Yeah? My reading of that book was that there was such an inhuman marriage/life destroying crunch getting NT out the door that nobody covered themselves in glory, much less showed themselves worthy of respect. And it explained to me, in

No, answering randomly is not okay. You will not be able to reproduce the bit string if there is a random answer any more than two source texts with a single bit changed between them will produce the same hash.

If you don't evenly divide the remaining population of the earlier questions, you'll need more than 33 questions.

The interesting nature of the problem is that you can't just 'eliminate swathes', your question must evenly divide the entire population.

Is using <h1> and <h2> tags syntax highlighting for text? Personally I program Clojure, so there's not a lot of syntax to highlight--well, more than in scheme, for example--but I couldn't imagine life without brace mat

I love any technological approach to getting me to the bar sooner. I've always wanted a 'timed SMS' app where you can queue up text messages and set a time to send them. That way you can be enjoying happy hour while sending o

If anyone else is wondering why formula evaluation is not working in Chrome, it is because jsfiddle is violating Chrome's security policy by serving up the javascript from fiddle.jshell.net (not jsfiddle.net). When this javascript code

Nice. This is exactly what I mean when I talk about ORMs. See how everything's nicer when its an API?

No. SQL is actually pretty third-rate at expressing data and relationships. My preferred way of expressing data and relationships is the programming language I am writing in . The problem with SQL is that it is not an API, it's a DSL.

It's OK, the silicon valley companies and other private sector institutions who have benefited so much from investment by the DoD and ARPA are ready to address any investment shortfall to the sciences, right? I mean, investing in a sta

While, from an outsider's perspective, Islam has had its share of splinters and factionalism in its past, Islam has not yet suffered its great upheaval, denial, disillusionment, search for meaning, angst and ultimately abandonment that

I use it exclusively for all my clojure work and have been for a while. It works well, and especially shines with its REPL integration, and when paired with Leiningen. Chris really has done a great job at keeping things minimal and elegant.

Lighten up. The submitter identified exactly the line and commit that enabled crashing all mongo deployments with a 16-byte post (I presume, from the report). Considering the circumstances, I congratulate the submitter on being so whimsical

Why can't you? It's not like you have to quit your current job to find a better one. My advice to anyone who doesn't like their job: please don't come to work in a shitty mood all the time, bitch and moan, and spread y

Instead of using a corpus, why not select tweets from a list of followers and re-tweet them? This would make your encoded messages more like a natural twitter stream. You could curate followers lists to be themed around a subject (tech, gar

It used to be for me, until I made two changes to my technique. 1. Give a confidence value: 'this can be completed in x hours with 50% confidence, or y hours with 85% confidence (where y > x)'. If you don't want to work in

Actually, it's just what I was looking for in this announcement from Google. We currently deploy our internal apps on phonegap, and I want the snappy and the APIs that Chrome offers over the stock webview.

It says a lot about the value of cross-platform and zero-deployment that developers put up with Javascript and HTML as an application development platform. It also says a lot about what is not valued: a consistent UI paradigm (Bootstrap n

While true, I was comparing macro APIs from a usability perspective and should have avoided the term 'abstract model'. My point was the mental model I refer to when using $lambda is simpler and easier to understand than my menta

The language I'm most interested in currently is kernel: mathematically underpinned by the vau calculus, with a smart creator and steward, and a better abstract model for macros than even Racket's stellar syntax-parse. Implementat
