• Bad Therapy: why kids aren't growing up

  Probably not. I'm pretty sure the post was buried. I can't find "Bad Therapy" on any page on https://news.ycombinator.com/news. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Show HN: Hacker News Outliers

  My preferred alt frontend for HN is https://hckrnews.com I use it in "Top 20" mode. It helps me keep up with the bigger stories, but not lose a lot of time. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Hacker Newsy: a pretty Hacker News client

  Nice, but https://hckrnews.com/ is still the best one, by far. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Hacker Newsy: a pretty Hacker News client

• Is Google Getting Worse? A Longitudinal Investigation of SEO Spam in Search [pdf]

• A feature-rich front-end drag-and-drop component library

  Maybe I'm easy to impress, but I always stop and play around with the nested tree example when I come across Sortable. It works so flawlessly, and feels very tuned to mobile dnd. It even works to arrange (and reflow) inline spans in a paragraph! I have yet to come across this functionality in a text editor..

• Parquet-WASM: Rust-based WebAssembly bindings to read and write Parquet data

  Arrow JS is just ArrayBuffers underneath. You do want to amortize some operations to avoid unnecessary conversions. I.e. Arrow JS stores strings as UTF-8, but native JS strings are UTF-16 I believe. Arrow is especially powerful across the WASM <--> JS boundary! In fact, I wrote a library to interpret Arrow from Wasm memory into JS without any copies [0]. (Motivating blog post [1]) [0]:... - Source: Hacker News / 15 days ago

• A flat map with the least error possible: The Gott-Goldberg-Vanderbei projection
