The College Board is a financial scam ( https://www.therealcollegeboard.org/ ) but arguably its flaws aren't technically Capitalist. Facebook and TikTok are, though. There's no reason for a school test-taking websit

Imagine if you had a private meeting with your school guidance counselor, and then the school sent a copy of your questions to Facebook and TikTok along with your ID # in those systems. College Board is yet another parasite that sunk its te

The follow-up article traves the history from Prigogine. https://www.quantamagazine.org/first-support-for-a-physics-t... It says that England made more meaningful contributions to the biological aspect.

I'm hoping that England did some new math, and didn't just rediscover lost work. That's in the paper, not the article. The rest of the article is physicists making ill-informed statements about biology they don't unders

You should read the book. It fills in about 100 more steps/options around those 3 general steps. Getting from 1 to 2 and from 2 to 3 is the aim of the book

I used Rudin in school. I got the highest grade in my class that included several future PhDs and professors. It's an old, not very good pedagogical book. It's a useful reference, if you are living in the pre+Internet, pre color-i

If what you say is true, why did it take so long to prove Fermat's Last Theorem? Polya's book is distilling hard fought PhD wisdom into a book children can understand. It's for solving novel hard problems, not trivial ones.

by hgsgm 3y ago
Of course if you solve the same problem with trivial variations, they become trivial exercises. Try harder problems.

by hgsgm 3y ago
Maybe if you followed Polya you wouldn't need thousands of problems.

Yes. It's more relevant in a word problem, where you need to extract the condition from text and translate it into syntactical math notation so you can compute. "John wants to have 7 pizzas. He has already made 3 pizzas. How many

So, strength is the ability to write a monad-related function you can define if you need to, like any other function you might write that had a monad argument. But you can't not in math monads, for reasons not explained. I don't s

That quote is commentary, not science. You should ignore that from the paper/scientist, as it doesn't belong in research. It belong in the non scientific comment forums.
