I regret to report that sleeping, drinking water, going on long walks, and working out continues to work wonders for mental health

I’m so glad I live during the period of human history in which we invented YouTube. I just watched a documentary about butter. I suppose this is another way of saying that I’m grateful to have turned in my last graded problem set ever!

I wish media did a better job framing “scaling laws” for lay folks. they’re empirical best-fit models on a log scale. 10% more data doesn’t help you, you need 10x. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

there’s a man on my flight to Austin wearing three cowboy hats and a baseball cap all stacked on top of each other. I cannot make this up.

it’s good to leave cities sometimes to remind yourself what food is supposed to cost. take-out Chinese in my family’s town in NC is $10. as god intended.

the profound disappointment after watching a beautifully produced YouTube math explainer only to realize that the video was just some guy explaining his intuition but didn’t actually teach anything instructive womp womp

a good life has many stages. birth, bar mitzvah, recognizing that functions are vectors, marriage, teaching your children that functions are vectors, death, etc.

kind of interesting- on Twitter I had 15k but ~10k came from rock licking. so compared to the “organic/topical” 5k, I’m already up to ~half that from starter packs. that’s 4 years on Twitter vs <4 weeks here. it’ll be interesting to see if there’s organic growth after starter pack growth saturates.

many nonlinear control texts derive a quantity “weak local nonlinear observability” that they claim is similar to but not exactly “nonlinear observability” via the lie bracket. what stops this quantity from being exact in the case that the weak local observability matrix is full rank in every state?
