I’m glad the storm spread out a little before making ground fall. I don’t have the requisite knowledge to know whether he’s making a credible claim about the mathematical limits of storm intensity, but if it is accurate, the fact that we can go from “tropical depression” to “literally the strongest storm the planet can sustain” in 24 hours is fucking wild.
I was doing full stack dev for 20 years until very recently. Never needed anything beyond basic algebra EXCEPT for while I was getting my CS degree…had 2 classes, i think, where we were doing matrix math/Fourier transforms, but iirc they were electives…one was writing a very basic 3d graphics driver and the other was working with very simple computer vision…things like recognizing handwritten letters.
