Except it runs into an excess problem. As an example, Berlin - just one city - has 7 professional orchestras. They are supported by the government financially to the tune of 200 million EUR per year. There is a very real opportunity cost he

Maybe you shouldn't give much credence to your intuitions if you don't really know much about the subject. Obviously experts have those simple intuitions too except they also know the details of the theories underlying it all so t

Why would the implementation of this not simply be a fee that the mail carriers have to impose? Isn't that by far the simplest solution that removes any and all bureaucracy for almost everyone and still catches 99% of the cases?

Not to forget mathematicians from other fields. They might be equally unfamiliar with most of our research topics. Yes we do have plenty of practice adjusting our explanations to the audience.

Well for one with a gigantic derivatives market compared to the underlying one it becomes relatively cheap to manipulate the underlying market. If you can make a gigantic bet on the price going up and then buy a large amount of Bitcoin that

In particular that means that if you fill the border up to a depth of 2 on one board with pieces, it becomes a theoretically inpenetrable fortress. For an overdone example see 2024,4219.

I absolutely agree. Not re-running the computation for the first 4*10^18 and claiming a new record is absolutely disingenuous. I could verify just a single example that hasn't been covered before and claim a new record with this logic.

You are assuming that the underreporting will be uniform. In reality people may be underrporting things they are embarrassed about and maybe even overreporting the opposite. This is a flaw in the data that is much harder to account for.

Well if you consider 1/z as a function of a complex coordinate it definitely makes a lot of sense to set it to infty. That identifies +infty and -infty if you restrict yourself to the real numbers.

Yeah but width-first immediately gives you the solution for any finite alphabet. So in that sense it is trivial.

The nice thing about formal verification is exactly that. You have a separate tool that's very much like a compiler that can check those 1200 pages and tell you that it's true. The source of truth here is the code we wrote for the

AI allowed him to avoid detection for a long time. It allowed him to create thousands of songs so that the each one would only get moderate amounts of streams thus not raising suspicion. Had he created songs by hand they would rack up milli

I agree. It's a volume of water bounded by a sphere. I'm just being pedantic about the common use of the word in this thread. I'm also somewhat surprised no one else was being pedantic about this. I expect better from HN :)

I'm not sure if you are kidding but just in case you are not this is very misleading and in fact misguided. Refering to polynomials as exponential just results in confusion essentially removing any meaning from the word. Any function c

Ok I don't mean to be pedanntic but a sphere is just the boundary of a ball. If we are trying to capture volume we should be talking about balls of water.

We know how to do this and have observed this tons of times at this point. This would not be novel in any way. This is about exciting the nucleus which is completely different.

It's essentially just the boundary of the Mandelbrot set which makes sense as that's where the calculation is the most unstable.

The theorem holds not for arbitrary dynamical systems but under two conditions: 1) The flow preserves volume 2) All orbits are bounded. The second law of thermodynamics is in a sense a statement about evolution of probability distributions.

I'm sorry but how, other than colorful language, is it useful to consider every cell as a universe? And how does that put us at the center of the universe? Equating cell to universes here does nothing of value.

A similar thing also happens in the modern formulation of the Stoke's theorem. Once you set up the machinery of differential forms it becomes almost a trviality which is just amazing.

There are simple practical reasons though. We don't do that to be fancy. There are simply not enough letters in the latin alphabet to not have common intersection in writing. We like to use the same letters for objects of the same type

At the very least they do not allow keychain to interact with browsers other than safari. This means that your autofill does not synchronize easily with your mobile devices. That's a choice that is not based on technical conditions and

A simple compressor solves that issue so I really doubt this would be an effective measure.

I think that's mostly due to the fact that the small market size makes it not quite worth it. With something like self riving the development costs are huge so you better capture a sizeable market.

No it wasn't. According to the article Biden unveiled the first image. That's it and that's true. No credit is being falsely attributed to him here.
