I wonder how many new variants will emerge, just because people are vaccinated...
<esspapier>
people (and some media) are already talking about covid-21 due to all the different mutations
<esspapier>
fun times ahead
<flayer>
there's going to be a wildly mutating virus at one point that eradicates humanity
<Althego>
the uk is alarming but not that bad with the vaccines happening. i dont know about the brazilian variant, but i knew for a while that some of the vaccines are down to 60% with the south african
<Althego>
so if we can do the vaccinations fast enough, then the parallel mutation routes of the virus go down and we can avoid selection pressure, since there will be almost no virus remaining
<Althego>
but with speed vaccinations are going to take many months
<flayer>
by that time the disease will have run its course
<Althego>
does it have a course?
<flayer>
infect all of humanity
<Althego>
there is always a few percent natural immunity
<flayer>
sure
<flayer>
and most people will recover just fine
<flayer>
just like with the spanish flu, it will largely vanish and become irrelevant
<Althego>
does anybody know what the actual death rate is?
<flayer>
unless the mutations keep going
<Althego>
of course they are keep going
<flayer>
but its unlikely the mutations will reinfect everyone
<Althego>
i think it is here to stay. but once the total mass infections go away, since you are either vaccinated or already had it, it will be like the flu
<flayer>
the spanish flu came back a few years ago
<flayer>
it was barely even noticeable
<flayer>
that's how covid19 will go as well
<Izaya>
on the upside, the new tech they've been using for the vaccines
<Izaya>
it should allow faster responses to new strains
<raptop>
math is usually tough because you get a non-constructive proof that a solution exists during lecture, and then need to find the solution entirely on your own
<minas_tirith>
Math is tough because you have to prove shit
<minas_tirith>
Proofs are tough, especially on abstract structure
<minas_tirith>
Proofs are tough, especially on abstract structures
<Althego>
minas_tirith: no swearing
<minas_tirith>
Sorry
<minas_tirith>
raptop, math seems to require a lot of thinking
<flayer>
i don't do sums that i have to think about it
<minas_tirith>
flayer, sum is a very general concept
<raptop>
just do quick hacks like gauss
<kubi_x>
sum is everything
<kubi_x>
you do not need anything else
<minas_tirith>
You can sum reals, complex numbers, vectors, matrices, functions
<flayer>
i don't know what any of those are
<kubi_x>
also, multiplication is just some sums
<minas_tirith>
kubi_x, its not that simple. Even in case of reals, once you get into fractional numbers multiplication becomes complicated
<minas_tirith>
Reals themselves are peculiar and complicated
<kubi_x>
it is not about if it is complicated or not
<Althego>
martin is pumping out videos on the second wintergatan channel as if there is no tomorrow
* raptop
slaps kubi_x around with a ring
<Althego>
hehe
<minas_tirith>
Does ring have multiplication defined
<Althego>
yes
<minas_tirith>
Generalization of fields apparently
<minas_tirith>
So yes
<Althego>
i hate that we were never taught the english equivalent of all the words of mathematics and physics
<minas_tirith>
What
<Althego>
it is really hard to look up what is what. ok i could have taken both courses in english, but at that time i thought it was hard enough to pass even without that
<minas_tirith>
What language did you learn math in
<Althego>
so if i think of the words that are used, ring was equivalent, but for field i would translate that to english as body. and lattice, as a net. a lattice sounds like a grid to me, not at all a net. really annoying
<minas_tirith>
Same
