Never trust an experiment that is not supported by a good theory Updated +Created
Not the usual bullshit you were expecting from the philosophy of Science, right?
Some notable quoters:
Cycle of an element of a group Updated +Created
Take the element and apply it to itself. Then again. And so on.
In the case of a finite group, you have to eventually reach the identity element again sooner or later, giving you the order of an element of a group.
The continuous analogue for the cycle of a group are the one parameter subgroups. In the continuous case, you sometimes reach identity again and to around infinitely many times (which always happens in the finite case), but sometimes you don't.
Computer architecture Updated +Created
The term loosely refers to certain layers of the computer abstraction layers hierarchy, usually high level hardware internals like CPU pipeline, caching and the memory system. Basically exactly what gem5 models.
Micro Bit Updated +Created
Bluetooth support: not enough RAM for it, though in principle its chip/transceiver could support it! microbit-micropython.readthedocs.io/en/v1.0.1/ble.html

MicroPython web editor and compiler: python.microbit.org/v/2
Everything in this section is tested on the Micro Bit v1 from Micro Bit v1 unless otherwise noted.

Porn vlog Updated +Created
This is a porn style defined by Ciro Santilli as:
  • content is designed and owned by the actors
  • full face reveal
  • doing normal vlog things like talking, visiting places, eating, etc., not just fucking
Ciro believes that this is an interesting type of pornography, as it feels more natural and humane than all the horrible trash that comes out of horrendous professional mainstream porn industry.
Yes, it could go down the YouTube/Instagram alley, and lead the vloggers to do things they wouldn't normally do because of the audience. But who is to say that Ciro Santilli doesn't do the same on Stack Overflow to some extent?
That type of porn requires some big courage to make. Or balls if you will. Kudos to those creators, as it is so taboo it could greatly impact their future job prospects.
The travel sex vlog appears to be the most popular way to do it. Presuamably the reason being that you would not be able to interact with people in a normal job, so to keep things interesting you need to go to some random places.
Examples:
Topology Updated +Created
Topology is the plumbing of calculus.
The key concept of topology is a neighbourhood.
Just by havin the notion of neighbourhood, concepts such as limit and continuity can be defined without the need to specify a precise numerical value to the distance between two points with a metric.
As an example. consider the orthogonal group, which is also naturally a topological space. That group does not usually have a notion of distance defined for it by default. However, we can still talk about certain properties of it, e.g. that the orthogonal group is compact, and that the orthogonal group has two connected components.

Cross section (physics) Updated +Created
The neutron temperature example is crucial: you just can't give the cross section of a target alone, the energy of the incoming beam also matters.
