There's a word people around me used to use a lot, phonetically it would spell 'stercus' or 'stircus', I think. It was used in a context meaning excitable, frenzied, frenetic, that kind of thing. Like, you could say that: Kids who eat lots of sugar tend to go stercus. I don't know if it's an ac...

I am learning about "derived manifolds" from talks of Ping Xu in Higher Structures in Geometry and Mathematical Physics. As far as I understand, one of the main philosophy behind the introduction of derived smooth manifolds is to come up with spaces that have the property of fiber product. In sim...

I know there have been computer games which rely on a fixed CPU frequency. Instead of a clock function they rely on the fact that the CPU needs some time to execute the code. But why did they do it?

If we go from state A to B in an reversible process, then ΔS_universe = 0. However, my confusion starts if we take an irreversible route.
