The comparisons with Russia and Ukraine feel really weird; wasn’t Armenia the country occupying Azerbaijani territory for about 30 years? Do we now expect Ukraine to not cut off Russia’s access to resources?

I wouldn’t call Canada that. The amount of spam calls I received there made my phone basically unusable for calls. Whereas in a developing country I had like 2-3 ad calls/wk and now I get none in EU.

since everyone is sharing code, why not? I feel this is a simpler way of sharing reasoning anyway. (in k; ! is iota, % is divide and +/ sums up a list) wa:!101 / world amplitudes given we picked red (i.e relative probability

> is like having a cookie wall where pressing accept all is a single click, instead to do reject all you have to uncheck 50 checkboxes one at a time. Which is an extremely clear violation of GDPR

DNT exists, and the cookie banners did not need to be regulated into existence if the websites did not strategically ignore the DNT header.

The last one is hilarious, just endless speculation on how the guy could have handled it better, the guy coming in with the account of how he handled thing pretty nicely, and then just crickets .

The name "Dynamic Programming" might seem out of place because it doesn't come from programming as a discipline. In this case, it actually refers to something like optimization, similar to linear programming. Dynamic programm

Godel's incompleteness theorem strikes again. At least, you can be sure that your models can be consistent.

Yes, some people read Clean Code and think every file should have less than 20 lines. I recently inherited a React project that has all single-use utility functions, graphql queries and component types extracted out to different files. Havi

I think Go creates a false sense of “getting things done” by allowing too little abstraction and increasing LOC. The writing/thinking ratio is great, but most of it is having to write 4 lines of repetitive code for every reduce that sh

Excel also allows for circular iteration if you allow it to. Helps with solving dynamic programming problems

Honestly, the array languages are special in a way that the shortest solutions are usually also the most generalized solutions. I’d be more afraid of javascript or Python codebases that were built to minimize loc.

That’s the kind of opportunity I’m looking for to introduce array languages to the codebase :^)

Too much misinformation, christ. After checking another thread, it appears the browser contains a softcore furry image, and the alleged CP is the anti-circumcision propaganda images the guy hosts on his public github.io page. Furry easter e

How about a "continental law" solution? Usually you can't give up rights you do not have yet, so you can't sign a binding arbitrage clause if you haven't been wronged yet. This is in addition to TOS'es being re

APL is one of the least complex languages I know (simplest being Lisp); there isn’t much syntax to learn and the language doesn’t really have implicit footguns. You just string together function applications and modify some of those functio

I'd say that the law of one price applies here. Doctors need to be making this much to compensate for living in debt their whole youth and early adulthood. Also having money is probably more enjoyable when you're younger.

The implementation seems reasonable, but how are the private keys shared between devices? It should pass through Apple some time since a phone can decrypt a laptop’s location. Or do they use bluetooth whenever near?

The main advantage for me is that Nix will not run a system-wide upgrade command (that takes quite a while to execute) by default while running a simple install command, causing breakages all over the place
