Math is art. Machine instructions are an abstraction derived from mathematical operations at the hardware level. Assembly is a low-level representation of these instructions. Your C code compiles down to assembly, and Python was implemented in C. Learn the math.

But... Machine instructions are specific implementations of mathematical operations, not abstractions derrived from them

yeah you're kind of right.

Linus Torvalds says that C is king for OS development due to its efficient hardware interaction and the ability to predict the assembly language output of C code.

FINALLY finishing up a MASSIVE PR from hell for the Sega Dreamcast port of Grand Theft Auto 3! This is an actual hardware capture now of the DC version under a high load, which would've previously been a slideshow, between the dynamic lighting from the sirens, the amount of rigid bodies in the physics simulation from the cars, and the high-speed chase placing high-demands on asset streaming... I went through all of the low-level common math infrastructure in both the engine and at the RenderWare driver layer and made numerous optimizations, before slowly working my way up to optimizing individual algorithms at the application layer using the new math routines. Firstly, the common low-level floating-point math routines for everything from trig and inverse square root operations to floor(), ceiling(), and clamp(), were replaced with what was meticulously found (in Compiler Explorer) to be the optimal patterns for GCC 14.2.0, targeting our SH architecture (sometimes favoring C builtins, sometimes inline SH4 ASM). Next, in the layer above, with inline SH4 assembly, the common matrix math and linear algebra routines were accelerated using the Dreamcast's vector instructions. Some cleverness went down here, such as cramming matrix metadata into unused insignificant bits of an element, combining loading two matrices with multiplying them, fast transposes, fast quaternion multiplication using 4 dot products, etc. Once the foundation was laid, some of the Renderware code such as the calculations for the lighting, updating bounding volumes, and deriving UV coordinates for specular environment maps on the cars was made faster automatically. The main gainz were actually made rewriting a decent amount of the collision intersection and contact resolution code, though, from using C++-style overloaded operators for multiplying single 4D vectors by a 4x4 matrix to doing batches of 4D vectors by the same matrix. This SUBSTANTIALLY reduced the number of times the backing 4x4 matrix bank had to be reloaded and allowed me to keep it resident within registers while it was being used by the intersection algorithms!

Your DNA is like a computer program according to Blaise Agüera (@blaiseaguera.bsky.social). Von Neumann figured this out before scientists even discovered how DNA works -- that for anything to make a copy of itself, it needs: * Instructions (the code/DNA) * A machine to read those instructions (ribosomes) * A "photocopier" for the instructions (DNA polymerase) Blaise reckons that your cells are running actual computations to build proteins and replicate i.e. life is "software" running on hardware.

Terence Tao summarized how AI is massively accelerating math career and math research. "In math, you previously had to basically go through years and years of education to be a math PhD before you could contribute to the frontier of math research. But now it's quite possible at the high school level or whatever, that you could get involved in a math project and actually make a real contribution because of all these AI tools and lean and everything else." From Dwarkesh Patel podcast (link to full video in comment)

Going from design to code is going from something built and usable to an unnecessary level of abstraction. It's like finishing a house then asking for the blueprints so someone else can rebuild it. Design is code. Code is design. Use a code-first canvas. Use MagicPath.

Jordi: It seems pretty obvious that the models just getting smarter is not by default going to make adoption accelerate massively again. If you're a business that's not doing code-gen, not generating a bunch of assets, etc. - and somebody says, "For $20 a month, you get someone that's PhD level in math, but extremely low agency." A laundromat would be like, "Actually, I don't need somebody who's PhD level at math. Sir this is a laundromat."

Bjarne Stroustrup (Creator of C++) on the costs of abstraction: "It's compiled away. This is why I talk about zero overhead abstraction. And people are beginning to take me to task for that because that's underestimating the ability of the C++ compiler. We can do negative overhead abstraction." Ryan: "What if you're really good at writing assembly and had all the time in the world to write it?" Bjarne: "If you are very smart and you have infinite time, you can do better. By and large, we are not as smart as the optimizers anymore, and we don't have infinite time."

Here's some accidental mathematical art in Excel. Each cell is a²b-b mod c where b is the column, c is the row, and a varies from 1 to 30. I put a heat map on the cells (small=red, big=green) and noticed the beautiful patterns.

.Adam Marblestone explains the value of all these efforts to have AI automate formal math reasoning: "I think of it like when everybody had to write assembly code. The amount of cool startups that got created was a lot less. Fewer people could do it. Progress was more grinding, slow, and lonely. I think there are actually lots of people who could have interesting ideas. Can you have outsider string theorists because the math is just done for them by the computer? Does that lead to more innovation in string theory? Maybe yes."

I've combined Manim Nous Research's Hermes Agent skill + 's Math Code. Math Code executes the proof on a problem called Jordan's Lemma and Hermes Agent with Claude Sonnet 3.7 directs Math Code, writes a script, gets Manim to render an explanatory video. Jordan's Lemma: It helps to simplify high-dimensional problems by breaking them down into manageable, 2D pieces. The lemma is the underlying mathematical reason why Grover's Algorithm (useful in quantum) works by rotating within a 2D plane. Rendered explanation video below:
