Just a curious mathematician trying to learn more about the universe today than I did yesterday.

@MarathonTheGame any chance we get a "Season 1 In Review" so we can see some cool stats?

Just realize for a moment: As a @DestinyTheGame and @MarathonTheGame fan, for the next few weeks we get to experience what it feels like to have two amazing games by #Bungie dropping amazing content. I hope #Sony sees the love and realizes what they have.

As I continue to dive deeper into AI, the more hopeful I am that it will help humanity solve some of our most challenging problems. I know there's a lot of fear and resentment for AI, but I want to help people see that there are some amazing upsides if we employ it appropriately.

@BungieHelp Anyone else figure out how to beat the "currant" mission yet? It seems to be the one that we always get after trying to do anything... Must be important.

[Joshua Carroll 🧢 @GH0ST116]

@BungieHelp So, we have to first land at the location to start a mission. Then you go to the flag to start the mission. You've introduced two points in which you can have an error, and made this worse for us. Why not just let us launch the campaign missions from orbit? Cut out a step?

@BungieHelp You've been doing this for 10 years.... 10 years. No lessons learned?

reasons to knock these bases/nests out. This could help vary load-outs, with some players focusing on base busting and others going more tactical to complete OBJs. It'll make missions feel more tactical and rewarding for the risk you take, and expand play-styles.

Something that would make missions feel more interactive: have each base/nest you destroy reduce the spawn rate on that map a bit, with all of them adding up to a certain % reduction. For example, small base/nest = 5%, medium=10%,

the enemies within a mission. Destroy their capabilities to generate more of themselves, and you improve your odds. This will extend mission time, which is risky, but can pay off, especially at higher difficulties. As of now, outside of completeness, there isn't a tactical

@jleagle94 Bc of my story I've heard "he pulled himself up by his bootstraps" and I hate it. Most people don't even have said boots! My story shouldn't elicit the question "if he did it, why can't you?" Instead it should be "why would someone have to go through that just for a better life?"

@maanow Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos by Steven Strogatz.

If you have a decent understanding of Calculus, Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra, you can pick this up and essentially teach yourself Chaos Theory. Such a fantastic book!

@Mrs_Meowmerz Python can be learned via YouTube and other sources. I downloaded Jupyter and Anaconda and watched lots of videos on the specific things I wanted to do. It won't be as structured as a class, but if you aim your videos at specific projects, you can learn a lot!

@amuse Furthermore, it was a Democrat (Lyndon Johnson) who signed the Civil Rights act to protect minorities and that was where the GOP decided it wasn't the liberal party anymore as they opposed that act. So yeah, 100 years ago the parties were very different. Who would have thought?

[Joshua Carroll 🧢 @GH0ST116]

@amuse Not understanding how parties change over time and associating an organization based simply on a name is really not a good way to form an argument. The GOP used to be the liberal party as they were concentrated in the northern states and around large cities. "Never forget"...

@Anthony_Bonato That it takes "a genius" or "someone who thinks special" to do it. Either that or the idea that math is not a creative or fun thing to do; just memorization and "pointless" equations.

[Joshua Carroll 🧢 @GH0ST116]

@thevegdoc Is this... Real? Wow...

[Joshua Carroll 🧢 @GH0ST116]

If I ever get to teach Nonlinear Dynamics, I'm 100% stealing this.

Would you sign up for a Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos course with an ad like this?
