I don't see a problem with changing a story to fit the current political climate better, assuming that the original version has been archived by someone somewhere. This merely seems to create new opportunities for doctoral theses in Fi

It's not an abuse of a system to use it in the way it was advertised. If it says unlimited, then it's unlimited. "All you can eat" means all the individual customer can eat (usually within a time frame). If you offer it

I have the same concern. Nudging is an umbrella term for a vast number of very different activities. For example, nudging is a term used for motivating more carefully designed road markings. I find it hard to believe that some of these newe

First of all, this is not true. Anybody can install a distro like Linux Mint or Ubuntu, it doesn't require any tech knowledge. Many Linux distros are perfectly fine for the average user. Second, requiring complicated BIOS changes const

No, this is not about Nazis. Putin simply always considered Ukraine to be part of Russia's legitimate "sphere of influence" and tried to steer it into becoming a pro-Russian vassal state. It's part of his incorrect views

My solution to this problem is to avoid libraries and projects that have one of those darkmode Web 3.0 scrolling pages as home that tell you in countless ways with lots of graphics why their project is so great. They usually aren't, an

I don't know, in the consumer market only Microsoft still sells an operating system but it's dirt cheap, you can get Windows licenses for a few bucks. The problem is perhaps rather that they don't sell operating systems and i

I've read his book The Knowledge years ago and it was an eye-opener. I wasn't aware how complex our agricultural and technical societies are and how much they depend on shipping and crude oil. Without oil and shipping, no chemical

This may not be what your looking for but I really like CASIO product manuals. They are concise, yet provide all the information needed. You can download them for free for any of their products from their website.

I'll leave for sure, but for other reasons than in CS. In CS people leave because they get better salaries and have better job prospects outside academia. In my area, people leave because of lack of career prospects, almost no tenure-t

I monetized my German science fiction novels by publishing them on Amazon, but so far have regretted it. They generally get great reviews and sure have their readers, but mostly just one of them (by far not the best) sells well continuously

Personally, I think the problem is that CommonLisp is just another programming language, whereas Lisp really shines when it provides a full-fledged programming environment. Nowadays, it would seem best to create such an environment on top o

The very idea of a search engine is to filter a few useful pages out hundreds of thousands of pages. It's impossible to do that without bias and it's bizarre to think Russian disinformation sites could provide useful information.

Nice try but the exact opposite is true. During the past 8 years, those ethnic Russians have been snatching other random ethnic Russians from the streets in the Donbas region to torture them for days to weeks. They're no more than a bu
