I don't think that this problem is even computable, since the functions could be arbitrarily complex. If you restrict the nature of the functions e.g. "polynomials of degree at most d", then the answer depends on the restrict

TBH doing it all in LaTeX you end up down the same rabbit hole, looking for the One True Way to do this and that, at least for me. I do enjoy it a lot as it teaches me about typesetting internals, but it's not faster with one or the ot

That's maybe true, but giving governments the possibility to create movement profiles of people and correlate them is extremely dangerous. Maybe your current government is liberal enough to forego using the political aspect of the trac

Exactly. The author is active on the Code Golf Stack Exchange and wrote this programming language with code golding in mind, which is viewed as relaxing by some.

Isn't this a variant of the confirmation bias? People believe what they want to believe, and this case is no different.

Fun fact: The Kruskal Tree Theorem has been extended to undirected graphs (they form a quasi-wellordered set wrt the graph minor relationship), giving rise to an even faster growing sequence called the "Friedman's SSCG function&qu

Yes you're right - thanks for clarifying. I meant to say that not every integer in magnitude greater than 52 bit has an exact floating point representation in IEEE doubles.

A precise integer value is only guaranteed to be representable losslessly in a double if it is up to `64 - 1 (sign) - 11 (exponent) = 52` bits in magnitude. This should be fairly obvious with knowledge about how floating point numbers are r

Compared to other languages, I find Go's syntactic support for partial application and currying lacking, and every http.HandlerFunc I weep for the redundancy I create. I get that that is Go's design philosophy, but IMO a little sy

Not true in general, however IIRC it is the case if you want optimal (i.e. n log n) time complexity.

That is correct, in that case you need to encrypt either the files you want to be safe, or use full-disk encryption. I have no idea whether Purism will support selective file encryption or FDE out of the box, but it'd be pretty cool if

I'd go even a step further: Since they open-sourced all their work, maybe other vendors can pick up / fork where they left off and we may actually have more than one Linux phone in the future! Two years ago that seemed like wishfu

That was my motivation as well when I prepurchased the phone. Even though you might not get a $600 phone, Purism and the entire Linux community gain a lot of experience about the difficulties of designing hand-held hardware, applications an
