You get to say "hyper"

uhuh.

#

People freak out at the notion

cant say im impressed

#

Also, as I understand you can embed spherical and euclidean geometries inside

flat harbor
#

well i expect it to have smth special than just being a subset of riemannian

zealous garden
#

Those lines are pretty special my guy

latent edge
#

hyperbolic is the best geometry I could ask for

flat harbor
#

i get that its maximally symmetric

#

like wow thats neat

zealous garden
#

Also I want to see hyperbolic geometry applied more to video games and VR

flat harbor
#

i get that its not flat and not spherical

zealous garden

#

but idk.

#

these dont feel like awesome things native to hyperbolic geometry

zealous garden
#

Hyperbolic Geometry is involved in Psychedelic Geometry

#

parallel lines diverging is cool i guess

You get modular forms

This little fact says a lot

Modular forms is scratching the surface of how cool hyperbolic is

# zealous garden https://qualiacomputing.com/2017/05/28/eli5-the-hyperbolic-geometry-of-dmt-exper...

This is one of the few pieces I’ve seen that attempts to map actual phenomenal geometry using mathematically coherent models, and does so without retreating into mysticism “woo woo” or metaphor.

I approach consciousness from a synthesis of IIT, field models, and Wheeler’s “It from Bit”—seeing brains as boundary conditions rather than generators.

Do you think the hyperbolic curvature seen in high dose DMT states reflects a deeper structure of the consciousness field itself?
Or is it an artifact of how neural networks warp under altered symmetry thresholds something like a lossy compression of otherwise inaccessible topologies?

I’m trying to understand whether these states are just “hallucinated math” or genuine partial decodings of a deeper substrate. Your work seems to flirt with both interpretations.

Thanks for sharing

#

The other 2 harping on about planck lengths and spacetimes are pretty wild

#

But that one about wallpaper groups and the symmetries experienced under psychedelia is rather grounded from what I can tell

vast wraith
#

kaleidoscopic experiences is one thing, while

Even the most contorted embeddings of the hyperbolic surfaces you experience cannot fit any longer in your normal experience of space on doses above 20 mg, so your mind has no other choice but to change the curvature of the 3D space around you! Thus when you go from “very high on DMT” to “super high on DMT” it feels like you are traveling to an entirely new dimension, where the objects you experience do not fit any longer into the normal world of human experience. They exist in H3 (hyperbolic 3D space). And this is in part why it is so extremely difficult to convey the subjective quality of these experiences. One needs to invoke mathematical notions that are unfamiliar to most people; and even then, when they do understand the math, the raw feeling of changing the damn geometry of your experience is still a lot weirder than you could ever anticipate.
is something else entirely

#

they straight up just claim that whatever they see exists in hyperbolic 3-space…

#

which seems wholly unfounded

#

simply crankery

zealous garden
#

You do not experience the image received by your retinas, you receive those images and use them in combination with the faculties of your brain and previous knowledge in order to create an actual 3D scene which is experienced

#

Optical illusions hint at this, and psychedelic experiences (i.e. the brain not functioning properly) make it more apparent that this is indeed how the brain functions and creates your visual experience

#

Therefore, the proposition is that the generated visual experience, whatever it is physically is irrelevant, is endowed with a hyperbolic 3-manifold structure

zealous garden
#

And that therefore visual experience under intense psychedelic influence is a hyperbolic 3-manifold

#

These are concrete and testable claims imo, hardly crankery just unverified and very off the hinge

#

To be expected given the obstacles to doing serious psychedelic research

#

Legal, medical, technical, psychological, formal, and philosophical issues abound

i havent done math in 5 years what should i do

errant zenith
raw narwhal
#

sure

errant zenith
#

Then I guess you could pick up where u stopped

raw narwhal
#

so

#

for example if the most recent level of math i did was algebra 1

#

i would resume at algebra 1?

#

after 5 years

#

and not go to a lower level math like pre-algebra?

#

like a 5 year gap is that what ur saying

The calc 2 flow is basically

  • Integration: parts, partial fractions, trigonometric integrals, indefinite integrals (Riemann sums, antiderivatives/FTC, u-sub are usually in Calc 1)*
  • Differential equations: basic idea, Euler step method, separable equations, integrating factor for first order linear stuff, possibly applications
  • Sequences/series: convergence of sequences and series, series tests (divergence, integral, p-test, comparison, limit comparison, etc), power series, radius of convergence, Taylor series
  • Possibly basics of vectors in 2D and 3D to pregame Calc 3

*Is the whole surface of revolution bullshit usually in Calc 1 or 2? I forget...

Anyway the thing people struggle with in Calc 2 is because:

  • Integration doesn't have a clear flowchart. Differentiation you can always bash chain/product/etc rules until you win. With integration, you're not sure whether to start with a u-sub, a trig identity, parts... Like you just have to guess or intuit
  • Also there is a lot of complexity/stuff to keep up with. Maybe you have an improper integral, so you have to take limits. Now there's a u-sub to do, make sure to change the bounds! Hmmm the result is weird... Ah wait it's because of a trig identity!!!
  • Also it's an algebra and trigonometry pressure test
  • Also sequences/series just completely break people's brains. So many people forget that there's a difference between a_n converging and sum a_n. Others think oh a_n -> 0 means sum a_n converges

Trig functions being periodic is a notable fact but there are also just a bunch of identities to remember about them

#

sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1, variants like sec^2(x) = tan^2(x) + 1, all the double angle stuff

magic chasm
#

what about the inverse functions of such function like arctgx?

#

i think that i need to train more trig

#

somehow i do good without having proper intuition in thiis?

velvet dagger

I mean, if it works it works, but it def won't hurt to have your trig down cold when in calculus

Honestly for a good block of the year in calculus, the main difficulty is with algebra/trigonometry

errant heath
# neat lintel Which websites should I use Math overflow Mathematics Stack exchange Quora Or ...

As a reply, math is a very extensive subject with a lot of branches, and so are the websites about them. Math overflow is geared toward a more professional and advanced type of mathematiccresearch, while MSE is geared to a broader math audience with 'simpler' questions, since math overflow was created because there is statistically a lower number of professional mathematicians with professional questions and professional answers. Quora can also be a nice place though it's a bit less decentralized in my opinion, which means you can ask questions that might take you 5 times to read and also simpleton questions from people who are too tired or busy to solve them. I also recommend the discussions on Khan academy, they relate to the videos being watched.

barren anchor
#

probably none of them unless you're advanced beyond an introductory text in the area in question.

#

khan academy is good, textbooks are good, MIT's open courseware is good.

errant heath
#

Sadly some courses on MIT open courseware do not have lecture videos though

barren anchor

honestly just googling some university who's program you like and a class name often provides publicly accessible, full blown study guides, example tests and example test keys.

yeah some do not. Some do.

In algebraic geometry, motives (or sometimes motifs, following French usage) is a theory proposed by Alexander Grothendieck in the 1960s to unify the vast array of similarly behaved cohomology theories such as singular cohomology, de Rham cohomology, etale cohomology, and crystalline cohomology. Philosophically, a "motif" is the "cohomology esse...

# ocean harbor i do recall u need a proof for this?

It is a sort of proof....It uses the premise that you prove it in a way you define it....Trigonometry is defined with the help of unit circle so the derivatives must also be proved with the same definition.

ok lets hear about it 🙂

Hi

raw narwhal
#

Serious question would all of khan academy algebra 1 algebra 2 trig geometry precalculus help me preparation for a college level calculus 1 class I need a math refreshe

ocean harbor
#

yes

raw narwhal
#

So math 124 at the university of Washington

#

Like no joke?

ocean harbor
#

what's math 124?

raw narwhal
#

Math 124 is calculus 1 with analytical geometry

silver ember
#

Is it easier if you read the syllabus, reference, recommended readings, and then follow khan trying to fill the gaps, but Calc1 is pretty universal, but keep in mind that it depends on what you are majoring most of the time, for example I major in computer science and my university has math students with a different approach to Calc

raw narwhal
#

Well listen

#

I haven’t done math in 3 years

#

And the math I did in high school

#

Wasn’t good at all

#

Like I got a D in algebra 1 cause I didn’t do the homework I got like a b and a b- in precalc at the university of Washington

silver ember
#

The first thing you need to ask yourself is if you're doing mathematics, a science derived from math directly, or engineering.

raw narwhal
#

Then I got an A in geometry for one semester then like a b- for the other semester

#

Then I got an A in algebra 2 for both semesters

#

But listen

#

I did not care for math at all like I did not take any notes at all

#

Like do u see my concern

ocean harbor
#

u just need to practice

raw narwhal
#

How am I gonna do

#

The homework for calc 1

silver ember
#

But what you're preparing for right now? what is your career choice?

#

it is not the same math for different fields

raw narwhal
#

I’m trying to prepare for math 124

#

Because it’s a required class for the major I want to apply for

#

So I’m asking

silver ember
#

yeah but we can't know what is math 124

raw narwhal
#

I told you what math 124 is

ocean harbor
silver ember
#

I mean what is your career choice?

raw narwhal
#

It’s calculus 1 with analytical geometry

#

At the university of Washington

silver ember
#

yeah but that doesn't exactly helps besides recommending one of two books

raw narwhal
#

Ok

silver ember
#

the approach of Calc varies

raw narwhal
#

Can you just answer this question please

#

Will khan academy algebra 1 algebra 2 trigonometry geometry precalculus

silver ember
#

I'm trying to help you don't have to be defensive

raw narwhal
#

All of this from khan academy

#

Is it enough

#

To help me understand the prequisites for that class

ocean harbor
#

I mean u can use other sources if khan academy isn't too much

silver ember
#

I cannot answer that, is not enough if you're a math student, but it is enough if you are for engineering

ocean harbor
#

like Paul's notes

raw narwhal
#

Ok I’ll do it

#

Thx

ocean harbor
#

I switched to cs from engineering and now I'm literally restarting my math skills from geometry

silver ember
#

If you are studying math you may need books like Spivak's

#

if you're doing engineering it is enough with khan, and maybe a little bit of Stewart's Calc book

silver ember
raw narwhal
#

well

#

im doing biology

#

ok ill do it

#

idgaf how long its gnona take me

#

it will be done

silver ember
#

Yeah you should've started from that

#

then khan is more than enough

raw narwhal
#

ol

#

ok is it more then enough for math 124

silver ember
#

if you're studying biology and that is the semester you have to prepare for then yeah

#

Check the pre-requisites for the calc playlist inside khan's platform, if you haven't touch math from past 3 years your might need some algebra refreshing

like multiplying by zero "absorbs" any number

I was wondering if there were any meteorologists here because I was looking for some advice on how I could get into that field. I've been looking and noticed that math is really important, so I'm already looking into that. The problem is in choosing what master's and/or PhD to pick in order to do Numerical Weather Prediction or the likes

#

I've been looking into climatology, earth sciences and applied maths programs

#

I'm currently a CS major

anything around climate modeling / oceanic modeling / atmospheric modeling will be what you're looking for

this can be placed in an applied math department or in an environmental sciences department

But also you should be clear about what you want to do

#

Being a professional meteorologist and being a model developer are very different

Most meteorologists interact very little with the underlying NWP and deal almost exclusively with model output

In no particular order:

  • Pedro Peixoto at USP
  • Christiane Jablonowski at University of Michigan
  • Nicholas Kevlahan at McMaster
  • Jorn Behrens at Hamburg
  • Martin Schreiber at Grenoble-Alpes
  • Navid Constantinou at Uni Melb
  • Jemma Shipton at Exeter
  • Collin Cotter at Imperial
  • Jean-Pierre Croisille at Lorraine-Metz
    These are the main university people who would advise a good climate/weather modeling phd. A lot of research is done at various modeling centers including:
  • National Center for Atmospheric Research in the US (Peter Lauritzen)
  • Sandia National Lab in the US (Mark Taylor, Oksana Guba, Chris Eldred, Peter Bosler)
  • Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Lab in the US (Robert Hallberg)
  • UK Met Office (Thomas Bendall)
  • European Center for Medium Range Weather Forecasts
  • Deutscher Wetterdienst in Germany (Michael Baldauf)
  • Meteo-France
  • RIKEN in Japan
  • Bureau of Meterology in Australia (Dave Lee)
  • Environment Canada
    I know this because I am currently doing a phd on model development. The main journals for the field are the Journal for Advances in Modeling Earth Systems and Geoscientific Model Development. Feel free to dm if you have more questions

@barren anchor it's def becoming my fav note system so far. it's so flexible and helps me stay so real with myself and my reflections at the end of the day.

plus when things dont go as planned i can see precisely why and what ended up happening instead, and like, what i ate for dinner or breakfast or bought from the store a week ago. or what im esp curious about lately and proof of my consistency. so having a log in hindsight ig is helping me understand myself and how to move forward. im excited about it. ^^

So, for me personally (aka this is not necessarily something I'm throwing out as a generalizable position), I process my morality vaguely through some mix of what's out there

The categorical imperative convinces me most out of the (secular) moral frameworks I know of, but applying it feels quite tricky. That said, it does seem to give a clear answer here, since it makes no distinction between humans and non-human rational beings.

In practice, my moral intuition is... Hmmm... It's a bit of a mix here.

If I say "I won't do X because X is wrong", my intuition for what makes X wrong is probably gonna be either one of virtue or that the consequence is unacceptable, which now that I think about it mostly means that it causes a harm which someone has "the right" not to experience (moral rather than legal right, and as for where these rights come from... Kinda nebulous, probably a mix of my religion, instinct, societal influence...)

If I decide that, among acceptable decisions, X > Y, then virtue may factor in somewhat but it's probably with more of an eye toward consequences (though my weighing of outcomes is not just most benefit for the most people... It's a mix of general welfare, prioritizing those dear to me... shurg)

As for society, where ethical considerations are balanced with the interests of society, the answer is probably going to be that the aliens being rational gives them more "rights" than non-human animals on earth do, but humans will probably be loyal to humanity first.

@sonic wind I dont wanna start an argument again but what I was trying to say yday was that to get the halting problem, O can't be opaque to the host machine (and that can always be enforced). The way I've always seen it presented, that detail is omitted (probably for convenience). If you keep the oracle opaque but enforce that O must believe its output, then you've lobotomized O. You have to let M see how O "thinks", otherwise it's not a computational issue but a communication issue, which is what I was trying to say with A. You probably think this is an inessential detail not worth thinking about and that's probably where we disagree. Do you see what I'm pointing to here and would you agree with this nuance on its own terms at least?

sonic wind
#

...not really

#

it's not a computational issue but a communication issue
that doesn't necessarily follow

#

what you get is that it's either a computational issue or a communication issue

unkempt mulch
#

Well sure, O could be dumb I guess

sonic wind
#

if you combine this with an argument by the Church-Turing thesis that communication issues cannot exist (i.e. that it is not possible that some program can compute the correct answer in the middle of its computation, but no program can output the correct answer), then you get that it must in fact be a computational issue

unkempt mulch
#

That's an interesting way to describe the Church-Turing thesis. What do you by that?

sonic wind
#

it's not a way to describe the Church-Turing thesis

#

it's a way to describe a consequence of the Church-Turing thesis

#

or not really directly a "consequence", more just like

#

most arguments that something is "computable" just describe a procedure in English, because once you have enough experience with computability you can just know that it's possible to convert it to a TM without actually going through all the work

green goblet
sonic wind
#

and once you have that intuitive level of understanding of computability, it's just obvious that the problem arises from the fact that the halting problem is genuinely uncomputable and not the fact that it's somehow difficult to take a boolean that exists within the execution of the program and make it the output of the program

soft mesa
unkempt mulch
#

Sure I mean this is what I meant that you probably just see it as inessential because it's always possible to enforce O to be transparent. But I think it's an interesting detail to consider

sonic wind
unkempt mulch
#

Well I mean imagine you write a function that's like O in python, and you don't let the host function see what it does. If it only looks at O's output, then you can write O such that whatever it returns, it also computes the actual outcome. That's what I mean by "communication issue".

#

To make it computational, the host has to look inside O. Then it's actually incoherent for O to compute the outcome, internally or otherwise

sonic wind
#

ok well this is the thing

#

if it "computes the outcome", then (by the ~nonexistence of communication issues) there is a function that computes the outcome and then outputs it

#

and like, this O is just... lying

#

and then you're only letting the flip machine see the lies, and then trying to claim that the truthful version of it is the halting oracle

unkempt mulch
#

Well no, that outcome here relies on O's opaqueness and conditionally computed outcome.

sonic wind
#

if you have a truly opaque "oracle", then the standard halting problem argument tells you that sometimes it will give the wrong answer, and there is nothing else you can reasonably say about it, because if the oracle is opaque we can't look inside to see if it knows the correct answer and just lies sometimes

#

if you have an oracle and we're looking at its beliefs instead of its output, then the standard halting problem argument, applied to a function that computes the oracle's beliefs, tells you that sometimes its beliefs give the wrong answer

#

and we have a function that computes the oracle's beliefs because that is provided by the claim that it is a halting oracle

#

if you can't compute the real answer then you don't have a halting oracle, if you can compute the real answer then you can diagonalise and find that this answer is sometimes wrong

unkempt mulch
#

Right you're saying that the "opaque" function that can't communicate its answer necessarily leads to the halting problem. I agree, that's what I was saying with A. What I was trying to say that if you only consider the "opaque" case in vacuum, you haven't really shown why it's a computational issue. So if you were the very first person trying to prove this, you'd reproduce the standard setup and then say something like "and there are no pure 'communication' issues that can't be mapped to computational ones. QED"
