Wow, that first one is so cool.

Yeah, I misremembered the Interstellar paper that said it was the first simulation for a movie and thought it was the first image simulation ever. It's even referencing the old one there.

The second one. The image is simulated as how an external observer would see it. It was firstly done for the Interstellar movie.

Also the 2D gaussian integral is used to give an insight on why the 1D gaussian integral is sqrt of pi. Here is a video with cool visualization for anyone interested.

That should be an approximation. To get exactly pi the range of both integrals should be from minus infinity to infinity like this. It's the integral of the 2D Gaussian, which is fairly known.

Why share a service of a corporation when it is available in open library projects? https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/emma-goldman-my-disillusionment-in-russia

In most cases no. Sometimes they let their developers contribute to the open source projects for a small percentage of their working time.

Also I feel like the bare metal ones would collect a bunch of mud inside filtering through the gaps and affecting the balance.

Here the more pragmatic use of truth is being used, which most of the people would agree in its objectiveness. Either the real person did the call or not.

Even in the philosophical concept of truth different schools of thoughts have different views on its objectiveness. Here is a better resource I think.

Capital and price are imaginary. Why are you evaluating a system by random concepts that don't correspond to anything real?

Maybe use a metric with actual real meaning like fraction of people with basic necessities covered.

Now we only have child miners, child slaughter house workers, child assembly line workers, child scrapyard garbage collectors, ...

Yes. Photography captures an instant of the real world. The photographer still has to choose the moment, perspective, composition, filters and so on, but they are very constrained (not as much as AI prompters).

The debate about the artistic involvement of photography has existed sonce the invention of the camera, it's not something new.
