Maybe not surprising, but exciting! This kind of pessimistic take is what really surprises me. Crows can make mental templates, this is something we didn't know earlier, and is really neat, as far as I can tell.

Ahh, that would explain why the intersection of algebraic integers and Q is Z. I wasn’t convinced of that when I had the notion of algebraic numbers in place of algebraic integers. I like teaching this kind of stuff to my grade 9 and 10 adv

For some reason I pictured Mario 64 with the wing cap while thinking out your examples.

As a teacher who regularly rips off large expressions from textbooks and test generators with MathPix, this would allow me to also capture diagrams into my exercises.

Kitty is great. I started using it because I like cats. But I am learning more and more about how robust it is.

I’m a high school classroom teacher and I use the iPad Pro for note taking, and sometimes AR to visualize systems of linear equations in 3D using Geogebra. I use Desmos all the time for 2D stuff as well. All of that can be done on a non-pro

But how do you waste time in the morning if you’re not concocting some over complicated drink? I feel like my morning coffee is the one part of my day that I can control. You bet I’m gonna take my time and make it enjoyable.

Correct. My mistake.

Yeah, not to mention the ability to automate things. My latest automation: when the white noise machine is on for the baby, the doorbell volume is turned down.

How much of your $9.99 does a content creator actually receive? I much prefer to block ads, and donate or buy merch from the creators who I follow with intention. I reckon that the $20 or so that they receive directly vastly outweighs the a

Isn’t that referred to as the Dust Theory? I just finished Permutation City for the first time since it’s come up on HN a few times so I thought I’d give it a read. (Mild spoiler alert) I found that once everything was in the autoverse I st

I think what matters even more to most people is not even how easy it is to use, but who else is using it.

My least favorite thing about Google Maps is when they don’t display the street names in a place that makes sense. Sometimes I just want to look at the route and then drive there without instructions, but have to scroll halfway across the c

Absolutely. It's the only PDF editor that holds a candle to Acrobat Pro.

I am yet to meet a fellow Canadian who hasn’t complained about our health care system. It seems to be one of the main discussions around provincial elections.

I always assumed that the briefcase was for stuff my dad did. I don’t think he knew what it was either.

That’s how I’ve learned about authentication, and most other things too. I do worry, sometimes, that I’ve missed a big detail that opens my server to a vulnerability of some kind. That’s where education can help.

This looks really cool! I started getting into ebooks again after not using them for a few years. When I fired up my kindle it auto updated to a new version. Now it’s unable to run KOReader. If only I had changed my WiFi password in the pas

As far as I can tell they are just changing their API? Can someone tell me what makes that less open?

Interesting. The authors focused a lot on competing with market vs archival purposes. For me, and I reckon a lot of other people, I used libgen because I just want a PDF or epub that is not muddied with DRM or behind a university wall. Most

I don’t remember the recipe but one of them told me to sauté one thing, and put it in a bowl to cool. Then in another bowl soak something else. Then drain and combine. Instead I soaked one ingredient, while sautéing the other ingredient. Wh

An aunt signed me up for a few free meals through some promotion. I tried it with an open mind but I found the entire experience infuriating. Most of the meals came with poor quality produce (e.g. tiny unripe avocado — something I never wou

Acrobat Pro is pretty incredible. One of my favourite features is the following: on a scanned PDF after performing OCR you can edit the text and it will match the font. As in, it will create a new font based on the characters it found in OC
