I remember the disaster that was Angular 2. At least for developers. We haven't progressed much since then. Or we have, I really like VueJS.

As a filmmaker, Ridley Scott has the right to create whatever he believes will be more cinematic. However, historians also have the right to point out differences. This is not nit-picking; it is the communication of actual historical scienc

The Firefox thing is completely different. Firefox bought Pocket. It's not a third party product.

It's not just about size. Humans originated in Africa, so populations there have had more time to evolve and become more diverse. 200,000 years of genetic drift versus 20,000 years makes a big difference.

This is one of those programs that are so good and feature-rich that, even though I use Linux full time, I installed Wine to use the Windows version. No other Linux program has anywhere near half the features of HeidiSQL. Saying this is gre

I love this approach. It is both practical and constructive. Do you have examples of projects used?

What is the point of your last sentence? It reads like the Jehovah witnesses arguments.

I would argue that nothing is more destructive for academic and intellectual activities than what you propose. It immediately replaces the ideal result, which is a true assessment, with a feelings-based assessment, and it undermines academi

Why are you projecting so hard? Afraid of something? Instead of having a (useless in this context) knee-jerk reaction, you can read the links and find that the reported countries with the highest cheating in each link were France and UAE. U

You can only say that if you have no idea about cryptography. It is definitely true in the real world, but it needs the right context to be relevant. It is related to Kerckhoffs principle: "The design of a system should not require sec

This is related to Kerckhoffs principle: "The design of a system should not require secrecy, and compromise of the system should not inconvenience the correspondents" This means that all of the security must reside on the key and

I think the problem with Slashdot was that "Funny" was higher rated than "Interesting" or "Insightful", and it made the site a clown circus. I'm not against memes and jokes, I like them. But I also like so

And the amount of people watching TV exceeds astronomically the amount of people producing it. How is that even possible? You just gave another example of humans being bad at big numbers. It's not condescending. Why do you feel that wa

Who says it doesn't count? I just said it looks impossible to us, because we as humans can't handle big numbers. I am commenting on the phrasing of the argument, that's all. A machine of course doesn't care. It either ca

Have you ever used LaTeX? Word Perfect was like LaTeX and MS Word at the same time. You could edit text or you could edit the codes and there were no nasty surprises or any random reorganization of the document because you copy pasted somet

It's not AI's fault that this website can't save cookie preferences. I believe other factors are also involved, such as having the necessary skills for software development.

I did that and even with enormous amounts of free memory, Chrome and other Chromium browsers just die. They require overcommit just to open an empty window.

Mathematics is not "equations". Most of mathematics is not related with calculus either. For anything CRUD, you put the data into a database. The underlying database is relational, or a key->store. If it's relational, that

Coding is math in the sense that coding is a subset of math. Mathematics is a very extensive field, and covers a vast amount of subjects. For the same reason it can't be said that mathematics is equivalent to coding, as there are many

Performance matters (as long as most other things are the same). Python won over Ruby because of performance. Ruby is easily the slowest of all mainstream languages.
