If finite elements is so good then why isn't there a finite elements 2? fe2

@Jmendezcarvajal Hopes and prayers twin

Going to a conference today is: AI, AI,AI, agents,AI, AI, again a new agent.

@lightmyacid Don't be talking about my shawty like that

literally the most basic ass assessment and somehow it alludes the western mind

So academic twitter is just deead now?

It's always the BCs. Effing BCs.

@EmperorXLair @teachthemx3 But bullying happens in schools

@teachthemx3 Kids who only spend time with other kids during playtime, but can't learn with other kids, have problems working with teams in the future. Cause that life lesson of seeing how others can learn at different paces or require unique approaches, will be new to them.

I had a new student in my Algebra II class. She was homeschooled previously, and this was her first experience in public school. Two days in, she’s already unerolling. I’m not surprised, given our last conversation. Her words when I asked her what she thought: “I wanted to see what all the hype was and maybe go to prom, but this isn’t for me. Most of class is spent waiting for everyone to open their Chromebooks or figure out what to do after the teacher has literally said it 5 times. And, I can’t use the bathrooms because of all the vaping.” I knew it wasn’t going to work when she brought back an entire unit packet (meant to be completed over 2 weeks) the next day. And no, she didn’t use AI. I asked her a few questions and she could explain the most difficult concepts verbally. She even offered her advice on how the sequencing of the packet could be improved.

@FerrerCfd Thanks Prof

@AbbasComputes Great work Abbas!!

@chenna1985 "not for the weak ones" is a bit harsh common

A PhD and research are supposed to be hard. It is not for the weak ones. If people want easy lives then they should get into other jobs. Don't get into a PhD if you are not 100% certain that it's what you want to do and are confident of dealing with the issues.

@chenna1985 Better than Nitsche’s, who wants to FEM check?

Amazing!

@MaxUnfried intelligence leads to avoidance s they say

@AbbasComputes Yes courage in academia is very scarce. Even more so than genius.

Academia has institutionalized infantilization. PhD students in their mid 20s are treated as kids. Researchers in their mid 30s are junior and need approval from seniors. It’s keeping adults in intellectual adolescence, and independence is delayed until they are obedient.

@chenna1985 rt

I miss deep conversations about stuff!

The lion doesn't concern himself with units. I weigh 73 Amps

@chenna1985 bruv i can't

How can people produce such fits and publish them?

@chenna1985 @richnanophd I guess that "The system needs more risk-tolerant reviewers who recognize disruption potential"

@AbbasComputes @richnanophd Think of computational mechanics research, not AI.

We keep hearing that this kind of fundamental research doesn't get funded. I ask, Why? Who decides it? Certainly not those on the panels who award funding based on review scores, in most cases, right? So, who are those expert reviewers in the field against fundamental research?

@richnanophd @chenna1985 Some things aren't matching in what you're saying. "Visionary" science is what got us here in the first place. "My AI/ML/digital whatever will revolutionize X" type proposals.

@chenna1985 Referees often reward incremental work over visionary science. The system needs more risk-tolerant reviewers who recognize disruption potential.

@Jmendezcarvajal As a DG guy myself I can get behind that

Something that I continuously see in #CFD benchmark of #DG for high order schemes is they compare #DG with #FVM at similar grid sizes. This is like comparing a Ferrari with a Chevrolet at the same speed; while the efficient configuration is not the same for that RPM and Speed.

@chenna1985 Not everyone and it's mostly juniors. Nothing iffy.

@AbbasComputes I see. I am not surprised. DG community oversells. They can't do it if they don't claim novelty.

One might confuse FVM with the FDM. But, it's hard to understand how one might confuse FVM with FEM. 🤔🤔 One reason I can think of is that some write FEM equations node-wise, which is not how FEM is supposed to be understood and implemented. FEM should be looked at element-wise.
