The human nature of failure & resiliency
Projects fail in droves. Systems hiccup and hours of downtime follows. Screws fall out all the time; the world is an imperfect place. We talk a lot about building resilient systems, but all systems are (at least for now) built by humans. Humans who have been making the same types of mista

Learn how to find and classify the discontinuity of the function
👉 Learn how to classify the discontinuity of a function. A function is said to be discontinuous if there is a gap in the graph of the function. Some discontinuities are removable while others are non-removable. There is also jump discontinuity. A discontinuity is removable when the denomi

The problem with `functions' | Arithmetic and Geometry Math Foundations 42a
[First of two parts] Here we address a core logical problem with modern mathematics--the usual definition of a `function' does not contain precise enough bounds on the nature of the rules or procedures (or computer programs) allowed. Here we discuss the difficulty in the context of funct
