(ignore this thread, thanks)

Here some typy math
[math] f \, : \, a \to b [/math]
[math] g \, : \,\prod_{a:A} P(a) [/math]

And some code:

Bye Yogesh :)

Also a reply to >>8423518:
The competitors aren't in practice used to execute code, they are compiled to type check (check if a proof of a theorem is valid). Agda and Idris are the Haskell dialects, and Agda also uses questionable characters, pic related.
There's the "for programming" book coming out for Idris and it has an irc channel that seems to work

Mhm, btw., what can one say about inverses of functions in dependent function types.

E.g. there may be
[math] f^{-1}:b\to a [/math]

But what about
[math] g^{-1}: ? \to a [/math]

>>8424871

Depends on P(a).

>>8425334
Mhm, a little vague, but my call for an "inverse" surely was even more vague.

I also notice that my notation wasn't very good.
To make it consistent, if

[math] f : a \to b [/math]

then we should wrtie

[math] g : \prod_{x:a} b(x) [/math]

I now recognize that if we keep track of the argument for g via

[math] G : a \to \sum_{x:a} b(x) [/math]
[math] G(x) := (x, g(x)) [/math]

and

[math] \pi_1 : \sum_{x:a} b(x) \to a [/math]
[math] \pi_1 (x, y) := x [/math]

we get

[math] \pi_1 \circ G = id_a [/math]

In the other direction, just to specficy the domain, we must construct the type of elements that make up some section construction from g.

So if mass has no effect on the rate of acceleration physics, as evidenced by a feather and hammer falling at the same rate in a vacuum, and the speed of falling is really determined by aerodynamics, than how come if I were to place an egg at the bottom a plastic bag it would fall faster than if the bag were empty. Wouldn't the plastic bag negate the aerodynamic advantage of the egg and fall at the same rate?

Not trolling, but it makes me wonder if this is all bullshit.

Have you ever heard of air resistance? Retard.
>>
>>8424789
Yes, and if the bag is enveloping the egg than shouldn't it fall at the same rate of the bag because the air isn't falling around the egg thus it should make it fall at the same rate as the bag because air resistance is equal, yet in real life the egg will pull the bag down around it and land very fast. Did you even read my post?
>>
>>8424792
I guess you really are retarded. The bag may have the same shape, but it does not have the same density. Wow. So it falls faster. Incredible.
The egg alone falls faster than the bag alone. The combination of the two falls at a rate somewhere in between those two, closer to that of the egg. Is that what you're asking?

How do you network in STEM?

In a classroom setting, there seems to be two groups. Quiet betas and loud obvious career-destined socialites who seem to go to all the seminars and placement fairs.

My friends are starting to make fun of me and say all i do is worry too much and complain about my worrying so they have begun to call me Anxiety-chan.

How do you worry less, and reduce anxiety?

I was diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and my doctor prescribed me Xanax, but it feels like it only helps when i take it, and as soon as i stop the anxiety comes back even worse...

Compared to other engineering majors is it really that hard? I am a Computer Engineering major but the curriculum at my school for my major kind of sucks. The EE curriculum looks much more interesting and solid. As Comp Eng major I basically taking standard CS classes with some EE courses sprinkled in. Is it the conceptual part of it that is hard? Understanding all the physics? Pls don't bully. Thank you.

Major in EE. You're pretty much an idiot if you go into engineering and don't do EE or ME. 100% serious. Get in before it becomes a meme like CS.
>>
Some places do CE good, some don't. When in doubt stick to EE, you don't want to become a CS with some shoddy electronics skills. The good CE courses will be grounded in EE modules but have some CS topics/modules on top, to do it the other way is a bit dangerous.

The topics aren't hard per se, it's just keeping on top of the work load and building on the knowledge you acquired from previous modules.
>>
I'm just a student of EE ... I have a lot of friends in computer engineering and I can say that everything that you study we study too, but more ... Our graduation consists of automation, telecommunication, electronics, energy and much more. It is very difficult, because we are full of all subjects and we have no time for anything else, a lot of projects with no interval between them

Rather than asking why it's true, you should be asking if we aren't laughing at you right now for being too dumb to study at university so you would know for yourself.

If you looked up at the sun from earth without atmosphere what coud you see with human eyes?
This considering that magically you would still be alive and your eyes won't be damaged by space rays and the void.
I suppose the sun will be white and the sky black, but could you still see stars and would the sun appear as a defined circle or more like seen in pic related?

A very bright light

The sun would be far to bright to see stars and the sun at the same time, it would be like your image except far brighter and less defined

What's the most scientifically successful kind of pest creature? The most virulent, survivable, easily-breeding animal?

Something that if you see one member of, no matter how good you thought you were at cleaning up the place, you are virtually guaranteed to find additional members of that species infesting the place.

My vote is for the rat

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWVw-j8eYSk

Watch him open the door and just thousands of rats pour out in an endless stream, its even more impressive that these are mammals, not insects...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPXUG8q4jKU

What kind of scientific countermeasures are useful against creatures like this? Are we losing the arms race against pestilences worldwide?

Hey /sci/, so while I was driving yesterday I noticed that the left turn of an intersection had an unusual curve on the dotted guiding line; that got me thinking about what the equation of the absolute maximum distance between two points may be, while the function still remains one to one? I'm not very smart but this has kind of been on my mind for the last few hours - the line acts like a limit but it obviously does reach that limit. I believe it also is essentially 1/4th of a circle as well. Pic related of course.

I'd really appreciate any help.

What do you mean by that ?

>>8423585
There is no maximum length curve between two points. You can always add "squiggles" to make it longer
