That's pedantic and also incorrect. The problem of whether an exact solution can be found efficiently can be put to rest. You might not choose to use this algorithm, but that's not really the point of algorithms research. You'

Mozilla do a lot of work besides Firefox. They have Thunderbird, Firefox OS, Rust, Servo, Bugzilla, etc etc. Brooks' estimates suggest that cost of development increases with the square of the length of the code. Likewise, a single dev

You're generally allowed to refuse service for any reason you want, provided it's not specifically outlawed (for example, if you run a hotel you can't refuse service on grounds of race).

If you do work related stuff on your computer, your work should be taking care of the computer. This is why most people get assigned a computer by their places of employment, and are not expected to use their own. The place of work has thei

Mozilla's a non-profit - the money it collects goes into supporting additional open-source products. At the moment, it does this on income of $300 million per year (mostly from their search provider). Of this money, $200 million goes o

The reason that no one has given yet is that you can monitor more carefully when you have a VPN. With a VPN, you can follow the bastion model; the VPN server runs only the VPN code and nothing else (with as much crap removed as possible), w

There is zero need for a general purpose List.last. It encourages programming using List.last, when in most cases that leads to crap performance (as it would run in O(n) time). It's a one line function to write, but it certainly has no

As a correction, it's wrong to describe OCaml's types as being polymorphic (I expected this to be polymorphic types in OCaml, which would have been far more interesting!) All of the types used by OCaml are monomorphic. The expr

You're at least over-optimistic (certainly more wrong than GP). How are you measuring the performance of the app, then? Depending on your software, it might be throughput, it might be latency, it might be failure-related, etc etc. The

Then your argument degenerates. What you've said isn't factually incorrect, but it's boring; you've picked a property that no one can possibly prove or disprove (but that is obviously not true) and used that as an argume

Parallel proving should be a big bonus. Nipkow found that on the Isabelle test set, using 3 theorem proves in parallel gave as good results in 5 seconds as the best among them gave in 120.
