This vocabulary likely entered Ciro Santilli's vernacular through playing Counter-Strike when he was a teenager.
April 2024: merged with some fraud protection thing, is it sill a Wiki? Unclear, seem sto have lost that aspect: twitter.com/judegomila/status/1783028847983956430
techcrunch.com/2019/04/30/golden-launch/Exactly! Deletionism on Wikipedia is so sad, and especially for companies. In particular e.g. Ciro Santilli tried to create a page for PsiQuantum, and it got reverted... and now golden has one of the largest Google hits for it: golden.com/wiki/PsiQuantum-PBDGXRA

Golden wiki vs Deletionism on Wikipedia
. To state the obvious: Wikipedia is an incredibly useful website, but Gomila pointed out that notable companies and technologies like SV Angel, Benchling, Lisk and Urbit don’t currently have entries. Part of the problem is what he called Wikipedia’s “arbitrary notability threshold,” where pages are deleted for not being notable enough. (This is also what happened years ago to the Wikipedia page about yours truly — which I swear I didn’t write myself.)
TODO how do they do moderation?
As of April 2024Asked at: twitter.com/cirosantilli/status/1777250258235302233 Their last tweets were from August 2023, so maybe they just silently shutdown? Their name is too generic and hard to search for efficiently...

They do have knowledge graph built-in which is cool.
- There will be blood (2007). Business and cynicism. Also great music.
- Don't Look Up (2021). Politics.

Google has put considerable effort into custom hardware to greatly optimize its stack, in a way that is quite notable compared to other tech companies.

The "greatest common divisor" of two integers and , denoted is the largest natural number that divides both of the integers.
Unfortunately, physicists and mathematicians keep using Greek letters in their formulas, so we just have to learn them.
A helpful way to remember is to learn a bit of their history/pronunciation: Section "Historical correspondence between Latin and Greek".
To learn the greek letters if you have a base latin alphabet, you must learn the sound of each letter, and which Latin letters they correspond to.
Symbols that look like Greek letters but are not Greek letters:
Is Ciro Santilli crazy (he is, but for this point specifically), or do many/most Greek letters represent the mouth position used in the pronunciation of the letter?
A discrete 2D game on a rectangular grid: towardsdatascience.com/reinforcement-learning-implement-grid-world-from-scratch-c5963765ebff
This is analogous to many traditional board games such as chess, the concept is very natural and maps well into computer.
The downsides of gridworld games are:
- it is hard to model speed in discrete worlds. When you 10x faster, when do you collide with something else that is also crossing your path?
- they tend to not use vector representations of objects. So to have an object be 10x longer than another one, the naive implementation has to add 10 smaller objects. This becomes untenable as the number of objects increases.
One reasonable and memorable approximation excluding any fine structure is:see for example example: hydrogen 1-2 spectral line.

That's how Russian shadow library maintainers do it, they know how to crime good old Russians. Maybe there is a good thing about having dictatorships in the world that give zero fucks about American copyright laws. There will always be some random Russian academic who will implement this and not go to jail. Maybe it's even state sponsored.
The guitar is a highly imperfect instrument if compared to something like a piano, which is much more mathematically elegant.
However, Ciro Santilli just loves this imperfection for some reason, especially in the case of the electric guitar.

In some contexts, we want to observe what happens for a given fixed magnetic field strength on a specific plate (thus and are also fixed).
In those cases, it can be useful to talk about the "Hall resistance" defined as:So note that it is not a "regular resistance", it just has the same dimensions, and is more usefully understood as a proportionality constant for the voltage given an input current:
This notion can be useful because everything else being equal, if we increase the current , then also increases proportionally, making this a way to talk about the voltage in a current independent manner.
And this is particularly the case for the quantum Hall effect, where is constant for wide ranges of applied magnetic field and TODO presumably the height can be made to a single molecular layer with chemical vapor deposition of the like, and if therefore fixed.
