I built a site to browse which songs include samples of others. It's common in hip hop, electronic, pop, etc to reuse drum breaks, melodies, or vocal snippets of other tracks. SampleBrainz includes 220,000+ of these connections. All me

I want to specify heat, cool, or auto. I don't want to cool in the winter under any circumstances. I can simply open a window. Vise versa for the summer.

Cool! Some random requests to consider: Could the range x~y be uniform instead of 2 std dev normal (95.4%ile)? Sometimes the range of quantities is known. 95%ile is probably fine as a default though. Also, could a symbolic JS package be use

The cafeteria manager likely had no idea they were running out of forks. A simple email or phone call to the cafeteria department would have probably solved the problem, since managers are likely looking for ideas of things to buy, especial

Very cool, although index funds like S&P 500 and DJI don't seem to work. https://betagainst.fun/asset/_gspc_spy/ https://betagainst.fun/asset/_dji_dia/

Why did they have to add the super slow scroll lag? That ruined the whole site.

How so? I can buy a modified Thinkpad ( https://minifree.org/product/libre-t440p/ or http://www.cnmod.cn/x210/ ) because enough people demand it. If enough people demand dumb TVs but their nich

Wouldn't the free market simply provide modifications with the cell networking removed for an extra $50 or so? The "discount" you get from buying a smart TV verses a dumb TV (which is a niche product so it would cost hundreds

Agreed, it looks like a really nice product and I wish people would pay for quality software like this, but the market is super saturated, and even free, cross-platform chat platforms struggle to gain users since they require their friends

Isn't base64 encoding/decoding bound to memory bandwidth? If so, won't all 4/3 memory formats encode/decode at the same speed?

Here's a list of hundreds of funny examples. https://www.androidpolice.com/2021/09/29/gboard-emoji-kitche... Someone could probably make a huge table of all of them on one page.

I usually put this at the top, so it raises a syntax error if using an old version. f"Python 3.6+ is required"

If I didn't include that note, someone would say "Is is slow because you're on 56kbps dial-up?"

I don't think so. You'd need to run it in a terminal with something like from sympy.plotting import plot3d x,y=symbols('x y') plot3d(x*y, (x, -10,10), (y, -10,10))

I doubt the bad performance is due to evaluating expressions itself. If I type N[Log[2]] into Mathematica, it evaluates in less than a millisecond. It's probably because Wolfram Alpha is using natural language process to try to process

1. It's slow, even for simple microsecond computations like log(2). Takes about 5-20 seconds to load a page on my 1Gb fiber connection. Opening Python/SymPy Gamma is much faster for most things. https://gamma.sympy.org&
