I wonder how does the math of this stack up against using space-filling curves in Google's S2?

Going to get into introductory analysis soon too myself! The one tip that I have been given is to build intuition by taking/relearning the computational part of calculus before div…

@HiroshiSan, where do you draw the line between math and advanced math? You clearly are not a beginner abd I now wonder the intent of your question

I wholeheartedly recommend the book of proof! (Mostly because I went through it inch by inch)

Proof writing. Sat down with a textbooks and partial solutions at the back. Took a year as I had other priorities. Advice: 1.Regardless of which route you choose to go whether prob…

Mine for some reason is "By relieving the brain of all unecessary work, a good notation sets it free to concentrate on more advanced problems, and in effect increases the mental po…

I see.thanks for the info and light

Wasn't Category theory supposed to unify everything? Has it failed in doing so?

I sincerely think that the minute you stop thinking that Math cannot be applied to a problem solving situation or Math is too fancy/theoretical, the Tower of Babylon type problems …

This is what I read in this article. The author has a problem with people thinking that rote-learnt algorithms is the best thing ever, and proceeds to say nope a stash of the most …

Organization is a mathematical and algorithmic problem regardless of the context. And if you think people go to school so that they mug up algorithms, you're missing the point of s…

I don't understand this! Math is a super set of algorithmic wizardry and if you include heuristics in algorithmic wizardry (why would you not?),isn't organizational skills a part o…

I see what you mean. The symmetric part is noted. Thank you for the reply

The article states the guy says when you have n objects you have n^2 possible collisions, if you're assuming just one on one interaction and an object cannot collide with itself sh…

Resilient in what sense?able to come back and pretend like nothing happened or gloss over and hope things will be alright? Isn't that why we are trying to do away with people? Abou…

One, I think the article doesn't underline why a paper based system would be better than a paperless method other than giving examples of hacked paperless system and weird claims l…

Quite honestly, I feel if you think Haskell's beauty is somehow in any way associated with masochist mindset , you most likely think Maths is associated with a masochist mindset an…

Having learnt Haskell as my first programming language, sure it has a high learning curve but it pays off in so many ways. It is without doubt the most beautiful language ever conc…

Brilliant advice? More like overused uninspiring crap.. perhaps as uninspiring like the LinkedIn UI and everything LinkedIn ...

Thank you for the reply. The journaling part sounds very logical for anybody of any situation :) your words do ring a clarion Bell. Thank you so much

Thank you for the reply. I do appreciate the list of thoughts especially how learning new words to help in forming new concepts from math and the likes. I do cook and bake as a hob…

For the last 3 years I have been developing software of mainly the web kind. Did Clojure dev last year, some C projects before that and have a bunch of scala projects this year and…
