discontinuous

The project requirements are discontinuous with a homeowner thermostat replacement in the same way that database cluster requirements are discontinuous with a Comcast residential gateway.

Which it does.) > the derivative is very bumpy and discontinuous Yeah, I dislike that too.

Its operators apply to electric voltages and currents, which may be discontinuous and certainly need not be analytic.

Which brings me to the other unspelled problem in some of his polynomials; the derivative is very bumpy and discontinuous, which spells out disaster in general math applications.

The waviness you're seeing here is due to the Gibbs' phenomenon, since you're approximating a discontinuous function.

You can create discontinuous functions by multiplying a normal continuous function by the unit step function.

Simply running the clock uniformly faster during the interval would have a discontinuous derivative.

Beating usain bolt's record is a discontinuous function of completion time because f(world_record + epsilon) = 0 while f(world_record - epsilon) = 1.

Well, the natural world is full of non-linear and/or discontinuous responses, so it's not crazy if there's some sort of threshold at work.

A lot of the factors interact in discontinuous or nonlinear fashion, making it very hard to just draw correlations and call it a day.

Don't draw a nice one, draw one that's jaggy, or even discontinuous.

How can you have a discontinuous subsystem within a larger continuous system?

Since that function is discontinuous, MMI represents a smooth version of it with a "randomized" decoder.

One way I have thought about this is that, rather informally, "the mapping from problems to solutions is highly discontinuous".

But this is not really a satisfying explanation because how could it be possible to generate these large, discontinuous motions we call "collapse" on the macroscale if it is impossible on the microscale?

[edit: I should bracket this with something about how when I am talking about OOP languages here, I was not thinking about Smalltalk] What I was getting at is that Object Oriented Programming Languages are typically presented in "popular culture" as something discrete and concrete: that C++ is as discontinuous with Scheme as walruses are with penguins.

Discontinuous spectrum lighting makes us uncomfortable.
