These are good citations. Specially Heisenberg's: it is now obvious to me that in noticing nature and trying to understand it, you subject it to a particular line of reasoning. Physicists particulary enjoy subjecting it to maths. I do

Yes that is reasonable. What I know is from an account by a relative here in Spain, and it depends on the lawyer. Of cours, infinitessimal amounts compared to the money being talked about here

I don't really understand the logic here. If you've received a donation, you can't be forced to return any money, specially if you didn't know it had dubious origins

After watching the video, I feel amazed by the clarity of the explanation and the examples. I didn't know what prolog is (still don't really know), but at least this video made me think about pattern matching and backtracking in a

Not an assumption: movement is relative. Quite fun to think about it (Einstein's elevator mental experiment)

I really like your reasoning. The only problem I see is that if everyone did what you propose, we wouldn't have Hacker News at all (upvotes, in the end, must come from somewhere). So from a Kantian ethical point of view, it doesn'

I only read the abstract and the result is in the same spirit but doesn't say exactky between X and 2X. It's between some more complicated expressions (using logs like usual in number theory)

Yes, but having an easy and non-destructive environment to connect brain to code is good. We used Processing (predecessor to p5js) to learn coding at school, and it's really good for drawing programatically

This is a good way to think about the subject. Still, education at a higher level like uni is often good to get a sound understanding of a subject (more so than optimizing for grades). Also learning a new (natural) language sometimes requir

Never heard it put that way! Still, it takes grit to graps any deep formal topic, and there are those in all the disciplines you mentioned. Harmony for music, Composition for Art and programming for systems are some examples

You can switch Escape with caps lock. It's easy to do in linux and arguably better if you get used to it for vim keybinding ergonomics
