The Godfather by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVV0r6CmEsFzCodipONmNiROhYCUWyz_U interview with Walter Murch by Web of Stories. He worked on sound design for all The Godfather films, and tells some interesting details about it. He's just super nice in general otherwise. E.g.:

OAuth by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
The fatal flaw of OAuth is that websites have to enable specific providers, they can't just automatically select the correct OAuth for a given email domain. This means that the vast majority of websites will only provide the most widely popular providers such as Google, and the like, which means people won't have decent privacy.
So you are just better off with password logins and a decent password manager.
Group of Lie type by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
In the classification of finite simple groups, groups of Lie type are a set of infinite families of simple lie groups. These are the other infinite families besides te cyclic groups and alternating groups.
A decent list at: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_finite_simple_groups, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_of_Lie_type is just too unclear. The groups of Lie type can be subdivided into:
The first in this family discovered were a subset of the Chevalley groups by Galois: , so it might be a good first one to try and understand what it looks like.
TODO understand intuitively why they are called of Lie type. Their names , seem to correspond to the members of the classification of simple Lie groups which are also named like that.
But they are of course related to Lie groups, and as suggested at Video "Yang-Mills 1 by David Metzler (2011)" part 2, the continuity actually simplifies things.
