This was thought as a purely visual experience, but of course adding another modality is tempting. I want do develop the project as new ideas appear, so who knows :)

I think I will write an article on the topic, but for now if you search for "quasicrystals" on HN you should get a lot of context :)

Thank you for your comment. I haven't thought about it. You are right. I will add a disclaimer and start with the animation paused.

Would be great to be able to reconstruct the whole story in the style of the images as a comic book or animation. Might be a nice job for the generative models of the future.

I thought we are talking about PHP8.5:)

Your version includes 4 variables. Pipes don't create those intermediate variables, so they are more memory efficient. Readability is mostly matter of habit. One reads easily what he/she is …

Good point. I would refer to another (similar) metric, which could be called "IDE-search-ability): it extends greppability, by adding some more conventions which work well with your (your company…

There is a huge difference between game theoretic optimal strategy and actual profitable strategy due to the human nature of the players. I imagine a professional poker player as someone who certainly…

I will take a look, thanks :)

Well, what came to my head pretty quickly when reading this was "there should be separate tables";) Thank you for the article, I didn't know about the statistic configuration in postgre…

lovely

But "mutation" includes adding genes (or extending a gene) as well, doesn't it?

I don't understand something: I was taught that mutations are random, not even predictable (the latter comes from Stuart A. Kauffman book that I've read recently). How did they construct the…

Yup, something like that came to my mind first: create a physical representation (like a map) of the graph you want to solve and use physics to determine the shortest path. Once you have it you could …

As a complete amateur I was wondering if it could be possible to use that property of light ("to always choose the most optimal route") to solve the traveling salesman problem (and the whole…

That's why I use to claim that for me everything is a priori natural. Additionally I disagree every time I hear that "culture is the opposite of nature" (not sure where it comes from, b…

It could be a great introduction to the metaverse. Imagine adding the interior spaces by making the doors and windows openable. Then allow for more and more interactions. A lot could be done by algori…

I think it's a good time to introduce a new button to the browser interface, as the gap between the original "take me back to the previous document" and some new concepts like the one p…

That's something that I've been thinking about yesterday, while writing my code in PHPStorm. I thought how much easier those modern tools make programmer life, how intuitive they are and how…

What make it difficult for me very often are bad examples. The set of standard examples for introducing concepts of class, object, inheritance etc (animals, geometric figures, cars) makes things harde…

When I work somewhere for a longer period of time I gradually work less and less, but it's not due to laziness, but due to splitting my time between learning and actual work. After few months I&#…

It doesn't forget - it's stated in the article (close to the end).

I've built a cheat detection system for chess few years ago. Our client paid for creating a chess portal to play chess for money (not an idea I'd put my money into - and it's been dead …

I'm not an expert in history, but I think that Poland should reappear in 1918, but it's missing few more years on the map.

I predict ML models predicting how will the Earth look like in the future:) loads of fun!

More and more I'm convinced that in the set of all possible search spaces, the most important is the pleasure-driven search space. But some well constructed knowledge skeleton let's one expl…

Maybe food has sth to do with decrease of testosterone, but I think it's rather cultural issue. 1. Lifestyle. Less sport, more cars etc. 2. Politics. Testosterone behaviors are less and less rewa…

All kinds of abandonware sites. I used to download games and record them on CDs in internet cafés, even before I had my first computer:)

I'm working on a Polish dictionary. There are already professional dictionaries online but I miss one feature: to be able to search in definitions. It's also scrabble oriented, so words come…
