Derivative AT a Discontinuity

But this is impossible by definition

Just because 2 things are dual, doesn't mean they're just opposites

The 2 Aspects

Boolean Algebra, Arithmetic POV

(written long time ago, publish or languish)

discontinuous linear functions

Let \(H > \mathbb{Nat}\) be unlimited.

Continuous vs Bounded

Nonstandard analysis gives a nice link between continuous and bounded functions, which are small and large-scale notions.1

My biggest takeaway from Redwood Research REMIX

I just finished a 1 month research program called REMIX (Redwood Research Mechanistic Interpretability Experiment).

finite, actual infinity, potential infinity

For a finite set, one can describe a uniform distribution. There isn’t a natural way to do so for a countable set. But for a hyperfinite set, one can describe a uniform distribution through a probability density. So in some ways the countable is “bigger”.
