Steve Krenzel's personal blog at stevekrenzel.com covers startups, programming and data. Since 2009, 5 different Hacker News readers have linked it 10 times. The last post was in 2012, but the archive is still widely read.
Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link Steve Krenzel's article on Fibonacci numbers in the real world, which includes a graph of the sequence. The only comment notes the post omits Fibonacci-Lucas identities and links a related post.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
What Hacker News says?
Interestingly enough, I recently wrote a post explaining how to take a binary search and derive Newton's method from it: http://stevekrenzel.com/articles/newtons-law It's a fairly straight-forward transformation.
