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 metadata is in the public domain (CC0), and anyone can contribute by adding sample relationships on MusicBrainz.

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.
Scientists claim to have discovered a ‘new color’ no one has seen before.
LOL!
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 used instead of Monte-Carlo? This would improve speed and precision, especially for many variables (high dimensions). Could the result be shown in a line plot instead of ASCII bar chart?
As a workaround you can type a trailing slash: example.internal/
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, especially if they've been recommended by customers (students).
Why so many posts about Firefox bugs getting fixed after N years? https://hn.algolia.com/?q=firefox+bug+years
Have you tried contacting support? https://www.oracle.com/virtualization/contact-form.html
The reason is surprising but perfectly valid once you remember the spec of map() and parseInt(). Love JS WTFs.

Reminded me of my favorite article. http://worrydream.com/ABriefRantOnTheFutureOfInteractionDesi...
I'm willing to pay extra to avoid touch screens in my cars, washing machines, door locks, and personal computers. I can't be the only one!
Very cool, although index funds like S&P 500 and DJI don't seem to work.
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 niche prices far exceed smart TVs, then people will begin selling modified smart TVs without cell chips for mutually fair prices.
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 more) would still be positive after subtracting the cost of modification.
Was going to say PDF but this is close enough :)
Bonus: Can this be a pure CSS library?
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 to use it too.
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.
Ownership goes to the author's heirs.
This might be the largest contributor relicensing project of any IP category: 2800 people and companies. 94% progress is impressive.
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 my query and then finally deciding that by N[Log[2]], I mean N[Log[2]]. And it's probably not because of that, but because their grid scheduler isn't optimized for sub-second latency.
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/input/?i=log%282%29
2. Every time I use it, a box saying
NEW: Use textbook math notation to enter your math. TRY IT
3. I'm a long-term Mathematica user, but typing literal Mathematica syntax usually never works, except for simple expressions.
4. Results are PNGs, and copy-pasting a numerical result takes a few unnecessary clicks. "Plain Text" > Copy.
This applies when interacting with children, or any family members. My folks send me a text just saying "I have some bad news." and I immediately assume that yet another relative has passed away. But it's usually some nonsense like "We had to reschedule our trip so we'll be back 2 days later than planned."
