I have both. As far as I understand, the Roost is the original, and the Nexstand is recommended by Wirecutter because it is cheaper. I put them side by side, and shake the table to see which one is more sturdy. The original wins by far. It

Not totally disagreeing but note that it is expected to be printed, and modern readers often just look at a PDF which makes the weights too light. Also it has some aliasing problem (or may be named differently, but basically when you view t

Did you read the original article? It is a one-side argument basically saying there's no reason at all to not use a chest fridge and the parent comment just objectively gave a few. If one aren't capable of rational thinking and be

I'm mathematically trained so in the beginning I really like writing python program in pure functional paradigm. Until I was facing this issue. But, adopting OOP doesn't mean one have to give up on pure functional paradigm, there&

What you said is about the subjective aspect. But what I'm saying is that it can be mathematically balanced, but what they are doing doesn't seem to be true. My definition of mathematically balance would be for the palette (which

This seems interesting. But the claim about being "mathematically balanced" is skeptical to me. It seems it does better than Solarized which claimed a similar but weaker statement. The nasty details in color space is basically tha

Answer to this probably is just to use different kind of space such as non-breaking space. While LaTeX has good typography, it's really not the only game in town, and not the only tool that can achieve proper typesetting. I'd argu

This is not a bad proposal at all. (Except space after period, in markdown a single newline and a space is equivalent so having a single space then another newline character is weird, not invalid though.) Many people do recommend this (newl

by KolenCh 4y ago
I really hate this kind of "I don't care" logic floating among hackers or even just scientists. If I'm to argue, I'd start by pointing out the amount of space is not an integer. So arguing 1 or 2 is already wrong. K

A more efficient way to search possible fractions close to π is via continued fraction. Then you can have a sequence that has increasing larger denominator where all are approximately π. Each of the fraction there would be closest to π in t

By design it is never going to be able to replace a "laptop" running desktop OS. If the workplace is not designed to work with iPad, then I doubt anyone really can replace even a MacBook with iPad. Your "mini test" is in

I use the Pocket free tier. Then I use the web export function there to export it to xml. I wrote a script that would read that xml and pull (and if not available, fall back to archive.org) and cache (so only new bookmarks are downloaded) t

That will be another slow down happening at import stage. But even if ideally everything you import only does import with not much work, the import overhead mentioned above still exists. But frankly I’m not sure how significant it is on a t

The above mentioned Python’s import delay. This is a notorious behavior in high performance situation (including your cli startup time example). Essentially the import process is IO intensive. This comes up in massive parallel applications

This article should not be taken seriously, which has at least 2 fatal errors in its argument. First about the choice of delimiter. It argues for the use of $…$ and \[…\] instead of $…$ and $$…$$. They don’t even explain why, but cite an

Microsoft Sculpt is quite good. It is not mechanical, not truly split. But one that my hand can agree with. It is also the one I travel with because the mechanical split I have is too heavy.

They are talking about people in Laos, and the sponsored $10 subscription is considered to be a significant portion of their spending already. Why are you then comparing to rich people in China where VPN is commodity?

Have you read the book by its author, Python for Data Analysis Data Wrangling with Pandas, NumPy, and IPython By Wes McKinney · 2017? I think it is a bit mean to say about a package as popular as this to have “no design philosophy”. You sho

Not directly addressing this, but perhaps the point is not to create a model to address every known limitations. No models are perfect. Points are made based on a model, and a limitation/assumption is pointed out. You need to judge giv

But the kernel is wrong. I kind of buy this philosophically until I tried it. It just feels like you put the the wrong person in control, while all the time you really want to deal with another.
