n^n^n^n^n^n is an upper bound for general n, but the special case of only 2 people can be done with just 1 query.
the algorithm is just to have person A cut into two equal slices and then person B choose their favorite slice. it takes just 1 second, which is quite a speedup over the upper bound...
Yep, this is it. The key is not that there are two time dimensions but two independent time translation symmetries, each which translates the system by a different period of time corresponding to the two frequencies in their pulse. The two time dimensions is an analogy that’s useful for the theoretical treatment of such a system.
does anyone know if you could take a window and make it always be in the background -- the reverse of "always on top", say "always on bottom"? doesn't seem to be an option on Mac or in Gnome that I can tell but maybe there is someway to gain that functionality.
looks great. wish I could break it free from the browser though. a browser tab can't really be the backdrop to my work, and clicking into a browser tab just to view the visualization is an extra distraction -- defeating the purpose. Doesn't seem realistic, but I wish I could set this to be my desktop background without loosing the interactivity.
My understanding is that this project is more of a way for established researchers in a very theoretical field to start thinking about climate while using their existing skill sets to contribute.
