Researchers say they've used cutting-edge gravitational wave research to shed new light on a nearly 2,000-year-old mystery.

Clickbait debunking :
1st : it’s a mechanism / not a computer,
2nd : it has nothing to do with gravitational waves but rather with some mathematic that was use to study those waves, and
3rd : there is no mystery, just clickbait as usual.

it’s a mechanism / not a computer,

It’s an analog clockwork computer.

there is no mystery, just clickbait as usual.

There’s plenty of mysteries about it, hence why it’s still a topic of study despite being discovered 120 years ago.

Surprisingly, the inspiration for the paper came from a YouTuber who has been attempting to physically recreate the ancient mechanism.

I was just re-watching clickspring’s videos about this yesterday.
