Unnamed Website is a personal blog at unnamed.website about programming and math. Since 2025, 11 different Hacker News readers have linked it 18 times, most often “RNG and Cosine in Nix”. It is still writing: the last post was on 2026-10-31, and you can follow it by feed.
Too few sampled comments (4) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
The linked posts cover implementing trigonometry in Nix, RNG and cosine in Nix, and floating-point numbers ("Floats Are Weird"), plus a travel post. The comments only link them and do not judge the writing.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 4 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

What Hacker News says?
That's actually not correct at all either. After the first pass makes the largest element the first element, every pass after that is a single iteration of (reverse) bubble sorting the beginning of the array, increasing the array that is sorted. So, the second pass doesn't end up with the largest or smallest of the list, just the smallest of the selected prefix. Once the iterator reaches beyond the length of the tes…
