Yup. Also recommend to those interested in existential philosophy and artificial intelligence as well. It really is a terrific book!

I assume you might be looking for books of a similar (technical) flavour, of which I don't have too many to recommend, I'm afraid. However, here's some (across different genres) that are in my memory at this moment: Finance&#

This is remarkably well done. I'm reading Hofstadter's Godel, Escher, Bach and found this at the perfect time. Thanks for the write up!

Seconded. I tried a lot of other ones before settling for Bitwarden about two years ago. It's easily the best and most hassle-free one that covers all of my use cases. (Tried LastPass, Keepass, 1password, and a couple others)

The silence here is pretty defeaning too. Although it is a delicate matter, I suppose. My (admittedly underinformed) opinion is he shouldn't be brought to the US. Wonder if we could get a lawyer to chime in. Have there been any notabl

Nice article. Is anyone else getting a "[Math Processing Error]" in red at a bunch of places? I'm seeing: >For example, [Math Processing Error], so multiplying by an integer "preserves" this lattice (on the Divi

Well, do explain! You can't just say something is incorrect and not elaborate.

Thank you for your effort. For someone who is in academia and a firm believer in the advancement of knowledge via peer-review, these things matter. Cheers!

In Nepal, you are taught around the sixth grade that you can solve ax^2 + bx + c = 0 by splitting b into m and n such that mn = ac and m + n = b ( or m -n = b, if a and c have opposing signs). This "discovery" the author claims an

It might be just me but I don't get why people on here tend to be critical about DDG's usability. I made the switch a year and a half back and I seriously don't miss anything. There are some niche cases where it doesn't

Hmm. The reason doesn't look immediately obvious to me. What does your switching from Vanced to the official yt app have to do with someone's account getting suspended? Care to expand on it?

Wow! Thank you. What a blast from the past! I learned how to solve the Rubik's Cube blindfolded by watching him, back in the day. His tutorials are perfect and I've probably recommended his channel to ~50 people myself. Crazy he o

Will test and report back! I have an academic background but the only thing I remember about Laplace right now is his correction for the speed of sound, way back in high school.

Kudos to him and his team! Fantastic achievement. Slightly surprising that he is not a Sherpa, but a Newar (most probably, but I might be wrong). Sherpa people live in the high mountains and are thus better equipped to handle the challenges

Spot on. That the publication didn't find it worthwhile to accurately proofread the FIRST sentence of the article signals (to me) they are not worried about the reader's time and prevents me from taking their article seriously.

Your last impression, if true, would come as a great surprise to me. I would check but I'm literally in a Econ PhD class right now.
