* UmbralRaptor did not know that you could get a matrix from the dot product of two vectors
<SnoopJeDi> I think that's the wrong reading there? g_AB is a single entry in a matrix, right?
<SnoopJeDi> like, the first equation tells you the entire structure of the matrix ("you tell me A and B and I'll tell you a number"), and the second one is...just g, I think?
<SnoopJeDi> (pretty obnoxious that A,B are used for both unnormalized vectors *and* indices?)
<mlbaker> you can get a rank one matrix from the outer product of two vectors...
<UmbralRaptor> yeah, summation convention >_<
<SnoopJeDi> yea, the outer product lets you go "up" in rank
<SnoopJeDi> which is why it's "outer"...uhh, and by "rank" I mean tensor order, not the linear algebraic meaning (dammit math)
<UmbralRaptor> asdadfsgsd
<SnoopJeDi> hmm, not sure what kind of product asdadfsgsd is
<UmbralRaptor> qwerty subtype of the keyboard mash product

<UmbralRaptop> There's an uncomfortably high probability that I will be arguing with a teacher because he doesn't realize that 64bit floats are common now (and apparently 64bit consumer hardware started showing up before the top quark?)
<e_14159> UmbralRaptop: Argue that 16bit float hardware has now appeared? :P
<e_14159> More serious answer: Does it help you to prove them wrong?
<UmbralRaptop> possibly

<SnoopJeDi> e_14159, I have followed a similar realignment of my priorities in interpersonal interactions and wow holy moley I can say for sure it's been useful to me.

<SnoopJeDi> I think it's a priority thing

<mofh> bloody hell this week is being absolutely insane
<egg> mofh: are you around
<egg> mofh: can you look at Symmetric multistep methods over long times, look at the paragraph following equation (2.1), look at the reference to (2.1) in 5.1, and figure out what convention they are using for the order of a difference formula
<mofh> egg: kinda, looking at that now tho
