You will possibly like Needham's "Visual Differential Geometry and Forms" and even if you don't have much time to study it, it's quite beautiful to look at from time to time.

The book "Robot Builder's Bonanza" is a nice introduction and gets you started on the hardware side.

That symmetries imply conservation laws is pretty fascinating (see the Noether theorem). I guess it seems only strange it you assume already that the conservation law holds.

When I was a student of physics and came across this paragraph in Feynman's book, I was curious if he really meant the simple technique explained in the article, a more general one (also described in the article with the integral bound

I understood "binaries" in "compressed binaries" as "executables", e.g. like a packed executable, but I see that you mean indeed a binary file (and not e.g. a text file).

Thanks for your reply and advice! I guess what you describe as "impossible" is the case I am mostly interested in, though more for non-executable binary data. If I am not mistaken, this goes under the term "file fragment clas

A shot in the dark, but maybe you could give me a hint. Recently, I was interested in extracting sprites from an old game. I was able to reverse the file format of the data archive, which contained the game assets as files. However, I got s

Same experience here! We used Origin and/or QtiPlot in a physics lab for the graphs and quick regressions.

We have been in the process of upgrading to the latest version and can't continue. The lack of communication by Mathworks is very strange.

That the distribution was a fully translated system together with a thick manual (of course also in German) was the whole point and idea. Your comment is too dismissive in my opinion.

From all we know, this was most likely an oversight by Carlsen and then an overreaction by FIDE. After he left on his own, I guess the main sponsor got pretty upset with FIDE and forced this dispensation to let all of them somehow save face

A system that would just output the most probable tokens based on the text it was fed and trained on the games played by players with ratings greater than 1800 would certainly fail to output the right moves to totally unlikely board positio

No, certainly the USA ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States ). The author is most likely Austrian or German and it is quite common to say "Amerika" for the USA there.

In my case, I am applying this in the calibration of instantaneous correlation matrices. His relevant papers can be found at [0]. It was really helpful that he also published MATLAB code of most of his algorithms. [0] https://nhi
