Thanks for pointing that out, here’s the archived version: https://archive.is/U12Hg


Don't get hung up on "patent". You can't patent an idea, you patent a specific implementation of an idea.

The boy experimented to find the optimal parameters (height, width, angles) for load bearing of that earlier invention.

So, the result of his work would warrant a new patent, of course with reference to all earlier patents of which his work is an improvement.


Don’t get hung up on “hung up”. Time goes by so slowly.


Don't.


.


You can even spend time and money to acquire a patent and it still doesn’t guarantee profit. It’s called the Miura-ori even though it was patented decades earlier. In this case, the patent acts as a record emphasizing that it’s all been done before.

Though I'd rather download a PDF or ePub.

I would say that the current format is a 'book' in content, but not a 'book' nor an 'e-book' in form, as you can't manipulate it as a single object. But I've seen a few other examples here on HN where people showed off a 'book' purely as a website.


As I shared in a comment above, the book is released under a Creative Commons license that does not authorize sharing derived works so only the original author can distribute you an alternative version

However I vibe-coded this tool for my personal use with our good friend Claude: https://onetake-ai.github.io/html-ebooks/

Which when pointed at a repository containing an "html book", like https://github.com/yan7109/yan7109.github.io/tree/main/ma-bo...

will give you an ePub with all the content in one place.


What are we seeing here? The hijacking of a subdomain?



Feedback about a technical aspect of your blog, not about the contents of the article: unfortunately the HTML title of the page is not the title of the article, but the title of your website. As a consequence, when I print your blogpost to a PDF file to read it offline at a later time, the filename of the saved PDF has no clues whatsoever about what the article is about.


Thanks! It's a good feedback! Will fix


It's probably a pirate station, deliberately broadcasting on the same frequency. Contrary to FM modulation, with AM modulation two superimposed signals one the same frequency are demodulated as if they came from one transmission.


Swan Lake was played on UVB-76 in 2010 I believe and on other occasions previously. There have been other strange sound/musics broadcasted from this location so I don't think the pirate station makes sense.


Yes we can!



I like minimalistic tools and designs! But I don't like minimalistic documentation.

You included an example with .md files and a template, but I would like to see what Kew generated from it, without having to run the program.

How exactly does templating work in Kew? Does it fully support the 'rc' templating from Werc, or is it purely Lowdown-based with optional HTML wrappers?

Are the config options as shown in config.go the complete set, or does Kew support more config options like Werc does?
