A tensor is a container which can house data in N #dimensions. Often and erroneously used interchangeably with the matrix (which is specifically a 2-dimensional #tensor), tensors are generalizations of #matrices to N-dimensional space
Tensor notation is much like matrix notation
Tensor notation is much like matrix notation
Tensors are more than simply a data container, however. Aside from holding numeric #data, tensors also include descriptions of the valid linear #transformations between tensors. Examples - include the cross product and the dot product.

"It’s mediaschmerz—a sadness about the news cycle and news media, which is distinct from the experience of our everyday life. I’m not sure if I think this is good or bad. It simply is. Individual hope and national despair are not contradictions." @DKThomp greeneracresvaluenetwork.wordpress.com/2022/06/02/dai…

SOOOO many good papers giving knowledge about #Sustainability #Transformations in the last week+. Here are some highlights: We are talking POWER in governance and science today. 🧵 1/14
First up, @mmbuchs gives an excellent comparison of universal basic income and universal basic services according to their compatibility with planetary boundaries; needs satisfaction; fair distribution; & democratic governance. 2/14 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Milena concludes with “The sustainable welfare performance of both UBI and UBS is likely to be shaped by institutional contexts within which they operate”. Governance and decision-making processes are fundamental in transformations. 3/14
Can we build close, sustainable connections btw ‘humans’ & ‘nature’ when our basic concepts are based on their separation?

Systems theorist Donella Meadows suggests that challenging dominant concepts + paradigms is one of the most powerful systemic #leveragepoints towards sustainability.
This extends even - perhaps especially - to the concepts we use in sustainability research

The use of #systemsthinking in sustainability science to highlight the connections between humans and nature has been revolutionary + hugely useful.
But it still often requires us to identify separate 'human' and 'natural' entities before linking them back together

Positive #transformations are always great to see as an end product. The journey to a transformation however is almost always hidden. On the first day of #phd #gradschool in @umasschemengg, I introduced myself by saying....contd.

....I came to the US for the ‘#science’ and ‘#fitness’ industry that is known to be the best in the world. Everyone got a good laugh 😂 out of it. However, I wasn’t kidding at all 😈! I always had this vision of a scientist 👨🏾🔬who is also ripped to the core physically 💪🏾.
In that pursuit, I reached my best physique towards the end of year 2 of my #PhD when I also got #married 👩🏻🤝👨🏽 to @priyankaitkar9. I was still not quite there with the #science. Today, 4 years later, I am successfully @PhDone2020 and getting close to the best shape of my life!
Will the Sustainable Development Goals be hampered by sectoral approaches, or is radical transformation possible?
