Hank Green’s Focus Friend app is climbing the App Store charts — and it’s extremely cute

You must stay focused. You cannot open TikTok, or Instagram, or whatever little phone games you like to play. If you fail, you will make an anthropomorphic bean very sad, because its knitting project depends on your ability to stay focused. This is the premise of Focus Friend, a productivity app created by Honey B Games and Hank Green, the longtime online creator/entrepreneur/educator/sock salesman.

Who Invented Backpropagation?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-21 18:50:21

Efficient backpropagation (BP) is central to the ongoing Neural Network (NN) ReNNaissance and "Deep Learning." Who invented it? BP's modern version (also called the reverse mode of automatic differentiation) was first published in 1970 by Finnish master student Seppo Linnainmaa [BP1] [R7]. In 2020, we celebrated BP's half-century anniversary! A precursor of BP was published by Henry J. Kelley in 1960 [BPA]—in 2020, we celebrated its 60-year anniversary.

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-11-21 20:00:31

It takes a very special Netflix movie to get a theatrical release before hitting the streamer, and Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein is certainly that. Netflix just announced it’ll release the monster movie in select theaters on October 17 before debuting on the platform November 7. Now, there’s no word yet on just how “select” the “select theaters” will be. Is it two screens? Is it 2,000?

It looks like something straight out of a Ouija board horror movie, but frosty—researchers have figured out how to make ice move by itself. A video capturing the creepy dynamic features an ice disk melting on a metal surface etched with an asymmetrical herringbone pattern. The ice and its small puddle slowly start to move sideways before suddenly picking up speed and slingshotting across the metal plate.

In a bold, strategic move for the U.S., acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy announced plans on Aug. 5, 2025, to build a nuclear fission reactor for deployment on the lunar surface in 2030. Doing so would allow the United States to gain a foothold on the Moon by the time China plans to land the first taikonaut, what China calls its astronauts, there by 2030.

But an equally important, if surprising and less appreciated, forerunner is Skinner’s research with pigeons in the middle of the 20th century.
