Why is the EPR paradox invalid?

No.13379162 ViewReplyOriginalReport
Say we have two people with entangled particles and place them infinitely far away from each other. The particles can either be red or blue and are stored in boxes connected to Shrodinger-esque bombs, person A and B both know that if the particle in their box turns out red then they explode.

If A opens their box and the particle is blue then they immediately know that person B has died or will die. How is this not information transfer?

Elliptic curve cryptography

No.13375443 ViewReplyOriginalReport
Can someone ELI5 what is elliptic curve cryptography and particularly what the Secp256K1 standard does? What i sort of grasp is that given an initial random number, the Secp256K1 will spit out a number.
Are there any online calculators or scripts to do the calculation? Is it just a 1 to 1 function or do you have to feed it additional parameters?

/AHG/ Artesian Hour General

No.13354519 ViewReplyLast 50OriginalReport
This is Artesian Hour General. This is for all of you with "Big Ideas" which are 100% science and are master crafted by an artesian such as yourself. If you're taking a break from the lab, you can come here to practice the rhetoric you need when writing grants, proposals, speaking to the media, journal articles, and interest pieces for major publications, all of which you are awarded due to your 100% real science idea and your effort-honed rhetoric.

If you have a big science idea and lots of science back it up, if you can make references to published scientific concepts to legitimize your claim with all sorts of measurements and studies, that's what we're all about here.

If you've got some dope arguments about science that are 100% science, bring it here. Claims like "Show me a study" are always good. Claims like "false logic" are for people trying to cop out of an argument, unwilling to address points, and instead attempting to "claim victory through forfeit". False logic is the seasoning of rhetoric, it is the backbone of every social science, and that's why those skills are important for artesian scientists like you.

If you need some practice writing, using rhetoric to justify your claims and theories, this is the spot. This is proxy-science, because we try to use our understanding of science to produce arguments, but don't actually try to use science.

>Every great scientific discovery was a hypothesis before it was codified by empirical data produced by replicable experiments.

If you're only on step 1, hypothesis, then you must rely on rhetoric, references, and persuasion in order to justify your claims to the point where you receive funding to carry out your scientific experiment or study.

If I have two functions that with bounded variation between a set interval, how do I go about proving that the sum of those functions also has bounded variation?
