How is e_e0 defined? "e0-th fixed point of a |-> w^a" doesn't make sense as the "fixed point" stuff only work for integers

sup{e_w,e_w^w,e_w^w^w, etc.}

Code: Select all

function X(input)
	-- H(P,I) returns true if P(I) halts
	if H(input,input) then
		while true do end
	else
		print(":-)")
	end
end
H(X,X) -- does not return because halting problem is not solvable.
H(function (input) H(X,X) end,nil) -- returns false because H(X,X) not halts

How to answer every question where the search space is too large:

let's just wait ten years. Then we can search 32x faster and with naïve methods we could find 5-cell-larger objects, according to moore's law

I apparently was cited by an abstract on theoretical physics by this random guy named Willem Francois Esterhuyse.
The reason was that I had edited a Wikipedia article concerning pions, and whatever citation engine the man used decided to pull the name of the user who had last edited the page as their attribution. Obviously, the paper was derided as not drawing from credible sources, with one forum user calling it full of BS.

Moral: Never cite Wikipedia pages in scientific writing.

EDIT: Now that I peruse this 'abstract' a little further, it's fundamentally awry in the worst ways possible. I don't even know how this guy managed to get this published, anyway.

Something like that happened to me once as well, there was this very dubious "textbook" on chemistry (on Google Books) that essentially just copied a bunch of Wikipedia articles, and they then listed every single user who had ever edited those Wikipedia pages as references at the end of the book.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hair
See? Totally legitimate. No suspicious tricks. No size stacking to hide tags, nothing!
Not even a suspicious quote box at the bottom! Just some mysterious whitespace to stare in while you consider clicking the link.

You don't see any size tags here. ^^^
You're just vividly hallucinating. This is a wikipedia page.

Re: alternate word:

Bump
Orbital -> Ordinal

In atomic theory and quantum mechanics, an atomic ordinal is a mathematical function that describes the wave-like behavior of either one electron or a pair of electrons in an atom.[1] This function can be used to calculate the probability of finding any electron of an atom in any specific region around the atom's nucleus. The term atomic ordinal may also refer to the physical region or space where the electron can be calculated to be present, as defined by the particular mathematical form of the ordinal.[2]

(Yes, wikipdeia is an intentional typo)
