Capoeira music is amazing. And some Brazilian pop adaptations of it have also been awesome.

The Fourier series of an function (i.e. the function generated from the infinite sum of weighted sines) converges to the function pointwise almost everywhere.
The theorem also seems to hold (maybe trivially given the transform result) for the Fourier series (TODO if trivially, why trivially).
Only proved in 1966, and known to be a hard result without any known simple proof.
This theorem of course implies that Fourier basis is complete for , as it explicitly constructs a decomposition into the Fourier basis for every single function.
TODO vs Riesz-Fischer theorem. Is this just a stronger pointwise result, while Riesz-Fischer is about norms only?
One of the many fourier inversion theorems.

x86 Paging Tutorial The problem with single-level paging Updated 2025-07-16
The problem with a single-level paging scheme is that it would take up too much RAM: 4G / 4K = 1M entries per process.
If each entry is 4 bytes long, that would make 4M per process, which is too much even for a desktop computer:
ps -A | wc -l says that I am running 244 processes right now, so that would take around 1GB of my RAM! Minimal growth medium Updated 2025-07-16
