Can you cite figures for SC2 viewership? I sometimes watch it but from what I've heard from announcers on Twitch, SC2 viewership outside of Korea is basically dead. The last SC2 event was last month, Dreamhack Atlanta and it only manag

I don't agree it's a different problem, as OP pointed out, ZF with the axiom of infinity replaced by its negation is equal to first order Peano Arithmetic, sometimes referred to as the theory of hereditarily finite sets. Said theo

The original poster never claimed that it was; the only claim is that good programming languages have implementations in that language.

Because radix sort is not O(N). It's a common misconception and luckily most modern algorithms books do not make that mistake anymore, although it seems to have been common in the past. Radix sort is O(k * N) where k is the length of t

I mean that could satisfy the interviewer, but for me if I asked that question, I'd want an answer that protected against overflow and unfortunately the naive solution is prone to overflow.

Can you explain what you mean by "the logic of negation on a zero modulus result"? That sounds like a mouthful, does it just mean that the interviewer didn't know that "!(x % 2)" is the same as "x % 2 == 0&quot

You can't create the set of natural numbers even with the axiom of infinity either, at least not in any first order logic. No first order logic is sufficient to strictly define the set of all natural numbers. You can technically constr

I think you are deeply confused about this topic and should not be making judgements about other people. Instead of making an honest attempt to understand the difference between pass by value and pass by reference, you are trying to mince w

No sorry, you are incorrect and you can verify the correct answer on Wikipedia or any technical book on this subject. For example the Java Language Specification states in section 8.4.1 that Java is pass by value: https://docs.or

All those languages pass by value and it's kind of embarrassing that you mixed it up while criticizing someone else for not knowing it. One necessary (but insufficient) test you can use to determine if your language has call by referen

It absolutely applies to ticket scalping, as much as we may hate to admit it. You can do a Google search for economics of ticket scalping and the overwhelming consensus is that it benefits both buyers and sellers.

Maybe some of them do, but Google, Microsoft, Facebook and Amazon didn't care about my education, which is good because I don't have a degree.

You're alluding to using the Morris traversal algorithm which can traverse a binary tree in O(1) space, but Morris traversal is actually much much slower than using a stack, especially as is used by this algorithm. Doing a Morris trave

I mean this is a little pedantic. It's true he never said that only games are able to use his language as if it were some kind of law, but he did say that his language is being designed to address issues that video game developers face

Didn't miss your point at all, just informing you that on the whole it's superficial and implied from my post. There is a myriad of things that many of us posting on Hacker News are lucky for, and it's not necessary to point

I am very lucky and never said otherwise. I am lucky to have an amazing daughter, to live in an amazing country, an amazing wife, to have had all of the opportunities afforded to me. Not that you explicitly state it, but don't assume t

Yep absolutely, it's not for everyone. One question I'd ask of you is do you exercise regularly? The one thing I'd say that gave me the kind of energy to be "on" all the time is having a daily exercise/cardio r

Then you went on a very angry and incoherent rant for nothing. You seem to be angry because you don't understand what the word epidemic means. In the spirit of this article, epidemic means something specific; the rapid spread of a dise

Indoctrination is not the same as brainwashing though. If what you mean is indoctrination then use that term. Brainwashing is the idea that it's possible for a specific agent to forcefully gain significant control over someone's m

MKUltra would be an example in support of the claim that brainwashing is not real. No one is disputing that subjecting someone to drugs will permanently alter their beliefs, anyone who has come in contact with an alcoholic or a heavy drug a
