There is a good chance that it will remain niche due to the paid and forced-login model. This is a good thing. I hope they will manage to position themselves well as an alternative search engine with clean, unmanipulated results; and be car

Since the Mandelbrot iteration happens on the complex plane, is there any recommended reading / research about its relation to scientific fields where the complex plane is applied, like mechanical oscillatory systems, quantum mechanics

This view on the Mandelbrot iteration seems much more interesting than the original set: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhabrot It is the probability distribution (i.e. the most frequent locations visited) over the t

Many destructive behaviours are rewarded in a system that is putting emphasis on the quantity and proposed impact of publications. Many scientific fields suffer from behaviours of individuals who are more interested in social status (or jus

Is there any alternative for having a gallery of text&photo posts without forced login and exploitative social media distractions? (except for self-hosting) When I looked for this 11 years ago, tumblr was the only platform ticking these

Not a good idea then. The librivox experience turned me away from professionally read audiobooks for far too long. Amateur readers are hit & miss. A lot of professional readers are actors or have a lot of experience. There is a reason p

Same problem here, also the A5 ones are actually quite heavy to carry around. I find the A6 Leuchtturm ones to be in most practical use right now, they fit into pants pockets (or for me, dress pockets) and they also come in bright yet simpl

I had a question that was difficult to search for about a framework recently. While Kagi didn’t fully get me to the solution in the end either (a human query did), the difference in results was interesting: Google retrieved content spam and

Coming up with the landmark experiment for this technology is no „small contribution“. Described in this Nature piece, where the first few paragraphs are about Malone. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02483-w

This is a rational, data-driven piece of writing, even by a software engineer, and in the past (I’ve been here for over ten years) it would have fit very well into this community. It is a call for more communication and understanding of di

You‘ve completely missed his point of stratification. What he meant is checking your personal risk of covid hospitalization and death based on age / preexisting conditions / BMI. The former equals your risk of blocking an ICU bed.

Mushroom foraging is a popular autumn activity in my local area. To prevent poisonings, cities have registered (usually volunteering) mushroom experts you can bring your harvest to; which they will check and determine for you.
