Thank you. This is a good point. I definitely misread my parent post as arguing against all enforcement of safe standards, rather than just against enforcing them through civil liability.

Sure--I think I saw a very old version of this, so most of it is new to me--but it also refers to "Prime Number World and more", and at least Prime Number World doesn't seem to be on the map.

Great indication of the power of linear algebra! One little nitpick: not all transformations can be expressed with matrices, only the linear ones. Once you homogenize, you can get the affine ones (like linear, but allowing for translation

Feature request: `:vuv` causes vim to replace native operation by a broken, buggy half-implementation. Optional enhancement: LLM learns your favorite commands, and makes sure that they specifically are broken.

Ah, my apologies. I don't know my way around C++, and, by reading your comment too quickly, misread it to be saying that `all_of` behaved badly, rather than that its behavior could be better understood by looking elsewhere.

It is used, just with the caveat in mind that it may exist when the derivative doesn't. It is usually called the symmetric derivative ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_derivative ).

> However, you could also (probably) define the derivative as lim_{h->0} (f(c+h) - f(c-h))/2h, so without needing f(c) to be defined. But that's not standard. Although this gives the right answer whenever f is differentiable
