US healthcare is a joke. Let's make it funny. Out of Pocket is a weekly comedic deep-dive and analysis into the rabbithole that is our healthcare system. Existing healthcare research is dry and boring, and raises questions like: Why are 75% of all healthcare conversations defining what a “digital therapeutic” is?

In January, when McMillan announced his intention to open Suckerpunch, Portland’s first entirely zero-proof bar, the response was similarly overwhelming. Within days, hundreds of people signed up for the bar’s mailing list, and a preview event at Roseline Coffee in February sold out in advance.

it’s interesting to note how powerful it can be to have an actual writer crafting narrative strategy. Articulation is the first product

The general term for any diagonal going top-left to bottom-right direction is 𝑘-diagonal where 𝑘 is an offset form the main diagonal. 𝑘 = 1 is the superdiagonal, 𝑘 = 0 is the main diagonal, and ��� = −1 is the subdiagonal. According to Mathworld, the general term for the antidiagonals seems to be skew-diagonals.

Mathematicians have proved that copies of smaller graphs can always be used to perfectly cover larger ones.

for a love that would hurt in a way she could translate into forever.

acceding that temporary ugliness is an essential feature of doing mathematics; you can’t build cathedrals without putting up scaffolds. ​ secrets the erasers and wastebaskets of mathematicians could tell us, if only they could talk!

Reducers -- a tool for handling state changes -- help engineers manage complexity in their applications. But why is this such a great tool for managing this complexity? In this post, we'll figure out the underlying power of reducers by exploring monoids on functions and learn some more formal terms in the process. All code examples will be presented in OCaml, ReasonML, TypeScript, Haskell, and Swift.

Wynne said in an email. “Their imagination guides them and they see images first, not words. They see pictures before meaning.”

No explanations, just existence

Once upon a time, not long ago, the math world fell in love ... with a chalk. But not just any chalk! This was Hagoromo: a Japanese brand so smooth, so perfect that some wondered if it was made from the tears of angels. Pencils down, please, as we tell the tale of a writing implement so irreplaceable, professors stockpiled it.

Tune in and experience his deeper side live from Audio San Francisco The performance showcased the new direction of his sound, integrating analog technology into his deep progressive house. With minimal visual distractions, the focus lays directly on the music. As the site of one of his favorite past Mixmag events, Le Youth felt Audio would be the perfect place to exhibit this new experience. Inspired by artists like Eric Prydz, Lane 8, Joris Voorn, and Stephan Bodzin, his sound continues to develop. His latest track, ‘Obvious’ delivered a collaboration with Adam Rom that blended orchestral notes with dance-pop. The instrumental ‘Aquiver’ EP was released last year on Lane 8’s This Never Happened label which Le Youth has said is his “best work to date”.

This slow death is what allows for change: take control of it, encourage it. Murder yourself to make room for yourself.

Spend time prototyping your app on paper and really working on the human interaction before you write a line of code. Identify the audience and the story and story board your app just as someone might sketch out scenes in an animated feature.

A pause...and then I saw him pop up on my screen, eyes warm and crinkling, smiling widely. “Ahhhhh, there you are!” he beamed, clearly thrilled to see me. It made me happy. He was right: it didn’t feel like a proper reunion until we saw each others' faces. ​ My internet friendships look a lot like my IRL friendships, but they lack corporeality, are impossible for me to get my fingers around. When we hang out in person, our offline interactions look a lot like our online ones: talking, analyzing, processing, thinking out loud, asking questions, reflecting, words, words, words. Our brains are directly wired into one another. Our bodily expressions are confined to heart-eyes, wow, angery, cry, or whichever limited faces our messaging apps allow us to make. We blow blue bubbles at each other. We convey our emotions through slang and punctuation, express our love through memes. ​ Robin talks about making a messaging app for his family, with a grand total of four users, and the joy of building things just for yourself, much like a home cook as opposed to a professional chef.

It is one thing for a proof to be correct; quite another, for a proof to be comprehensible.

It colors the space blue because now it can.

and my heart— you can't plan on the heart, but the better part of it, my poetry, is open.
