In here are the list of things I did for a particular hour or day. Also included here are the screenshots of games I played, or videos I watched or listened to, or just random things I stumbled upon. I'll occasionally write down what I'm thinking, or things I'm planning to do.
Argh, it's really quite difficult for me when it comes to mobile responsiveness. Things like making sure the text size is right, and all the words and spaces wrap properly. I should properly learn how to do this the right way.
For now, it works enough for me on the desktop. Not on the phone though, it's barely useable with a tiny screen.
Aha, I managed to almost copy the exact popup behaviour of 4chan. Well, almost, then I saw literal some edge case that needs fixing. Oh well, but for the most part, it's looking pretty good. I might actually use this custom HN frontend from now on.
I unproductively tried to imitate the post popup on hover feature on 4chan. The popup works fine, except the positioning is quite tricky to get it right.
Well, it's supposed to be covered by power rule and the product rule, but I'll check tomorrow. Anyways, I found stuffs on HN that could also fun to learn: geometric algebra.
This tutorial seems to be readable for me https://mattferraro.dev/posts/geometric-algebra only highschool algebra is required.
I'm getting too distracted again though, the last thing I want to surfacely jump from one subject to another without actually ever learning anything. I wonder at what point I will stop reading the calculus book I'm reading right now. It's actually almost a thousand pages long. I could probably stop right until integral calculus, then maybe come to it later in the future.
I'm still reading the book "calculus: an infinitesimal approach". I'm on page 60, and briefly went over the rules for deriving rational functions. Nothing surprising so far, I can still follow along without problem. I should probably frequently go back to these pages and commit these rules into memory.
My eye twitched a bit on the quotient rule though. Isn't division just multiplication with inverses (a/b = ab^-1)? So there shouldn't be a special rule for this, it's covered by the power rule, right?
I'll check just to be sure.
