“This is the most complicated thing that you could possibly imagine,” said Mike Williams, a physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
“In fact, you can’t even imagine how complicated it is.”
The proton is a quantum mechanical object that exists as a haze of probabilities until an experiment forces it to take a concrete form.
And its forms differ drastically depending on how researchers set up their experiment.
Connecting the particle’s many faces has …

Inside the Proton, the ‘Most Complicated Thing’ Imaginable
The positively charged particle at the heart of the atom is an object of unspeakable complexity, one that changes its appearance depending on how it is probed. We’ve attempted to connect the proton’s many faces to form the most complete picture yet.

Making the case that Cargo features could be improved to alleviate Rust compile times
Two common criticisms of Rust development are the long compile times and the large number of dependencies that end up being used in projects. While people have drawn connections between these issues before, I've noticed that most discussions don't end up talking much about a specific tool that ostensibly should

En sus manos, se aprecian varios anillos. La guitarra es una Fender Stratocaster…
