Win, lose, or draw: trends in English football match results

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-07-25 16:23:55

Is the game getting more exciting? Football (soccer) fans like to see exciting matches. Draws are boring but wins or losses are interesting; fans want to see teams give their all on the pitch. Which begs the question, is the game getting more or less thrilling over time? One way to answer this question is to look at fraction of matches in a league that end in a draw. The most boring extreme is every game is a draw (draw fraction = 1). The most engaging extreme is that every game ends in a win/l

It can hold six divers and all their gear, but this morning, there are only six of us—no gear. Far from being divers, we are curiosity seekers from New York, Vancouver, London, and Montreal, all obsessed with the sinking of the Empress of Ireland, which claimed 1,014 lives in 1914. Until a few years ago, I had never heard of the Empress and its disastrous end. And that’s staggering, be

Lossless Float Image Compression

Back in 2021 I looked at OpenEXR lossless compression options (and I think my findings led a change of the default zip compression level, as well as change of the compression library from zlib to libdeflate. Yay blogging about things!). Then in 2023 I looked at losslessly compressing a bunch of floating point data, some of which might be image-shaped. Well, now a discussion somewhere else has nerd-sniped me to look into lossless compression of floating point images, and especially the ones that

Here's How to Turn Off Some Annoying iPhone Texting Features

Texting is one of the easiest ways to stay in touch with friends and family, and if you can't find the right words to use in a text, you can always use an emoji. But you might find some texting features on iPhone to be downright annoying. Some of the biggest culprits include autocorrect and predictive texting. Autocorrect can cut down on the number of typos when you're typing, and predictive texting can make it easy to write a full message in a few quick taps. But when I use these features, mor
