New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Which books teach mental models?
Ask HN: Which books teach mental models?
144 by wintercarver | 30 comments on Hacker News.
Read the piece by Mutaschak[1] yesterday and found myself agreeing with components of the piece but distinctly feeling that some well-crafted books take a more active role in conveying and teaching mental models than simply summarized facts (which can be done well, but is subject to being forgotten). The question, then, is what books effectively introduced a new mental model or perspective? Two recent examples from my own reading, non-fiction and fiction: Loonshots (Bahcall) - model & "rules" for structure of innovation in orgs is introduced, discussed from various perspectives, examples given, summarized in text, repeated. Overstory (Powers) - character stories all reinforce the perspective of an alternative relationship with trees and plants, the giant ecosystem and systems thinking. [1] http://bit.ly/2E19kyq

Ask HN: How to Self-Study Integrated Circuit Design?

Hey HN, I am a graduate student doing ML research, and lately I've been thinking a lot about designing learning systems from the hardware through the software layers. I have no experience with what is going at the processor levels, and I was wondering what prerequisite subjects or general curricula I should follow to learn and reason at these lower levels of abstraction. To be clear, I'm doing this to build intuitions about new computational systems and how different chips, from ASIC to neuromorphic, may be designed. Any resources or advice telling me I'm a fool is welcome!

New Show Hacker News story: Show HN: Tabtation – A Chrome Extension to Manage Your 'Too Many Tabs Syndrome'
Show HN: Tabtation – A Chrome Extension to Manage Your 'Too Many Tabs Syndrome'
9 by RishitKedia | 3 comments on Hacker News.
Hey there, HN! My name is Rishit, and this is my first post here on HN. Let me start off by asking you a question. How many tabs do you have open in Chrome right now? If you said less than five or ten: Congratulations, you’re not suffering from the dreaded 'Too Many Tabs Syndrome' (TMTS). Well, most probably! We all grow and start from zero. What?! Say that again. Did I hear you correctly? 25? 50? 100? Maybe even more? Or you’re just too lazy like me and said ‘too many’ since you can’t count them on your fingers? Woah! Now we’re talking! Yeah, yeah, I know, we’re in HN land after all, so I may be over-hyping this. But seriously though, you must have landed up in situations where the tab widths are so small, you can’t make sense of anything. So, what do you do? You start opening new windows. Wonderful. Few hours of work, and yup, you end up with the same thing again. Windows are nice. But a lot of them (with a lot of tabs) sucks even more. I just went through all of my five windows and all their tabs, and still can’t seem to find that one tab! Jeez. ️ So, I may have something that would be right up your alley, and help you manage your TMTS; Well, it certainly helps me with mine, so I’m stoked to find out if it does the same for y’all. I’ve just launched Tabtation on the Chrome Web Store! ( http://bit.ly/2E2qFqQ... ) I’m offering a 7-day free trial, so give it a try and do let me know what you think! I’d love to hear your questions, thoughts, or feedback, and work on them to improve Tabtation so that we can all be more productive in the coming months. ️ BTW, Tabtation is also on Product Hunt today ( http://bit.ly/2E2Z48N ). Yup, a lot of firsts for me today! Cheers!
