Interesting thread on approximationsβ¦ Iβm considering a paper on a similar topic on the GNU scientific library (GSL) and its use in medical research. Many approximations in there that may not be necessary on modern hardware.
This is the "optimized" version of the inverse square root from the "Quake Game Engine". Just try to understand it...

@DrCalumMiller And how many autistic people woke up in hospital during covid to find a DNR had been attached to them just for being #ActuallyAutistic? I remember a lot of people tweeting about it at the time.

Any of my #ActuallyAutistic brethren use the #Brainway app? Seems it might be helpful but I wonder if my AuDHD would cause red lights in the app stats which would drag me down???

I survived OCD/anxiety/depression and growing up autistic without my needs being understood. But I also survived the mental health system - something that can be hard to explain. In September, 2,020 autistic people or people with learning disabilities were in mental health hospitals across England, with 200 under 18 (@Autism). Though a significant proportion of us on the CAMHS unit I was on were autistic, just not diagnosed at the time. There, we endured more trauma - restraint, seclusion, lack of freedom/privacy and traumatic incidents. Though in many ways I was fortunate (e.g. autistic people are 4-9 times more likely to die by suicide and the average admission is 5 years), I still struggle with some things I experienced. We need autistic peopleβs needs to be understood and supported. We need to avoid autistic people reaching such crisis that hospital, especially sectioning under the Mental Health Act, is considered required. We need professionals assessing us in crisis to understand neurodivergence so our distress isnβt misunderstood. /1
