> Or a chrome extension that takes HN comments and transforms them all to be kinder

I was about to start working on something like this. I would like to try browsing the internet for a day, where all comments that I read are rewritten after passing through a sentiment filter. If someone says something mean, I would pass the comment through an LLM with the prompt: "rewrite this comment as if you were a therapist, who was reframing the commenter's statement from the perspective that they are expressing personal pain, and are projecting it through their mean comment"

I find 19 times out of 20, that really mean comments come from a place of personal insecurity. So if someone says: "this chrome extension is a dumb idea, anti-free speech, blah blah blah" , I would read: "commentor wrote something mean. They might be upset about their own perceived insignificance in the world, and are projecting this pain through their comment <click here to reveal original text>"

For the longest time I thought the zeta curve was some kind of sophisticated equation, but it is astonishingly simple. The "magic" of the zeta zeros only happens because of the 1/2 term in the exponent of the equation below. Any change with this fraction, and the zeros do not converge.

You start with a line segment. You then draw another line segment that starts at the end of the previous line segment, and whose length is shorter than the previous segment. The length of any segment is (1/n)^(1/2) where n is the number of the segment. These segments approach a limit (think of Zeno's paradox).

                  _   <- segment 3
 segment 2 ->   /
               /    <- bend alpha between segments
               |
 segment 1  -> |
               |
               |

Finally, you bend each segment by an angle alpha. Technically this angle is in imaginary space, but the visual in Cartesian space just looks like a spiral, where each bend adds an angle, like a bull whip, so that the whole curve spirals back around (after creating other, mesmerizing sub-spirals). Amazingly, this curve always intersects zero (per Riemann Hypothesis). As I mentioned in my other comment, it's very useful to see this curve in 3D space.

A VR app called PianoVision has changed my musical life. People need to be open to breaking the boundaries and constraints of paper and rectangular screens, and go 3d and spatial with data display.

I had strep as a child and I developed tics and compulsive speech. Also some OCD. I'm almost 40 and I still have the compulsive speech. When I have awkward thoughts, I start cursing under my breath.

Another kid in my class has strep, and he has OCD so bad, that some days he can't leave the house.

It was James Bond himself that destroyed Arecibo, not his former 00 partner Alec Trevelyn.

I think you mean Onshape, not OnSpace

Onshape is an amazing tool. Can't recommend it enough
