"Theoretical computer science has over the years sought more and more refined answers to the question of which mathematical truths are knowable by #finite beings like ourselves, bounded in #time and space and subject to physical laws."

@solar_chase #nuclear isn't "clean", and everyone who claims so has never seen the any #Uranium mine, #refinery or has a Spent Fuel Storage Facility in their backyard.
- It's also quite #finite like #FossilFuels and we better use those "spicy rocks" for something better than just "boiling water to make a turbine go brr" cuz any #HeatSource, espechally #Geothermal and the #Sun, can do that too and cleaner!

RAID6 的 Erasure code 實作
Daily Hacker News 上看到的紋章，「Erasure Coding for Distributed Systems」這篇討論了 Erasure code。
以前在學校裡面學 coding theory 的時候有學到一些經典的演算法，尤其是一定會教到 Reed-Solomon error correction 這個演算法，不過實務上 Reed-Solomon 因為用到 finite field 運算 (又稱 Galois field，所以簡寫常用 )，所以效率並不算好，在 RAID 系統上面除非 controller 的

@g3om4c to me that's criminally "#WastefulComputing"...
Also wasting the very #finite nuclear fuel to boil water to make a turbine go brrr and churn out electricity is not only insulting to the universe in terms of wastefulness but also a bad application for said resources that could be used more efficiently in more pressing matters of #science and #technology.
- It is the technological equivalent of buying a car just so one can charge their smartphone off it's 12V socket in the dashboard.

Q: What are Eleventy’s states?
While trying to understand Eleventy better, I found myself wondering how I would draw a state diagram of Eleventy.
(Aside: Not a diagram I have a lot of experience creating, but I find looking at them useful!)
I know Eleventy is not _implemented_ as a finite state machine...but is it possible to _represent_ its states like one?

@Elucidating Given that for every programming languague there are very much finite possibilities to do something efficient and retain readability of code, that'll inherently happen!
For example there are #finite ways you can actually boot an operating system on every architecture - sometimes there may just be a single one.
In fact, I'd be surprised if #Linux and #Windows don't have several lines of identical [assembly and/or C] #code by virtue of how #ix86 & #amd64 work as architectures...
Just like there are a very finite permutations of car designs in terms of engine placement, drivetrain, steering wheel, etc. given the constraints and requirements regulators in key markets (EU, USA, Japam, "P.R." China, India, ...) mandate for road-legality.
It may sound diminishing but given any engineering task, equally qualified and trained personnel will provide identical reaults by virtue of having the same thoughts at hand.
Programming in this regard is like a mixture between scrabble, pipedream and electric installations:
Repeating Challenges and very much finite correct solutions.
In this regard, if said model was trained by the same reference literature the programmer used, it'll literally spit out the same code!!!
Crazy how much difference the right data structure / #algorithm for a task makes.
This week I learned about #Deterministic #Finite #Automata and #Nondeterministic Finite Automata just to redo my clunky #AdventOfCode2023 day 12 challenge, written in #Rust #RustLang
Runtime for part 1 dropped from 1-2secs to milliseconds. Part 2 also milliseconds 😮
Are there any good Rust crates for DFAs/NFAs?
Many people solved that problem with #Dynamic #Programming - something else for the learn list 😉
@TwraSun #Bildbeschreibung fehlt...
Ansonsten #FragWarum - vielleicht weil jene #embedded sind mit den #Energiekonzernen die #finite, #fossile #Energie [und ja auch #Atomkraft gehört dazu, nur weil's mineralisch ist wird's nicht weniger endlich!] produzieren und nutzen???
In a #VirtualMoney world, if there's a #HardCap on the #MoneySupply, how could #deflation be a problem? #Virtual #money's #divisibility is not like that of physical things like #gold & other #preciousmetals whose practical use dissipate the more they're divided, the smaller they get. Virtual money has #InfiniteDivisibility. A hardcap is not really a limit if the #finite supply can be divided #infinite-ly. This is good because it solves the problem of #inflation & deflation together. #Crypto #BTC
We are happy to announce that our Research in Teams visitors Naoyuki Kanomata and Akifumi Sako published a new paper on #Finite Φ3-Φ4 #HybridMatrix Model.
Look into it if your favourite field is #HighEnergyPhysics. 🔣
