They are evil because they produce closed source offline software used by millions: Microsoft Windows.

And also their monopolistic practices: United States v. Microsoft Corp.

So, as put in Video "Bill Gates vs Steve Jobs by Epic Rap Battles of History (2012)" by fake Steve Jobs to fake Bill Gates:

However, like all big tech companies with infinite money, they do end up doing some cool things in their research department, Microsoft Research, notably for Ciro Santilli being:

Please, use AsciiDoc and one page to rule them all.

The basis for Linux Kernel Module Cheat.

Buildroot is good.

Like the U.S.' summer term.

E-learning system prior to Canvas: weblearn.ox.ac.uk/portal. Appears fully custom and closed source?

Closed in 2023 in favour of Canvas.

TODO synonym to analog quantum computer?

It is also possible to carry out quantum computing without qubits using processes with a continuous spectrum of measurement.

As of 2020, these approaches seem less developed/promising, but who knows.

These computers can be seen as analogous to classical non-quantum analog computers.

A glitch is more precisely a software bug that is hard to reproduce. But it has also been used to mean a software bug that is not very serious.

Currently, none of the crucial cross file features like \x, \Include and table of contents are working. I was waiting until the above mentioned features were done, and now I'm going to get to that.

Take the group of all Translation in ${\mathbb{R}}^1$.

Let's see how the generator of this group is the derivative operator:

The way to think about this is:

So let's take the exponential map:and we notice that this is exactly the Taylor series of $f(x)$ around the identity element of the translation group, which is 0! Therefore, if $f(x)$ behaves nicely enough, within some radius of convergence around the origin we have for finite $x_0$:

This example shows clearly how the exponential map applied to a (differential) operator can generate finite (non-infinitesimal) Translation!
