TODO why did Python kill it? They are very similar and existed at similar times, and possibly Perl was more popular early on.

Perl likely killed Tcl.

As mentioned at Section "Plancherel theorem", some people call this part of Plancherel theorem, while others say it is just a corollary.

This is an important fact in quantum mechanics, since it is because of this that it makes sense to talk about position and momentum space as two dual representations of the wave function that contain the exact same amount of information.

Discovery: induced pluripotent stem cell.

Whenever someone asks:you don't need to read anymore, just point them to this page immediately. Virtualization for the win.

PNG reference implementation. Ahh, if feels good to have a dominating open source reference implementation.

Uranium-based, dropped on Hiroshima. The uranium was enriched at the Clinton Engineer Works.

Sets both a Dirichlet boundary condition and a Neumann boundary condition for a single part of the boundary.

Can be used for hyperbolic partial differential equations.

We understand intuitively that this imposes stricter requirements on solutions, which makes it easier to guarantee uniqueness, but also harder to have existence. TODO intuitively why hyperbolic need this extra level of restriction.

If something does a quantum jump, what causes it to decide doing so at a particular time and not another? It is expected that a continuous cause would have continuous effects.

This concern was raised immediately by Rutherford while reviewing the Bohr model in 1913 as mentioned in The Quantum Story by Jim Baggott (2011) page 32.
