The Fourier transform predates functional analysis by a century. I don't see the point in downplaying its significance just because 'duh it's simply a unitary linear operator on L2'.

Ok? I'm not going to change the definition of a 70 year old field because people are annoyed at chatgpt wrappers.

Yes one needs some awareness of the technology. Computer vision: unambiguously AI, motion planning: there are classical algorithms but I believe tesla / waymo both use NNs here too. Look I don't like the advertising of FSD, or mus

https://www.tesla.com/fsd ? I also don't understand the LLM ⊄ AI people. Nobody was whining about pathfinding in video games being called AI lol. And I have to say LLMs are a lot smarter than A*.

I'm just trying to shatter the illusion. Stop wrecking your mental health because you can't hang with the IMO kids. Many of these people are, unsurprisingly, very insular unless you want to talk about math and TC all day. Sounds r

I can deny it because it's obvious bullshit lol. I don't think that way and neither does anybody I know from MIT think that way. This is reality versus your imagination. If there's anyone I look down on it's my classmate

Is this like a humiliation fetish at this point? This is seriously unhealthy. We don't hate our friends that didn't a go to an eLiTe school because we're not sociopaths. Not sure why I'm even trying since you seem pretty

Yeah the code has a (somewhat rudimentary) fluid sim that's fed into reaction-diffusion. Pretty cool, don't think I've seen that combination before

Huh? It'll be slower and eat a massive amount of memory too.

I love McMaster but the multi-tab experience could really be better. Search filters don't carry through opening a link in a new tab (try searching M3 screw then ctrl-click socket head screws). Sometimes ctrl-clicking product numbers&#x

Did they actually tell you that? I highly doubt it. You've created a preconception that I guarantee is not accurate at all. You have multiple people here saying it's bullshit, and we're not lying or trolling or anything lik

Yes. I mean if the point is that MIT grads have unfair advantages sure, but he's built a quite unrealistic image of MIT/its students. There is a whole spectrum from IOI gold medalists to students who fail intro classes.

I was an undergrad and this is just wrong. Most are not going into HFT, and a bunch don't go into FAANG either. And not everyone who gets in was raised in a perfect upper middle class life. Do you really want to care about judgement fr

Considering we currently have a foreign policy solely based around giving 48 hour dopamine hits to the most newsmax-brain addled 25% of the population, that would be a significant step up. Democrats would not want to invade Mexico or plot a

That was bad, and this is bad. Iraq was bad, and this is bad. Brilliant. We should care because it's an easy way to make friends and remain the most powerful country in the world. Well, was easy, when you could trust the US to not chan

We should definitely go back to the good relations we used to have. Maybe if we're nice to them again they won't be running around with polonium, forcing migrants through Belarus, sending in little green men to their neighbors, an
