A well written #novel sucks down the reader, until he becomes hopelessly enmeshed into the fabric of the story.
A well written #textbook hoists up the reader, until he could see far beyond the edge of the subject matter.
But people are no longer #reading and #writing, these days. So, who cares?
Ah, but #LLMs care.
How did society get here....🤦♂️

Keeping busy with Sudoku, Wordle, Crosswords, and mining textbooks for statements to practice proving in #Metamath ...
Inspired by this video playlist on #RealAnalysis #Math
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYPU-RArkLZNwMZ55-y8FZZEeY7zCJX59
Which was created from https://www.jirka.org/ra/ _Basic Analysis:
Introduction to Real Analysis_ by Jiří Lebl. #JiříLebl a #CreativeCommons (4.0) free #math #textbookIn Metamath's compressed format, my proofs of strong induction over the natural numbers took 316 bytes, well-ordering of the natural numbers: 376 bytes, 2ⁿ⁻¹ ≤ n! : 1204 bytes, formula for finite sum of geometric series: 2566 bytes. The last has 147 steps, some of which are reused and some of which depend on up to 8 prior steps and on a truncated library of 30477 statements of syntax, axioms, definitions, and theorems from the wider world of Metamath.

@DeliaChristina just like Israel "ending the war" with Palestine so that they can continue their genocide with less media and public scrutiny. #textbook

Blocked by person refusing to believe a #Mathematics #textbook and #proofs because of a random #Wikipedia article that doesn't cite any Maths textbooks, and in fact has proofs in it that actually contradict the conclusion! (the series 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, 0.0001,... never reaches zero, even as the series approaches infinity - it's a hyperbola with an asymptote of 0 - which you think would be self-evident, and yet here we are) Welcome to the #disinformation age! 😡

I just read the introduction to this new book "Human-Centered Programming Languages" by Rose Bohrer (<5 min read, and I read pretty slowly), and I love it!
https://bookish.press/hcpl/chapter1
Can't wait to get the time to read the rest.

Seems that igM in the blood stream never comes alone and interacts with CD5L (a protein that is not generated by B cells). Congrats to the teams of Albert Heck and my dear colleagues and their teams from #Sanquin, #Gestur Vidarsson and #Theo Rispens -
The Czech educator Jan Amos Comenius was born on this day in 1592.
These images show a selection of musical instruments, with their names and properties in English and #Latin, in a 1659 translation of Comenius' illustrated book Orbis Pictus (the world in pictures), one of the first illustrated textbooks for children.#otd
