Tired of feeling bad about what I’m paying for with my crossword subscription.

I was having unbidden pansharpening thoughts again, so I fixed typos and a pseudocode bug in my old 10,000 word gist on the topic: gist.github.com/celoyd/5bb5417

Proud to say that it’s the best non-academic introduction to the topic on the entire internet. Also, I admit, the worst, because it’s the only one. I don’t know why there aren’t more people interested in this.

@stephenjudkins I don’t think there’s time for an informed take yet. I think we non-experts just have to be hopeful and understand it might not pan out.

Got that feeling I got when I saw the video of the first trucks full of covid vaccine heading for the highway. thelancet.com/journals/ebiom/a

@natevw They rolled out a replacement for Euclidean distance and it’s about 0.661. Makes a lot of things easier.

Sitting here angrily remembering the time I guessed that the distance between two randomly chosen points in a cube might be 1/√2, looked it up, and learned that it’s (1/105) × (4 + 17√2 - 6√3 + 21×ln(1 + √2) + 42×ln(2 + √3) - 7π) ≈ 0.661 and this was only worked out in 1978.

@migurski Yeah. Try “Revolutions” from the beginning, and if it doesn’t take, try an episode from somewhere in the middle. And if that doesn’t take, never mind.
