This is awesome! Anyone discover any cool graphs to share? For example, the simplest one producing something interesting I've found so far is: t%x Which creates a growing jagged triangular graph when you press "play" f

Gotta love the "Customers also viewed these products" section on that page, for example: "Salt Block Grilling: 70 Recipes for Outdoor Cooking with Himalayan Salt Blocks"

Looks cool, thanks for sharing. Just a quick feedback note, under the "free tutorials" section, I scrolled passed the images thinking they were just gifs. Then got to the bottom of the page thinking, "Hmm, It really would hav

Extraordinary find! (While also heartbreaking to read that so many literary works have been lost.) For another list of lost books, check out: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_literary_work

This may be a dumb question, but is there really a "yup that conspiracy actually happened" book? Not literally a book with that title, but is there some resource that has a list of these?

Anyone catch the price? Or is this one of those "contact sales" products...

I wonder if players will be able to use this to prepare for opponents. For example, knowing where to hit and "seeing how they typically react" and then predicting where they'll most likely to return the ball. If so, this coul

Is it just me, or is it a little disingenuous to write the claim "...improve the accuracy of real time ETAs by up to 50% in places like Berlin, Jakarta, São Paulo, Sydney, Tokyo, and Washington D.C." When the actual numbers listed

Very cool resource. Have you thought about adding the scale of the author's following and/or social media presence? For example, this story's author has 21,000 followers on Twitter, and a successful blog. Another example is 2

I'm sure it doesn't hurt to have 35,000 followers :) I've noticed a trend that these success stories usually flow out of an already existing user base. Does anyone have any success stories from someone with no social media pr

Can this freaky A.I. also generate the corresponding unit tests? Or, for TDD, generate the unit tests first based on the function name and description. Then, if the dev updates any of those tests, or adds more tests, use that information

Any ideas as to a better system that can be designed and implemented under which these brilliant, but quiet, people have a higher probability of getting funding, becoming recognized and having an overall greater impact?

Looks great. Would be awesome if it had a hook to easily generate Anki flashcards from text selection.

Does anyone have an actual cost breakdown of every expense that goes into running a university? It would be great to see this for any major private college, and/or a public university. In most of these comment sections I see speculatio

Nice! I like how at first it just shows the headlines/articles. Then, if you want, you can toggle the "show bias" switch. Have you thought about an option to gamifying it a little bit by letting the user guess which direction

(Serious question) I'm curious to hear more about "ruthlessly optimizing" your emotional environment and relationships. That is not something heard everyday... Or if you'd prefer not to personally summarize, are there an

I can corroborate this. YouTube especially. Does anyone have any hard numbers to validate this? Or are we just random outliers?

LOL ohhh the irony... Why is this flagged? It's an honest question, 34 points in under an hour, 28 on-topic comments of people interested in and discussing the topic.

Would it help to replace the overhead lights with UV lights? Not necessarily for use when someone's in the seat, but also to blast in-between flights before the next batch comes on.

Did the earliest victims of Covid19 also show similar levels of clots? Or are we only seeing elevated levels recently? Could help to plot this over time as the lockdown extends. If there's a correlation, would help to stress the import
