“Rainbows Form Because Light of Different Colors Refracts Differently in a Drop of Water. To Understand a Rainbow in Detail, You Need to Consider All Possible Rays Entering the Drop, Many Raindrops at Once, and the Reflectivity for Various Angles at the Back of the Drop. The Current Figure Shows Only One Ray Entering the Raindrop and Visualizes the Path of the Red and Blue Rays. The Index of Refraction of the Red Ray Is Slightly Exaggerated (less Than One Percent) for Clarity. Observe That the Angle of Incidence Is Identical to the Angle With Which the Rays Finally Exit the Drop. Furthermore, the Red Internal Angles Are All Identical, Similar for the Blue Angles. This Figure Was Drawn for High School Students Because a Physics Textbook Figure Contained Several Errors and Ultimately Claimed the Red and Blue Light Exiting the Raindrop As Parallel Rays.”

Annotations sorted by machine learning into inferred 'tags'. This provides an alternative way to browse: instead of by date order, one can browse in topic order. The 'sorted' list has been automatically clustered into multiple sections & auto-labeled for easier browsing.

Beginning with the newest annotation, it uses the embedding of each annotation to attempt to create a list of nearest-neighbor annotations, creating a progression of topics. For more details, see the link.
