Sharing my understanding: If one starts with Newton's 2nd law (F=ma) assumed, then one can derive kinetic energy to be 0.5mv^2, and this is what most of the answers are explicitly or tacitly doing. One could however start with Lagran

I recently tried KeePassXC. It is very good overall. I am not moving to it however because: 1. I have a side screen that is merely 360 pixels in height. KeePassXC does not work fine on it. KeePass2 does. 2. KeePass2 remembers the name

Mine was very similar. Given this ... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48603397 ... I now wonder if the actual corrected estimate from it is even higher at 110K+, which would seem further off.

Next step, include data from real patient care in the training data? The gap does not surprise me. I believe there is a difference between theory and practice when it comes medicine, law, corporate culture, etc.

The bottom two are based on Wolfram engine itself, so would fair the same as Mathematica. I do not know about the first one.

As such I don't. Nevertheless, it explains me what's going on better than the news articles. Also, I think we have oversold the concept of story-telling. Many news articles start with story telling and take a while before coming

Awesome! I just tried! Thanks! Will play around more.

Things may have been like that in the past does not by itself say that they need to continue like that. If there are opportunities to make progress or improve, why not. However, I thought more about this and I now agree to your position.

I came across this about Brave. Am not sure if the free version is also changing as a result of this move. Brave is charging $60 for a version of its browser that removes the features you probably never wanted https://www.techsp

I would love to see support for videos and removal of custom filler words (I say 'basically' and 'like' a lot and have so far failed to improve myself on this).

This is something I have been looking for. I agree with a lot of comments here saying that the "conversation that generates the code" is often not meaningful once the code is there. It is however important to me as development hi

I align as such. Then we soon see non-technical people start leading the same, pushing for some people to be recognized for this every sprint. Meaningless recognition starts coming in. The process fades out in just a couple weeks. The p

Great! I had turned "Show note labels on key" already, but had not known that the label at the top tells me the first key. :-) Thanks.

Lovely! I have been wishing to make an app like this for years. I have Sing-and-See, Ear Master, etc., but none seems to get the UX right (for me). Will play around with vibe-coding when there's opportunity. Thanks for adding the lic

Nice! My wish list for this: 1. Even the practice mode has a high bar as it expects me to get the whole thing right in the first shot. It should let me try some before jumping to tell me I got it wrong and automatically playing it again.

Very nice! My wish list for UX / features: For the Note Quiz, it was not immediately obvious to me what I need to do - i.e., pick from one of the four what were answer choices. Consider adding some instructions for newbies like me. I

This is a matter of perspectives here. Some of my friends are absolutely brilliant lawyers and they trump me in their reasoning abilities (while I am a typ. HN member, high-tech engineer). Yet, they would not know some tech basics. I s

Yes, there 'should' be a trail. And there's someone and a process to check that trail. And a process to find the issues, correctly so, and fix, and do all that on a timely basis, and reimburse the person for damages, ... PS

+1 to the idea. Developers should have a powerful machine to develop, but a minimal machine to run and test.

+1. I have been asked by someone in late 40s why uploading a video takes a lot longer than uploading a photo. They are not dumb people. They just do not know. The onus is on the engineers to design for them.

And then in the general case, the answer I guess would be a additive superposition of multiple functions including x.x' ... Hence, x.x' serves for purposes of explanation that the original author is aiming for.
