First, experiments, please how do you determine it and how it helps predict the future: chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/42066/is-there-a-way-to-experimentally-measure-entropy

No YouTube video? Really?

Not "Yt" because that is already "Yttrium". God.

What a material:

Elon Musk's attempt.

Most commonly, boundary conditions such as the Dirichlet boundary condition are taken to be fixed values in time.

But it also makes sense to think about cases where those values vary in time.

Some bibliography:

A set of axioms is consistent if they don't lead to any contradictions.

When a set of axioms is not consistent, false can be proven, and then everything is true, making the set of axioms useless.

Some stars are so close that we can actually see their angles move with time due to the relative motion between them and the Sun, e.g. Proxima Centauri!

Essentially, defining an holomorphic function on any open subset, no matter how small, also uniquely defines it everywhere.

This is basically why it makes sense to talk about analytic continuation at all.

One way to think about this is because the Taylor series matches the exact value of an holomorphic function no matter how large the difference from the starting point.

Therefore a holomorphic function basically only contains as much information as a countable sequence of numbers.

I also believe in publishing null results, so here goes.

Thick cardboard paper and Gorilla Tape: the intense Sun heat made the cardboard bend, and even the Gorilla tape could not hold it, leading to light leakage. Even worse, it started to smell a bit, and I got afraid that it could catch fire, so don't do this! Maybe I will try coating with aluminium foil next time, but I'm afraid it might stick to the glass. In any case, even if those setups work, your room may be permanently very dark depending on how far the window opens, which can lead to other problems such as mold. Another downside of this method is that the tape is extremely sticky, and especially difficult to remove if it touches the glass, where you can't use metallic items to scrape it off without scratching the glass. I had to get a solvent and use a lot of elbow grease to get rid of it.

I have tried a few sleeping masks, but none of them were enough on their own. There is always some light leakage around the nose, especially as you turn around in the night. And some of them are too hot. I have tried:

I also considered getting one of those "Perfect Fit Blinds" www.blindsdirect.co.uk/perfect-fit-roller-blinds (archive) which fit between the glass and the insulation. This looks like it could work. But I didn't go for it in the end because my window has 3 glass panels, so I would have to get three of those blinds separately.
