  1. Hey AI, here's a probability for ya...You'll either be a side-project of humans, fumbling about for the next 7 decades trying to make you do something useful, or the humans will unknowingly make the right combination of choices whereby you actually become 'self-aware' (and I say that with tongue firmly in cheek), and thereafter run rampage. It's pretty even odds at the mo, due to the unpredictability of stupidity.

  3. Take a set, 𝑥. Is it finite or infinite? Well what definition do you use?

    ① ∃𝑦 ∈ ω₀ 𝑥 ≈ 𝑦 ; There is a natural number, 𝑦, such that you may may map 𝑦 one-to-one onto the set 𝑥, enumerating each of its members. So 𝑥 is finite for the same reason { 1, 2, 3 } is finite.

    ② ¬ ∃𝑧 ∈ (On ∖ ω₀) 𝑥 ≈ 𝑧 ; There is no such infinite ordinal, 𝑧, such that you may map 𝑧 one-to-one onto the set 𝑥. So 𝑥 is finite because ω₀, the smallest infinite ordinal, cannot be mapped 1-to-1 into it.

    Do ① and ② say the same thing?

    Obviously, ① implies ② in all cases for if it didn't there would be at least one natural number, 𝑦, which may be used to enumerate at least one infinite ordinal, 𝑧.

    But does ② imply ①? If ② doesn't imply ① then there must be sets which can't be be placed side-by-side with any infinite ordinal and yet can't be placed side-by-side with any finite ordinal. In short, there must be sets which can't be well-ordered. But the axiom of choice says all sets may be well-ordered, even if it doesn't provide a recipe.

    Not only does the axiom of choice say all sets can be well-ordered and thus ② implies ①, but assuming ② implies ① is equivalent to the axiom of choice. It was invented by Zermelo for this purpose and so that ①, ②, and 6 alternative definitions of "finite set" all mean the same thing.

    The axiom of choice is basically saying the border between finite and infinite has nothing trapped in it.

    * What kind of capitalism is possible in a world of limited resources? Arnaud Orain
    "Adapted to a world of limited resources, this "capitalism of finitude" seeks to privatize and militarize the seas and territories, impose high prices, consolidate resource "silos," and reserve exclusive markets. Drastically reducing our energy consumption is one alternative to this authoritarian capitalism, but the means to protect it remain unclear.' >>

  7. In #FElupe, a #python package of mine, I changed the API of a function: the output included two return variables (boundaries, loadcase), where the second one is nowadays mostly unused. So I added a new argument return_loadcase=None, which does not change the return behavior, but marked as deprecated. In a future major version, return_loadcase will be False by default. Now all users have at least one major version time to update existing scripts. Is this good practise or could this be improved?

  10. Our most recent paper on #SPH / #FEM coupling for offshore structures modeling with #GPUSPH has been published:

    authors.elsevier.com/c/1m3VB_h

    These kinds of works, with validation against experimental results, is always a challenging task, even for the simpler problems. Lab experiments and numerical simulations have each their own set of problems that need to be addressed, and the people working on the two sides of the fence often have a very different perspective on what should be considered trivial and not worth measuring, and what is instead crucial to the success of the experiment.

    Getting these two sides to talk to each other successfully is no walk in the park, and I wish to extend my deepest gratitude to Vito Zago, who has gone to incredible lengths both during the “science making” to make things work out, and during the manuscript submission and review process, a nearly Sisyphean task in itself.

    This simulation is still elastic, next step is to add plasticity.
