Dams mess with ecosystems. These little guys are a cool alternative.

@amiloradovsky originality is only rarely a virtue and often a burden, I'd wager.

I'm 🙋 pretty ✨cool 😎 if you run 🏃 the numbers 📊

"What Is Improbable Research?

Improbable research is research that makes people laugh and then think.

We collect improbable research. Real research, about anything and everything, from everywhere. Research that's maybe good or bad, important or trivial, valuable or worthless." https://www.improbable.com/about/

Get excited with us: Our completely re-built Android app will be ready for beta soon! 😀Here's a sneak peek:

So, I spent my afternoon at university in an effort to be more productive and less distracted.
And it actually worked out very well! I have done more than I usually do on a Sunday and now I have the whole evening to myself!

I'm going to try to replicate that success by spending a fixed amount of time at university to work on stuff. As a tradeoff, I probably won't have to do anything university relate while at home.

Teaching someone is never lost time. It's an increase of shared knowledge.

Intriguing! A brick that's like the 3D analogue of A-series paper: you can cut it in half to produce two bricks similar to the original

It means that when you're tired, you're less critical of your own decisions.

For people who tend to, out of perfectionism, kill their own ideas before they are ripe, fatigue is one way of loosening the bonds so that they can actually get something to a desirable state.

I am a phd student in computer science.
My current research interest is mesh parametrization for texture mapping.
I joined mathstodon to find people which understand what I am talking about when it comes to math, interesting discussions about science related stuff and possibly some math humor as well.

Oh, and there is also internal tension, making the material very stiff but fragile. Forming when the cooling process went very fast.

This metaphor, I suppose, could be done more precise. And reminds me of the Santa Fe Institute approach, e.g. comparing the capital to a catalyst in a chemical reaction.
Generally, it's a pretty standard view that life in general, and human society in particular, are "merely" a type of (non-linear) thermodynamic phenomena.

States, and generally rigid vertical organizations, in human society appear as crystal grains within a melted material as the temperature decreases below a certain level. Their size depends on the speed of "cooling down" and affects overall properties of the resulting material. In principle, using certain special techniques a mono-crystal could be grown, having properties, very different from the commonly observed poly-crystalline structures.
