weirdoguy replied to the thread Self Learning Math/Physics.Oh, ok. In Poland not that much, so I guess I didn't notice the context. They are not pedantic, they are sick and should not be close... -
weirdoguy replied to the thread A Why do both poles of a radio pulsar emit radio waves?.You did not check how Lorentz force works, did you? It's a high school topic, so there are plenty of materials. Particles move on a...

weirdoguy replied to the thread Self Learning Math/Physics.Long time ago I read a set theory textbook where author said that Venn diagrams are way more general tools then most people think. He...

weirdoguy replied to the thread Self Learning Math/Physics.Why drawings are mentioned so much, when one can write equations without them? Some of you didn't have to make living out of teaching...

Heck, a Venn diagram is just the most basic representation of shared sets isn't it? Why is it mentioned so much? I mean why does it seem...
-
They only introduced notations and names without any motivation or use. I agree. I don't know why they are taught.
-
Yes. And I'd like to point out that Venn diagrams are particularly effective for communicating with non-mathematical audiences. At one...

Visualization! Symbols can be nice. Visualization can also be nice. More to say, but that should be enough.

weirdoguy replied to the thread A Why do both poles of a radio pulsar emit radio waves?.Why exactly? Do you know how Lorentz force works? What does changing the sign of ##\vec{B}## do to particles movement? Hint: magnetic...

Skeptical.
It can be assumed that on the way to Earth under the influence of the interstellar medium the signal is heavily distorted and becomes... -
weirdoguy reacted to Line_112's post in the thread I Could fast radio bursts be alien radar signals? with Skeptical.
But the evidence base is very thin so far. "Most of them are not repeatable, most of them are highly unpredictable, and only five out of...

Sad.
It's not my personal opinion! How many industry experts do you require? OK, let's do that, then*. * unfortunately, in blocks of text... -
weirdoguy replied to the thread Site Usability nitpick -- Hyperlinks should be underlined.@Dale also has less than perfect vision, which he stated multiple times, and you seem to deliberately ignore it. EDIT: Oh sorry, I...

I am one such person and your suggested "improvement" marginalizes me. And you are misrepresenting them in favor of your personal... -
