Like a heat equation but for functions without time dependence, space-only.

TODO confirm: does the solution of the heat equation always converge to the solution of the Laplace equation as time tends to infinity?

In one dimension, the Laplace equation is boring as it is just a straight line since the second derivative must be 0. That also matches our intuition of the limit solution of the heat equation.

Uniqueness: Uniqueness theorem for Poisson's equation.

There are actually two possible definitions for the DFT:

The $1/\sqrt{N}$ is nicer mathematically as the inverse becomse more symmetric, and power is conserved between time and frequency domains.

Data that is inscribed in a blockchain as a way to perpetuate the data, rather than to follow the main intended purpose of the given blockchain, e.g. ASCII art instead of financial transactions on the Bitcoin blockchain.

This model can work well when there is a set of commonly used libraries that some developers often use together, but such that there isn't enough maintenance work for each one individually.

So what people do is to create a group that maintains all those projects, to try and get enough money to survive from the contributions done primarily for each one individually.

Examples:

The most important ones are:

Because a Git commit can have more than 1 parent due to merge commits when you do:

It can even have more than 2, there's no limit. Although that is not so common (with good reason, 2 is already one too many): softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/314215/can-a-git-commit-have-more-than-2-parents/377903#377903
