Do you not see how the two go hand-in-hand, your "gay man married to a woman because it's illegal to be gay in his country" and "it's common to assume opposite gender"? I don't know what malice means to yo

You're not wrong that all words about human identity and behavior and politics have fuzzy (or really no) boundaries. But this is not a nitpick you can apply to my statement. I'm not saying to assume people's sexuality from th

"wife" doesn't mean "partner", in case anyone else reading this thinks otherwise. If you don't want to assume a man is heterosexual, don't assume he has a wife.

I believe the name for this ad-hoc network is Apple Wireless Direct Link (AWDL), though I think that the name also refers to the mechanism that allows one WiFi radio to be involved in doing AWDL and also not drop the connection to the WAP h

It's hard to make one-size-fits-all. If you figured it out, then I think it's fairly quick to get through the ~10 problems. If you hadn't figured it out yet, then it's good practice, and then the game doesn't get to

It’s always wonderful to hear personal accounts! I don’t think I understand the sentiment around the teacher workshops that you mentioned. How do you feel about the workshops teaching teachers about an “alternative” multiplication algorithm

If there is a specific discussion direction you have in mind, you should put it forth. That clip helps add more context, for sure. I don't have much to add, but I'll state that I adore Papert's vision, and that even those who

Listen, I am about as left as they come. But do you want to try to respond to my actual comment? What I heard in the clip was Shaw claiming it is expensive to put computers in the classroom, but that it is a worthwhile investment. And that

I do not think he argued against "one computer per student". Did he not explicitly say he agree with the point, but wanted to be clear that he thinks it would cost more than what Papert was saying?

Despite the costs of using a “too big” symmetry group (I’d say overparameterization), I bet it’s hard to beat the performance of 4*4 matrix multiplications, since the computation is so uniform, vectorizable, and perfectly sized for e.g. SIM

This is not very clear to me. Can you be more precise? If we're talking about the Lie algebra of space rotations, then the elements of that are infinitesimal rotations. Those elements form a vector space, and there's also the Lie

From your description, you have not experienced [what I consider] a breakthrough with the cross product. In 3D there is a one-to-one mapping between vectors and oriented areas (feel free to think of it as a plane along with scalar denoting

Certainly you cannot ever truly abstract away the physics, but also certainly you do not follow instructions, communicate to others, or introspect about how to e.g. cook dinner on the level only of forces.

I don't think you'll find a 1000 fps camera on a "standard" AV platform. And if you did, I imagine it would be too noisy to be useful without a ton of illumination.

MATLAB, NumPy, and a lot of GPU programming (not to mention, Julia) relate to APL and J. You might be surprised by how important what you're learning is to express an efficient computation on a GPU in terms of array operations.

Thanks for sharing. This is getting into territory that non-musically trained hearing people would probably have difficultly, but can you distinguish between a C major chord and a C minor chord? And do you have any other feelings about it,

It is not transmitting every displayed character over USB. The terminal emulator needs to send a command (e.g. not just a character, though the distinction is besides the point) to the device.
