The sibling comment answered most of what you wrote. So, I'll just add that I'm talking about the present day, not 20+ years ago. I don't know about your experience in Australia 20+ years ago, but I'm teaching real stude

Perhaps, but it's not new math (Clifford algebras are almost 200 years old). Shrouding it in a veil of buzzwords and pizzaz makes you look more like con artists than scientists. A sentence like this one is just absurd: > Clifford&#x

And they made dozens of hour long videos about that? That's insane. And the arrogance of calling it "geometric algebra" like they invented a new field of math?!

Somehow, in your links, there isn't a single explanation anywhere (that's not in the form of a video that I don't have time or inclination to watch) about what "geometric algebra" is supposed to mean. I'm tryin

You do realize it makes no difference whether the vectors are written horizontally or vertically? Part of mathematical maturity is not getting hung up on pointless notation like this.

Wait, their certificates aren't trusted by the os? What's the point of their service, then? A self-signed certificate accomplishes the same result!

It's really sad that the tool you design should adapt to its users rather than its users having to adapt to your tools?

Any suggestions on how it could be terser while still being readable? If you're reading a new module using the functionality, would you prefer seeing [[likely]] return 2; or @!l return 2; ? Which one is more understan

Can you explain in a few words how an NFT is different from a certificate stating you own a piece of land of the Moon?

You're evading taxes and worker protection laws. Congrats I guess? If your business model is dependent on flouting the law, then maybe it's time to rethink the business model.

If crypto crashes when leaders of countries with worthless currency ban it, then maybe crypto isn't really that great at solving any of the problems it purports to solve (independence from central authority etc).

Your complete lack of mention of nsswitch.conf makes me believe that you're not implenting anything correctly in this instance.

As someone who used to be a diehard Linux user and supporter, and then switched back to windows after about a decade, this thread is a good reminder of why I switched back. I've been hearing about the year of the Linux desktop for... Y

Not everyone is interested in playing games in 4880p at 245 FPS. Besides the obvious diminishing returns, consuming this much power and generating this much e-waste for entertainment is irresponsible.

This looks like garbage on narrow screens (mobile).

Funny you should mention Annals. A journal famous for publishing two papers in three years by the same author, one proving some theorem, and the other disproving the theorem. Sure, tons of other journals have done so, but Annals is definite

No message about how greedy Europe wants to steal money from big tech, yada yada yada. Oh, it's the USA this time? Wait, does this mean that these big tech were really not paying their fair share and the USA was just slow to get caught

I'm confused. Do you accept published papers as gospel? They should be taken with a grain of salt too.

Yes, it's eight multiplication with the naive algorithm. You can get to seven with a clever trick (Strassen's algorithm). As far as I'm aware, with these precise numbers (8x8 matrix decomposed into four 4x4) it's unknown

It's also amazing to write documentation or unit tests. Or repetitive editing tasks that are hard to automate (e.g. "invert this if condition").

Would you like me to send you some online tutorials on how to import CSVs into excel? Because at this point it's just crazy. Are you using excel 2009? Do you not know about the "Data" tab in the ribbon? There's a whole d

Uh? Are you sure you've actually used Excel? The CSV import is highly configurable and leads you immediately into Power Query where you can massage the data any way you want.
