Readit News* Enter quaternions; things get more profound.
* Investigate why multiplicative inverse of i is same as its additive inverse.
* Experiment with (1+i)/(1-i).
* Explore why i^i is real number.
* Ask why multiplication should become an addition for angles.
* Inquire the significance of the unit circle in the complex plane.
* Think bout Riemann's sphere.
* Understand how all this adds helps wave functions and quantum amplitudes.
Quaternions: not profound, C is complete, quirky but useful representation of SO(3)
Inverses: fun fact coincidence
1+i/1-i: not sure what to experiment with here
i^i: gateway to riemann surfaces.
Adding angles: comes out like this, that's the point of exp(i phi)
Unit circle: roots of unity?
Riemann sphere: cool stuff!
Quantum stuff: mathematical physicist here, no need to sell this one!
I’ll just stick to environment vars or something code
That said, the book is very dense; for me it was just too much the first time I tried to read it. After circling back to it after a while it gets much easier, because you know what parts you really need (which is a common pattern for me at least with everything academic).
I have 0 telemetry on Arch Linux.
Assuming Apple itself doesn't bypass Little Snitch, I don't even think Apple is doing the level of telemetry Microsoft does.
I bought a Mac for my next laptop, and I have 0 need for Windows, I have been maining Linux for like six years now, and anything that needs me to use Windows is usually also available on Mac.
Your move Microsoft. Give me an OS for power users that isn't full of marketing driven development.
Act II get's better as you unlock more movement and the lore develops. There is some unique stuff there. Boses are also fine for me, random summons are annoying but that's what you have tools for, kill them immediatelly.
I wonder whether Silksong’s traps scratch that itch, or whether they’re just annoying.
- focus 100% on Firefox Desktop & Mobile - just a fast solid minimalist browser (no AI, no BS) - other features should be addons - privacy centric - builtin, first-class, adblocker - run on donations - partner with Kagi - layoff 80% of the non-tech employees
I worked for them for many years, I guarantee you that Mozilla will be fine without all the non-sense people, just put engineers in charge.
