SO(3) contains all of the orthogonal 3x3 matrices of determinant 1. If you are dealing with rigid bodies rotated though the origin like with the product of linear translations you can avoid the problem. At least with an orthonormal basis R^

> You can do rotation with a 3x3 matrix. You can do a rotation or some rotations but SO(3) is not simply connected. It mostly works for rigid bodies centered on the origin, but gimbal lock or Dirac's Plate Trick are good counter

the set of all matrices of a fixed size are a vector space because matrix addition and scalar multiplication are well-defined and follow all vector space axioms. But be careful of the map–territory relation. If you can find a model that is

That is because typing in this case is converting a semantic (run time) property into a trivial property (T/F). It is just making a trade off that is often a reasonable pragmatic default, but if taken as an absolute truth, can lead to

A formalized form of this is the red-green-refactor pattern common in TDD. Self created or formalized methods work, but they have to have habits or practices in place that prevent disengagement and complacency. With LLMs there is the proble

The map-territory relation is possibly a better fit? More specifically how Alfred Korzybski put it: "The map is not the territory". The map will never be the territory, and we are just looking for better maps.
