Her logic seems reasonable but stating that the fibers "return to their original crinkled state" is missing the fact that the fiber go through the process of spinning to improve tensile strength (as well as the options of making an infinite yarn from finite fibers by twisting them together). regardless to return to original "crinckled state" they need to overcome those forces as well as the forces of the geometry of the knit(on a different scale).

BTW Rayon is also made from cellulose, cellulose II. While Cellulose I(natural) is metastable it can be converted by disolving in lye to a stable form (beta-gllocouse molecolue chain goes from being parallel to being anti parllel which increases the # of hydrogen bonds as well as helping create a more stable 3d structure) which again improve tensile strength and resist wrinkles on a different scale.

Here's another youtuber journey to fix the lactose intolerance by just eating lactose(powdered milk)("prebiotic") which had strains of a bacteria("probiotic" which feasts on the prebiotic) that breaks down lactose survives in the microbiome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h90rEkbx95w


Inspired by this post & TF comment I tried symbollic regression [0] Basically it uses genetic algorithm to find a formula that matches known input and output vectors with minimal loss I tried to force it to use pi constant but was unable I don't have much expreience with this library but I'm sure with more tweaks you'll get the right result

  from pysr import PySRRegressor

  def f(n):
      if n % 15 == 0:
          return 3
      elif n%5 == 0:
          return 2
      elif n%3 == 0:
          return 1
      return 0

  n = 500
  X = np.array(range(1,n)).reshape(-1,1)
  Y = np.array([f(n) for n in range(1,n)]).reshape(-1,1)
  model = PySRRegressor(
          maxsize=25,
          niterations=200,  # < Increase me for better results
          binary_operators=["+", "*"],
          unary_operators=["cos", "sin", "exp"],
          elementwise_loss="loss(prediction, target) = (prediction - target)^2",
)

  model.fit(X,Y)
Result I got is this:

((cos((x0 + x0) * 1.0471969) * 0.66784626) + ((cos(sin(x0 * 0.628323) * -4.0887628) + 0.06374673) * 1.1508249)) + 1.1086457

with compleixty 22 loss: 0.000015800686 The first term is close to 2/3 * cos(2pi*n/3) which is featured in the actual formula in the article. the constant doesn't compare to 11/15 though

Great work, I really liked Susam's setup in the article:

> Can we make the program more complicated? The words 'Fizz', 'Buzz' and

> 'FizzBuzz' repeat in a periodic manner throughout the sequence. What else is

> periodic?

and then I'm thinking ..

> Trigonometric functions!

is a good start, but there are so many places to go!


New Package Manager(apk) WIP

OpenWrt Upgrade Tool. retaining all of your currently installed packages and configuration

They are updating kernels on yearly basis. 6.12 WIP

web interface for mobile. I think there is an unoffical luci package and a native mobile app.

Notification system. WIP

uMatrix is archived and I think uBlockOrigin is now advised to use(which incorporate uMatrix by enabling advanced settings)

For those who want to try blocking more stuff you can enable hard mode and bind relax blocking mode keyboard shortcut

I'd recommend also enabling filter lists(I advice yokoffing/filterlists and your region/language)

https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Blocking-mode:-hard-m...


But uBlockOrigin UI is so much worse...

Besides, uMatrix works fine. It's that kind of program that doesn't need any updates.


I would really like an intuitive UI for people who don't want to do 'a project' to get their config tight.


But it is intuitive... I don't know what you mean.

You can't manage a whitelist with a single big red on/off button, if that's what you want.


You technically can, that is what community website rule Recipe are for.


I didn't knew community/public whitelists exist, nor any browser extension that uses whitelists and blocks all other connections by default, like uMatrix does. Do you have any examples?


I meant that uMatrix has that community rules recipe feature you can apply with few clicks.


Until uBO has an even remotely usable interface for this use case people (including myself) will continue to use uMaxtrix or forks of it instead.


Amen. I would (and did!) switch browsers to continue using uMatrix rather than go without (and uBO is not a replacement)


I reluctantly switched to only uBo because of uM bugs. But the UI/UX is just a huge step backwards to enable mobile usability.


uBO advanced settings still isn't as flexible as uMatrix was though, fwiw. (I did give in and switch in the end though.)


With uBO I can't block cookies by domain.


I think it acts more as an rss feed reader rather than building and hosting apps on it's own.


Try Discoverium


A question for strcat / other Graphene developers:

Can you clarify what can one expect from legacy extended support. Will old devices get any more updates? how long, how often, is it just security patches etc..

Thanks for you hard work!


Not a dev, but legacy extended support means that there are no more feature updates, i.e., no new Android versions or QPRs, only AOSP security backports. Obviously there aren't any firmware patches either, as these devices are unsupported by the manufacturer, who is responsible for delivering any changes to the firmware.

https://grapheneos.org/faq#device-support:~:text=The%20follo....


I would also advise people to use user.js such as arkenfox / betterfox.

Also available on mobile

https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/issues/240


These so-called "hardening scripts" cause a lot of issues and volunteers have to waste their time helping clueless users who copied them without understanding what they do.


I see you're quite active regarding FF. Nevertheless I'm not sure what you're talking about. I've installed Betterfox ESR on Windows, Linux and Android with no apparent issues.


Ublock origin author - Gorhill - 2022 response: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30415234

Ublock origin wiki referencing a method to block, unsure how effective it is(seems to be based on the first link): https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Static-filter-syntax#...

"*$1p,strict3p,script,header=via:1.1 google"

Perhaps some filter in your list already utilizing this but I'm unable to verify
