I don't think reclusiveness is the problem per se. These individuals are either fully or partially dependent on family or the government for the basic necessities.

I don't agree with your suggestion about olympiad math since it often has little relationship to applying advanced mathematics, but there definitely is merit to the idea that you might need to put theory into practice in order to gain

I thought yield rates were a thing? (Although a closely guarded secret for obvious reasons.)

He explicitly says that he has no need to type this fast. He simply wants to. It's okay for different people to want to do different things in life.

Alcubierre's drive is a solution to Einstein's field equations which simply means the math checks out in theory for warp drive. The resulting practical problem is that the energy requirements necessary for the solution are far gre

You don't need a source for common sense. It will take years for self driving cars to become reliable. There are many adverse conditions the car will need to be able to deal with in the real world. Weather and all other chaotic system

I still want to understand what it means to be economically dialectical.

"Deng said he was proceeding in a dialectic manner economically." What does this mean? Isn't dialectics a form of reasoning?

This is a really good post which contributes to the conversation. Why make it on a throwaway account? We need more of this here!

I understand that Raven's can vocalize, I am just skeptical of that original video you linked. I am just wondering if there was evidence that it was authentic since that Youtube user's videos seem to go so far beyond what I'v

I am skeptical of the specific video he linked, not of the well established fact that Raven's can vocalize.

Is there any evidence this isn't fake?

This article is a combination of hyperbole and speculation. Take the first paragraph in the section entitled "The CEO": "After the massive success of The Empire Strikes Back, Lucas realized that he was making 3 times as much

So according to this binary definition of free speech, what countries actually have it? It seems like many countries have limitations on free speech, which according to this definition would mean they do not actually have free speech. http

This is a vast oversimplification of the problem. LLVM is a compiler IR; nothing more. It is not portable (you cannot generate IR for one target and have it work for another target) and it does not trivially map to the semantics of most lan

You still deliver the mobile runtime as a static library, but the compiled library contains the entire LispWorks runtime minus the native code compiler (which is a constraint of the lack of executable memory on iOS). The runtime contains a

LispWorks' iOS mobile runtime can be used for interactive development. I use SLIME to develop with it myself.

If you mean Lisp as a straightforward expression of "Lambda calculus" then I would agree. However, Lisp as in Common Lisp most certainly has a good amount of syntax. And let's not forget macros which amount to user defined sy

The compiler processes byte-code as input, not Java source code. Therefore any language which can emit JVM byte-code ahead-of-time (AOT) should theoretically work. Clojure, for example, permits AOT byte-code delivery of your project. So wit

The game does not actually force you to replay old missions. You just have to complete certain side missions to progress in lieu of them. That confused me as well though - but I never had to complete any of those repeat missions and I compl

I encourage you to read Practical Common Lisp for an introduction to CLOS - the Common Lisp Object System. It's available for free online. ( http://www.gigamonkeys.com/book/ ) If you are convinced that there may be
