Apparently just a TI-84 Evo emulator(?) that you can run in a browser for $20/year: https://education.ti.com/en/products/calculators/graphing-ca...

I still use my TI-89 from high school, but I'm interested to find if there are any open hardware/firmware calculator projects with basic engineering tools and a CAS.

I can't speak for the person you're replying too, but I use -- for emdash for two reasons: I never remember how to type an actual emdash in linux/X11, and more importantly, I do mo…

I haven't tried it for anything myself yet. The paper provides several benchmarks. The emphasis during training was on multi-language support (over 1800 languages are represented i…

Apertus is the open source 8b and 70b LLM from swiss-ai. They've published both the base and the instruct sft models. Very cool that projects like this exist. https://apertvs.ai/pa…

I just came back to check if anyone else was discussing their entry, so thanks for posting your write up! I wrote mine by hand just testing it using the in-browser simulator. I ini…

> Thunderbird delivers RSS feed items the same way as email, so you can apply filters to mark them as "read" This is a good idea. I use Thunderbird only for a small number of feeds…

I guess it's not prefatory remarks or disclaimers that I find so grating, but the explicit "I'll explain" (or worse, faux conversational "May I explain?" "Let me explain") followed…

This is a nitpick, but since this essay is over 15 years old now I don't think the author will mind. This phrase always rankles me: > Let me explain what I mean. It turns out that …

This is my project/writeup. I think it is too simple for a Show HN, but if anyone actually tries it out and finds it useful I'd love to know! source code: https://github.com/cristo…
