OpenAI by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
In 2019, OpenAI transitioned from non-profit to for-profit
so what's that point of "Open" in the name anymore??

Interference pattern by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
What you see along a line or plane in a wave interference.
Notably used for the pattern of the double-slit experiment.

This seems like a decent option, although it has bugs coming in and out all the time! Also it is quite hard to learn to use.
To get started:
  • import a clip
  • drag it onto the track area
Shortucts:
To set the video length, search for "set outpoint" on "monitor".
Add subtitles:
  • Effects
  • Dynamic text
then drag on top of the video track. To add only to part of the video, cut it up first.
Preview has no sound on Ubuntu 20.10. Fixed as of Ubuntu 22.04.
Sound worked on Ubuntu 21.04 though, but it then soon crashed with:
 = = SET EFFECT PARAM:  "rect"  =  0=1188 0 732 242
MUTEX LOCK!!!!!!!!!!!! slotactivateeffect:  1
// // // RESULTING REQUIRED SCENE:  1
Object 0x557293592da0 destroyed while one of its QML signal handlers is in progress.
Most likely the object was deleted synchronously (use QObject::deleteLater() instead), or the application is running a nested event loop.
This behavior is NOT supported!
qrc:/qml/EffectToolBar.qml:80: function() { [native code] }
Killed
amazing.
On Ubuntu 22.04 haven't crashed yet.
Replication crisis by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
Of course, if academic journals require greater reproducibility for publication, then the cost per paper increases.
However, the total cost has to be smaller than the cost everyone who reads the paper spends to reproduce, no?
The truth is, part of the replication crisis is also due to research groups not wanting to share their precious secrets with others, so they can keep ahead of the publication curve, or maybe spin off a startup.
And when it comes to papers, things are even crazier: big companies manage to publish white papers in peer reviewed journals.
Ciro Santilli wants to help in this area with his videos of all key physics experiments project idea.
Cool initiative. Papers that do not share source code should be banned from peer reviewed academic journals.
Open reading frame by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
Area between a start codon and an stop codon.
This term is useful because:
Gospel of Matthew 7:13:
Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.
Ciro Santilli really likes this one, because he feels that where many people go, it is useless to go again. It is much better to explore that which few can do, but which many will need.
Also known as being hipster.
