Ah, yes, the classic tale where geniuses discover that deep learning is just in disguise 🤯. Because clearly, neural networks are just playdoh for the mathematically elite 🧠. Who knew all those AI breakthroughs were just arts and crafts for adults? 🎨👶

Who is someone walking around with 24GB of RAM?

Someone with a desktop $25-60K #Cray supercomputer.

Cray CX1 specs
#24 GB RAM
24 core Xenon #cpu

likely #topology :
quad core 64bit (dual core, cpu0 cpu1) cpu [with 8GB RAM x 3] times 3 = 24
24 x 2 = 48
48 x 2 = upto 96 cores!

A unifying toolbox for handling persistence data - by Aymeric Stamm, Jason Cory Brunson

Topological data analysis (TDA) is a rapidly growing field that uses techniques from algebraic topology to analyze the shape and structure of data.

The {phutil} package provides a unified toolbox for handling persistence data. It offers consistent data structures and methods that work seamlessly with outputs from various TDA packages.

On /r/math, someone asked about the motivation for the axioms of a topology. They are a bit mysterious. But this comment (reddit.com/r/math/comments/1km ) was super insightful!

The idea is to capture notions of "closeness" and to be able to define continuous functions in a way that's 100% compatible with our usual real analysis definition of continuous function.

There's the classic "inverse of an open set is always open" definition, but that's equivalent to this one, which I think is far more intuitive, and also brings in our idea of closeness. From the comment:

Say that \(x\) "touches" a set \(A\) if \(x\) is in the closure of \(A\).

A continuous function is one for which, for any point \(x\) and set \(A\), if \(x\) touches \(A\), then \(f(x)\) touches \(f(A)\).

This is equivalent to the above inverse function definition; it avoids using the inverse function, and directly addresses our intuition: for continuous functions, two points in the domain that are close to each other are close in the codomain. Moving a tiny bit in the domain moves a tiny bit in the image.

Next step: invent time machine, go back to undergrad @ddrake studying topology, and tell him about this.

Do any of you know why in algebraic topology degeneracy maps are conventionally labelled with an s and face maps with a d?
