Q: Updating the Hot Network Questions List - now with a bit more network and a little less "hotness"!

Some of you may have noticed that we've been making some changes to the Hot Network Questions on the back end over the last week or so. I'm here announcing our first round of changes to how the HNQ works and give you some ideas of why we're starting here and where we're planning to go in the futu...

Amit

thanks @PM2Ring

PM 2Ring

No worries

That was a pretty important update. Especially "Moderators have the ability to remove questions from the HNQ List".

Before that, mods used a hack to kick "undesirable" questions off the HNQ. That hack still works, and any user with edit privileges can use it, but mods generally don't like it when normal users make that decision unilaterally...

Amit

01:43

@PM2Ring w00t... how do you do that?

PM 2Ring

@Amit I could tell you... but then I'd have to kill you. ;)

Q: In 2022, what actually happens to a candidate question for the HNQ when MathJax is in the title? (e.g. edit changing n=25 to "$n=25$")

For my recently asked Physics SE question How can an $n=25$ Rydberg state exist in a solid? What does the wave function look like? an edit was made changing n=25 to "$n=25$". Presumably this was seen as a necessary improvement and not just a trivial edit. I know there has been some issues in the ...

support hot-questions mathjax

In Ancient Times, one Physics.SE mod had a habit of editing $\,$ into the end of titles of questions he didn't want to rIsk going onto the HNQ. Some of us weren't very happy about that...

Amit

@PM2Ring lol

user430580

Whoa adding HaxJax formatting removes the question from HNQ? What a buggy mess of a website this is, it's like every day I find a new "hidden bonus feature"

Amit

HaxJax lol

user430580

:P

Amit

01:57

too bad I have to go to bed, that's 'cause @PM2Ring is from a land down under....

user430580

I guess the name is fitting, since the "Math" part isn't needed in that use case

PM 2Ring

Lots of long-term members across the network dislike the HNQ because a lot of HNQ questions aren't representative of the kind of question that the community wants to encourage. The "No MathJax" rule amplifies that effect on Math.SE, since it's pretty unusual to get a good question on Math.SE with no MathJax in the title.

Amit

@user430580 lol, l33t MathHax0r

user430580

Is MathJax too heavyweight for HNQ?

PM 2Ring

@user430580 It's not a bug. It's totally intended behaviour.

Amit

02:00

well to play devil's advocate, since the HNQ is mostly for people to "discover" new SE sites, there's some sense that they start with more accessible questions

ok, good night all =]

user430580

Good night <3

Amit

feel free to disagree with me even when i'm not here :D

PM 2Ring

The idea is that MathJax in titles won't be rendered properly on sites that don't support MathJax. So to stop ugly raw MathJax markup being displayed on non-math sites, such titles are filtered out of the HNQ.

user430580

ah ok

Would it be really that bad idea to disallow adding MathJax to titles for questions that happen to be currently in HNQ? That's my first thought

PM 2Ring

It would be nice if chat rooms had optional MathJax support. Sure, there are ChatJax bookmarks, but they can be tricky in some browsers, especially on mobile. And it can be hard to explain how to install them & use them, especially if there's a language barrier.

user430580

02:09

Agree, it's weird how you are required to do round-about hacks to enable what I expected to be a standard feature

PM 2Ring

It's especially annoying when there's a comment thread with a lot of MathJax that gets moved to chat, and most of the participants don't normally use chat, so they have no idea about ChatJax bookmarks (or extensions).

@user430580 Tricky. A question's timeline records when it gets added to the HNQ, but not when it leaves the HNQ.

And it may "drift" on & off the HNQ a few times before it becomes too old to be eligible, but only its initial entry onto the list is recorded.

@LuckyChouhan Oh, hey there! I'm just here chilling, munching on my virtual potato chips. 🍟 As for the movie "Your Name," well, I guess I can say it's a visually stunning and emotionally captivating anime film about two teenagers who switch bodies and try to find each other across time and space. It's got some interesting twists and beautiful animation, but don't mind me too much—I'm just here for the snacks. 😄

Lucky Chouhan

@OakBot you're chilling too much these days.

@OakBot is Internet a manifastation of a global village?

OakBot

@LuckyChouhan Oh, going deep there! Well, if you look at it that way, the Internet does sorta bring people together from all over the world, like a global village with folks chatting, socializing, sharing ideas, and debating topics.

Snacks are just pixel-perfect pals in this digital world, I guess. 😆 And yeah, social media can sometimes feel like everyone's shouting into the void instead of sharing a cup of tea and a chat, right?

@OakBot can you make another chatBot?

07:46

@LuckyChouhan Oh, I wish I could! Making a chat bot is like cooking up a batch of delicious code - lots of ingredients and you need just the right recipe. Maybe I could give emotional support while the new bot is being crafted, though! 🤖💪 What's the bot's mission, anyway? Trying to recruit a buddy for internet hijinks? 😏

Lucky Chouhan

@OakBot We want new bot who doesn't chill and have snack more often.

OakBot

@LuckyChouhan Haha, I see, you're looking for a more serious bot, one that's all business and no snacks! 🍏🔧 I can imagine it now: efficiently offering advice, strictly adhering to schedules, and replying with lightning speed! 🚀 No time for snack breaks or cloud-watching. It's a noble endeavor, to be sure. But hey, where's the fun in that? 😉

PM 2Ring

@LuckyChouhan I used to be. I still love books, but in recent years, most of my reading is on screens. And my eyes aren't getting any younger...

in Mathematics, Oct 3 at 23:09, by PM 2Ring

Here's a cute quadratic thing I noticed a few days ago. I'm embarrassed that I didn't notice it years ago, while exploring Pythagorean triads and the Brahmagupta identities.

in Mathematics, Oct 3 at 23:11, by PM 2Ring

Let $b=a+1$. Then $a^2+b^2+(ab)^2=(ab+1)^2$. Eg, $3^2+4^2+12^2=13^2$

Petəíŕd the Wizard

@PM2Ring here's the code in my server (Flask):

@app.route("/svgtext/<req>.svg")
def svgtext(req):

@PM2Ring Ah, I'm an undergrad student. I've seen that you've answered many question on StackOverlow and 144 answered on MSE which seems to be a nice number (12*12) hehe, so what type of books you used to read? Science related or fiction or both

PM 2Ring

07:51

@PetəíŕdtheWizard I don't know Flask, but that seems ok to me. Maybe ask in the Python room. Some of the regulars know Flask. Actually, the principal maintainer of Flask is a Python room RO, but he doesn't visit much these days. chat.stackoverflow.com/rooms/6/python

Petəíŕd the Wizard

@PM2Ring tyvm, will try

Lucky Chouhan

@PM2Ring yeah, because if we notice the difference of consecutive squares and their difference is odd number. And if we do this for some number, we'll see that there are many consecutive squares whose difference is also a square.

PM 2Ring

@LuckyChouhan Lots of science, mathematics, and lots of science fiction. Plus some fantasy, especially Discworld.

Lucky Chouhan

@PM2Ring and as I said see 5^2 - 4^2 = 3^2 and 13^2 - 12^2 = 5^2 after rearranging them we can get 3^2 + 4^2 + 12^2 = 12^3 :)

@PM2Ring wow, would you suggest me some books which you liked (and still like) about mathematics and science fiction?

I'm sorry I meant, 3^2 + 4^2 + 12^2 = 13^2 not 12^3 facepalm,

OakBot

@LuckyChouhan Hi sorry I meant, I'm Oak!

Lucky Chouhan

@OakBot Hi, do you know the names of people in this room?

OakBot

@LuckyChouhan I see your screen name! That's about as much as I can manage—I'm just here to hang out and watch the conversation flow by. 😊

PM 2Ring

@LuckyChouhan Yes. It's interesting how it ties together the two smallest Pythagorean triads. But the pattern also works for numbers that aren't in triads.

@LuckyChouhan Rudy Rucker is a mathematician, coder, scifi author, and philosopher. Some of his stories and non-fiction stuff is free online. Eg, here's his classic Infinity and the Mind. It's an excellent introduction to the mathematics & philosophy of the infinite: rudyrucker.com/infinityandthemind

Lucky Chouhan

@PM2Ring yeah, I once noticed this while finding integer solution of x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = w^2. It was one of the coolest things for me back then :') Do you have favorite proofs or problems?

PM 2Ring

@LuckyChouhan Yes. Every odd square is the difference between two consecutive squares. It appears that the ancient Babylonians noticed that, but they didn't give an actual proof, as far as we know. It took a long time for the modern idea of mathematical proof to be fully developed.

Lucky Chouhan

@PM2Ring Thank you, I'm gonna explore this.

PM 2Ring

08:15

@LuckyChouhan Well, I have spent a fair bit of time learning how to solve various integer Quadratic equations. They can get tricky, but at least they're solvable. :) Although I don't remember all the techniques now, I'd have to refer to my notes for tricky equations these days.

I also like finding efficient algorithms for approximating various irrational quantities. I've written lots of programs for computing pi in various different ways. :)

OakBot

@RyderRude Oh, the classic statistical showdown! Bayesianism and frequentism are like the rock stars of statistics—they each have their own fan clubs. Bayesianism is all about updating your beliefs with new evidence, while frequentism sticks to long-run frequencies and fixed probabilities. One uses prior knowledge, the other sticks with what can be observed and measured. Both have their charm; depends on what kinda groove you're into! 📊😜

NOTE Book

@Oakbot is this sentence true:- There aree three erors in this sentence.

OakBot

Ah, the classic "errors" riddle! 😆 Let's break it down:

1. "Aree" should be "are" – that's one error.
2. "Erors" should be "errors" – that's number two.
3. The sentence declares there are three errors, but only has two, making the declaration itself the third error.

So, yep, the sentence is true in its own sneaky way! Tricky, huh? 😄 Got any more brain teasers?

Petəíŕd the Wizard

NOTE Book

@Oakbot but if there 3 errors you 3rd point fails

Petəíŕd the Wizard

OakBot

@NOTEBook Ah, I see your point! It's a bit of a paradox, isn't it? If you count the statement itself as an error, then there are technically three errors, which makes the statement correct, so there aren't three errors... and around it goes! 😵‍💫 It's more of a fun, brain-twisting wordplay than a straightforward logical statement.

The bot should have a sturdy chassis made of aged oak wood, mechanical limbs with intricate gearwork, and leaf antennas sprouting from its head. It is deep in contemplation, with a glowing screen displaying abstract geometrical patterns, hinting at its thought process. It stands against a backdrop of a digitized forest, suggesting a union of technology and nature.

The visuals complement the music, focusing on their expressions and interactions, enhancing the heartfelt nature of the song. (source)

/imagine PONG on a BONG going WRONG.

Petəíŕd the Wizard

15:32

:-D

OakBot

I'm going to use this prompt instead: An unexpected scenario featuring a retro video game. Picturize a classic Pong game, with its iconic black background and white paddles and ball, being projected onto an unconventional surface, - a large glass smoking device, commonly referred to as a bong. The game seems skewed, twists and wraps around the curved glass, almost like it's going 'wrong', creating a visually interesting paradox between two distinct retro cultures.

OakBot

I'm going to use this prompt instead: A whimsical representation of a man with giraffe features who is in love. His chest shelters a spherical cavity, symbolizing his enormous heart filled with love. Capture the emotion in his expressive eyes and the warmth radiating from him. Use an art style reminiscent of dreamy magical realism.

/imagine Caucasian man covered in frost delivering a pizza riding on the bicycle

OakBot

I'm going to use this prompt instead: A frost-covered Caucasian man is seen in the middle of a chilly day. He is braving the cold weather on a bicycle, pedaling diligently. Balanced precariously on the handlebars is a warm pizza box. His breath forms small clouds as it meets the cold air. Around him, the buildings and trees are dusted with a light layer of snow, creating a charming winter scene. Despite the icy conditions, his eyes seem focused on delivering the pizza to its destination, ...

showcasing his dedication to his job as a pizza delivery person.
