Show HN: Fourier Transform Visualized via WebGL
I built this visualization while taking a signal processing course. The goal is to demonstrate the duality between transformations in the time and spectral domain.

For example shifting the signal along the time axis results in a linear phase twist in the spectral domain.

In most textbooks I came across the phase and magnitute are plotted separately and even in digital 3d plots often only one domain at a time is plotted.

Inspired by graphics like this [1] my idea was to plot both time and spectral domains at once onto the sides of a rotating cuboid. So each 90deg rotation of the cuboid represents one fourier transform (... -> s(t) -> S(f) -> s(-t) -> S(-f) -> ...).

> yes, they deployed it on mainnet Ethereum, they could also deploy it on non Proof of Work platforms that use the Ethereum Virtual Machine, their wish was to display it on the NFT marketplace Opensea, which currently reads data from Ethereum mainnet and Polygon mainnet so they have two choices.

Does that mean you already knew it was on mainnet when you replied before?

It's entirely true that a different article about a different topic could have used "on Ethereum" to mean something different. But if you already know this is on mainnet Ethereum, and someone asks about mainnet power usage, then talking about other ways to interpret "on Ethereum" is a total non-sequitur.

I'm not familiar with Bitwarden. After a bit of Wikipedia and web search research on them, I'm not sure why I'd trust 8Bit Solutions over Google for storage of my PII. Do they have the resources to keep it secure? What is their incentive structure to do so? What happens if they get bought? Should I be concerned about past errors such as "In March 2018, Bitwarden's web vault was criticized for embedding unconstrained third-party JavaScript from BootstrapCDN, Braintree, Google, and Stripe"?

It sounds like it'd add an additional layer of complexity to my situation without an obvious up-side over my existing solution.

> Investigators say they were able to tie the downloads to Sharp and his work-issued laptop because his Internet connection briefly failed on several occasions while he was downloading the Ubiquiti data. Those outages were enough to prevent Sharp’s Surfshark VPN connection from functioning properly — thus exposing his Internet address as the source of the downloads.

Not the first time I’ve read about a VPN unable to mask someone’s ip when they were on a wonky connection.

This is really interesting to hear. I am also red-green colorblind (Protanopia) but the difference between the normal and Protanopia images here is very noticeable to me. I can see that red is missing in the Protanopia version.

I definitely have trouble with many shades of some colors, especially if the colors are really small on the screen.

So many Protanopia colorblind filters in games and apps mess up the colors way too much for me, and look worse and less visible than the non-colorblind normal color settings. Definitely interesting to hear about other colorblind users' accessibility issues.

There are so many degrees of colorblindness that accessibility is difficult to cover for all of us. I hope Mozilla and other developers are accounting for common colorblindness and testing with real colorblind people.

This doesn't sound too good for VPN users
If the new variant picked up a piece of a common-cold coronavirus, does it means that:

- You are better protected against Omicron if you caught the "right" cold

- An Omicron infection (or maybe a vaccine) can protect against some common colds

- As a last resort, deliberately infecting people with HCoV-229E will help

- We should include all the endemic coronaviruses in our vaccines

I have a feeling that all the answers are "no", but I just enjoy the idea of having some common cold viruses take collateral damage.

> Investigators say they were able to [subvert the attacker’s VPN] because his Internet connection briefly failed on several occasions while he was downloading the Ubiquiti data. Those outages were enough to expose his real address.

Ahem, how convenient! Call me a paranoid Internet-forum dwelling cyber-loon, but that smells an awful lot like parallel construction.

When the authorities log the start and end times of every TCP session at both ends they don’t need a VPN leak to correlate traffic corresponding to “GET /secrets” from the client with a response from the server.

It feels like a disgruntled and sophisticated Ubiquiti employee is the last person who get caught out by a DNS leak while waiting for their VPN to come back up after a flap.

On the other hand, I guess if you’re crazy enough to behave this criminally, you can be forgiven at least for not thinking straight in terms of opsec.
Does it help your IBS or your Crohn's?
Presumably this is an OS-level thing, that it helpfully tries to fall back? If so, I suppose it could be mitigated either by a software control that prevents using the bare connection, or by running the VPN elsewhere, for example on your router.

(I see posts elsewhere in the thread now describing how to do this with iptables.)
> Not sure what you define as bootlicking

LinkedIn is full of posts that are put up by employees that are filled to the brim with either extreme compassion / extreme empathy / self congratulatory likes/comments on their bosses or higher ups in the company.

Its just so artificial.

Also, the point I was making was in response to the parent comment lamenting that opening up twitter for longer posts will lead to it becoming another Linkedin or Medium. My point was that the social structure and context of Twitter will never allow that to happen because (as I expanded) the social structure and context of LinkedIn and Medium are very different.

I am not really sure why you are questioning me.

I think there are probably a fair number of everyday people who enlist without thinking about such things as what they would do if they needed to expose a war crime to the media or how their due process protections would compare to civilian life.

Now, they would probably know and be okay with getting treated like dirt in boot camp, having restrictions about where to live, where they can go in their free time, etc. But probably not as much about the more philosophical institutional beliefs about authority, ethics, what to optimize for, etc.
On Linux, use network namespaces https://www.wireguard.com/netns/ . Create a separate VPN namespace and have wgN be the only non-loopback interface there, then run your application in that namespace. This also solves WebRTC-style leaks. Physical isolation is even better (e.g. using a spare Raspberry Pi).
Smoking is also ridiculously prevalent among schizophrenics, and nicotine seems to help with the negative symptoms.

It's an operating system issue. OS's are really difficult to give absolute invariants that you can trust. If network connectivity security is vital, then the only real solution is to setup your environment in a VPN or on a separate box that will lose the adapter routing info if it goes down.
> It certainly seems like it does when the first example for flattening is oversimplifying an already simple structure that doesn't really need flattening.

For the purposes of making an example of how the concept is applied, making a verbose example is counterproductive. This doesn't require explanation because developers don't make work for themselves they don't need to, in practice.

For a disease with highly temporally variable symptoms, you don’t even need a placebo effect. You could try some treatment and randomly get better. (Go read about almost any Crohn’s RCT for which the participants had active flares. The control group generally improves a decent amount over the course of the study.)
How could it not affect miner supply? The block reward directly affects how much equipment miners buy for the future, and if it fluctuates enough it can also affect how loaded they keep their existing equipment.
It is sad that most of the web is like this, but no, there's nothing illegal, immoral, or unacceptable about people offering to you (for free) shitty services which are a hassle (cost you resources) to use. You're free to not use them if you don't like them.

Your argument is like saying if a barbershop always has 2 hour wait times and has crappy music playing on an excessively loud radio, it's ok to retaliate against them.

If every barbershop is like this, that's sad and should be fixed, but it still doesn't make it ok to retaliate against them.

Storing of raw materials is not a huge problem, especially if they are distributed across the globe.

Also, manufacturing and distribution can happen at smaller geographical areas rather than country or continent wide areas. I think the overall impact of distributed manufacture and supply is lesser than concentrated systems.

Also, having a distributed system allows for greater innovation and investment into eco-friendly and sustainable processess. It is far easier to forget about the pollution happening halfway across the world, in a dictatorship that suppresses news than that happening in your backyard.
use tor. it's specifically designed to avoid traffic leaks (as long as you don't open an external application). I trust that far more than whatever "killswitch" VPN providers have, or properly implementing a home rolled solution with iptables/network namespaces/raspberry pis. the "bouncing your traffic across 3 servers to obfuscate tracking" is a nice bonus as well.

Well, the other reason stocks aren't scarce is that the company can print new ones. You'd expect this to reduce valuation and therefore have shareholders oppose it, but in practice that doesn't seem to happen lately.

I know we're both just being trite, but it is an interesting point that nearly all of our genetics are concerned with the "inside bits" of our proteins, organs, and so on. Whereas when we talk about a hypothetical extra-terrestrial being that has the basic external configuration of a human, that could well be a sulfur or graphite-based life form, or something else entirely.

Basically it could look like a smooth, slender, big-headed human but under the hood have much less in common with us than an earthworm does.
You don't need a fancy card for music production if you're not recording external audio. As long as it has decently good quality output and you're either using amplified speakers, a headphone amp, or it has a good enough internal amp, you can get away with internal audio.

You'd be surprised at how many music producers do all their work on a laptop and headphones these days. If you just want to mess around, any internal card will do for sure.

This applies to all DAW work on Linux regardless of what app you use. LMMS, Ardour, it's all the same. JACK runs peefectly fine on internal cards.
