I played very little Go a very long time ago, so I don't know this: could there be any legal positions that aren't reachable by any legal moves?

Let me preface by saying I like AppCode a lot more than XCode; given the choice I always work on AppCode. But, my complaints are: -Much slower startup time -All in all, it feels less responsive than XCode when my computer is struggling(I do

The lack of these refactorings is the main reason I bought AppCode. It comes with it's own set of problems, so I find myself using two IDEs a lot of the time. Does this plugin at least support Extract Method, or is it just Rename?

In Argentina they are called "mechanical stairways" (escalera mecánica)

I've never seen someone stopping the escalator, but I have seen the stairs standing still with astounding frequency. I thought it was poor maintenance, but it never occurred to me it was flow optimization.

If the target of medicine would be to maximize the amount of living humans, it's most effective method would be forced impregnation. If the target was to minimize the amount of deaths, then the optimal way to achieve it would be to ste

I think Computer Science is the branch of maths that studies computing. Things like Computability, Complexity Theory and Information Theory are clearly branches of Maths, and Math is a science. Now, most CS courses are not about this: they

I also have a 27" 2560x1440 monitor and while the content looks fine, the video gets really choppy if I don't configure my monitor to 1920x1080, as if it's struggling to resize the video. Does this not happen to you?

What surprises me is that www.ah.com is owned by some health center in Wisconsin. Now I want to know how they got it, and how much did Coca-Cola offer them for it, if anything.

Uruguay has a higher murder rate than Argentina [0]. This is also true if you compare the city of Buenos Aires with Montevideo[1], though exact numbers are harder to find and I don't have a reference handy. If Buenos Aires has more cri

Whether or not a direct proportional tax would be optimal depends on whether or not the benefit one gets from having more money decreases in a directly proportional way. I have no answers to this question (which should be answered in a stat

Well, money has diminishing returns. $100 dollars has a lot less effect in Rowling's life than in mine, and it can be a life-changing amount of money to those truly destitute. If you want to maximize the utility of those dolars, at lea

One reason for this are mandatory minimum sentences. And in that case, it is the politicians who made the sentencing, in a way.

No, the thing is the program, not the code. This is an important distinciton: code that isn't compiled, consumed is not a thing, except perhaps as a subject of study. Programmers' job is to create running programs, not code.

I did not say no IP is necessarily better than some IP, or even that it's better than the insane copyright system we have today (though personally I believe strongly that the latter is true). I'm just saying that this is a debate

I'll ignore that we are debating this(and both getting upvotes), and thus it's debatable. For most of human history if you, say, heard a poem someone else wrote you were absolutely free to copy it, reproduce it, even sell it! Even

Copies of the work of other are not the same as the work of others. That is one of the reasons why the argument is debatable.

In the public university of Buenos Aires, which I attended, there's not much incentive to actually finish your studies quickly other than getting your title. You can take as much as 4 years between finals without much of a problem. Bei

I know three people who do vote counting every year. They all agree that the voting went very smoothly, with less crowding than usual, and the counting took a third of the time it usually does. This is unrelated to the security issues, but

One issue with the XCTestExpectation note is that you can't wait for something if you don't know exactly how long it will take. Hard-coding in a timeout, essentially, can make your tests very brittle. Take, for instance, testing

I agree that the model we had is probably not a perfect fit for our era. But the one we have wasn't designed for this time either. It is a combination of historical accident and strong lobbying for private interests that got us to this

Most software engineers (employees) are paid for crafting their software, not for having crafted in the past. That's exactly what I advocate for. We absolutely should pay people for working! I'm saying that those who distribute sh
