An eigenvector of a linear operator is a nonzero vectors s.t. the operator multiplies it by a scalar. It's existence for a complex finite dimensional operator can be proven without the determinant. The minimal and the characteristic po

Kakoune's [design doc]( https://github.com/mawww/kakoune/blob/master/doc/design.asci... ) stresses that Kakoune is a text editor, not an IDE. What does this really mean? Obviously, the main way p

Hello Michael, I've read your 2 articles about anki. I am an avid user of anki myself and I use it for math as well. In your 2 articles you tell about using it to understand and retain memory of an Alphago paper and to do the same for
