Yes, and this is also a mistake, hence the <button> element.

Trying to shoehorn this onto the existing headings was a mistake. They should have introduced a new <h> or maybe <ha> (heading-automatic) element for this. Plus, support in the form of a CSS pseudoclass like :heading( n ), which

I will also try to give some explanation: The specification says that the syntax of expressions in this thing is `E ::= t | E E`. This is a bit confusing, because it might lead you to believe that all expressions just look like `t t t t t t

You always want to grab the Law. I know that there used to be some oversights where things where missing from the Law (like how to distinguish immediate effects from permanent effects on cards based on whether the box is paper or stone) but

In analysis, you also use 0**0 = 1 all the time. It's the only sensible convention for power series. It's really just a bit unfortunate that (x, y) -> x**y is not continuous at (0, 0).

I think they mean memorize. Most students simply lack the mathematical experience to internalize a definition correctly without simply memorizing it. They will forget an "only if", or accidentally swap two quantifiers around, or c

Yeah, it’s the same in Germany. (And to add insult to injury, people in places with renewable generation often pay higher grid fees due to the investments necessary to connect all the new plants.)

I have not once seen a formulae-as-images solution that I would consider acceptable, aesthetically. Common problems are: - It almost impossible to align the baseline of the formula to the baseline of the surrounding text. - Often, images ar

But the question here is not looking for a generator, because it would be okay if some group elements are only reached during the application of the sequence. (For the sequence to be a generator, all group elements need to be reached at the

Yes, but I definitely also see the opposite quite a bit: Somebody several layers down thought that something was an edge case, resolved it in a strange way, and now you have a chain of stuff above it dealing with the edge case because the b

The evaluation criteria don't need to be the same for your entire life. So if someone is taking an exam to decide whether they're fit to become a bridge engineer, ability should be the criterion. Little Johnny in school can still

You're right, I shouldn't have used cloning for the work part, though I rather meant closely replicating an artists style through the use of AI.

by Skeime 2y ago
I think there is a significant difference between an AI "cloning" you versus an AI cloning your work. (I'm not saying that the latter is not a problem in need of regulation, just that it is different enough to warrant sepa

The way I would do it: Get a board with a grid of 5x5 insets (like a Big Boggle board), a screen to hide it, 25 colored marbles (9 blue, 8 red, 1 black, 7 white), and a bag. Shake the marbles in the bag and empty it onto the board, shufflin

While I do agree that extensibility is vital for a general tool like this (and Markdown isn't), I also think that it is necessary to make certain concessions to standard elements (like paragraphs) in a text. I think TeX and Typst get t

It is inconceivable to me that in a competently-run real election, you would not transfer actual vote tallies at any point in the (internal) process. This is true for intermediate results just like it is true for final results. If percent

I think a tax or levy is somewhat reasonable, but then should go towards paying for sugar-induced costs (mostly healthcare, I'd assume).

No, not a typo. If you translated the two diagrams into classical notation, you’d get the two terms at the top of that page. They’re equal by naturality of alpha, but you need to concentrate on the formula a bit to see it. The great thing a

That’s what I wanted to say as well. This might look and even be serious, but it’s still someone’s hobby project as well. They can do whatever they want.

"Serious" and "hobbyist" are not antonyms.

In Python, everything is a reference, so you don't need special syntax to mark them. There just happen to be some types where you cannot change the referenced value in any way. These behave like value types in other languages. (If you

The distinction is needed, I think, unless you want to go the purely-functional route. I love that route, but just as many people will complain about purely functional languages being unintuitive. If you want mutable values in your langua

by Skeime 3y ago
Oh, that's a somewhat reasonable one. (Though I would expect that you actually want −(2 hours and 24 minutes) in many cases instead, thus needing to handle the negative case separately anyway.)

by Skeime 3y ago
Sure, but the inexactness of this modulus operation would not be any more unpredictable than all other kinds of float inexactness. Unless you're talking about the case where you don't know whether your operands are ints or floats.

This does something different. a // b tries to "fit" b into a as many times as possible. For example, 1.0 // 0.4 == 2.0 because 0.4 fits twice into 1.0 (with a remainder of 0.2). Though as the result should alw

There is math.floor for rounding towards negative infinity, which has the advantage of being crystal clear.

I mean "inexact results" is essentially float's life motto. That said, I don't really see why you would necessarily want float and integer division to behave the same. They're completely different types used for com
