@AlexGDimakis And sometimes why BERT is just better for certain tasks because it is bidirectional :)

@dujella1 I built a small tool that factors monic, integer polynomials using LLL. Not the most efficient method, but it was fun to make.

@oliverknill @YouTube I'm sorry for your loss

[George David Torres @gdtorus]

@littmath @KamerynJW Looking forward to their work on the P vs NP conundrum, Riemann head scratcher, and the Hodge brain teaser

Incremental API pricing is also a huge plus; now I can spend $0.40 in API credits once a month to never have to touch javascript again.

I'm genuinely impressed with #ClaudeCode -- not necessarily with the model fidelity but more with the interface. Not having to copy and paste code is a much bigger time saver than I thought it would be.

@cmhrrs The M series chips are honestly incredible

I've recently been talking a bit about how difficult it is to carefully check even well-written mathematics. I want to try to explain something about this by telling the story of some errors in the literature that (in part) led to the two papers below. 1/n

@ben_levinstein If you're willing to use Inkscape, there is an extension that can convert most simple drawings (beziers, fills, and gradients) into tikz code

[George David Torres @gdtorus]

@cmhrrs Word count? Just curious

@Patrisimoose kartma

@FrnkNlsn I have some old course notes from Bob Gompf's course on contact topology here, complete with some tikz diagrams I spent way too long making: https://t.co/ghjDRTeEIU

Not a lot of literature out there compared to its symplectic cousin

@AlexGDimakis Cool!

Update: my return trip was cancelled. This wouldn't be as bad if I wasn't in a small town that's a $100 Uber ride to my airport. @amtrak refund of $15 is kinda worthless at this point

[George David Torres @gdtorus]

First time riding #Amtrak in 8 years and now I remember why it's been 8 years. Hard to fathom why 2+ hour delays are just 🤷‍♂️ to them

[George David Torres @gdtorus]

@Patrisimoose I'm on the train now, and I will admit the seats are comfy

[George David Torres @gdtorus]

@Patrisimoose This time it was equipment delay, apparently

[George David Torres @gdtorus]

Insert your adjacency matrix and optional styling parameters, and it will produce the graph as well as the TikZ code used to create it. Backend uses #Flask, #LaTeX, #networkx and hosted on #GoogleCloud. Enjoy!

[George David Torres @gdtorus]

If you have an adjacency matrix and want to draw the associated graph in TikZ, here's a tool I made: https://t.co/shDmhwoJMe
