"wok hei" is the charred, smoky taste from Chinese stir-fry dishes, which you can only get at very high temperatures, usually with an open flame.
You do not want to expose Teflon pans to high temperatures because it can degrade the non-stick coating. This is why most woks are made of carbon steel, which work fine over a large flame.
Note: if you're stuck with an induction stove (like I am) you're not going to get wok hei even at the highest setting. It's possible to cheat with a butane torch, or by taking it outside with an outdoor wok burner.
So we dont know anything about his math/theorem generation process. By his own admission he saw visions of math/theorem god, which is a BS claim since god doesn't exist. So "god whispered theorems in my sleep" is just a proxy for "I coped it from someone". Many of his so called theorems are false (by Hardy's own admission). Lot of progress in math depends on the "process", not just the end result. But he shares nothing about the process.
"we don't know anything about his math generation process"
My man just look at the notebooks. He did not use formal proofs but he was very organized and most of his equations had quite a logical buildup from equations that he wrote before. And even the ones that came out of nowhere are obviously worthy discoveries.

Shit reasoning like this from atheists like you is why I cringe to admit I'm an atheist when people ask me about my religious beliefs. It is entirely conceivable that he saw visions of math, produced by his own subconscious, and attributed these visions to a god. It would not be terribly dissimilar from any artist who attributes their creative visions to a muse. Do you accuse any such artist of plagiarism too?
Lacking formal training does not equate cannot understand something. As far as copying something goes, there should have been an equivalent mathematician nearby from whom he can copy, right? Who is it?
As an atheist myself, I do not believe in god and I do not believe Ramanujam got it from god. However, it does not change the fact Ramanujan thought he got it from god because he could not necessarily explain how he made those intuitive leaps.
The results of his collaboration with Hardy (the approximations for the partition function and the circle method) make it clear he knew well what he was doing. Nobody was doing anything similar at the time.
A feline can make a precise jump between two points and be utterly unable to explain how it computed the force signals to send to its legs to make the jump. It probably doesn't even know force or muscles. Formal training isn't everything.
I see that. But you're making it sound like you know that for sure. Do you see that there's a middle ground? I.e. "I had a dream where it seemed that God was describing to me these new theorems"?
if by simple you mean scrambled eggs or sauteed onions, then sure, I multitask.
for heavier instruments like cast-iron or dutch ovens, I'd actually recommend preheating while chopping. just be mindful of the burner and adjust as needed
+1 on wikipedia's current events portal. One line summary per event, then a link to the article for more in-depth reading. It's a great way to condense information.
I had one of his classes. He really knows his stuff. Spoke fast, no filler, and had an answer prepared for any question related to programming language theory. I felt a little bad though, because a lot of the material went over everyone's head (it was a required course for CS majors).
As a 100 hour, thrice restarted student pilot it is the perfect mix of physical, mental, math and procedures. The actual flying of small aircraft is physical coordination and task saturation at times. Lots of procedures and optimizations. The navigation, especially the dying radio navigation (with paper charts, too) and flight calculators is lots of geography and math and tools.
Drumming is some of that but other than motorcycles I've not found anything else that comes close to flying. I've never tried sailing but maybe that too?
It's interesting they marked one of the claims as "likely fraudulent" but the guy at the spacebattles one hasn't. The video doesn't seem to be related at all to the 4 samples one, so I'm not sure why they think it's likely fraudulent.
Sometimes impossible in my case. Google Drive is always used in any collaborative project; so is Google Colab and Google Meet. And I still have the instinctual drive to reach for Google Translate/Maps, because it's so easy to access (physically and mentally).
