Doing more, understanding more the tech of the project, exploring more ideas, the list is infinite

Who got more time thanks to AI ? I think a lot of us are working more instead


I have tons of friends who know HoMM III, it’s the game of our youth

I think it’s also popular in eastern Europe


The Polish HoMM III Championship is happening right now, with last semi-finals match scheduled for 30/31 October, ahead of Grand Finals in Gdańsk 13-15 November.

h3.gg for anyone interested


The calorie theory is the same theory that leads people to believe they can exercise to loose weight

How to do that exactly ?


The thing the OP describes happens in France as well


You can absolutely deal with complex numbers with the (x,y) notation


You can use exponential with matrices as well.

That some people don’t want to understand deeply the tools they use don’t make their tools superficial or “hotfixes”


I mean the guy has a PhD in mathematics so I'm sure he understands his tools deeply. Certainly more deeply than I did when I was an undergraduate in his class. Sometimes the right analogy, even if imperfect, is more helpful to build intuition than pages of rigorous proofs. Chill out.


Of course maths need intuition, it isn’t always incompatible with being rigorous

But yes some who have PhD in physics don’t always care about understanding deeply maths tools. Depends what you’re doing


I’m not sure why you feel the need to keep arguing about this. I’m not going to go back to my Alma Mater and tell the prof that some nobody on hacker news doesn’t like an analogy he used 12 years ago.

Whatever point you’re trying to make is not working.

Go away.


Im sorry if I come across as aggressive, Im myself chill and just here to talk, share and discover new things. Analogies are essential to learning I agree with you


Get a m5 pro mac with 48gb vram and you’re good to go for a few years and that computer can be used for others purpose as well


Dog slow, at last for me. I can't crack 30 tokens/s. I'm trying an Intel B70 next.


I recommend Visual Complex Analysis by Tristan Needham


There is proof of this theorem in it that blew my mind some years ago [1]. Someday I want to finish reading the rest of the book.

> Starting with a given convex quadrilateral, construct a square, external to the quadrilateral, on each side. Van Aubel's theorem states that the two line segments between the centers of opposite squares are of equal lengths and are at right angles to one another.

Wow, that's such a surprising theorem. Thanks for sharing.


Have we settled on a really good universal approximation model of memory+computation or is this a hard topic to solve in itself ?
