# about this
One key question I asked myself was: why should I bother trying to (re)explain something if there's probably much better explanations out there on the Internet from those with more expertise? (2023-05-16) and also a bajillion Richard Feynman simulacra lying in the inscrutable (though decreasingly so) matrices of open-source language models? I answer:
- Well, who's gonna stop me? (Though if I write something you think is an infohazard please do)
- Nobody comes out of the womb knowing multivariate calculus. (Remind me to fact check this a few years from now.) Growth mindset, everyone starts somewhere, etc.
- I occasionally have new ideas!
What's acai pie? I have no idea if it's a real thing -- sounds tasty -- but my name is A Cai, and it rhymes, and I figured acai $\pi$ would be too esoteric.
Sorry if links break -- this is more of a "[work with the garage door up](https://notes.andymatuschak.org/About_these_notes?stackedNotes=z21cgR9K3UcQ5a7yPsj2RUim3oM2TzdBByZu)" kind of experiment rather than a nice and polished project.
