We can't see individual stars outside of the Milky Way:Any single star outside of the Milky Way cannot be seen.

The Large Magellanic Cloud stands out as the brightest thing we can see from outside the Milky Way by far!

Ciro Santilli's dreams are described at: Ciro Santilli's dreams.

This is not a label that Ciro Santilli likes to give lightly. But maybe sometimes, it is inevitable.

Ah, the Holy Grail of both biology and computer science!

Ciro Santilli feels it is not for his generation though, and that is one of the philosophical things that saddens him the most in this world.

On the other hand, Ciro's playing with the Linux kernel and other complex software which no single human can every fully understand cheer him up a bit. But still, the high level view, that we can have...

For now, Ciro's 2D reinforcement learning games.

Bagic jump between orbitals in the Bohr model. Analogous to the later wave function collapse in the Schrödinger equation.

Causality and quantum jumps are incompatible.

Refinement of the Bohr model that starts to take quantum angular momentum into account in order to explain missing lines that would have been otherwise observed TODO specific example of such line.

They are not observe because they would violate the conservation of angular momentum.

Introduces the azimuthal quantum number and magnetic quantum number.

TODO confirm year and paper, Wikipedia points to: zenodo.org/record/1424309#.yotqe3xmjhe

Database of promoter.

E.g. for E. Coli K-12 MG1655: biocyc.org/group?id=:ALL-PROMOTERS&orgid=ECOLI For some context see e. Coli K-12 MG1655 gene thrL + e. Coli K-12 MG1655 gene thrA + thrB + thrC all of which are in the same transcription unit.

Ah, this seems like a nice dude.

The Eighth Day of Creation has two nice paragraphs about his work. He was shy and quiet, and didn't boast about his slow and steady progress, possibly because of this he only had a junior fellowship and at some point some people wanted to kick him out of the lab somewhere between 1948 - 1952, quoted at: sandwalk.blogspot.com/2013/11/fred-sanger-1918-2013.html

Power, Sex, Suicide by Nick Lane (2006) paints a colorful picture of the man!

As usual, it is useful to think about how a bilinear form looks like in terms of vectors and matrices.

Unlike a linear form, which was a vector, because it has two inputs, the bilinear form is represented by a matrix $M$ which encodes the value for each possible pair of basis vectors.

In terms of that matrix, the form $B(x,y)$ is then given by:

There's no point.

The question remains there, but people lose the ability to help the asker.

Reputation is meaningless regardless, since JavaScript gurus will always have 1000x more readers than low level junkies.

The deeper problem: the existence of multiple separate websites instead of just using the tags on a single website.

Examples:

Stack overflow allows deleting content/making it visible only to 10k rep users.

Ciro Santilli is strictly against this, and this is an intended core policy of OurBigBook.com.

If you delete people's content randomly, they will be much less likely to write anything.

Getting downvoted to oblivion is one thing, but data loss? Unacceptable.

Only illegal content must ever be deleted. Or extremely obvious spam. But anything in a gray area should never be removed.

Deletion can be done by either:

Examples:

The link will break, and the answer will lose. Or the person who summarizes inline will get more upvotes because people are lazy to click the link. Also, web archiving exists.

This is especially idiotic when it is a link to another post in Stack Overflow itself.
