Mordell's theorem Updated 2025-07-16
The elliptic curve group of all elliptic curve over the rational numbers is always a finitely generated group.
The number of points may be either finite or infinite. But when infinite, it is still a finitely generated group.
For this reason, the rank of an elliptic curve over the rational numbers is always defined.
TODO example.
Multilinear form Updated 2025-07-16
See form.
Analogous to a linear form, a multilinear form is a Multilinear map where the image is the underlying field of the vector space, e.g. .
Transcendental number conjecture Updated 2025-07-16
There's a billion simple looking expressions which are not known to be transcendental numbers or not. It's cute simple to state but hard to prove at its best.

SQL TRIGGER in Sequelize Updated 2025-07-16
Example: nodejs/sequelize/trigger_count.js
There is of course no built-in support for SQL TRIGGERs in Sequelize, but we can add our own: stackoverflow.com/questions/29716346/how-to-create-a-trigger-in-sequelize-nodejs/76215728#76215728

Josephson current Updated 2025-07-16
Maximum current that can flow across a Josephson junction, as can be directly seen from the Josephson equations.
Is a fixed characteristic value of the physical construction of the junction.
Noether's theorem Updated 2025-07-16
As mentioned at buzzard.ups.edu/courses/2017spring/projects/schumann-lie-group-ups-434-2017.pdf, what the symmetry (Lie group) acts on (obviously?!) are the Lagrangian generalized coordinates. And from that, we immediately guess that manifolds are going to be important, because the generalized variables of the Lagrangian can trivially be Non-Euclidean geometry, e.g. the pendulum lives on an infinite cylinder.

x86 Paging Tutorial 64-bit architectures Updated 2025-07-16
x86_64 uses 48 bits (256 TiB), and legacy mode's PAE already allows 52-bit addresses (4 PiB). 56-bits is a likely future candidate.
But that would mean that the page directory would have
2^18 = 256K
entries, which would take too much RAM: close to a single-level paging for 32 bit architectures!x86_64 uses 4 levels in a
9 | 9 | 9 | 9
scheme, so that the upper level only takes up only 2^9
higher level entries.The 48 bits are split equally into two disjoint parts:
----------------- FFFFFFFF FFFFFFFF
Top half
----------------- FFFF8000 00000000
Not addressable
----------------- 00007FFF FFFFFFFF
Bottom half
----------------- 00000000 00000000
A 5-level scheme is emerging in 2016: software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/2b/80/5-level_paging_white_paper.pdf which allows 52-bit addresses with 4k pagetables.
Julia Vie Updated 2025-07-16
Ross Ulbricht told her about Silk Road, but then later said he had sold the website to someone else, without really doing that.

Matches the quantum superposition probability proportional to the square law. Poor Étienne-Louis Malus, who died so much before this was found.
