>covariances are inner products
>therefore Gaussian spaces let you do probability in terms of linear algebra
>isometries let you preserve covariances, so you can construct "white noise" and get Brownian motion and a notion of integration
FINALLY stochastic calculus makes sense

Ok so you ate something funky and now you are getting the sweats.
What you have to do is go to the bathroom and do a few squats. You'll get a little relief, use it to wash your face, neck and chest with cold water. Now go back to squatting, this might take a while, usually up to 10 minutes. Stay squatted with your feet flat on the ground until your body starts digesting again. If the sweating comes back, squat up and down a couple times, wash your upper body and go back down again. In 10 minutes you should be good to go.
My personal success rate is 3 times out of 3 so far.

why is it that we can literally invent and conjure up a definition for square root of a negative number (something that eluded us for a millennia) but cannot define division by zero? Imagine how many problems in both math and physics could be solved if we could find a definition to division by zero.

1% light speed is achievable even with conservative tech
5-10% light speed may be possible with fusion engines or nuclear pulse plate pushers.
Above 10% we prob need some strange new technology.
Faster than lightspeed, who knows if this couls be possible (advanced Albuquirre drive).

>Whether motivated by good intentions, conformity, or fear of ostracization, scientific censorship undermines both the scientific process and public trust. The authors of the “prosocial motives” paper point to “at least one obvious cost of scientific censorship: the suppression of accurate information.” When scientists claim to represent a consensus about ideas that remain in dispute—or avoid certain topics entirely—those decisions filter down through the journalistic food chain. Findings that support the social-justice worldview get amplified in the media, while disapproved topics are excoriated as disinformation. Not only do scientists lose the opportunity to form a clearer picture of the world; the public does, too. At the same time, the public notices when claims made by health officials and other experts prove to be based more on politics than on science. A new Pew Research poll finds that the percentage of Americans who say that they have a “great deal” of trust in scientists has fallen from 39 percent in 2020 to 23 percent today.

🧵 Is it true that nothing is impossible or anything is possible?

Let's say you want to lift up a 600 ton boulder with just your body alone and no external assistance or built in machines installed inside you, what if it was possible to this but we haven't figured it out? What if the only way to lift up a 600 ton boulder is by lifting it in a very certain way like a video game controller combo where you have to follow multiple steps in order to manipulate every atom of the boulder to your liking? What if levitation was possible by doing the same thing?
What if the reason why some things are labeled "impossible" is because our current knowledge doesn't understand how to solve the problem? Even some UFOs seen flying have reported to appear breaking the laws of physics.

Let [math]a,b,c[/math] be the smallest side lengths such that [math]a^2+b^2 \neq c^2[/math]. Since [math]0^2+ 0^2 = 0^2[/math], these [math]a,b,c[/math] must be strictly positive. Now consider the triangle with side lengths [math]a/2,b/2,c/2[/math]. By minimality we have [math](a/2)^2+(b/2)^2 = (c/2)^2[/math]. Rearranging this yields: [math]a^2+b^2 = c^2[/math]. But now applying the transitivity of =, we arrive at [math]c^2 \neq c^2[/math], which is impossible.
