Happy 250th independence day USA🚀🇺🇸
I admire, respect your fight for the frontier & leadership in science, tech, &space
Your Values of Liberty, Freedom ,Merit, & Equality inspires many inventors pioneers of Earth🌎
i always cherish them & will try to contribute in future🇺🇸🦅❤️
it’s kind of ironic that the French government better understands and captures the true aesthetics and ideals of America than the groyper weirdos at the White House posting cringe anti-American MAGAslop
🚨#BREAKING: A 28-year-old confirms he has spent the last 10 YEARS of his life interviewing World War II combat veterans to keep their stories alive...
...in fact, for the last 10 years, he has interviewed World War 2 veterans EVERY SINGLE DAY
He started as a teenager, ditching school to ride his BIKE to the local retirement home, walking up to the front desk and asking to, "meet some World War II heroes."
His name is Rishi Sharma.
He's crossed all 50 states and half the world.
He's slept in his car and lived on gas-station food to afford it.
He asks these men for hours of their memories, and then he hands the entire recording to their families...
...FOR FREE
So that 200 years from now, a great-great-grandchild will know not just their hero's name, but how he laughed, how he cried, and what he sacrificed.
Rishi has no military family, his parents immigrated here from India.
He does it out of pure gratitude.
In his words:
"My parents were given the opportunity to immigrate and raise a family because of veterans like these. It's a debt of love I'll spend my entire life trying to repay..."
As one 100-year-old Marine who stormed Iwo Jima told him, remembering the flag going up:
"The hair on my arms still stands up when I think about how beautiful it was."
THAT is America.
250 years of ordinary people doing extraordinary things...
God bless our veterans. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

In 2001, detectors in the Super-Kamiokande neutrino observatory experienced a catastrophic chain-reaction implosion. It was later repaired and in 2006, refilled with ultra-pure water, seen here. https://t.co/WZv5UYBPc0
"Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning" by Christopher Bishop is one of the best books in modern machine learning (almost 800 pages of content).
Although it was published in 2006, it remains a standard reference on the subject. It develops machine learning from first principles, with a strong emphasis on probability, statistics, optimization, graphical models, neural networks, kernel methods, mixture models, and Bayesian inference.
It also includes one of the clearest mathematical introductions to multinomial logistic regression and the softmax function. Microsoft Research makes the complete PDF freely available:

Did you know you can create the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution with just some balls and a motor?
I built this simple device to illustrate it.
This is how it works: A spinning agitator pumps energy into ~400 balls, so they bounce around and collide like gas particles in a box.
They escape one at a time through a tiny hole, then fall a fixed gap into bins below. Since the hole is so small, every ball leaves with no vertical speed and takes the same time to fall.
Constant fall time means how far a ball flies sideways is set purely by its speed. A faster ball goes into a further bin. So each bin is really a speed. Tally all 400 and you get the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution.
