Yeah essentially they did all this illegal stuff and got charged and lobied the pmo to pass a bill that would only give them a fine and allow them to continue to bid on projects the bill went through but the federal prosecutors said no they will be criminally prosecutes so the pmo removed people from positions to get what he wanted lol

If that's the case, then what's the white sauce

gentle moss Mar 11, 2019, 12:13 AM

that's cheese

#

you cook a basic pizza

#

like tomato and cheese or w/e

#

then you put the stuff on AFTER the pizza is done

#

you can't cook salad wtf is wrong with you

river anvil Mar 11, 2019, 12:13 AM

still rather have them without the pizza

Heh BeatLink, here's a meme for you. I was coding on leetcode just now. So, what happened was, I tried 4 DAMN HOURS tryna fix a code with proper syntax afaict, and then find out that the problem was that the default setting for the language you were coding in was C++, and i had assumed it automatically changed to Python.

#

IHDK why the first error it saw was the 'improper' syntax for slicing a string, not anything else, but well... that.

And i was an idiot for not reading the d

crysis 2 was a pretty solid fps single player experience.

#

the others in the series I didn't care much for

sand goblet Mar 11, 2019, 9:57 AM

#

I own the trilogy but I've only played the first one so far

tame terrace Mar 11, 2019, 9:58 AM

#

I don't think the first one is very interesting.

#

it was more of a technical showcase of fancy graphics and less of a game

#

but crysis 2 was actually fun

#

it has great pacing, and it's much easier to get into. more linear. shorter. more immediately interesting weapons and powerups.

#

far from a fantastic game, but a pretty good one.

gentle moss Mar 11, 2019, 10:00 AM

#

i found the first one to be good

#

until they took away all the beaches and nice graphics

#

oh wait, sorry. thinking about far cry.

tame terrace Mar 11, 2019, 10:01 AM

#

technically both had beaches

#

which was kind of my problem with it. Crysis 1 was much more open and had quite a few beaches on its tropical island setting. the plot was ridiculous. and crysis 2 also has a shitty plot but it's more focused and a much tighter narrative experience. it was more urban.

#

and the suit powers were far more fun

sand goblet Mar 11, 2019, 10:04 AM

#

I mean far cry 1 was almost entirely beaches

tame terrace Mar 11, 2019, 10:04 AM

#

yes, far cry 1 was a huge island too.

#

it also wasn't a fun game.

I remember there was an area in the original

Where you were basically in this huge gap between mountains with a giant lake of death in the middle

#

what exactly does it do since the simple guide doesnt say anything of its function

sand goblet Mar 11, 2019, 10:22 AM

#

It's a version control system

#

What that essentially means is you use it to keep track of changes to your code

#

Then you can push those changes to an upstream git repository (like github) for other people to work with

#

It enables you to work on projects with multiple people

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 10:22 AM

#

I assumed that since I read that in one phrase on the webstie 😛 it's just filled with a lot of programming jargon I dont quiet get yet

sand goblet Mar 11, 2019, 10:23 AM

#

Basically, you make some changes, bundle it up in a commit and give that commit a description

At any point, you can undo a commit, go back in the history, see who changed what, and so on

Python is a meta language right? Meaning endless possibilities right?

sand goblet Mar 11, 2019, 10:50 AM

#

No idea what you mean by a meta language

#

But sure, it's a programming language, you can write whatever you want

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 10:57 AM

#

I heard the term before

#

Now I'm wondering if it means something or if I made it up

#

I'm awfully certain it's a real term

#

Ruby is also a meta language

#

Let me Google this

#

Okay I think I figured it out and the issue is that I misremembered it @sand goblet

#

So there's ML which is a standard purpose programming language

#

A dialect of ML is standard ML which influenced Python

tame terrace Mar 11, 2019, 11:06 AM

#

ML is short for Meta Language

#

I've never heard either ruby or python refered to as "a metalanguage", but I'm assuming it might imply that you can do metaprogramming in them.

#

as in write some python code that generates some python code.

#

that's a paradigm that's used very broadly and in a lot of languages.

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 11:12 AM

#

I don't exactly remember I just remembered the phrase " python is a meta language " and it stuck with me for yearas @tame terrace

oak tangle Mar 11, 2019, 11:21 AM

Fluent Python is amazing and I think The Python Cookbook is also great for a lot of people. I think seasoned developers like Lemon probably know most of the tricks in there, but the Cookbook really helps you see the value in a lot of the language features. It shows how powerful they can be.

Hahah let me try that <.<

#

( how do you run a file on sublime text??? )

oak tangle Mar 11, 2019, 11:34 AM

#

Sublime should use your system's python

languid kelp Mar 11, 2019, 11:35 AM

#

from the top menu bar there should be a run option

#

or command B on mac

oak tangle Mar 11, 2019, 11:35 AM

#

You have to save the file first with the right extension, so it can determine the build system

#

Then you can use ctrl+b or use the, errm, tools menu

#

It's the strange mac key + b on mac

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 11:36 AM

#

build?

#

is run called build??

#

oh great I downloaded sublime in German so I can't even post on here what I got as an answer XDDD

Yeah, it's build

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 11:38 AM

Yes.

oak tangle Mar 11, 2019, 11:39 AM

Can you open a cmd for me?

I think you didn't add Python to path during the installation

#

See if the python command is recognized in cmd

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 11:39 AM

#

nope

oak tangle Mar 11, 2019, 11:39 AM

PATH on Windows

If you have installed Python but you forgot to check the Add Python to PATH option during the installation you may still be able to access your installation with ease.

If you did not uncheck the option to install the Python launcher then you will find a py command on your system. If you want to be able to open your Python installation by running python then your best option is to re-install Python.

Otherwise, you can access your install using the py command in Command Prompt. Where you may type something with the python command like:

C:\Users\Username> python3 my_application_file.py

You can achieve the same result using the py command like this:

C:\Users\Username> py -3 my_application_file.py

You can pass any options to the Python interpreter after you specify a version, for example, to install a Python module using pip you can run:

C:\Users\Username> py -3 -m pip install numpy

You can also access different versions of Python using the version flag, like so:

C:\Users\Username> py -3.7
... Python 3.7 starts ...
C:\Users\Username> py -3.6
... Python 3.6 stars ...
C:\Users\Username> py -2
... Python 2 (any version installed) starts ...

oak tangle Mar 11, 2019, 11:40 AM

#

You can also manually add it to PATH, but I don't know the steps by heart

#

Or configure your build system in ST3 to use py instead of python

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 11:41 AM

#

so pretty much I have to re-download it?

oak tangle Mar 11, 2019, 11:41 AM

#

Or add it to PATH manually

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 11:41 AM

which would be a bother 😛

oak tangle Mar 11, 2019, 11:42 AM

It requires some Googling, probably, or someone here who uses Windows and can tell you

#

I don't know how to do that, though

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

@oak tangle

#

Its not python

#

its just py

#

you dont even have to choose an option for this

oak tangle Mar 11, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

That's the launcher, like I said above

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

It does it all automatically

oak tangle Mar 11, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

You can choose "Add Python to PATH" as well during the installation

#

then you can use python itself

sand goblet Mar 11, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

Yeah, ves showed you the launcher already

stuck oracle Mar 11, 2019, 12:00 PM

you're wrong gdude :3

you have to have a good reason to be carrying a knife

I looked it up a little while back bisk

#

I might be misremembering as so often happens, but

gentle moss Mar 14, 2019, 11:38 AM

#

it has to be folding, blade less than 3", non-locking

#

lock knives are illegal

#

for public carry, anyway

#

private ownership is fine

sand goblet Mar 14, 2019, 11:39 AM

#

I think you can't have serrated or utility knives either

gentle moss Mar 14, 2019, 11:39 AM

#

unless it's a "saw"

#

:D

#

slingshots aren't considered weapons under UK law btw

#

which is shocking considering how strong they can be

sand goblet Mar 14, 2019, 11:40 AM

#

In Ireland you can't carry a projectile or spray weapon, or anything sharp at all

#

The only exception is for your job

gentle moss Mar 14, 2019, 11:40 AM

#

you can still be done for having a slingshot in public

#

but under like an anti-crime law

#

prevention of crime or smth

tame terrace Mar 14, 2019, 11:41 AM

#

they are here in norway

#

and I get why since you can kill people with them but I also feel a bit like slingshots is just what dennis the menace uses to like prank people.

#

like.. water balloons, or banana peel

#

or putting a stack of pennies on the train tracks to get the train to derail

gentle moss Mar 14, 2019, 11:45 AM

#

isn't that a myth?

#

and yeah, i've used some pretty strong slingshots and done serious damage to thick pieces of metal. they're super nasty.

#

but then again crossbows which can shoot through a pair of car doors don't require a license and can be purchased by any 18 year old.

I understand it until you set x do c[X] but till there it's sensable

However I don't think one would write "I have to" in a mathematical publication or something in that direction

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 12:21 PM

Eh ill just write it down and walk up to my professor and stare her dead in the eye like "Am i stupid, or does this make sense?"

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 12:57 PM

#

Mathematical publications are actually relatively informal and a lot use an active voice as well (as you should, passive voice is meh but a lot think it's "more formal")

#

@glass gorge That's what teachers are for. Just ask her and she'll probably help you with it.

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 1:00 PM

#

I'm on the late side though

#

Hand in is tomorrow

#

She did mention it yesterday that nobody visits her in her available hours

#

So i may start doing that after this one

#

but for now I'll just have to deal with being stupid

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 1:06 PM

You can still visit her

#

Nothing wrong with going by today

#

At least, I wouldn't mind that

#

I mean, you've already put in a lot of work and are still unsure. Sending an email would be too late, but just popping by in person should be okay

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 1:06 PM

I was, but i figured id hear if she was in or not

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 1:07 PM

I feel bad not being able to help you, maybe I'll stare at it some more to see if I actually remember anything of the linear algebra I did 15 years ago

@oak tangle I think i figured it up, but other question c:
Are non pivot columns of a matrix always linear dependent?

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 4:15 PM

On each other or on the pivot columns, @glass gorge ?

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 4:15 PM

each other

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 4:16 PM

Why would you think they are?

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 4:16 PM

Cause the true false statement asks for it

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 4:16 PM

Ah

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 4:16 PM

And i frankly can't think of any definitions

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 4:18 PM

Okay, well, it's False. There's no reason they should be.

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 4:18 PM

That's what i thought

#

It just sounded wrong

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 4:19 PM

#

I think they want you think about the linear dependence between the pivot and non-pivot columns and why those are special

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 4:19 PM

#

I guess i should try to come up with a counter proof then

#

.

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 4:19 PM

#

You just need one example

#

Make a 2_A_4 matrix with two pivot columns first and two independent non-pivot columns after it

#

The first two could just be:

1 0 x x    
0 1 x x

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 4:43 PM

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 5:52 PM

@oak tangle any idea what Row(A) means? A being a mxn matrix

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 5:56 PM

Row space, maybe?

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 5:56 PM

Row space is ? grumpchib

#

Theres no look up for row space in my book, i cant find it in any slides and google isnt helping grumpchib

Nvm found it in the word dictionary

#

Which i have no idea why it has word look up and a word dictionary

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

@oak tangle You wouldn't happen to have a general explanation of what a range is?

#

I thought it was just the set of results in the codomain after a linear transformation

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

You're going to get Python answers on this server 😉

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:25 PM

~~ Nou~~

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:25 PM

#

Haha

#

Uhm, my memory is shitty, I have to look it up

#

Isn't that the thing with the column space?

#

Like the span of all linear combinations of the columns

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:26 PM

#

I mean i thought that is what it was, but then i got statements like "If A is a m x n matrix, and the linear transformation x |--> Ax is surjective (if thats an english word), then the range of A = m"

#

how can a set of vectors be equal to a dimension?

#

📎 JPEG_20190314_212732.jpg

#

Is what im basing myself of

#

And T(x) transformation can be written as a matrix A

#

where Ax = b (b is in the range of the codomain)

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:30 PM

#

Man, this has been too long. I need to dive back into this.

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:30 PM

#

hah, You dont have to if you don't wanna

#

I may be spewing random bs just confusing you. And i'm pretty sure i have enough to pass this assignment

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:33 PM

#

What exactly do you mean by "a set of vectors be equal to a dimension"?

#

They are not saying that A = x, just that the range of A is m

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:33 PM

#

What is m then

#

i thought that was just a real number for the dimension

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:34 PM

#

Yes and the range is also a dimensionality

#

More or less

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:35 PM

#

But if you do want to these are the questions I am stuck on

If A is a m x n matrix, and range of A = m. Then the linear transformation x |-> Ax is injective``` ```
If A is a m x n matrix, and the linear transformation x |--> Ax is surjective , then the range of A = m``` ```
B refers to the Beta sign here.
B = {b_1, ..., b_n} and C = {c_1, ..., c_n} are bases for the vectorspace V, then the j-th column of the change-coordinate-matrix P_(C<-B) coordinate vector [c_j]_B```

#

I may rewrite the last one in typora, cause darn that formatting

#

Also im translating from norwegian

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:36 PM

#

That's okay

#

So, the span or range means "all the space you can reach with a linear combination of those vectors"

#

For instance, with two vectors that are linearly independent, you can reach a 2-dimensional plane, right?

#

So, the range of that thing is 2

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:39 PM

#

oh 🤔

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:39 PM

#

For the top line you wrote, what it means that the span is equal to m, so when you apply the transformation, space won't be squished into dimensionality lower than m

#

That means that you'll keep a one-to-one mapping and no two distinct vectors will end up at the same place after the transformation

#

So, it's injective

#

(There's no two vectors that map to the same result point)

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:40 PM

#

And that is true then, cause [m x n][m] = [m x 1]

#

so the matrix multiplication wont remove rows

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:41 PM

#

Well, think of a transformation matrix with only zeros. A bit boring, but what will happen if you multiply any vector with that?

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:41 PM

#

0 vector in R^m ?

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:41 PM

#

So, all the vectors end up as the null vector, there's no one-to-one mapping, but all vectors map to the same result

#

It's because space is squished into a single point

#

Because that null matrix has no span at all

#

It can't reach any point in space with a linear combination of its columns

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:42 PM

#

Mkai, im following

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:42 PM

#

That means it's NOT injective

#

Since many vectors map to the same result after the transformation

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:43 PM

#

Injective means all b map to max 1 vector in R^n right?

#

wait no

#

Man i hate this norwegian bs in math

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:45 PM

#

📎 graphic.PNG

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:45 PM

#

The image or mapping or w/e is injective if all b in R^m are mapped by max one x in R^n

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:45 PM

#

Do you see the left two graphs in there?

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:45 PM

#

So all results have max 1 input to get it

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:45 PM

#

No X maps to the same Y value

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:45 PM

#

That makes more sense to say

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:45 PM

#

That's what injective means

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:46 PM

#

Ok yeah im back on track

#

Where were we yoj

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:46 PM

#

Haha

#

So, when you have an mxn matrix that can span m dimensions (it can reach all m dimensions), then every different vector will end up at its own spot after transformation. No two vectors end up the same after the transformation

#

However, if the matrix of size m by n has a lower span than m, that means that we can't reach m dimensions, but space is squished together. So, if you start out with a 3 by n matrix but with a span of 2, all the vector will lie in a 2d plane after the transformation, because the transformation matrix can't reach the third dimension.

#

That means that there are a lot of vectors that will end up at the same place

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:49 PM

#

mkai

oak tangle Mar 14, 2019, 8:49 PM

#

Since, we started out with m-vectors, but we don't have a 3d space anymore to hold them all, there squished to a 2d plane

#

So, that's what the top line means

glass gorge Mar 14, 2019, 8:49 PM

#

and range here is the result of the transformation, so they already state that the dimensions are unchanged then?
