These look great, thanks for sharing :)


You're welcome!

Hopefully someone can make recommendations for books (or other references) which address the next two aspects of math I'll need, conic sections and Bézier curves/surfaces.

I have found:

- _Practical Conic Sections_ by J.W. Downs

- https://pomax.github.io/bezierinfo/

- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVwxzDHniEw

and I'm reading through _METAFONT: The Program_ but if someone could provide a list of math texts which build from the Make: <foo> series (the coverage of conic sections in them was sparser than I was hoping for) I'd be glad of it. Links to helpful Github repositories would be welcome as well (for reviewing once I've digested the books).


Banning phones has no downsides. You're in the office to work, you don't need a phone or tablet for that.


Well, people do need to reach you and people mostly aren't chained to their desks in an office any longer so you do need a phone of some sort. No, you don't need a tablet in general and I mostly never used one in a professional capacity.


If I didn't have a kid, I wouldn't have a phone at work. It would probably be off in my locker or something.


Children vs. adults…

Although many of us adults, myself included, could definitely use a strict break from the screens.


It says choosing the most common word was just 1/5 (and their best LLM was 4/15)


Clicked every button. Maybe the most aesthetically pleasing website I've seen in a while


This website feels oddly relaxing, like if stuck in the 90s.


pre-90s even. (or should that be <pre> 90s?)
