creative-coder··on Mathematics for Programmers [pdf]
Just a suggestion: Why not add a Discord link too ?
creative-coder··on Free and Open-Source Mathematics Textbooks
Thanks for pointing out these Reddit pages. I wasn't aware of these
creative-coder··on Weekly Robotics #70
Thanks for sharing. What is the background of the author ? Not very clear from the /About page
creative-coder··on The Essential Guide to Electronics in Shenzhen (2016) [pdf]
Autodesk's actions are most probably a response to feeling the heat from stable, multi-faceted & open source Modelling, Animation and Sculpting tool, Blender which is completely free, receiving considerable attention from industry recently (after v2.8)
creative-coder··on Diagram.Codes
Wow, looks useful online extension of Graphviz.. Thanks for sharing :)
creative-coder··on V8 Release v8.0
Dear pattern lovers, you're witnessing a once-in-a-lifetime event — V8 v8
creative-coder··on Ask HN: How Can I Learn Music Theory?
Thanks a lot for pointing to these lectures ! Sometimes even freely available quality material doesn't serve its intended purpose due to lack of awareness among those who want/need it
creative-coder··on Eigenvectors from eigenvalues
Wow... your comment is infact more useful pearl of wisdom for getting the intuition of Eigen-values/vectors. Can you suggest some book/reference that best conveys this intuition ? Somehow, Gilbert Strang's Linear Algebra does put me to sleep :/
creative-coder··on Science’s pirate queen
That's not called stealing then, is it ? Have you no sense!...
creative-coder··on Show HN: A raycaster that renders to random dot stereogram (like Magic Eye)
Amazing! didn't think I could get so hooked up to a stereogram renderer.... I'd suggest adding other colorful background variations, apart from random dots, as well. Thanks for sharing !
creative-coder··on The Chinese fascination with numbers
The Hindu–Arabic numerals are monosyllabic in most Indian languages (e.g. Hindi, Bengali, etc.) as well
creative-coder··on Indian government to intercept, monitor, and decrypt citizens’ computers
Don't put India in the same basket as China

We have fundamental enforceable human rights, democratic government, independent judiciary, (way too much)state-independent media, functional Intellectual Property Rights(IPR) regime while China lacks all of these.

Also, India has not even begun to setup the kind of real-time mass surveillance, through millions of cameras, already in place (to be fair, US is comparable here) or the upcoming dystopian big data-driven, social network-like integrated citizen evaluation program, Social Credit System(SCS) in China.

So, its wildly inappropriate to mention India and China in the same vein here

creative-coder··on Bitwarden – Open Source Password Manager
share your sorrows regarding broken FF extension, most notably FT Deepdark. I haven't upgraded beyond FF 56 for same reason. (Sorry for deviating from main topic here)
creative-coder··on Ask HN: Is there a machine learning version of 'the algorithm design manual'?
There is another book written by the same author specifically aimed at Data Science problems, called 'The Data Science Design Manual'. Check it out at its dedicated website: www.data-manual.com
