In a way it makes sense though right? There's a text by Brian Cantwell that introduces the dimensional analysis chapter with, Any physical relationship must be expressible in dimensionless form... This is because the variables are subject to measurement by an observer in terms of units that are sele...

Ars Technica just published this great article about turbulence. I am very glad to see this often underappreciated field of physics get such a well-written article!

I think you showed a lot of wisdom in so much of this project Josh. After the Kickstarter ended, you refused to take in more money. How odd, in today's world! You learned lessons of taking help when you needed it; if you'd been foolish, you'd have been too proud. And in sending your update to us, yo...

now that's what i call a ringing endorsement

i might give it a go at some point

This may be a day-one (or maybe day two, day three just to be safe) purchase for me, but I'm not going to pre-order. I love Egosoft but the state of their games on release is routinely terrible, no matter the hype. They haven't lost my loyalty, but they've lost my pre-release support.

The orcs have developed a very stylish post-third-age bridge architecture though, they really deserve recognition

Also a J. Maybe I'm just too stubborn to leave for good!

it is interesting that there tend to be More P's than J's here

i want more tes tho :c

Mate I could talk about this all day. The two I've read/am reading are: Introduction to Functional Analysis with Applications - I can't speak to quality of sources like the link, I borrowed this copy from my library. Libraries are the best. Differential geometry - I got this one from Amazon, these D...

The writing and characterization in the campaign is so cheesy, and the soundtrack still hasn't grown on me. It's as if it was made to be as deliberately inoffensive as possible. I'm not done with it yet so hope to be proved wrong by the rest of the storyline, but it ain't looking good.

For me, the costs of not paying enough attention to linear algebra came when I tried to learn certain numerical methods which... well, suffice it to say, 'projection operators' did my head in. I think this all stems from my thinking that matrix multiplication is much too awkward and has no business ...

Oh what an excellent resource! I detested linear algebra and have only recently come around to not thinking of it as a monster.

Trouble in paradise: I got my fortifications up and working despite an attack from other pirates that blew up my Nemba 5. orbital shipyards; I've had to pay those pirates off not to attack me again. Them and three other factions. I launched an assault on Abrigadu-Fos because the Haunted Daggers had ...

I'm very excited about this, the claustrophobic sensor-watching sounds right up my alley!

Great way to put it, I agree
