As a student who's only been exposed to stats in undergrad (in the context of using multiple regression in Econometrics), where can I learn more about this? especially about choosing a spline basis and Taylor's theorem?
Re:Style Conformance for Blind Developers: Sonica on Thursday April 06, 2023 @08:43AM (#35467583)
Hi HN,

I'm Wiresong. I made Sonica (an extension that assists blind developers in satisfying line-based formatting requirements). While it's aimed at professional developers, it's proved useful for me as well, by letting me build better habits about splitting long lines of code. I've blogged about my process-if you have any questions, please let me know!
