There are rumours of anew air this October.

Nearest neighbour searching and Gaussian filters are everywhere these days - here’s a cool way to use them to simulate fluids. Thought people might like to see the applicability of stuff they use every day in a different context.

Steam can be whatever temperature it wants. There is no 100C limit. Either way, there should be no steam near a radiator.

Isn't that the whole point of this utility? Or am I missing something?

Yeah sure, this chip makes sense for other laptops, just not the mbp.

Unlikely. A 100W TDP would mean that it would not be possible to run the laptop for any more than an hour at full load (on battery) or it would draw from both the wall and battery with their current power designs at full load. Also, That wo

Littlebits is considerably more expensive than the micro:bit.

One of the things that I came across when writing my own janky pdf/latex->html converter for lecture notes[0] is that Pandoc doesn't handle references and subfigures correctly, even with pandoc-crossref and pandoc-citeproc enab

But that is not how these models are constructed. They are from empirical data - they just tell you how many objects of a given size exist. The analogy is that the power spectra for the brain and the power spectra for the large scale struct

Eh, I disagree. Power spectra are a pretty standard thing to use to compare e.g. different structure formation models in Cosmology and I still stand by the idea that the two are strikingly similar (and how interesting that is).

by JBorrow 9y ago
I don't think that anyone is trying to argue that the similarity between the power spectra is useful but that doesn't mean it isn't interesting. Also, the level of similarity between them is striking!

I'm somewhat confused. Are you saying that there is no relation between the structure of the large-scale Universe and the structure of Neurons? If so, then why do we get two models that come out looking very similar? Of course, it is u

by JBorrow 9y ago
I just think that is why it is so interesting; that they share a similar structure even though they are formed in completely different ways may not tell us anything about the Universe but it is still something to note.

What's the difference? If both systems can be modelled in a similar way, how does that not make them similar? I don't think anyone is trying to make an argument that they are the same 'thing' ("hey, maybe the observ

Really not the same thing (e.g. pandoc for html -> pdf via LaTeX) as having a webkit based renderer. They do not look the same at all; sometimes it is good to have a LaTeX output but most of the time you are going to want a more accurate

Thanks! Most of the stuff is already open source on GitHub - even if it is a bit... crappy at the moment. I'm attempting a re-write with a vue.js frontent and a python LaTeX -> JSON compiler. Here are the associated repos: https:&#

I must say that I agree - to a certain extent. They (lecture notes) actually already are (at least in HE Physics education) as everything is written in LaTeX. They are just not distributed that way. I've been working on hacking togethe
