Sometimes certain measuring instruments can be assumed to have such profiles for noise, in this case generating noise is useful for Monte Carlo based modeling or uncertainty propagation.

As someone coming from a failed state, the Internet is probably the recent invention with most tangible positive impact on people's lives. Even with Facebook, WhatsApp, TikTok, ... etc the pros hugely outweigh the cons.

That's unfortunate because his content used to be very good and this video seems only seeking engagement at a very shallow level, e.g. doesn't even mention transmission lines.

I might be mistaken but since the auto-correlation function is the inverse FFT of the power spectral density and power spectral density doesn't contain information about the phase. Thus, it's like dropping the phase and taking IFF

I've had great luck with cold emailing scientists with interesting questions or asking for code, I almost always got interesting and lengthy answers even from famous scientists in the field whom you'd expect to be super busy.

Notion is great, I particularly like the database concept with multiple views and how easy it is to to embed different views on different pages. I also like the rich formatting options that make it easy to create aesthetically pleasing page

A PhD is a journey of self discovery. There's something uniquely fulfilling about being on the edge of human knowledge on one particular subject and pushing that edge a tiny bit. No one does a PhD for the money. Even if you don't

> 92% efficiency in converting a tonne of CO2, using just 230kWh of energy. They estimate this equates to a cost of around $100 per tonne of CO2. Not sure if this is really competitive enough. Just read recently[1][2] that EEMPA based so

I think one of the major advantages of wavelets is the time-frequency representation of the signal, which means being able to see the different spectra of the signal change over time (at different scales) which is not easily attainable with

I try to make whatever I'm learning fun and relatable. That means making it not boring. Usually I don't follow any technique I just set a goal and mindlessly try to achieve it by learning things along the way. If it's a progr

Reading alone would take some serious hard work. To make any meaningful contribution in any field you have to do some serious reading (and understanding) to bring yourself up to date with the field.

It is a great algorithm. It is, however, a boring method and really takes a lot of discipline to make it a habit. For me, the best way to learn anything is have it tied to a fun challenge or a personal project. I've never been successf

Good point. I am indeed synchronizing the borg file. I have however my script run borg check before it synchronizes to the cloud. It would be better to synchronize the source files but the encryption and deduplication are what's keepin

I use borg backup to sync all our files (from ~5 machines) to an old PC which synchronizes everything to the cloud. Borg has deduplication, compression, encryption, and saves several versions of the files which I think is crucial. Also all
