As the comment above stated - so that the numbers don't grow too large

Our testers (China and India) know that when they see KURWA or DUPA in logs that to send it straight to the polish site, we are considering adding a hook to check for those

> i.e. hoofed animals can only walk or sprint

I did horse riding for a bit, that is not true. There is a lot of speed ranges you can choose from

I don't doubt the results but I cannot imagine how that can be true, I'm not fit but I've had many 20+hours hikes to the high mountain peaks but if I run to a bus stop when I'm late I'm tired beyond belief and I just cannot maintain running, have to stop

This is actually a harmful definition, both (1,1) and (0,2) tensors can be written as a matrix but they are very different. It's like calling vector an array but vectors require vector space and arrays are just arrays. It doesn't help that std::vector is very common in CS but 'pushing back' to a mathematical vector just doesn't make any sense

Although not exactly what you 're looking for I also have similar itch - youtube channel 'New Mind' have some nice videos in this area, check it out, maybe it will be something you find interesting

Although I do agree with your overall sentiment

> the problem is "just" gaining traction and having a good plan for moderating The Stuff People On Internet Will Upload. See GitTorrent for another (unrelated) example of a good idea that never gained traction.

maybe there is a reason why github gained traction

I found that the sooner you ditch 'human intuition' in learning maths/physiscs the better you will be at it

> Finding a cycle is hard!

I mean, it is easy in the size of the graph, you constructed implicitly an exponentially large graph, I don't think it's in the spirit of GP point where the hamiltonian cycle is exponentially (in the size of the graph) hard to find

The most unique thing about 4-dimensional space imho is that some simple manifolds like e.g R4 have uncountably many differential structures possible, in lower dimensions there is only one, in higher - finitelly many.

When push comes to shove I'm not sure we have enough experimental physicists...

> Optical media has a lifespan too. We have paper from hundreds of years ago that is in decent condition.

All the optical media from hundreds of years ago degraded? What a shame

The only thing worse than moderation is the lack of moderation

Your 'duh's escalated quite quickly, I had a Euclid postulates feelings when reading it - first four are 'duh' and then the fifth one comes swinging.

(by the way I think you have your Newton's law order wrong, that's the second one you're referering to)

One just assumes Occam's razor and you're good to go in a vast majority of cases
