i think it would be cool if your body could signal to you when you need to drink more water. kinda like how you feel sleepy when you havent had enough caffeine..,or how you get hungry when you skip too many meals in a row

explaining knot theory to an american: so imagine a highway
article quote: "To construct the Alexander polynomial, imagine that at each crossing, there’s an optional down ramp from the overpass to the underpass. When a car reaches an overpass, there’s some probability — call it x — that the car will take the down ramp instead of the overpass."
also there is a depiction of a car travelling along a trefoil knot as if it were a highway

there are some moments in life that show us that we still have a lot to learn from nature. for instance, this creature is seemingly able to touch grass without any problems, but when i do the same thing i instantly disintegrate

Research code is notorious for being hard to read and maintain, and for good reason. But now with the widespread availability of AI tools, we can generate 10x more research-quality code that's even harder to maintain. ...wait, is that a good thing?

im so fed up with origami. every model requires you to have 4 hands with 8 fingers each and the ability to create wormholes, plus you need infinitely thin origami paper that doesnt tear and your folds need micron-level precision or your build falls apart. also telekinesis is helpful but not required
