Unfortunately, a lot of calculators are going to truncate the results. However, if you manage to get a hold of one that doesn’t, solving 1/998001 will generate all the three digit numbers from 000 to 999.
hnet spreads small amounts of data across several non-traditional storage engines such as images, gists, pastebin, twitter streams, irc chat rooms, etc…
By design, it is not reliable, fast, or consistent.
An ideal use-case for hnet would be storing tuples of server IP addresses and ports.

Your startup is like Apple when Apple was a startup. When Apple was a startup they sold computers made of wood and nailed together in a garage. Apple wasn’t concerned with design when it was an early stage startup. Goal #1 was figuring out if people even gave a shit about compact personal computers. So in 1976 they built computers, out of a garage, from wood, and sold them to people.

MIC and the other MINE statistics are calculated from a matrix of scores generated from a given set of two-variable data. This matrix, called the characteristic matrix, is created by searching for grids that maximize the penalized mutual information of the distribution induced on each grid’s cells by the data. Different relationship types give rise to characteristic matrices with different properties. For instance, strong relationships yield characteristic matrices with high peaks, monotonic relationships yield symmetric characteristic matrices, and complex relationships yield characteristic matrices whose peaks are far from the origin.
new idea: a network attached to your phone’s alarm that resets all the clocks in your life to the timezone you just woke up in. it may be two p.s. here in brooklyn when i role out of bed, but i woke up right on time in auckland, new zealand.
for those who love freelancing from home this would be perfect for figuring out what timezone the companies you work for should be in. conversely, i can be a sleepy coder hermit in new zealand and work for companies all along the eastern seaboard and not worry about missing a meeting…
so much more about algorithms than i was even comfortable with.
