Wigner-Dyson density or NNSD (Nearest Neighbour Spacing Distribution) of a Hamiltonian of a quantum system behaves in a certain distribution. This distribution is quite different than Poisson and distinctly differentiates chaotic behaviour

Interesting post regarding a misconception on the principle of parsimony, Occam's razor. Might be valuable for decision makers as well. Core take away: "Filter explanations first based on representations then selection follows.

Probably I should have a bit more explicit why it is promising. Rendering speed is quite critical as it is related perception and human reaction time. If rendering is very slow then the engagement and iterating of writing maths will be inte

Super promising.

I think it is more of JVM thing than Java only. Maybe because of enterprise scale, rather than being resource aware minimalist solution.

Yes, detection is an unresolved problem and a critical point from modern causal inference that purely statistical methods may not able to differentiate direction; even though there are quite a few algorithms using asymmetric distribution ar

In engineering and sciences practice, existence of time is vitally accepted and measured. We have experiments verifying not only existence of time but relativity of time is established strongly. There are couple of prominent topics supporti

I wouldn't be so pessimistic. Actually, it does explain why we perceived the time flow: It is called Thermodynamics. One can compute and verify scientifically, measure time flows from biological clocks to GPS systems.

Time is not an illusion. It can be experimentally verified. There is a flow in a certain direction. Carlo is saying that time is not absolute, every point on the space is a clock, essentially trying to convey the core concepts of special re

"Old school" molecular dynamics simulations. Fantastic lectures from Professor Ashlie Martini. Sometimes statistical concepts are a little differently presented in dynamics simulations. Pedagogically written.

This is interesting. There might be an information-theoretic reason — perhaps 'spatial tokenization' is more informative than 'words tokenization'.
