I would like to post on there but it's protected from people with low reputation... Maybe someone here appreciates my solution in C: #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char* argv[]){ int arr[1]; int a = 2; in

Before you've gotten a firm grasp on the subject, you might be convinced that your answer is right but it's not. Especially when the maths becomes more complicated. If nobody tells you it's wrong, you will incorporate more an

If I have to solve exercises and after that, I have no way to know whether or not I did the right thing, I don't learn anything at all. The point of exercises is to learn something new and uncover your misunderstanding of the subject.

"A constitution is a set of documents that defines how a country runs at its most basic level." I don't consider exact values in a currency the most basic level. This law is way too specific to make it into the constitution.

The vote doesn't make sense. If the Swiss people vote yes, the constitution will be updated with a law that the minimum wage per hour is 22 Swiss Francs. This is meaningless, considering that the constitution should be designed to hold

That's interesting. I once took a sociology class about the behaviour of panicking crowds and we covered exactly this phenomenon, that is, if you put a pillar in front of the emergency exit (without completely blocking it, of course),

Can anyone explain to me how displaying those sites on demand is not copyright infringement? I'm seriously curious, I don't know much about copyright laws.

Yeah. Especially since those brackets are completely unrelated to set theory. An instruction can appear twice in a list of instructions, but not in a set. Also sets are unordered. The reason for the curly bracket choice was that most keyboa

Yes, I'm aware of that, but at soon as you interact with the DOM, a canvas, etc, you reintroduce all the overhead that you wanted to circumvent with compilation. And JavaScript without DOM interaction is rarely useful in a browser. For

Pretty good work. Didn't like it at first but then ended up playing it for a few minutes, even though I wasn't in the mood for playing games. I noticed one thing though, I looked into the code (it's neat and tidy!) and the ga

I feel like it's not the vastness we can't comprehend, it's the relation between such "tiny" planets and such big distances that's hard to grasp. You can't zoom out or else you stop seeing the planets, you

No, they do not. Maybe an important person's password hash gets leaked and they want to extract the password to check other sites for reuse to get into other systems. Now you say reuse is dumb, and I agree, yet a lot of people do it be

What about space debris? If we build such a large stucture up to the geostationary orbit, won't it be exposed and how can it be protected? The top station can't dodge - or can it?

I respectfully disagree. This vote has nothing to do with "closing borders". What the Swiss people want is the reintroduction of quotas, so they're going back to how it has been for many decades. It worked perfectly well befo

Yes. Sometimes, laptops with crappy keyboards have issues, but a standard keyboard should work just fine if the right player uses CTRL, SHIFT, ENTER and the arrow keys (those are usually connected with an extra wire, increasing the possible
