Divergence Theorem
  • I remember reading this during calculus. My basic understanding is that it is useful to explain conservation of a quantity. Can you explain the physical/ historical significance of this theorem?

  • Modern SMS App?
  • Can you suggest one with cutting edge features? As of now I am using Microsoft's SMS organizer. As much as Iove open source apps, I have not been able to find one that will sort the messages neatly into different tabs or automatically detect spam.

  • YSK : Dark patterns among large companies are becoming more mainstream

    While it is no secret that exploitative practices are interlaced with capitalistic tendencies, the practices are becoming intolerable. Signing up to pay usually takes only two clicks that are prominently visible whereas cancelation options are hidden away in deep settings requiring multiple clicks. Pricing often feel arbitrary with no reference points. Every large company grows with the intention of exhibiting monopolistic behavior. This is not sustainable and should not be tolerated.

    YSK : Moral values of being nice, forgiving and generosity are justified by game theory to be successful strategies

    Prisoner's dilemma is a problem commonly featured in game theory. Each player is given an option to be either nice or nasty. Each combination of player plays multiple number of rounds. When tested against different strategies, it is found that the best performing strategies are :

    • nice first ( they don't start the provoking),
    • retaliatory (when opponent is nasty they also resond nasty),
    • forgiving (they don't hold grudges),
    • clear (their strategies are clear for opponent to interpret) and
    • generous (when the opponent has been nasty, they do not retaliate 10℅ of the time )
