Bivectors and higher show up a lot in the math of 4D+ geometry, too. There's a fascinating SIGRAPH 2020 talk [0] (with a paper [1]) by the maker of 4D Toys [2] and Miegakure (a 4D game in the works, [3]) explaining 4D geometry collisio

A small native iOS feature that supports customized recognition (eg recognize an apartment buzzer or specific laundry machine chime). I don't have an iPhone to experiment with so I don't know what all is supported, yet I could see

EDIT: I was wrong and misunderstanding how these options interact, this doesn't solve the stated problem. Still good to have in your config but not as powerful as desired, sorry. Keeping comment contents mostly for posterity's s

An alternative tool that also improves git diff functionality is Delta: https://github.com/dandavison/delta (personally I think Difftastic's treesitter based approach is superior to Delta, yet I always appreciate

I just discovered that feature due to your mistake, so thank you! For similarly newly enlightened people it's a feature of MediaWiki (which Wikipedia runs on) and there are five (plus two) themes selectable with ?useskin= values: - tim

I figured it out--<Shift + color-letter> changes the background color! Shift+w = white background Shift+9 = dark gray background Shift+d = black background Also I found out the color letters aren't limited to "rgbyo", t

It's configurable too! Numbers set grey scale. Letters set colors (b=blue, r=red, y=yellow, etc). Mouse click sets random color. Spacebar or double-click resets canvas. I didn't discover this, comment stolen from previous discussi

The Wikipedia page on Malbolge was quite the horrific read, downright amazing to have a lisp written in it. Here's the program as talked about on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38850961 https://git
