I remember experiencing something similar. But then iirc I noticed you can draw on a screenshot and I think i was copying the random dots I made by accidental clicks... You sure it wasnt this?

Why would you link to one of the most extreme mentally unwell twitter accounts immediately after a sentence on criticizing people willingness to consume propaganda?

You should probably give credit to Casey / Handmade Hero with regards to your windows platform code. Well its kinda scattered around, so probably just credit in general.

I think its because it's sort of gone in the opposite way that science usually goes. Science traditionally been the process of physical phenomena that we don't understand => falsifiable theory that helps describe that phenomena.
Meanwhile, we started at stuff like the perceptron. The starting point was that we knew everything about that equation/classifier. Now we have a thing that we built from the ground up, and we don't fully grasp how it all comes together.

From the blog that another reply linked (https://acko.net/blog/zero-to-sixty-in-one-second/)
'Rather than try and emulate some of the bling for CSS 3D-only environments, it's all or nothing. Without WebGL, you get plain images.'
Although this blog post is from 2013, so who knows if this is the actual reason.
Thankfully, the blog post also links to a video so you can still view it:

I guess very roughly you can say that if you describe a system with some set of parameters, which when changed in particular ways leave the system's quantities (energy, momentum, etc..) unchanged then you have a connection between symmetry and conserved quantities.

Have you tried WSL? The NVidia developer CUDA repo has a specific folder for "wsl-ubuntu" where you only install the toolkit and it reuses the Windows graphics drivers IIRC.

I would agree with this, good explanations and rigour are definitely not mutually exclusive. But I am not sure what you are expecting. This is a research paper, intended to be read by other experts. Even still, if we look at how the paper is organised, the authors start with a high level overview, and build upon simpler problems to leverage their way to an understanding of the main result. For a research paper, it is extremely thorough.
If you want a 'simple explanation' that allows a layman to gain some understand the problem, sure. But this isn't, and absolutely should not be, the purpose or content of the research publication, which is to succinctly communicate to other experts the results of their findings.

Its a research paper, the audience is going to be other experts in the field; it will be written in a way suitable for publishing to a journal. Even with a concise writing style, the paper is already at 100 pages. If you want to understand the paper it would make more sense to pick up a textbook and learn about the prerequisite material rather then expecting them to write a book for you, just to communicate their research result.

You've been in plenty of relationships, enough even, that you can make the claim that "often male" partners are not able to tolerate minor irritations?

And too add to this, dietary intake of cholesterol in general has less of an effect on serum cholesterol levels then people realise. This is especially true for eggs iirc due to the how the cholesterol is found within them.
