what are your thoughts on “whence”?

[–] affiliate@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

if you appear to be a man, and are in fact, born male, then I will address you as such.

does this mean you acknowledge the existence of transgender women but not transgender men?

what’s even the point of a download link if you don’t have a guide that tells you how to click the link

that would be a lot clearer. i’ve just been burned in the past by notation in analysis.

my two most painful memories are:

  • in the (baby) rudin textbook, he uses f(x+) to denote the limit of _f _from the right, and f(x-) to denote the limit of f from the left.
  • in friedman analysis textbook, he writes the direct sum of vector spaces as M + N instead of using the standard notation M ⊕ N. to make matters worse, he uses M ⊕ N to mean M is orthogonal to N.

there’s the usual “null spaces” instead of “kernel” nonsense. ive also seen lots of analysis books use the → symbol to define functions when they really should have been using the ↦ symbol.

at this point, i wouldn’t put anything past them.
