I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The plates were fresh, and my wife was near
If anything I could say that this host was demur
But I thought “Nah forget it, hold your tongue good sir!” - Comment on Can also ask your mom 1 hour ago:

I like to frequent HackerNews for some of the discussions there, but… my god, the front page just turns me off. I do a quick glance, see if anything isn’t some not-so-subtly covert advert for a product, and just navigate away.
There are some alternative front pages (elijahpotter.dev/hnsansai) to make it bearable, but even then

Bad Guy: You know what Naruto, you’re right, I was wrong. Let me just unkill all those people I just killed.
Naruto: Cheers
Bad Guy: I cant really walk around in public anymore so I’m gonna just fade into aether and die.
Naruto: That would be great, thanks - Comment on Anon fears The Hand 2 days ago:
I imagine the hand has a getaway island where it lies on a sunny beach to get a tan, has a nice little patch of forest to act as a scratching post, and jerks off oil tankers causing occasional spillage

Also, guys - guys - we don’t have to do everything the greeks did, okay? Like, maybe we just drink the wine as is, and don’t bother watering it down?

Ohh! Calculating area, not volume under the curve – I see, thank you
- Comment on So are they like extinct or something? 2 weeks ago:
it’s used to calculate volumes of curved objects. basically you chop down the object into a lot of small parallelepipeds (mentally), and then calculate the volume of each of them small things and sum over them. Done.
For anyone not quite getting this (like me), to calculate the area under a curve in 2D we were taught to cut it into tiny thin rectangles and sum those up; intergration when those rectangles have a width tending to 0.
For 3D or higher curves (e.g. a pond ripple), a simple rectangle wont cut it as the length of the rectangle might only get the top of a wave, but not capture the crest of it tangential to it. So you create slopey rectangles to approximate that space, and bring the limit to zero to get the area (I think).
My only confusion now is, if I’m deforming a rectangle from one side to approximate the curve just above it, am I not also deforming the bottom of that rectangle in the same way, and creating a forgotten space just above the axis plane?
