⚯ Michel de Cryptadamus ⚯<p>Ω🪬Ω<br>New release of <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/FediAlgo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FediAlgo</span></a> (customizable <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/algorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algorithm</span></a> for your <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a> timeline) has a couple of cool features:</p><p>1. Configuration presets (so you can easily put discussions or trending toots at the top of your <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/timeline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>timeline</span></a> without fiddling with the individual settings)</p><p>2. A "What's Trending" section that will show you the top trending hashtags, links, and posts scraped from 30 or so of the most popular Mastodon servers</p><p>All the old features like filtering for particular languages / hashtags / users or a minimum number of replies / boosts / etc. are still there.</p><p>For now you still need to use the command line to run it (it's easy tho). If there's interest I can deploy the demo publicly.</p><p>* Demo app: <a href="https://github.com/michelcrypt4d4mus/fedialgo_demo_app_foryoufeed" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/michelcrypt4d4mus/f</span><span class="invisible">edialgo_demo_app_foryoufeed</span></a><br>* Library: <a href="https://github.com/michelcrypt4d4mus/fedialgo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/michelcrypt4d4mus/f</span><span class="invisible">edialgo</span></a></p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/FediTools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FediTools</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/FediTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FediTips</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fediverse</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/activitypub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>activitypub</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/mastohelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastohelp</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Fedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fedi</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/foss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>foss</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/nodejs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nodejs</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>opensource</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/MastoAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/SocialWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SocialWeb</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Feed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Feed</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/timeline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>timeline</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/algorithmicFeed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algorithmicFeed</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/algorithmicTimeline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algorithmicTimeline</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/TL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TL</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/algorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algorithm</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/node" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>node</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/nodejs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nodejs</span></a></p>

grz0zrg<p>Wrote some more about extending the "HAKMEM 149 line algorithm" to a quad rasterizer to be able to draw billboards (sprites) up to 3D sprites, the HAKMEM approach (and forward mapping) lose a bit of interest when degrees of freedom (and projection) are added up though but it was fun to retrace the sprites history a bit. :blobcatcomfysmirk:</p><p><a href="https://www.onirom.fr/wiki/codegolf/main/#HAKMEM_149_quad_rasterizer_/_sprite_scaler_+_rotation" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">onirom.fr/wiki/codegolf/main/#</span><span class="invisible">HAKMEM_149_quad_rasterizer_/_sprite_scaler_+_rotation</span></a></p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/computergraphics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>computergraphics</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/softwarerendering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>softwarerendering</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/algorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algorithm</span></a></p>

Charo del Genio<p>New paper, just out.</p><p>Often, in real-world situations, one does not know the full structure of a network. However, at the same time, one can often observe some interactions that take place on it, and may be interested in knowing its full structure. For example, one may be detecting some partial criminal activity and may want to determine the whole organization. We consider higher-order networks, which are structures with many-body interactions, and specifically simplicial complexes, and show that one can reconstruct a whole network almost perfectly simply by observing the transient of the dynamics that takes place on it. In fact, we give 3 different algorithms to do it, with different complexities and accuracies, so you can choose which one suits you best.</p><p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>physics</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/mathematics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mathematics</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/networks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>networks</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/reconstruction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reconstruction</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/higherorder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>higherorder</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/simplicialcomplex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>simplicialcomplex</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/hypergraphs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hypergraphs</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/evolutionarygames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>evolutionarygames</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/transient" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>transient</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/dynamics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dynamics</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/algorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algorithm</span></a></p>
