Differentiation is the study of change. The faster a function rises or falls, the larger its derivative. As the tangent line flattens, the derivative approaches 0, meaning the function stops changing for an instant. A tangent line follows the direction of the curve. Its slope tells you how the... show more

$We were taught the derivative as a formula to memorise. A definition to recite. A rule to apply. Something that "gives you the slope." But nobody told us what the formula was actually saying. Every symbol is a sentence. Every fraction is a question. Every limit is a story about getting closer and closer to something you can never quite touch. The top of the fraction? That's a change. A difference. A before and after. The bottom? That's how long you waited to see it. The limit? That's you, zooming in, refusing to settle for an approximation - chasing the truth all the way down to an interval so small it almost disappears. Put it all together, and you get the most honest question in calculus: How fast is something changing - right now, in this exact instant? Not on average. Not over a minute. Not eventually. Right now. That's it. That's the derivative. It's not a trick. It's not a rule. It's a beautifully precise way of asking a very human question: what's happening, in this moment? We spent years solving these. Maybe it's time we actually understood them.$

Jensen's inequality gives the difference between the average value of a convex function φ, and its value at the center, where both “average” and “center” are defined in terms of some distribution p_X. When the function φ is flat, or the distribution is narrow, they agree.

Gauss-Lucas theorem states that the roots of the derivative of a polynomial with complex coefficients always lie within the convex hull of the original polynomial's roots.

Sculpture of the Ras protein (G12C) bound to GDP and the drug Sotorasib (AMG510). The protein is half bronze and half steel with a copper seam between the two metals. Represents how the drug locks the protein in a unique conformation that blocks its function and cancer growth.

Fights in Tight Spaces' new K9 DLC adds a dog companion that assists players on missions. Among its many abilities is the "Pet" function, which boosts the damage of the dog's next attack.

In #Kotlin 1.9, instead of using the "until" infix function to create a range that's exclusive on its upper bound, you can use the new open-ended range operator... or as I like to call it, the alligator operator.

Reminder: The Democrats are not an opposition party. Their function is to sell the illusion of democracy and cover up the truth, which is that the US is a dictatorship of capital where every aspect of society from the government to the economy is controlled by and for the rich.

Once completed this will surely be the most beautiful rail line .The Bilaspur - Leh railway line has crossed a major milestone with its DPR ready at an estimated cost of around ₹1 lakh +crore.Even more amazing is that the govt is exploring scopes for nuclear power to run this line .

Have seen a lot of people saying the Tatis throw shouldn’t have been cutoff last night. As the relay guy you line up in a perfectly straight line between the RF and the catcher. If the throw takes you too much in either direction you know the cut is needed. In this instance the throw took him a little too far to the left meaning the throw would’ve been too far up the line to have a chance. He made the right call to cut and relay it home. This is a perfect visual.

BREAKING: 🇨🇳 New Chinese unmaned drone carrier aircraft is entering the military in June An unmanned aircraft developed by China, known as the Jiutian SS-UAV, is preparing for its maiden flight in June. With a range of 7,000 kilometers, the platform is designed to function as an airborne launch hub, capable of deploying over 100 miniature drones or carrying a payload of up to one ton in missiles while cruising at 15,000 meters.
