Does this remain true if the waste producers were forced to factor in the “true” storage cost of the waste?

Could you not enforce that functions tagged can only call other functions with the tag and must not call panic? This would not protect against stack overflow or similar environmental panics.

OM System (the camera division of Olympus sold off as a separate company) recently announced their OM-1 camera which together with a some of their expensive lenses got an IP53 rating. Which is still a less than many smartphones.

JAX recompiles functions every time you call them with an array of a new shape, i.e. if called with an array of shape (7,10) and then one with shape (17, 12) the function is compiled twice. This is generally fine for deep learning and some

Yes but some people ask questions rather than try to look for answers in the documentation, since it is perceived lower effort than looking in the documentation themselves. It is quicker to ask a question than look through the documentation

I understood the parent post to suggest dual licensing where the commercial license also gives you paid support. I.e. if you expect support pay up by buying a commercial license. Though I see no reason to conflate the two things. I would su

I think MegaHAL is (mostly?) just a markov model, and I think that was not exactly new when I looked at it around 2002. As I recall it was easier to distinguish from a human than Eliza, since it had a greater probability of spouting nonsens

This has also been my experience, but to me the detriment of verboseness is not only a matter of writing code, it also means there is a lot of noise when I try to read the code. I guess it might just be a personal preference whether we pref

Thanks, I am sorry for taking your time.

No it was a comment trying to indicate that I found your question odd, and ask why you think your question is useful? Do you believe there is a single notion of brand new that can be applied across all categories? Is the age for brand new m

It seems weird to me to gauge someone’s understanding of “brand new” for cryptography software by measuring against primitives and constructions. To me at least, those are not the same thing. Even if a piece of software contains cryptogra

Thank you! I was unfamiliar with both age and Cwtch. From what I can tell, Cwtch is also a linear messaging system. Are you aware of any software offering secure non-linear (hopefully threaded) messaging, i.e. a secure e-mail replacement? I

Note that both the FSF, OSI and DoD (in your own link) agree that in practice the Open Source Definition and Free Software Definition are equivalent. So if you believe your license is open source but not free software, then you are very pro

Let us first agree on what we are arguing. You proposed that: > For most software projects, there should be a way to buy a commercial support license. > For many, such a license should be required for use in any org which is over X em

But the GP wrote: “For many, such a license should be required for use in any org which is over X employees” emphasis mine. If this requirement comes from a clause in the license then it violates the open source definition https:/&#

I do not know Java very well, but from the article I got the impression that in Java you could use List<?> as a reference in non-generic code to a List of arbitrary type. I.e. you could assign: List<?> variable = new ArrayList&l

If you have a need for lightweight cryptography today, why wait for the NIST competition? Ascon is already the primary recommendation in the lightweight category from the CAESAR competition, and now also a finalist in the NIST competition.

But it should be easy based on this example to include correct HTML tags in the script which the regular expression will emit. Or if you want to recognise HTML tags in the script, you can easily obfuscate construction of in the script using

Does the proposed regular expression really handle embedded script content correctly? From my limited understanding of HTML, pretty much only </script> counts as closing the script contents and everything else is treated as part

They are explaining to you that in the post you replied to, the part prefixed “>” was a quote from the article and your original post reads as if you thought that part was an expression of the comment authors opinion. The only part of th

Yes but it is used as a function for transforming vanilla option prices into a more natural unit: their implied volatility rather than their dollar price. Option traders think of option prices in terms of the implied volatility not the doll

I am not sure if it counts as providing a benefit to society but I think the Dell private equity process(taken private in 2013 and reintroduced to the public market in 2018) is generally considered a success from a business standpoint. As m

Yes but exactly because the decentralized currency is much more difficult to control and explicitly circumvents parts of current banking regulations, I have a hard time fathoming that policy makers and central banks would advocate decentral

I agree. In which case I think the question as posed in a sibling thread is central: How do CBDCs differ from the current digital settlement system already available at several central banks? The sibling thread mentions the Bank of England

While I am not familiar with the story you are referring to, it does not sound weird to me. Given that QE works by the central bank buying risky assets (initially government bonds), presumably the banks received the QE money by selling high

by adament 6y ago
I think if we want to argue that central banks will soon be pushing for CBDCs to let people have accounts directly with the central bank we need to argue why they at the same time are opposing* narrow banks, which to me seems to be a differ

How? Maybe it is because I live in Denmark where I would claim we are close to a de facto digital currency: a large group(most people under 40) use credit cards or a phone based payment solution for all purchases, use a phone based solution

It also depends on what topology you put on your space, while the derivative operator is defined on all of C^k, that does not make it continuous. In fact as the GPs example shows, the topology you put on C^k and C^{k-1} must be so that unif
