I rushed mine, to the extent that my supervisor mentioned it to me a few years later... it was a reflection of my state of mind at the time, exhausted and overwhelmed.. if I ever get around to doing another one I'll…
somewhat of an aside, but really enjoyed the scrolling dynamic on this site
despite having a phd in nonlinear dynamics, I struggle to wrap my head around most of this stuff... but I always found is deeply fascinating. In one system I studied we had a sequence of period doublings, which followed…
the extensibility of matplotlib is simply incredible to me. I've always found the main limiting factor to be my imagination, once I wrap my head around what I want a plot to look like I know matplotlib will facilitate…
exact analytical solutions are nice as a check against any numerical solutions imo. (checking the same calculations in multiple ways is handy for error catching ime)
because it's really hard, and they need to publish :) -- phd in physics
Having spent ~6 years studying nonlinear laser dynamics, it always amuses me to see bifurcation theory pop up on HN. https://neuronaldynamics.epfl.ch/online/Ch4.S4.html A fantastic resource on a lot of this material…
doing the math is seldom enough ;) *KE == kinetic energy kinetic energy: "energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from…
anonymous messages are sometimes very powerful, measurements that are easy to make are not necessarily the right ones to make sometimes you get snowed in, often you get snowed under
a spectacularly unbiased example, multiple measurements, experimental and simulated, of the same thing :) http://imgur.com/a/m2GRZ

Using a term like nonlinear science is like referring to the bulk of zoology as the study of non-elephant animals. — Stanislaw Ulam https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_system
I think this is the paper, which oddly isn't linked in the article: https://arxiv.org/abs/1509.01618
matplotlib. at times it can be tiresome, given the multitude of ways it's possible to do things, but it's always possible
I've only made two submissions. By some odd coincidence both made it to #1, which has scared me off making any further submissions for fear of ruining my perfect score! :D

I'm a physicist (semiconductor lasers), now doing tech support, it's a big change for me, but so far it's been great
I started work at google pretty recently, and expressed an interest in working on a particular project. I made some notes about some of my ideas, and was putting some stuff together to show to one of the teams, to get…
Another vote for firefox OS here, I definitely think they're making a better effort than most in this space. The fact that firefox is targeting entry level devices in a serious way is another positive for me. I've been…
