Cloning is the process of producing genetically identical individuals. Dolly the sheep was the first mammal cloned from an adult cell, proving that cloning could work beyond simple organisms.
DNA is the molecule that carries genetic information, and it's a double helix composed of nucleotides. Your DNA determines your hair color, eye color, etc.
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy. They use sunlight to synthesize foods with carbon dioxide and water, producing oxygen as a by-product.
The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of an isolated system always increases. Entropy, is the tendency for things to become disorderly.
The Doppler effect is the apparent change in the frequency of a wave caused by relative motion between the source of the wave and the observer. That’s why when a car honks its horn as it passes you, the sound drops in pitch.
Ernő Rubik, a Hungarian architect and professor, invented what we now know as the Rubik's Cube in 1974. At the time, he was trying to create a teaching tool to help his students understand three-dimensional geometry. The initial version of the cube was made of wood and paper clips, designed to allow the smaller cubes to move independently without the whole structure falling apart.
When Rubik first scrambled his invention, he didn't realize he had created a puzzle. It wasn't until he tried to return the cube to its original state that he understood the challenge he had set for himself. It took him about a month to solve his own puzzle. During this time, Rubik developed a deeper appreciation for the complexity of the cube. He experimented with various strategies, gradually understanding the principles needed to solve it.
The chapter "The Happiness of Excellence" explores three primary forms of happiness: pleasure, grace, and excellence, with excellence being the pursuit of meaningful goals. It emphasizes the importance of deliberate effort and resilience in the pursuit of excellence, which ultimately contributes to a deeper sense of identity and fulfillment in life.

Here to describe the relation between the real world, statistics, and probability.
The real world generates data. The field of statistics and inference uses these data to come up with probabilistic models. Once we have a probabilistic model, we use probability theory and the analysis tools that it provides to us. And the results that we get from this analysis lead to predictions and decisions about the real world.
**Regression and classification in machine learning - explained**
In regression, the goal is to predict a continuous output or numerical value. It involves finding the relationship between input variables and a continuous target variable.
In classification, the goal is to assign input data points to predefined categories or classes. It involves learning a mapping from input variables to discrete output labels.
Integrals that look hard but are actually easy to solve.
Keep watching until the end to see an example of an integral that looks easy but is actually not so straightforward to solve!
Let me know what I should talk about next ❤️
The term "meme", as it was originally coined in 1976, describes an idea, behavior, or style that spreads from person to person within a culture analogous to genes that carry biological information from one generation to the next.
What are some of your favorite memes?
I’m currently working on an AI chatbot for my next project!
The chatbot will be added to my website with the goal of answering questions about myself. If you have any questions for me or if there’s anything you’d like to know more about please send me a DM so I can train my AI model ❤️❤️
What's the difference between science and engineering?
Essentially, the goal of a scientist is to answer questions and discover information in a given field whereas engineers use this information to create products or processes that fill a need and solve problems.
Using hand sanitizer to kill germs on your hands? But how does it work?
It works by killing cells—not human cells. It kills microbial cells. It’s based on the use of 70 per cent isopropanol alcohol, which is rubbing alcohol. That’s the concentration of rubbing alcohol that is most effective in killing germs—it’s even more effective than 100 per cent. Because it has a little bit of water in it that allows for improved penetration. For a virus, sanitizers work by disrupting the virus’s outer coat. For a bacterium, they work by disrupting its cell membrane. Now that’s something to think about the next time you use your hand sanitizer 😉
Did you know that spider silk is by weight stronger than steel? It’s actually 5 times stronger than a steal rod of the same diameter. It is also more elastic and waterproof than silkworm silk and therefore has a wider range of possible applications.
I made the world's FIRST ever OnlyFans notification robot!
It was a really fun project and I cannot believe how much I learned in just a short period of time. Let me know what you think and what I should do next!
