter that outlines the idea.

    It's likely a light read for a physicist but a though one for a well read electrical engineer (me) but once again, I'm not a physicist so take it with a grain of salt.

  • I wouldn't call this guy a top physicist... I mean he can say what he wants but you shouldn't be listening to him. I also love that he immediately starts shilling his quantum computer book right after his statements about AI. And mind you that this guy has some real garbage takes when it comes to quantum computers. Here is a fun review if you are interested https://scottaaronson.blog/?p=7321.

    The bottom line is. You shouldn't trust this guy on anything he says expect maybe string theory which is actually his specialty. I wish that news outlets would stop asking this guy on he is such a fucking grifter.

  • I've been looking into custom roms but for a bit but it will take a while before I feel confident enough to try it. I want to try it but I'm afraid that I will get locked out certain services like banks or ms365 for work. I'll look into this Magishide tool.
