Por que no los dos? Scientific review times are up, it’s harder to find reviewers, and many reviews are AI generated anyway. Auto-generated research publications will arguably make the replication crisis worse, because there will be more slop to clog up the review system, and these papers will presumably be just as (if not more) not reproducible than human written science

Thank you for writing a much more thoughtful reply to this comment than I was drafting

Good point, this is probably the author assuming a little more context on the reader’s part. The cases where you can record from neurons in humans are very rare (basically only in treatment resistant epilepsy), and most of the work on hippocampus uses rodents

This approach implies the probability doesn’t depend on N. It only happens to be 1/2 for N=4 (the article goes into this). The trick is that you don’t know beforehand which semicircle all the points can land in, but your unwrapping step assumes you do.

Matlab is annoying for many reasons. But to me the main advantage of using Matlab over Python is the plotting.

Plotting in Python is still a pain. Notebooks help, but they still don’t let you add to a plot piece-by-piece; and 3D plots are possible but nowhere close to as simple as it is in Matlab.

One surprise of reading this thread was learning that Terry Tao is an active user of Math Overflow!
