Things are moving so fast that I don't think even Paul understands much about the change that is brewing nor it's scale, no one knows what's going to happen.

You're killing me if you don't know the sums of sines could be discontinuous, although this property is usually only apparent when you take the sums of a sine series(e.g Fourier series) to infinity.

This particular function is composed of a heaveside step function though which is the reason for its disjointedness.

In this github repository is a research paperon the utilization of Summations; to factor a co-prime number into its component prime numbers, to find integer values for a Diophatine Equation, and to find the factorial value of a number x.

Hey the email is missing.
I’m curious if he still has this quantity of bitcoin with him at hand, as that would make him not just a rich man but one of the largest owners of bitcoin.

As someone who lost their job whilst Nomading, due to travelling to a location with bad network, which meant I missed a lot of team meetings. I was wondering if there was space for a service that helped people Nomad to wherever they wanted with ease by helping them curate and plan countries to go to, provision transportation, provision suitable accommodation and working facility with the required amenities, curate daily fun things to do in those places, and also handle un-foreseeable events like language, legal and cultural barriers?

Spellcheckers still blow my mind and Gmail's autocomplete(still the best out there imo), I still marvel when they work even though I know how they work and have used them for a while.

Re:Mathics: A free, open-source alternative to Mathematica on Saturday November 05, 2022 @05:04AM (#33479442)
This is so true for instance mathematica's treatment on numerical integration is the most complete I have seen out there so many methods that work on very minute and specific type of functions, this is even more so when you're working with functions that have singularities in them, and therefore need to be treated piecewisely, or functions that are highly oscillating.

This, so much this, writting nested equations are hell in python and other mathematica alternatives but they are so easy in mathematica.
