I don't see what this improves over standard JSON. Just add a comma at the end of each line and wrap the whole Lines file in brackets, and you have a valid JSON file. You can petition spreadsheet makers to support this subset of JSON f

HTTP/1.1: 1.53s, 1.97s, 1.32s, 1.65s, 1.48s = average 1.59s HTTP/2: 1.09s, 0.87s, 1.19s, 0.92s, 1.30s = average 1.07s The slowest of five HTTP/2 results is still faster than the fastest HTTP/1.1 result, and on average it

I downloaded the source code on principle. It's good to know there are plenty of online copies.

This wasn't a thorough deletion. The shadowsocks-iOS project has been switched to the 'rm' branch, but the 'master' branch still contains all the source code: https://github.com/shadowsocks/shad

This already is a nice template. Plain text that responds well to zooming by the user; default colors that are easy to read and make links obvious; a few important images that are large enough to see, but don't take up half the scree

The highest one I see is a 94% tax on income over $200,000 in 1945. First of all, that was towards the end of a World War during which we developed an entirely new kind of bomb. Nothing our government is currently doing requires that level

Rational fiction does not depend on the entire world being rational, only the main characters. Choosing to make the main characters unusually rational is no worse a sin than making them the "prophesied heroes of destiny," or any o

In J, you can square a vector and get a vector of the squared entries. So "sum under square" really is doing "sqrt(sum(square(vector)))", and more generally "(a under b) x" does "b^-1(a(b(x)))".

An analogy that might help morale about the reverse split: "Instead of each getting eight pizza slices (opening price $0.25, strike price $1), you each get one pie (opening price $2, strike price $8)."

But then, to see what the allow-no-harm rule could accomplish in the face of a moral dilemma, he presented the A-robot with two H-robots wandering into danger simultaneously. Now how would it behave? ... In almost half of the trials, the A

If you #define END as "return(0);}" and put "int main(){" at the bottom of basic.hpp, you can have a complete BASIC program with #include "basic.hpp" at the top as the only indication that it's C++.

Try substituting a particular action like "hit." It becomes easier to imagine: > If everyone hits everyone who hits them, then everyone is hit by everyone whom they hit. Or: "If everyone hits back, then everyone gets hit b

How does the discovery that one culture's beliefs about medicine were less accurate than expected, make you think that a different culture's beliefs are more accurate? It's not like eastern and western medicine are binary o

That makes more sense; I didn't think Perl was as slow as he claimed. You can even get a similarly-structured program in C with macro abuse and C99's compound literals: #include <stdio.h> #define NUMARGS(...)

I expected that clicking on a easing function would use that function to transition to its detail page. Instead, it uses what looks like easeInOutQuint for all of them.

There is value in doing your legal duty, even if some people think your duty is to do a bad thing. "I was just doing my job" is not considered a sufficient defense of Nazi actions because their actions were so terrible that being

That screen looks too small for me to reliably input anything except bottom-left and bottom-right corner (1 bit per tap). In the long run it's probably easiest to learn a new input format. Some suggestions: • Draw a shape with your fin

Right. A simple example to show that induction does not work to infinity: 0 < 1 For any natural n, if n-1 < n, then n < n+1 (proof: add 1 to both sides of the given inequality) By induction, for all natural n, n &

Making something intelligent does not automatically give it desires. But as you said, there is every reason to expect that we would build AI to achieve our goals, which means making it (a) desire to achieve a goal we share and (b) intellige
