When writing code by hand I literally just draw mirrored squiggles. (On inspection, only the first stroke at the top reliably indicates direction.)

Not even parenthetical remarks with opening and closing parentheses or mdashes? I won't say it isn't so (that would be redundant), but this example makes my point again.

To me it looks wrong to omit a period in a famous short one-sentence statement. To stay within American style, I would rearrange the sentence to end with the quote, "I refute it thus."

Good illustration, but also brings into scope the [sadly disappearing?] ethical requirement of not misleading with abbreviated or out-of-context quotations.

Low skill myself at installing Linux, but I found installing a Guix to disk relatively straightforward. Managed to easily add available builds. Apparently-good support for virtual machines as well. http://guix.gnu.org/

People have made half-duplex, 2-way single-fiber links this way. With reverse-biased diodes, you are operating in photoconduction mode. If tightly-coupled to a fiber optic, and with a quantum efficiency of say, 10%, that would mean for ever

Just from the paper (OP), they do not show their measurement setup on the electronics (I and V) side. Simply measuring the I-V characteristics of a quantum-sensitive device is a far cry from showing that it will spontaneously deliver both I

Perhaps there will be a game called "Software Engineer" where you learn to add small features, make commits, initiate code reviews, do code reviews, and so on. But there will be no more jobs for software engineers. (Could actually

Read a bit, good idea. Will be followed by some copycat's Minus++, which will be montetized.

Can't speak for the poster, but I have seen the argument that if solar and wind can both be over-provisioned by a factor of 3, then storage will not be much of an issue. Fits with a "solar and wind will be too cheap to meter [the

This might be very naive, but I hope people developing Fuscia at Google bring in some ecological sense, and might find a way to naturally support phones and chromebooks well beyond a five-year point.

Relevant to the overall thread, perhaps: Fainting couches were a thing in Victorian times IIRC.

I have also seen it posed this way: Label that 2nd person as someone sitting on the other end of a sofa with you. If someone on the same sofa that way were constantly criticizing you, would you keep listening to them or paying them any noti

There are references around to "Inner Council Work", including a suggested exercise where you walk some path [in your mind] to a cabin, where at a table you sit with representations of you at different ages. In this exercise, you
