The elliptic curve group of an elliptic curve is a group in which the elements of the group are points on an elliptic curve.
The group operation is called elliptic curve point addition.
The best place to get answers to programming questions as of 2019. Google into Stack Overflow is always the best bet.

Stack Overflow in a nutshell
. Source. As the "WTF look at my points" guy, Ciro Santilli approves of this meme. A few more elements could be added, notably deletion of the last link-only answer, but good enough.
By the profile image, the "Grammar Nazi" editor is actually appropriately the notorious serial editor Peter Mortensen. Ciro Santilli welcomes grammar fixes, but more subjective style fixes can be a bit annoying.

The downside of the Thiel Fellowship is that it is realistically impossible for its fellows to do anything in deep tech, only information science startups would be possible, as they would not have the labs, or lab skills required for any deep tech if they drop out before a PhD. Related: Section "The only reason for universities to exist should be the laboratories".
The only solution is the harder process of actually remodelling our very broken educational system.
Conservation of the square amplitude in the Schrodinger equation Updated 2025-06-17 +Created 1970-01-01
It can be derived directly from the Schrödinger equation.

- That proof also mentions that if the potential
Vis not real, then there is no conservation of probability! Therefore the potential must be real valued!
Ahh, this dude is just like Ciro Santilli, trying to create the ultimate natural sciences encyclopedia!
pytorch.org/vision/0.13/models.html has a minimal runnable example adapted to python/pytorch/resnet_demo.py.
That example uses a ResNet pre-trained on the COCO dataset to do some inference, tested on Ubuntu 22.10:This first downloads the model, which is currently 167 MB.

./resnet_demo.py resnet_demo_in.jpg resnet_demo_out.jpgWe know it is COCO because of the docs: pytorch.org/vision/0.13/models/generated/torchvision.models.detection.fasterrcnn_resnet50_fpn_v2.html which explains that is an alias for:
FasterRCNN_ResNet50_FPN_V2_Weights.DEFAULTFasterRCNN_ResNet50_FPN_V2_Weights.COCO_V1After it finishes, the program prints the recognized classes:so we get the expected

Every Lie group that has a given Lie algebra is the image of an homomorphism from the universal cover group Updated 2025-06-17 +Created 1970-01-01
- 1: Jim Prideaux captured. Some ex-colleague invites Smiley to dinner and keeps asking how incompetent people like Alleline climbed to the top of the Circus. Smiley recalled to service to meet Ricki Tarr.
- 2: Ricki Tarr tells his story to Smiley. Peter Guillam starts stealing material from the Circus, find missing page on the communication officer list. Smiley sets up his investigation operation.
- 3: Smiley meets Connie who tells that she was fired for suspecting Poliakov. Flashbacks show the ousting of Control and Smiley.
- 4: Guillam steals more material from the circus. While doing that, he is called by the top officers to inquire about Ricki Tarr being in England, which they suspect because they discovered that his family has come.
- 5: Jim Prideaux tells his story to Smiley, who cannot easily access the Circus reports about it. When he is returned to England, there was basically no debriefing, and Esterhase already knew about the Tinker Tailor codenames, presumably through Merlin.
- 6: Smiley hears the story of yet another ousted man, who heard the Russians knew in advance about Jim Prideaux' coming. Toby Esterhase dismissed him for alcoholism.
Experimental verification of the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution Updated 2025-06-17 +Created 1970-01-01
Most applications of the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution confirm the theory, but don't give a very direct proof of its curve.
Here we will try to gather some that do.
It is hard to say if this channel is good because of the awesome information, or if because of the absolute cutness of that British presenter. Maybe it is both.
