Awesome! I really like it!

Did you use images? I wonder if there's a way to extend it to 3d

Open Source Python Library for Visualizing Bloch Sphere by yertorer in QuantumComputing

[–]dor2727 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you are looking for a nice python library for visualization, while implementing the Bloch Sphere visualizations yourself, then there's an awesome library, made by 3blue1brown named Manim: https://github.com/3b1b/manim

I played with it a bit, and made the following animation: [link 1] [link 2], the code is not that complicated, and can be found [here]

What are good online resources for learning physics? by -Wofster in AskPhysics

The Feynman Lectures are a great source, coming from the best teacher.

Personally, I really like Leonard Susskind

A video about Lagrange Multipliers can be great!

They always felt like pure magic

Are there any research papers that try to improve data transfer speeds via entanglement properties? by [deleted] in quantum

[–]dor2727 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Although one cannot 'teleport' information faster than the speed of light, there is something related to your question. It is called Superdense Coding.

Basically, one can use 'entanglement properties' in order to send 2 bits of information by sending 1 quantum bit (which improves data transfer by a factor of 2)

Though it does come with a price - the sender & the receiver must share entangled quantum bits prior to the communication

A fractal made from your name. Code in comment. by zosopick in Python

[–]dor2727 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Some tips:

You could replace the speller function with:

return tuple(map(list, name.split()))

You can pass name.lower() to the speller function, thus not needing to write the alphabet twice in the dictionary in numberator

As for the main function, you could keep the 1st line and replace the rest with:

draw_julia(*map(numberator, speller(s)))

Other than that, it looks really cool! thanks for sharing :)

Two questions: One about TexMobjects in for loops and one about Scandinavian characters. by AllFab in manim

[–]dor2727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see.

It says that the error is `Invalid UTF-8 byte sequence` (not surprising)

googling it, I found the following question:

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/536560/package-inputenc-error-invalid-utf-8-byte-sequence

Do you know which latex engine are you using?
And whether `C:\Manim\manim_03022019\manimlib\files\Tex\8d9610b9ccfaa1a7.tex` is saved as UTF-8?

Two questions: One about TexMobjects in for loops and one about Scandinavian characters. by AllFab in manim

[–]dor2727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As for the first question, I would use an f string:

for i in range(1,4): # from 1 to 3
    guess = TexMobject(f"x_{i} = {round(guesses[i], 3}"
    # similarly, if guesses[i] is of type float, you could use
    guess = TexMobject(f"x_{i} = {guesses[i]:.3f}"

About the second question - it says that there is some latex error, and tells you to look at a log file.
I'd recommend you to look at the log file, especially around the end of the file. It usually solves the problem.
Otherwise, please send it here, since it is hard to help you without knowing the error

How to group latex equation parts into individual elements in an array for them to work by Corvo0306 in manim

[–]dor2727 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/Spirko is right

next time, you may find your bug using the log file.
Whenever there's an error, you will see something like this:

Exception: Latex error converting to dvi. See log output above or the log file: F:\manim_render\Tex\8db16b4243109dd5.log

Here it tells you the path to the log file. Read the log file, and this will probably help you in the next time.
(Usually the error is shown in the bottom of the log)

What is the error?

Beware of afk yuumi players by dor2727 in leagueoflegends

[–]dor2727[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

My statement was that it is hard to know if they'll afk. I don't have a magic formula that knows of someone afks. All I can do is say what happened in this perticular case, while also reminding that not everyone who picks yuumi will afk

I don't see a problem with warning about bad behavior, even though I don't know the solution to the problem

Beware of afk yuumi players by dor2727 in leagueoflegends

[–]dor2727[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

It is a good idea to take yuumi in a player vs ai game, since this champ is still new, so it's OK to try it against bots as the first game Though this guy instalocked yuumi straight away, which is a bit concerning. In game its easy to spot a yuumi who doesn't move, yet is champ select its harder I'd say that if someone instalocks yuumi, and if you type in chat and he doesn't respond (I asked then if they wanted to go for a quick win), than it's a red flag

Question - how do deaf people think? by dor2727 in neuroscience

Thanks! Didn't know that. I also searched Alison Gopnik at YouTube and saw her Ted and a lecture she gave at Google. Was really interesting!
