Taylor Approximation ✍️ It shows a mathematical "best guess"... evolving to match a complex 3D shape by adding layers of detail one step at a time. The purple surface is the original goal, while the red grid represents a polynomial approximation anchored at the center point. At first, the red surface can only mimic the very middle of the shape. As the calculation adds more terms, visualized by the red grid rippling and shifting, the approximation "learns" how to curve and bend to match the target more accurately. This is a visual demonstration of how math can break down a detailed, wavy landscape into simpler instructions. When these instructions are stacked together, they recreate the entire surface with incredible precision. Video: mathwithmuzaashow more

Hide your girl This is a voice coil linear... actuator. It's the 2nd fastest linear actuator type for short stroke lengths It's easy to make at home (unlike the 🥇 fastest), all you need is a coil and a magnet (along with the electronics and a linear rail of course) I'll be making this for a product I've been working on for a long timeshow more

New work: The Value Axis 🎯 How do LLMs... choose which path to take mid-task? We find they internally track the chance of reaching their goal along a linear axis, akin to a value function in RL. We show it modulates confidence in math & coding and can be reshaped with DPO and SFT.show more
