Miscellaneous
Links to websites that I like, utilities that I use, and things that have no place elsewhere on the site. Some of these websites are in French.
Utilities & guides
Typography
A few typeface databases:
- Pousse ta fonte: a database of typefaces
- Latex font catalogue: a database of mathematical typefaces
- Luciole: a typeface designed for visually impaired people (there is also a maths version)
Other
A few other utilities:
- Tournesol: a collaborative video recommendation platform. I strongly recommend using it, and especially contributing to it: it is a very important collective effort against the toxic recommendation algorithms of online video platforms.
- Typst: a modern alternative to LaTeX, of which I am a big fan.
- Knuth Mathematical Writing: a guide to mathematical writing by Donald Knuth.
Data science
Utilities
- Data to viz: a website to learn data visualization
Libraries
- Clustering Benchmark: a tool to compare clustering algorithms
- GOB: a library to compare global optimization algorithms
Fun websites
- Mathcurve: a remarkable encyclopedia of mathematical shapes
- The-diagram: a website of diagrams
- Mathgen: a generator of mathematical papers that make no sense
Art
Section inspired by the one of Gaspard Abel.
Music
Music is my main passion outside of science: I have had the chance to play in several bands, mostly rock and the like. Here are a few websites and radios that I like.
- FIP: an eclectic radio, without ads
- Musique Approximative: a directory of music, often experimental
- Pardon my French: a directory of covers of popular songs, with their lyrics translated literally
- Radio Balise: not only music, but also very interesting shows
Also, for those interested: a list of artists and albums I love
Fanzines & comics
A few independent creators I like:
Everything else
