I’m doing a lecture at my Alma mater to sophomore (2nd year) students on software engineering and originally wanted to do a rehash of the one I did in 2024. But throwing the whole 2024 out and starting from scratch. My angle will probably be “don’t wait to be spoon fed, not now” Quoting @thorstenball Most predictions I see are still way too conservative. Here's mine Related

Mathematical physicist at UC Riverside. Wrote This Week's Finds in Mathematical Physics and now the Azimuth blog on mathematics, physics and environmental science.
Here's some crazy geometry in 4, 5 and 6 dimensions: The 4-demicube has 8 vertices. It lives in 4 dimensions. You get it from a 4-dimensional cube - which has 16 vertices - by keeping every other vertex, throwing away half. That leaves 8. What are its top-dimensional faces, aka 'facets'? Surprise: there's only one kind! All of them are regular tetrahedra. In higher dimensions the demicube has two kinds of facet - one from the cube's corners, one from the cube's facets. But in 4 dimensions the two kinds happen to be the same shape: the tetrahedron! That's why the 4-demicube is especially symme… Related

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
