and I said I'd take off marks if you did not show your work and he said thats insane

Replying to TinyBomby #tinybomby you can solve any integrals with wolfram alpha, why are you using chat gpt
I use integral-calculator.net, beacuse often you don't even need to bust out wolfram for that
Replying to legorhin #jazardly ask him the integral of the gaussian function
Bad example leg
this is a physics course
we have that shit memorized
usually you can just cite "this is a common result" for those
I mean, I do
I've done it a dozen times
But I meant the result
quantum
its all gaussian integrals
unless you mean something else
positive x^2 idk, negative is well known
Yeah, its just root pie
Root pie, up to some scaling constants depending on the form of your gaussian
I think I was well aware of that by my 2nd year of undergrad
if you do quantum not in the lin alg way, its all just gaussian integrals
which I have never done the lin alg way because they guy who taught me quantum 1 was supposed to do that, but instead did it the PDE calculus way
I guess I vaguely saw some lin alg quantum when I took quantum physics 3 in my 4th year
Yeah, I can see why quantum computing the the lin alg stuff
that makes sense
I think I've done the gaussian integral proof 2 or 3 different ways, the most common one is to square it then take the root of that
I think for most people, having high school math lead into set theory is kind of silly lol
set theory is super important, but idk if its relevant to most people
my computer just crashed, wondered why and checked my syslog
I had a 250GB mem pagefile
I love UE5

He did get that from the mini fridge

idk if I've ever seen this on github before
12 or 14, rarely
but 20, never
I didn't even know github was that old
git repos predated github itself
