(1/4) 🐇🕳️ How deep is the rabbit hole?

This morning I tried Qwen QwQ 32b preview.

To make a long story short, for an idea that has been going around in my head for a few days, I need a parametric (k,a) function y=f(x) that has f(1)=0, f(k)=0, 0<k<1 and no other zero in the range 0<x<1.

After several iterations PySR - SciPy optimize basinhopping, back and forth, I finally found the interpolant I was looking for. It's not exactly exact, but I can be satisfied for now. It will be used for the new method for optimal flattening of cubic Béziers curves that we are working on.

My latest article is about one of my favorite techniques in graphics - Müller's method of Polar Decomposition.

It also details some variations, including one which is ~2x faster to compute with more regular convergence.

It's always fun to introduce some new players to the world of #18xx. Not my favorite edition (the Avalon Hill one is much better IMHO) but new players always prefer this fancier graphics. #boardgames

Mescolando ingredienti a caso (semi di chia, olio di cocco, latte di mandorla, yogurt greco, burro di arachidi, burro, proteine in polvere gusto cacao, dolcificante), in proporzioni altrettanto a caso, ... sono usciti dei biscotti ketogenici niente male! Grazie anche alla nuova friggitrice ad aria.

Un altro massacro del terrorista al cremlino. Quanti ancora ne dobbiamo vedere prima di intervenire?
Odesa, civilians killed by a Russian ballistic missile strike lie on the city streets.

Tanto per chiarire: discuto con tutti e di tutto, ma rimanendo sui temi. Chi la butta in caciara, con la solita logica del tifo da squadre di calcio, io lo blocco. Quella roba rimanga su X.

1974-2024 Quest'anno ricorre il cinquantenario della pubblicazione di 1829, primo titolo della serie 18XX. I #18XX sono giochi da tavolo finanziari a tema ferroviario, senza dadi o carte da pescare: zero alea, come gli scacchi o il go, ma multiplayer.

I social media danno diritto di parola a legioni di imbecilli che prima parlavano solo al bar dopo un bicchiere di vino, senza danneggiare la collettività. Venivano subito messi a tacere, mentre ora hanno lo stesso diritto di parola di un Premio Nobel. È l’invasione degli imbecilli.
