What is meant by "exploding" here?

Superficially similar, yes, but my point was just that it may seem from your bunching up the links together that all refer to the same thing, while they don't.

I'm pretty sure the first two links refer to something very different than the third: The first two are about a way to encode maths using unicode, as in conventions and special characters allowing e.g. to write fractions, aligned equa

(sorry for the piggyback) Something I'd like to see is a simple way to define “containers” on my desktop that would allow me to run sandboxed versions of my standard apps in bundles. The plan would be something like the following. You

> people still can be harmful even being in good faith That's a general truth. You make it sound like people choose academia to somehow cheat the system and profit from free student's work or whatever. Make a real case for you

> I am generally suspicious of anyone who voluntary pursues academia That's very unfair imo. The majority of people I know in academia don't fit this profile at all. There is obviously disappointing stuff happening, but people

It's not necessarily about becoming famous. If you're good enough, you can just work on what you enjoy doing, and it will probably yield something research worthy anyway, and your bosses will be happy, etc. Otherwise, you might en

To me, the question that springs to mind then is: does that kind of attitude work as well for “lesser” mathematicians/people? (I'm not sure it does)

So, I guess in the meantime some developments on the idea have been made. What would a modern intro/reference be?

I often find using interrail.eu to be a good option. Much more elastic, and can quickly get financially interesting, even more so for multi-hop travels.

I was bothered (for lack of a milder word!) by your use of "proved". As far as I understand, the major problem is that "algorithm" is sort of undefined. To actually prove that TMs are universal, you need to set the for

> proven to be at least as powerful as any possible algorithm I'd be careful with that, you need to formalize "any possible algorithm" first, and that's the content of Church-Turing I believe. Edit: Also, don't f

Just as a heads-up, you should maybe have a look at mailcow and mail-in-a-box: * https://mailcow.email/ * https://mailinabox.email/ which essentially provide the whole email stack in a relatively nice bundl

Is coffee production polluting? What is the number breakdown?

Except unions of open sets are required to be open, so the case for topology here is not what you're describing (assuming standard definitions). Generally, the topology on a graph will look like what you get if you draw your graph in t

Interesting, thank you! I didn't actually think such a thing existed. Can you expand on the lack of scientific merits? I gather it's a mix of sociology,philosophy,communication and logic?

I'm not sure arXiv is an example of doing without journals. arXiv doesn't involve peer review, so that any result published there are to be taken with a big grain of salt. On the other hand, there are open access journals that e

Fair points. I like the 'short timeframe/small goal' idea... might try that. Thanks for the tips!
