TemporaryHansel:
The kind of reception Prince harry and co are getting in Nigeria despite not being working royals just seem somehow to me, a treatment they can’t even get in their home country(UK) right now. If Prince williams or the king himself visit Nigeria, that means the whole country will just be shut down for him oh.

Just curious why Nigerians like worshipping foreigners.
The reason is simple: The whites have higher levels of collective intelligence generally than the blacks.

That's a fact, and there's nothing racist about it. Your observation is just one of the many pieces of solid evidence backing this assertion.

Whites have intelligent people and thinkers in higher numbers than blacks in the modern world.

A couple of months ago, I was studying the history of the whites, especially in Physics and Mathematics, and read the histories of Western thinkers, such as William Clifford (the brain behind Clifford Algebra), Abel (abelian math), Knuth (the brain behind LaTeX), Einstein, and many others.

How many of such people have Africans produced in modern times? Small. Even Africans won't allow such people to develop and excel unless they find a way to leave the continent.

At a deep level, something is seriously wrong with the African people, especially those ones that have been infected with cancers called "holy books" from Arabia and Israel, which make them despise and demonize their native cultures and traditions.

I love what this Igbo guy is doing reviving the Nsibidi writing system in his project called the Modern Nsibidi Project.

Yesterday, I learnt about the Nsibidi keyboard he developed, which can be downloaded online:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2ASYdxiKOM

Even though I don't know him personally, I admire his great intelligence, creativity, and courage embarking on such a laudable project, which he personally funds.

I'm almost certainly sure Yorubas also had their own indigenous writing system, as claimed by Otem some years ago.

If I was in the field of Linguistics or delved into it in the future, I could develop a native writing system for the Yorubas, with characters based on the Odu Ifa literary corpus, and not the Latin characters currently in use in Yoruba language.

It's not good for a people to rely on everything made by foreign peoples and not to come up with their own native (home-grown) systems.

Roland17:

The human brain is such a beauty.
The human brain is really wondrous, and there is still a lot about it that brain scientists and other experts don't know as of now.

The human brain is such a complex organ; all aspects of reality (Mother Nature) we perceive as real and solid are all products of imagination by the brain. Our technologies, cars, arts, movies, music, everything else are all pictures generated by the brain as these things don't really exist the way we perceive them to be.

They're simply consciousness and energy. Even the Universe as a whole don't actually exist the way we think. It's just an idea in the head.

It's the brain playing games on us because the majority can't see beyond the matrix — the three spatial dimensions and one temporal dimension (4D).

For me, I was blown away by their ability to remove the DNA of the pig before transplant. These are uncharted territories we have ventured into. The human brain is such a beauty.
Thanks for sharing this, bro. This an interesting research area, which I'm currently doing research work on as one of the applications of Consciousness Science.

I believe breakthroughs will be achieved in the field of xenotransplantation in the coming years when scientists find a way to link different fields of Medicine together with other fields and disciplines.

There's a way to do this using Consciousness Science as a tool inspired by the Odu Ifa literary corpus, and we're building the application for that currently. We're close to completing the first phase.

Medicine (including xenotransplantation, genetics, and the likes) also falls under Consciousness Science in my approaches.

Arsenal might just shock many people and carry the EPL this season. Two more games to go for them.

Obviously, the title race will be a closely fought one between Arsenal and Manchester City.

Clifford Pickover's 'A Passion for Mathematics' is such a fascinating book.

Along with 'The Princeton Companion to Mathematics', this Pickover's book is one of the best books of Math I've read.

Reading all these books, one can only but admire the infinite potential of the human mind in the mathematical arena.

This realm is noted for characters, such as numbers like natural numbers, real numbers, hyperreal and surreal numbers, complex numbers, hypercomplex numbers, and even much more advanced ones, such as Grassmannian numbers, Clifford numbers, and others.

These Clifford Pickover's books are worth checking out:

1. A Passion for Mathematics
2. Archimedes to Hawking: Laws of Science and the Great Minds Behind Them
3. The Math Book: From Pythagoras to the 57th Dimension, 250 Milestones in the History of Mathematics
4. The Physics Book: From the Big Bang to Quantum Resurrection.
5. The Medical Book: From Witch Doctors to Robot Surgeons.
6. The Mathematics Devotional: Celebrating the Wisdom and Beauty of Mathematics
7. The Physics Devotional: Celebrating the Wisdom and Beauty of Physics
8. Death and the Afterlife: A Chronological Journey, from Cremation to Quantum Resurrection
9. The Science Book: From Darwin to Dark Energy
10. Artificial Intelligence: An Illustrated History, From Medieval Robots to Neural Networks

Almost all of them are available for free online. Enjoy!

Jonathan was 100% right. APC is the worst thing to happen to Nigeria in her history.

The fact that people are not even protesting at this period shows all the protests in this country are politically motivated.

I wonder how much arsenal bribed him.
He should be investigated for match fixing. It's just to glaring this man is deliberately messing Chelsea up.

By now he should even be investigated for match fixing for that back line in our last match. I don't know why that nonsense English FA is wasting time.
What is good for the toney is good for the pochettino.
These were my thoughts too. I can't believe a so-called professional coach can be that dull. One kind mago mago seems to be happening in Chelsea games this season under Poch.

Sometimes, it's like he deliberately sets up the team or makes changes during games for the team to lose or draw.

Ok, explain how it is being used in imperative and functional programming.
The image below is from the Google Books description of the author, Donald Knuth.

I'm not an expert in functional programming. However, a brief glance at some concepts in Mathematics is enough for me to know how they can be applied in computer programming.

So, if you know the history of the development of programming languages, such as Julia, Wolfram Language, and the likes, you'd quickly understand the key role that number theory and many other concepts in Mathematics play in the development of algorithms (functions) in a programming language.

ToyinDipo:

Do your research. Donald Knuth, the inventor of the concept, is a renowned computer scientist.

That's enough to show the application of the concept in that field. Surreal numbers are a concept under number theory, which is essential in the development of programming languages and computing generally.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by A001: 1:26pm On Apr 22
ToyinDipo:

You like arguments.
The person you cited, is perhaps the best programmer ever, how come he is just realizing the usefulness of these ideas, after is he is almost retired, if they were really applicable to programming or functional programming, which is just based on lambda concepts.
Why don't you do a bit of research on what you're discussing instead of arguing ignorantly? Donald Knuth wrote the book on surreal numbers (a term he coined) as far back as 1974, and he's just realising the usefulness of surreal numbers in 2024?

Your comment sef dey make me laugh
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by A001: 11:05am On Apr 22
ToyinDipo:

You already proved my point.
Lols, what point? Those number systems I discussed have practical importance in science and technology, especially Computer Science (programming, functional programming).

It's people doing elementary Physics in secondary schools and some research areas in Physics that the numbers have no practical use for.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by A001: 10:17pm On Apr 21
ToyinDipo:

When he was describing a number that if you add to pi, you get the number closest to pi. If I understood him right, in maths, I think they may say a number approaches infinity, that is, it is sufficiently large and can be counted as infinity, what he was describing, if I remember the maths terms rightly, are numbers approaching negligible values, they are sufficiently small to be equal to zero, so practically they are considered zero.
Yes, they're considered zero in the practical sense. This is due to the fact that such infinitesimal (extremely small) numbers don't have a physical kind of existence to us, humans, because of our narrow scope of perception.

But apart from the physical kind of existence, there are other forms of existence, such as the mental type. So, surreal numbers (and others like hyperreal and superreal numbers) have a mental kind of existence, living in the brains (minds) of their inventors and those studying them.

While laypeople may not appreciate these numbers, they actually hold deep significance with regard to the underlying structures (fundamental structures) of the matrix we, humans, perceive as reality.

As I said before, people that know a lot of numbers (especially highly complex numbers like hyperreal, surreal numbers, and the likes) know a lot of mysteries about nature (the Universe).

So, it's good to study numbers.

These is an Einstein type of idea, very impractical.
Impractical in what sense? And which idea are you referring to specifically?

This is a beautiful story on how mathematicians invent numbers and other concepts in Mathematics:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPn2AdMH7UQ?si=DwH4C_A3_IepNcQH

This video delves into how Donald Knuth, a professor emeritus of Mathematics and Computer Science, came about the concept of surreal numbers building on the foundational work done by another renowned mathematician, John Horton Conway, on the subject.

The surreal number system is so fascinating. This is a case study of how these numbers come to their authors and inventors in states such as wakeful states, dreams, meditations, and others, showing the existence of other dimensions apart from the physical dimensions.

Why Jogginghoe will never win a major league except he returns to Serie A in a weak field

No season goes by where he won't drop you points in few games with possession turnover or escorting
Arsenal still had a slim chance to stage a comeback in the game until Jorginho decided to help the visitors with the second goal, lols

Highlight of the Arsenal game for me: "... Jorginho giving the ball away..." — the commentator

Jorginho did a giveaway and got punished by Watkins, putting Aston Villa two goals ahead of the hosts.

"World Quantum Day is an annual celebration promoting public awareness and understanding of quantum science and technology around the world.

"From the fabric of spacetime to the GPS on your phone, the Universe speaks the language of quantum mechanics.

"Quantum physics is the most fundamental theory we have to describe Nature at the level of the elementary particles and forces that constitute our Universe. Join us, as we explore the many dimensions of the quantum realm."

Perhaps they believe the drowning was an act of the gods. Lols.

Look at all the time wasted and no one even thought he needed a CPR? Such a pitiful situation for his wife and kids.

Government and bodies such as NGOs, citizens need to educate and orientate Nigerians about the importance of learning CPR and other medical techniques that are vital in case of emergencies like this.

Jesus Christ or God no dey save anyone. Even Yeshua couldn't save himself from being crucified in the past era.

On this planet, we only have ourselves, our family, good friends, and the government (if they're reliable). That's our support system: our fellow humans, not Jesus or any god.

Ahn ahn, Junior Pope still finally died

He was revived at the hospital but I guess the damage was too much

Maybe he would have survived if CPR was administered immediately he was fished out of the water
Roland17:
I watched one of the videos circulating of Junior Pope and I am saddened, bot necessarily because of the incident but the total lack of basic, I mean basic CPR (drowning CPR to expel excess fluid and provide air) knowledge in Nigeria.

Someone is laying lifeless on the ground and I can see people blowing a piece of paper for air with the lifeless body crowded. Why on earth has no one initiated chest compressions, even if you don’t know the number of compressions needed and or rescue breaths? (Rescue breaths is critical for drowning situations also)

Listen, if you are an adult, especially an adult with children and reading this, please and please, do yourself and family a favor, learn CPR and the Heimlich maneuver (for choking). Also teach your family members, including your children these basic life saving procedures.

Both can be the difference between life and death. They can be the difference between death and irreversible brain damage even if the person survives.

Belief in Jesus or Allah won't allow people to know all these things. People wey dey look for miracles all about can't see the importance of learning CPR to save lives, after all Jesus is the ultimate lifesaver based on their belief.

May we never be unfortunate in life by experiencing some medical conditions among Nigerians. Na useless prayers dem go dey chant all about instead of taking the necessary steps medically urgently before it's too late.

True true, he is alive. Well done to the person that said Nigerians need to learn CPR. Man was just full of water and needed his lungs pumping.
In the online video, na Jesus dem dey praise say he revive am. They believe they need Jesus Christ more than learning such a vital life-saving technique like CPR. No wonder Nigeria has one of the lowest life expectancies in the world.

People can't be this dumb and ignorant, and their ignorance won't shorten their life.

Make person no ust get bad luck and find himself in this situation among Nigerians requiring the use of CPR. Na useless prayers in the name of Jesus Christ or Allah the mumu people go dey recite, instead of doing the needful (applying the needed medical technique).
