• [Advanced mathematics higher degree inequalities and equations]

  Now, if you're doing it for real, the best and also most common method is simply, "use a computer". Many computer systems are really, really good at solving these equations and inequalities. You can also graph it and see on the graph every time it crosses zero. You can even do it for free without fancy software. There are a lot of web calculators that can do it, but one options is using wolframalpha.com. Source: 6 months ago

• Online Calculator for solving x in polynomial equation

  Do not go for a "one-use" calculator... Go for something that does it all if you know what you're doing. Go to wolframalpha.com. Source: 11 months ago

• Overview of the most useful probability distributions (using Logseq's Whiteboards)

  Some context: - Each "Card" you see is a reference to a block inside a big page called "Remarkable distributions". That page also contains more details (proofs, notable properties, ...) about each distribution. - The plots are generated using wolframalpha.com. I can just type "normal distribution" and I get a nice plot with different variations of the distribution's parameters. Source: 12 months ago

• Ask HN: Why are paywalled articles on HN mostly available on an archive link?

  (1) Technically, I think that site works by identifying itself as the Google webcrawler and seeing the full-text version that many sites would like to have indexed. (2) There's the question of why that site isn't taken down (or how it pays its bills) and my guess is this: In the 2000s it was an open secret that you could read the news on most sites like The New York Times with the username and password... - Source: Hacker News / 15 days ago

• Christmas Day menu ideas

  This pot roast with winter root vegetables (I use rutabaga instead of celery root, but any root veggies are perfect) No sides needed other than bread and/or maybe some noodles. If you want a green vegetable, track down a whole stalk of brussels sprouts and roast them. Recipe is paywalled on epicurious.com and you can no longer paste links from 12 ft ladder, but you can access yourself through it https://12ft.io/. Source: 5 months ago
