Exactly, x tends to be a real number, if it were an integer or a natural number you'd use n.

Alright, but are there really any overlapping concepts between graph theory and analysis? There can’t be many! The comment you linked to is pretty strange, given the limited number of symbols in the Greek and Latin alphabets, there’s obviou

I studied diff geo at phd level and met stat at undergrad level, plus a sprinkling of category theory, some discrete mathematics and some physics, so I’ve been exposed to most of these. I presumed we were talking about basic mathematics her

If you don’t remember notation, surely you don’t remember the material either, so why not just skim through the basic textbooks?

There pretty much is one true notation. There could be some slight variations, like bolding vectors, putting an arrow over them or not distinguishing them at all from scalars. But 95% of the time everyone uses the same notation.

In one sense, social skills are incredibly complex, it has been argued that the actual reason we grew such large brains was to make complex societies possible, not to solve practical problems. On the other hand, social skills come naturally

NFTs are about status and belonging. I doubt many NFT owners ever follow the URL to check that their Ape is still there, it doesn't matter. As long as they can claim to be the sole owner.

If your friend can reliably generate 10% (not just in the current insane bull market) he should open a hedge fund.

Yes, a scam hurts people, but not everything that hurts people is a scam!

No, that's not it. A scam implies that it's deliberate deception. People being hurt is neither here nor there. And obviously people ARE getting hurt, but that doesn't mean it's a scam. It's just a crazy bubble.

$2 is probably neither here nor there for the majority of situations when you sign documents, but DocuSigns UX is terrible. I would focus on improving that.

Came here to post exactly that. Almost all their own stuff is extremely formulaic. Even when it's well made, it's exceedingly bland.

Funnily enough, the article doesn't seem to cite any numbers at all for the richest, it just goes over how the poorest have gotten better off. For example: > Since its economic liberalization reforms in 1991, India’s average income

That's debatable. Any company that analyses large amounts of data produced by you in the form of posts, likes/dislikes, follows etc are effectively reading your mind.

In the US at least, they tend to live on the coasts, so maybe water intrusion is a bigger concern ;)

Isn't the efficiency of MagSafe quite high? Out of curiosity, is it harder to charge on early morning flights?

I'd say especially complex numbers. Few things seem more natural once you get used to them and see how they make everything fall into place.

Because Makani was by far the best funded startup in this space and they got very far. Very easy to understand why I'd say. As to fly-gen, it has several benefits, like continuous power delivery and not least an easy way to launch and

No, I just meant what I wrote. I'm simply agreeing with the guy that said that launching is expensive. It's indeed the hardest part for any kite energy system, I know this from experience, I spent several years in this industry. I

Flying conventional wind turbines aren't that good, they suffer from most of the downsides of both normal wind turbines and kite turbines. The idea with kite energy (in serious projects) is to eliminate the need for a tower and the inn

The wind also changes direction sometimes, that's not necessarily an issue. Several companies are doing this, like: https://minesto.com/

Yes, it's not exponential at all. Larger blades also need to be thicker, and the tower stronger etc. But still, it's economies of scale like everywhere else.

Kites like Makani's are autonomous, and that's really one of the harder aspects to get to work.

Why on earth are they doing this and how could anyone think it would do any good at all? And how could it possibly be legal?
