Any physicists around who can help me understand something?
How should I picture neutrinos in a QFT context? If particles are ripples in their field, and we can detect only a teeny-tiny fraction of neutrinos, what does that say about their field? Is it somehow quiet, and only ripples when we make a chance detection of a neutrino? Is it constantly rippling, but so noisily we can hardly ever detect a signal in it?
Or have I got this all wrong?
(Boosts OK, of course.)
@grork “We’re gonna be like a startup” is just rationalization for layoffs.
Oh, you’re gonna be lean like a startup eh? Will the workers be getting significant equity in addition to their pay too, or just more work? Cause startup workers get equity.

Friends, what #email client are you running on #Linux these days?
I've been running #Thunderbird since... the beginning?
The last few weeks I've tried a few other clients. #Evolution is decent but the GUI is stuck in the past, rough edges, clunky.
#Geary is ok. More modern but a little simplistic and I can't seem to find a way to disable threading (do not like). Graphically slow as well it seems.
What graphical client are you using that you like? What is it that you like about it?
Boost?
My favourite e-mail client is KMail, as part of KDE Kontact PIM suite

Crazy weather in Mediterranean Spain. I had decided to spend the couple weeks seeing the southwest coast, haven't had much more than annoying quantities of drizzle.
The storm has gone very badly. So much devastation in the area around Valencia.
An animation from EUMETSAT’s satellite "Meteosat Third Generation – Imager 1" showing how the storm takes Mediterranean humidity and just dumps it out onto the land, with the same spots just getting more and more rain.
The animation is from 0 UTC Oct 29 to 10:00 UTC Oct 30th.

Koh Kong Cambodia. Wonderful place. Too bad so far away for us. Took 11 hours getting there. Then three days of beach. Waterfalls. Eating and drinking. If you visit it's worth going.

The Arizona AG is investigating Trump’s “guns trained on her face” comment about Liz Cheney as a death threat.
His violent and demeaning rhetoric implicitly gave some PA citizens permission to have a Halloween parade entry with a woman dressed like Kamala Harris “shackled.”
Violent rhetoric is a virus.
