I guess since e=mc^2 everything is just energy anyway. Q: How do computers work? A: Computers use something called electricity to store information and use it to help with tasks. Electricity is a form of energy that comes from a power sourc

Not as infrequently as I'd like. Though usually people will chuckle it up and do nothing about it. People actually have a hard time believing men don't like it

Brutalism was popular in the 60s. You can see examples around the world. It's not really a matter of being a bad or good architect. It's more of architectural style preferences.

That makes sense. Lots of tourists there who travelled by plane and may not know how to drive or be unwilling to rent a car. The casinos would still like these people to drop by though

It surprises me that you met an illiterate driver, maybe in the 80s/90s. But literacy rates in Brazil are around 99% nowadays and taxi drivers, specially in São Paulo would know how to read and write. However, speaking English is not t

Yeah. I can see how that could be more difficult. Usually programmers will stick to ASCII in Portuguese, even though technically there are some non ASCII characters in the language. I can only imagine it's much more troublesome in Cyri

Other people in the industry know multiple languages and translate. Also, reading is much easier than writing. So, I'd say that, with maybe help of Google translate, a majority of people would be able to read those. Given I read and wr

In many places I worked at in Brazil people will just write everything, even variable names, in Portuguese. That came down to the developers not speaking English at all. Who considers it gauche to have software written in non-English? The R

Google also uses something close to SVN and explicitly avoids git. I don't think there's any sense of progression between the two. I think it comes down to which one fits your processes better.

Sort of. There may also be pantents involved. It'll be specially hard to defend against it when your inspiration came from the patented code itself.

Couldn't all clients always do a larger amount of iterations and not let that number be configurable at all?

Well, most people who consume art are not professional artists. That was my main point. From the point of view of a lay person (such as I), it looks pretty good.

I'm not an artist, but they look fine to me. I am not the kind of person who spends hours in a Gallery admiring the nuances of paintings or photos. However, at the level of detail I usually admire these things, the clown one looked int

Writing an operating system is hard and laborious. There are many bugs beyond memory and there are already many tools the Linux team uses to make it safer. That you can make a better, more stable version of the Linux kernel with rust is sti

The pirated copies usually come from people who defeated DRM and made it available to the public. If DRM is harder to break, it means less availability via alternate means.

My parents took me to see those. They had no interest in seeing otherwise. I'm sure most adults consider them to be children's stories. I liked Beauty and the Beast. I was not bored. Even watched on VHS multiple times.

The first one is actually Japanese and the second is an independent production. Sure, it was not unheard of. But I think the Simpsons is what made it mainstream. My point was that adults were not sitting down in front of the TV to watch car

Every kids show are made so parents would let them watch. One could argue that a show without sexual innuendo would score better. So, I’m not sure if the decision to include that was really to get parents onboard. I was suggesting Link’s be

That’s true about any person you talk with, to be fair.

Why do you say the target audience were parents? Everyone I hear talking about the show were kids when it aired. At the time animation was always for kids. Before the Simpsons there was no adult animation and even when that came out it was

Not a matter of comprehension, not of what's written anyway. But comprehension of how what is in there is the hardest case that can be made (among many possibilities), which the other side will have the most difficulty in making a case

It's not a bar. It's a process. Good authors + good editors are a great process to create good content. A single author + no editors is a significantly worse process.

That's true of bad books. But bad blog posts are even worse: they are trying to get maximum SEO. Both good posts and books are useful. When I'm getting introduced to a subject, I like books. The slower pace allows me to gradually
