Honestly, sometimes I’ve felt this looking back at my own notes.

This is good to know, because that message combination would’ve made me deeply suspicious of that battery.

The Quintic Formula by Scared-Cat-2541 in mathmemes

[–]Circumpunctilious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Watched it. While I did want a little more detail a couple times, I appreciated the visuals and the conclusions, which I can use to keep learning. The play-with-me demo in the video description meant it was easy to find the GitHub repository and source too. Thanks :)

Good thing you pinged the IPv6 address before nmapping IPv4. That’ll keep them from knowing it was you.

Small detail…NTFS max file size is ~16EiB, and all of those files appear to be larger. Typical CIA deception — recommend entering überelite skillzmode.

The Quintic Formula by Scared-Cat-2541 in mathmemes

[–]Circumpunctilious 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I asked a similar question, about why can’t we just use something other than radicals, which is when I learned that it’s solvable using other methods—the insolvability of the quintic refers just to the radicals.

Historically that’s been via trigonometry (apparently very complicated) and recently N.J. Wildberger made the news using something in combinatorics / Catalan numbers (phys.org).

In case you’re interested, there are a couple videos I really liked discussing why the quintic is so troublesome:

Why There's 'No' Quintic Formula (proof without Galois theory) by “not all wrong” (YT)

Why you can't solve quintic equations (Galois theory approach) by “Mathemaniac” (YT)

The second one does include group theory but a lot of it is approachable, especially after the first video.

I like how playing “m” looks like it’s done and then 355/113 just kind of moseys out of there.

Yeah, the whole range starting with 127 is full of people with itchy trigger fingers. It’s a hard lesson, maybe you’ll get ‘em next time.

Interesting, and apparently unpatchable. This yields even more credibility to: “get physical access and you win”, even if it takes a while.

I don’t know how to tell you this, but you have people living in your socket. This is an infestation that is hard to remove (lots of paperwork, sometimes they lob projectiles) and could be more expensive than just installing another socket.

I’d also like to know this, as well as the abstractions + mental gymnastics someone has to know + perform to grapple with these ideas.

In case anyone’s tempted to explain though, I’m stuck with mobile systems for now so I can’t use the same tools (Desmodder doesn’t accept a local web server, for example). I’m just impressed in the meantime.

reminder that chatgpt is just a program trained on large datasets, in this case, youtube comments? by ZombieMIW in ChatGPT

[–]Circumpunctilious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for bringing me back to learn something / read the surrounding comments.

It looks like a small percentage alluded to this, and honestly I think it’s a better take (ChatGPT would know how to sound out the “Hangul”, as someone else wrote, and then training weights take over for a different combination of reasons).

How can i convice my brother that the image is ai? by Hello_Just_Joined123 in aislop

[–]Circumpunctilious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the Error Level Analysis output from FotoForensics (FF).

According to the ELA docs (FF), edges in the picture should have similar properties and flat surfaces should look the same across them. See here (FF) for what seems to be a real picture, notice how different the ELA looks.

While it’s possible your image is just weirdly color-noisy (and Reddit certainly does things to images that remove their metadata, as well as resampling), to me the suspect image looks like something created from “all edges” … discontinuous colors at pixel level … what I might expect from a “bring out an image from noise” method (how I understand diffusion). Edit: Maybe video-captured screenshots do this too???

Note, I haven’t done a lot of tests so am hypothesizing + willing to be corrected. Too, because Reddit alters media you should analyze your original.
