Bicycle tire sizes Updated 2025-07-16
Yes, Sheldon he has separate American and British English versions of pages!!!
For example, Kross bicycle (2017) had a Schwalbe tyre with markings:When inflated, the tires were about 3.5cm wide as measured with a ruler.
And the Mavic A319 rim had markings:
622x19C
In this:
- ISO (Etrto): 42-622. So:
- 42 is the inner rim width. The actual inflated tire is going to be even wider.
- 622 is the bead seat diameter. The actual inflated tire is going to be even wider.
- imperial: 28 x 1.60
- French: 700x40C:

Gradient Updated 2025-07-16
Mnemonic: the gradient shows the direction in which the function increases fastest.
Therefore, it has to:
- take a scalar field as input. Otherwise, how do you decide which vector is larger than the other?
- output a vector field that contains the direction in which the scalar increases fastest locally at each point. This has to give out vectors, since we are talking about directions

This is a weak point of grep, it can't handle large lines that don't fit fully into memory:

Grinding for software interviews Updated 2025-07-16
If your kids are about to starve, fine, do it.
But otherwise, Ciro Santilli will not, ever, spend his time drilling programmer competition problems to join a company, life is too short for that.
Life is too short for that. Companies must either notice that you can make amazing open source software projects or contributions, and hire you for that, or they must fuck off.
Group extension problem Updated 2025-07-16
Besides the understandable Wikipedia definition, Video "Simple Groups - Abstract Algebra by Socratica (2018)" gives an understandable one:
Given a finite group and a simple group , find all groups such that is a normal subgroup of and .
We don't really know how to make up larger groups from smaller simple groups, which would complete the classification of finite groups:
In particular, this is hard because you can't just take the direct product of groups to retrieve the original group: Section "Relationship between the quotient group and direct products".
Group homomorphism Updated 2025-07-16
Like isomorphism, but does not have to be one-to-one: multiple different inputs can have the same output.
This brings us to the key intuition about group homomorphisms: they are a way to split out a larger group into smaller groups that retains a subset of the original structure.
As shown by the fundamental theorem on homomorphisms, each group homomorphism is fully characterized by a normal subgroup of the domain.
Bilinear map Updated 2025-07-16
Linear map of two variables.
More formally, given 3 vector spaces X, Y, Z over a single field, a bilinear map is a function from:that is linear on the first two arguments from X and Y, i.e.:Note that the definition only makes sense if all three vector spaces are over the same field, because linearity can mix up each of them.
The most important example by far is the dot product from , which is more specifically also a symmetric bilinear form.

Ciro Santilli once was at student a hackthon, where he proposed working on OurBigBook.com to others.
The only person who showed interest was a follower of the sect.
