The name changed when Slashdot lost significant mindshare among tech nerds.

It also said in an html comment,

  there are no secret messages in this html
  there are no tyops in this html

which at the time I took as some inside joke.

From context your meaning is clear, but I think you got that idiom inverted.

Are you me? I think you might be me.

'headcanon' is jargon within general fandom. The term refers to the application of imagination against the established canon of a body of fiction, to expand upon that body of work.

Example:

- Superman being from Krypton is canon.

- Superman not truly being the son of Jor-El, because his mom slept around, might be one fan's headcanon.

We're talking about a guy that chooses to be in front of a camera, weekly, for millions of views.

Someone who doesn't care about polluting our corpus is not going to care about your robots.txt

Catch 22: and if there is no air inside the box, then you are certain the cat is dead.

There might be, I don't know. But as you're already aware, we are culturally stuck with pi and so that's how it is taught.

Actually, no: that Tau-centric area formula you gave derives naturally from taking the integral. Your example actually fits the expectation you have from what you learned in Calculus I. You should _expect_ that 1/2 scaling to be there.

If it seems awkward to you, it's only because of a lifetime of seeing it done in terms of pi.

No, Tau is fundamental. Pi only exists because someone mistakenly thought the formula for circumference involved diameter, when in fact it involves radius. ("Quit factoring a 2 out of Tau!" I tell them.)

There are only so many TLAs...

My guess is: economies of scale, in 2024 (vs say, 1990)

That's cool. The news front-page screenshot & calendar use-cases appeal to me. (Although, it seems like I could just do the news FP thing myself, with "Any image URL", rather than your $3/mo service.)

Is it touch interactive? Like, can I tap on a cell in the calendar to see "... and 2 more" details?

Can I easily create my own replacement frame?

Can I hang it on the wall in a manner where I can rotate between portrait & landscape orientations, and have it react in an appropriate way for the running app?

Is there an SDK for app development?
