Sorta not really related but Freya's video on splines ("The Continuity of Splines") is a virtually perfect resource if you're interested in learning about... well... splines.

The education system creates scarcity of knowledge to increase the profit of investment and spending, everything complex can be broken down into simple forms.

Sounds as a conspiracy theory

[-] ComradePorkRoll@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

Everything dealing with capitalism ends up sounding like a conspiracy theory. You're like "of course people wouldn't actually take this thing we, as humans, need and sell it," when suddenly air has been commodified and those who can't afford it are dlseen as not deserving of air.

Invented in the 50s, Fortran = FORmula Translating language. It was basically created to solve this sort of problem.

I think gamedev or I guess graphics programming, visualize maths pretty well. I literally quit high school because I could never make any progress in several areas, including math class. But once I read/watch more about gamedev, programming, graphics programming on my own, I got to understand many mathematical terminologies better than I have ever been taught in any school.

Freya is a really good programming maths communicator so it doesn't surprise me

I don't know her, so maybe my question is stupid, but does she explain math without using code? I, honestly, am too stupid to programing, I don't understand it. I understand summary, not the second one

Wouldn't reducer be more precise?

[-] Faresh@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

I think this is pretty much the imperative equivalent of foldl (\acc i -> acc + 3*i) 0 [1..4].
