1. In calculus, the slope of a function at a point. It is found by taking the limit of (f(x + h) - f(x)) / ((x + h) - x) where h (also seen as delta x) approaches 0.
Notations for a derivative include dy/dx and f'(x) (f prime of x)

The Editorial Process
Ben Collins: …I just want to walk through their daily process for writing headlines. They come in every day. Thereâs either one or two meetings depending on the day, and then they write â usually, itâs around 190 headlines. They are put into a Google form and completely anonymized. Then, from there, itâs trimmed down a little bit by one of the editors per day. Then, they go in the room, and they read them out loud, all of them, and if it gets a laugh or if itâs like thatâs something thatâs a character weâre going to bring back or they got to talk through it, they check it off, and then they whittle those down over and over and over again. And by the end of the meeting, thereâs usually â what, Danielle? â like 10 max, 5 to 10?
Danielle Strle: Yeah, tops.
BC: Around there. And then, those get written out, and if the copyâs not good or if itâs just a nib or something, that gets whittled down to three or four per day. And that comes from that contributor network that has legit famous people in it, or it comes from the people in the room. And then only after all that did they go back, and theyâre like, âThat guy wrote that thing.â Thatâs how meritocratic this is.

All right folks, it’s your favorite thing, favorite time.
It’s time to play around with the changes to audio capture specifically, an iPadOS 18.1 beta 2.
I don’t actually, I don’t know if this is as a beta 2.
Two things I noticed, the thing that they introduced in 16 I believe, which is called mic modes, where you could switch between standard wide spectrum and voice isolation.
I say you could switch.
This was in control center, it’s still in control center, they redesigned where it is, and the interface is very pretty, but they didn’t fucking fix it, and by fix that I just mean have it, I don’t know, it’s an API thing I guess.
I really just need to put on a list of things that I go down and make a mock-up fucking app so that I can see what the actual control is, the actual fucking backend code.
Not that I’m capable of this, or at least it doesn’t come easily, because um, in order to switch mic modes, and I don’t know if I’m recording in voice isolation or standard or wide spectrum right now, this is in voice memos, which is a native app which has transcription now, which is very cool, except even as I’m recording right now I don’t have access to that mic modes menu.
I had to start a live stream on Telegram.
Telegram, of course, is the one app that semi-reliably gives me access to the mic modes thing, but it still sticks as in you make a selection.
There was no selection at first.
Anyway, this is voice memos recording in lossless.
I don’t know if stereo voice memos is a new capability, but if you go to the app specific menu for voice memos in iPadOS 18, there was a toggle that was default off, just called stereo, and it’s on now.
Good morning.
All right, same device, same setting, but this is ferrite.
Ferrite being, well, the closest that we’ve ever come, really, to a professional audio capture app on this device.
Um, let’s see, do I have access to mic modes?
Nope, that’s okay.
Um, but uh, yeah, I, notably, one thing that ferrite recently added, and I know it’s silly, but uh, when I was in high school growing up around musicians and audio stuff, uh, FLAC files were basically a fucking meme because, um, you know, I explored all the drywall stuff in FLAC, which is, which is, if you know what I’m talking about, kind of funny.
Anyway, you can export it to FLAC now in ferrite.
And finally, recording in 96 kilohertz directly into Logic Pro for iPad.
Same microphone array, I think.
Um, yeah.
Oh, I guess it’d be very weird if I had access to mic modes here.
But I, so I listened back to, um, at least the voice memos recording, uh, and I’m almost positive that that was indeed in voice isolation.
Um, I guess the last subject would be, uh, I’m gonna see if I can, I’ll have a go at putting this together in fucking Logic Pro. Oh wait, actually, no, I’ll put it in, I’ll put it in ferrite and export it to WIP because WIP does 320 playback.
Uh, transcription.
I, um, think that on-device transcription is really cool, you know, native.
Uh, I would just like to mention that Cinder’s sword, his sword, who’s, wow, I actually know how to pronounce his name, but I’m not going to continue to fail.
Uh, his app, ICO, which is free, A-I-K-O, um, at least for my recordings so far, it’s just fucking better.
And you can import anything, video files.
Uh, I try to, the weirdest fucking file format, I think I did a WebM and it was fine and allows you to immediately copy, uh, and also export into all, uh, a bunch of different text formats and it’s free.
And it is also on-device and it’s bizarrely fast, but, uh, you know, I’ve got the newest chips.
Yeah.
Just buy a Shure SM57 and a Sema and a used, buy a used Shure SM57, uh, and a USB audio interface, a relatively good quality one.
Oh was just behind a Tesla Model X for a moment and just long enough to notice that they I mean it looks like it I don’t even know they put a SpaceX badge on the rear as in where the brand badge would be I don’t actually remember if I don’t think the word Tesla is there but uh I didn’t get a long enough look at it to tell but uh it was square but very homemade looking and certainly it completely unrelated to SpaceX’s actual branding and I just I don’t use the word lame very often I don’t know if that seems like it’s kind of for a reason but that’s just the lamest fucking thing that I’ve seen in a good while and it’s a shame that all that work I did tracking down the type typeface so that I could make a parody Tesla brand logo instead of saying Tesla says Musker literally no one has ever laughed at that I don’t know why this is a you guys problem that’s your problem man

As much as I genuinely enjoyed my free trial + then some paid time using Glass, I’m just not able/interested in image capture right now to continue paying $6.99 a month for it. I was pretty excited, then, to discover that micro.blog’s macOS app offers support for importing the .zip profile export files Glass creates, and to report that I have imported 18 images from my profile to this blog successfully.

Despite the beautiful myriad of text editors available for macOS, I’ve still found myself using Typora on my old machine. When I recently (read: ridiculously late) discovered that Brett Terpstra’s venerable Marked 2 can be schemed (sortof) with x-marked://, it immediately occurred to me that I could use a custom Typora Export preset to add “integration” between these two apps:
