What Is the Fourier Transform?

news.ycombinator.com Shalma Wegsman 2025-10-15 13:11:09

As we listen to a piece of music, our ears perform a calculation. The high-pitched flutter of the flute, the middle tones of the violin, and the low hum of the double bass fill the air with pressure waves of many different frequencies. When the combined sound wave descends through the ear canal and into the spiral-shaped cochlea, hairs of different lengths resonate to the different pitches, separating the messy signal into buckets of elemental sounds. It took mathematicians until the 19th centu

Google is changing how Extra Dim works on the Pixel 10, and it’s so much better

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR The new Pixel 10 series integrates the “Extra Dim” feature directly into the main brightness slider, making it easier to access. This removes the need for a separate toggle, as Extra Dim now automatically activates when the brightness slider is at its minimum. While the feature was tested on older Pixels, it is currently exclusive to the Pixel 10, though it may come to other devices later. Google’s new Pixel 10 series introduces some surprise display upgr

Last week was the first time I picked up Final Fantasy Tactics since finishing it back in 1998. One infamous boss battle scarred me so badly that I never went back -- and given its reputation among fans, I know I'm not alone.

It appears that it was US military communications doctrine to not send the exact same message twice using different encryption ("none" counting as one type of encryption), and the term of art for changing a message to avoid that was indeed "paraphrase". I managed to dig up a US Army document on Cryptology from roughly that era that appears to discuss paraphrasing.

Now, the writer has provided an update that makes it seem like the sequel is getting closer to actually happening.
