The discussion centers around animations of a 4D die and sphere created by the original poster. The animations were made using Python and a basic graphics package capable of drawing straight lines and ellipses. Participants express interest in the videos, noting that the hyperdie appears more intuitive than the hypersphere. There is a nostalgic sentiment from one commenter, recalling similar creations from two decades ago. The conversation highlights the intersection of programming and visual representation of complex geometries.

What did you make these animations in?
 
Interesting videos, for me the hyperdie is more intuitive than the hypersphere ...

Python and some primitive graphics package that can draw only straight lines and ellipses.

It's strange, I feel like I did these 20 years ago.

Thread 'What Exactly is Dirac’s Delta Function? - Insight'

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
