Germline Updated 2025-07-16
It is quite mind blowing when you think about it, that the huge majority of your body's cells is essentially just there to support a tiny ammount of germline, which are the only cells that can actually pass on! It is fun to imagine the cell type tree for this, with a huge branching of somatic cells, and only a few germline going forward.

The orthogonal group is the group of all invertible matrices where the inverse is equal to the transpose Updated 2025-07-16
Let's show that this definition is equivalent to the orthogonal group is the group of all matrices that preserve the dot product.
Note that:and for that to be true for all possible and then we must have:i.e. the matrix inverse is equal to the transpose.
These matricese are called the orthogonal matrices.
TODO is there any more intuitive way to think about this?
A Mathematician's Apology Updated 2025-07-16
With major mathematicians holding ideas such as:it is not surprise that the state of STEM education is so shit as of 2020, especially at the the missing link between basic and advanced! This also implies that the number of people that can appreciate any advanced mathematics research is tiny, and consequently so is the funding.
Exposition, criticism, appreciation, is work for second-rate minds. [...] It is a melancholy experience for a professional mathematician to find himself writing about mathematics. The function of a mathematician is to do something, to prove new theorems, to add to mathematics, and not to talk about what he or other mathematicians have done.

Amazon anticompetitive acquisition Updated 2025-07-16
Amazon is apparently notorious for having bought off many competitors, many of them just to kill off the competition and clear the way, not to actually reuse them.
youtu.be/tfAhTtBlb2Q?t=849 from Video "Jeff Bezos Revealed by Bloomberg (2015)" clearly shows Tim O'Reilly saying that very clearly about Bezos.Perhaps O'Reilly who is the bookselling business is not the greatest fan of Jeff. But still. My God.
I do know of a number of cases in which he [Bezos] has acquired companies in order to take out competitors, potential future competitors. Rather than because he actually wants that business to continue.
