Simple to state but hard to prove Updated 2025-07-16
One of the most beautiful things in mathematics are theorems of conjectures that are very simple to state and understand (e.g. for K-12, lower undergrad levels), but extremely hard to prove.
This is in contrast to conjectures in certain areas where you'd have to study for a few months just to precisely understand all the definitions and the interest of the problem statement.

Brits can't say "no" directly Updated 2025-07-16
If you ask for something, and they don't want to do it for whatever reason, they won't say no. They will say "I could do it, sure, no problem" and just never do it, nor explain why they don't want to do it!
And then if you don't understand that this actually meant "no" and push things further, they might eventually say "no", but they might become offended that you didn't understand them at first!
Please just say at least "yes" or "no". And if you're feeling specially nice, say "why no" which helps a lot the asker sometimes, though that's optional since people are entitled to their privacy. Just don't waste our poor foreigners' time with "bhlarmeh"!
Perhaps East Asia is a similar and more severe case of the same problem. But at least in their case it is so obvious that you already expect it.
The polar opposite apparently being Germans and the like.

Now deleted body with some fixes, bullshit deletion procedure they have:The best comment:I've worked with people from all over the globe, but its when i work Work with British people it's always frustrating.From conversations to communicating what they would like me to do for them in notes. Never direct. Confusing and unclear. When I ask politely what they are asking me to do I get some patronising passive aggressive BS.Most times I don't even have to ask questions or clear things up. I try to make sense of everything, but sometimes I have to ask. In my job its important that I have the exact facts. I need 100% clarity from colleagues, so decisions I make don't come back to bite me on the ass. My clients don't have time for British behaviour like that. I don't have time for that.Why are Brits do indirect and passive aggressive in the workplace?

How I Faked Being American interview with Jack Barsky
. Source. The former East German spy undercover in the USA says:I had learned to speak English and write it as well as anybody, but I hadn't become an American culturally.My behavior was still very German.Having now learned the difference between the German style and the American style, I have been trying to adjust and soften the way I'm approaching things.Germans are in your face, they will tell you what they think even if you don't ask for it, and they will criticize you at any chance they get.And that was me.Americans will be a little more passive, sometimes passive aggressive, and they wrap everything, every piece of bad news, in some kind of a velvet cloth so it doesn't hurt that much.
Cool data embedded in the Bitcoin blockchain Ordinal ASCII art inscription Updated 2025-07-16
It was obtained by casually scrolling down the list of the largest text ordinal inscription on less until patience ran out.
Some of them are dedicated ASCII art inscriptions, others are just small highlights to other more important text like code.
Although tere is some element of commercialism in some those inscriptions, a bit like what is rampant in the images, some of them are honestly just cool and possibly novel.
Ordinal ruleset inscription collections:
- Humongous surfers. These are very large ASCII arts, by far the largest on the chain. Being so large allows for shades of gray to be encoded on the average luminosith of individual letters:

But you can see them by inspecting the HTML code, e.g. at: ../view-source:https://ordinals.com/content/a66a54878d428fc7bdf5758ea3bf2ebe1c76750043c22dc6ff05d7cb5a0c0a37i0.By looking at the short JavaScript code, the page seems to select one plain background color at random, but it didn't seem to work very well, we always get the same color?

Our algorithm is designed to give a rarity score to tweets based on their visibility and interaction. We take into account metadata such as views, likes, and retweets, and assign a grade to each category. These grades are then used to determine the rarity score of the tweet. We believe that this system will create a more just and equitable online community, where individuals are rewarded for meaningful contributions, rather than for clickbait or sensationalism. - tx 61ab46f60128c36a0dd9f9503711d38eef8737e88e6b78cad7365a54fdac7aa4: twitter.com/minidogeart "Ordinal Mini Doges"

Institutional video about the 1974 single electron experiment by Merli, Missiroli, Pozzi from the University of Bologna.
Then actually show the result live on a television screen, where you see the interference patterns only at higher electron currents, and then on photographic film.
This was elected "the most beautiful experiment" by readers of Physics World in 2002.

qiskit/initialize.py Updated 2025-07-16
In this example we will initialize a quantum circuit with a single CNOT gate and see the output values.
By default, Qiskit initializes every qubit to 0 as shown in the qiskit/hello.py. But we can also initialize to arbitrary values as would be done when computing the output for various different inputs.
Output:which we should all be able to understand intuitively given our understanding of the CNOT gate and quantum state vectors.
