Basically a precise statement of "quantum entanglement is spooky".

Big O notation Updated 2025-07-16
Module bound above, possibly multiplied by a constant:
is defined as:
E.g.:
  • . For , is enough. Otherwise, any will do, the bottom line will always catch up to the top one eventually.

Bill Nye Updated 2025-07-16
Maybe we need these people, maybe we do.
The problem as with many well known science communicators is that he falls too much on the basic side of the the missing link between basic and advanced.

Football Updated 2025-07-16
Football is a synonym for association football, can we be done with that! The word "soccer" is an aberration.
Bisection (software engineering) Updated 2025-07-16
One of the Holiest age old debugging techniques!
The cool thing about bisection is that it is a brainless process: unlike when using a debugger, you don't have to understand anything about the system, and it incredibly narrows down the problem cause for you. Not having to think is great!
for loop Updated 2025-07-16
The for loop is a subcase of the while loop.
One theoretical motivation for its existence is that it has the fundamental property that we are immediately certain it will terminate, unlike while loops with arbitrary conditions.
Primitive recursive functions are the complexity class that divides those two.
Reverse transcriptase Updated 2025-07-16
Converts RNA to DNA, i.e. the inverse of transcription. Found in viruses such as Retrovirus, which includes e.g. HIV.
