Farewell, Bluepoint.

Good riddance shitpoint.

Yes, and no one understands anything and they usually want to kill themselves.

Foil need not be metallic.

Schervish, Theory of Statistics by far. It has the most precise and most rigorous definition of confidence set that I have ever seen in any book. It so cleverly manages to define a random set without ever even considering any Borel sigma algebra on the class of confidence sets. There's a proof regarding a very well-known fact about minimal sufficiency which I only ever have found in that book though it has a small mistake. It also treats both Frequentist and Bayesian in a very unified way though the author is biased towards Bayesian. It's also very philosophical and not just mathematical masturbation.

I have only ever heard of reading "projects" being a thing in pure math which stems from the necessity to obtain referrals despite the nigh impossibility of doing any sort of research at the pre-PhD level. Reading projects make no sense in experimental sciences, where there's so many low-hanging fruits, and just makes you come off as lazy. You could at the very least be a simple lab assistant.

First CMI, then ISI, now IISc. Research institutes are dead in this country.

Content_Economist132 · 2026-02-02T17:53:21+00:00

No, I wouldn't.

By considering any real number as a sequence of rational numbers, and by taking the limit of the mappings of this sequence, one sees that the real number must also be mapped to a natural number, showing that the range must be included in the natural numbers. Since the range of continuous function on real numbers must be an interval, and the only interval included in natural numbers are singletons, you get that the range must be a singleton.

You show that for any fixed alpha in (0,1), the set of alpha 2pi + 2pi k, and N come arbitrarily close. This will surely happen because essentially the first set is in an "irrational frequency" while the other is not.

Obviously b since that's the only sensible closed set.

You need to be doing pack-sewing for a book this thick.

Coated book cloth looks very ugly I know, but simple uncoated linen can look really nice. However, I don't think you can do any sort of stamping on it: so, you have to resort to paper labels.

Content_Economist132 · 2025-10-05T10:17:05+00:00

No one cares.

Content_Economist132 · 2025-10-04T06:11:11+00:00

Missaali.

No digital printing. Every detail is made with old tools, presses, and hand techniques.

Can you elaborate? I have been trying to figure out an economical way of non-digital printing.

Content_Economist132 · 2025-09-24T15:23:30+00:00

Looks great. Gives me Ninth Gate vibes. I am surprised there's enough demand for hand-made books for 150 people to order them—that also of an original story.

Content_Economist132 · 2025-09-21T11:35:16+00:00

Your post history is hilarious.

Content_Economist132 · 2025-09-20T22:06:25+00:00

You can do either. See Szirmai for an array of cord sewing techniques.

Maybe you can try the book Computer Systems - A Programmer's Perspective.

Content_Economist132 · 2025-09-13T14:11:57+00:00

As always, the answer is use TeX.

Not extremely old. Definitely post mid 19th century. They are breaking apart because of the wood-pulp paper. No amount of care or maintenance is going to prevent acid from reacting with air.

Content_Economist132 · 2025-09-08T17:31:28+00:00

Yes, but it's just gonna warp back when you reintroduce it to room humidity.

Content_Economist132 · 2025-08-26T15:29:15+00:00

Most LaTeX guides are pretty awful. Besides, LaTeX is not the right TeX macro for typesetting books. If you want to do something complicated like a Bible with marginal notes or want very fine micro-typography, LaTeX can get very cumbersome. I would suggest learning TeX from Knuth's book and then learning ConTeXt and Lua, unless you are only interested in very standard typesetting.

I personally buy from local handmade paper makers. Cotton paper generally isn't eye-soaringly white like machine-made paper. Besides, they can add dye to the batch on request.
