   Pi only shows up in the field equations multiplied with an arbitrary constant. Therefore they are trivial to formulate without.

   I think it's fairer to say that it is possible. I am on a train so I can't do more than refer to http://lesswrong.com/lw/ev3/causal_diagrams_and_causal_model... unfortunately.

   The conclusions in the book are amazing. It is possible to infer casual relationships just from observing. But I couldn't help thinking that the presentation could be improved a little. I am not clever enough to figure out how; it&#x27

   My personal code base is C++/cmake and Python. It would be really nice with a way to slowly start writing code in Rust instead.

   You could do it for n=0.

   Seems more like a shortest path problem than a TSP, which is a good thing.

   “Vector Space Mathematics”? I think “linear algebra” is a more well-known term.

    Think about it like this: for a 100x100 image, there are 100!*100! ways to double-shuffle. But there are 10000! ways to shuffle the pixel. So a lot of structure remains in the double-shuffled image.

    Hopefully there can be a new function returning optional at some point in the future.

    I think they talked about this some time ago and that they were (slowly) moving away from new CRTs all the time.

    Agreed. The relevant part of the post seems to be the UX issues.

    No, it shows that successes like these are impossible to predict.

    Must be a simple mistake. You can definitely get a ST license at Google if you want to.

    That's only one part. Another is realizing that you may be the one who should change your mind.

    These notebooks are just Python code. They even have #-comments instead of markdown. For awesome Python notebooks, see http://norvig.com/ipython/README.html

    But also: Feynman received the highest score in the country by a large margin on the notoriously difficult Putnam mathematics competition exam, although he joined the MIT team on short notice and did not prepare for the test. htt

    I don't think that's correct. You can also rotate around the direction you are looking. Rotations in 2D are one-dimensional. Complex numbers are two-dimensional but we fix one degree of freedom by fixing the length. Rotations in 3

    Any CSV reader should be limited only be disk access right? I wrapped together a C++ program solving this problem and got 0.124 seconds. But that does not do quotations etc.

    Wow, that is super impressive! Surprisingly short program too.

    "You can see these are not exactly small optimization problems. The smallest one has 89 parameters in the model, and the largest has 600." Those are small optmization problems. These types of problems are solved in computer visi

    So you can write value.to_radians().to_radians() then? Weird.

    I did a test with packet capture just now and "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" does not prevent the request from being made, just preventing the JavaScript from getting the response back.

    When I played around with XMLHttpRequest to a locally running Jupyter server I got the following error: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. It seems that should have prevented this exploi
