   This seems to imply terms can only have and only one “right” definition, which is not how languages work, at all. Clearly there are two big clusters of meaning for “zero-knowledge” and they seem distinct enough to not overlap. Seems fine to

   Note that ROI is not the only criteria for investment. Some people invest on lower ROI investments if they think the positive externalities align with their values, and risk is just as important as ROI anyway. While I don't think this

   Is there any plan to expand to things like database modelling? I've been searching for a good modelling tool with automatic SQL generation, but most software is either legacy or very expensive.

   I assume part of this is because the manuscript hasn't been properly typeset for publishing yet.

   I've used Gurobi and Mosek and today I tend to use Gurobi whenever I can as a default. I use JuMP to switch solvers to Mosek or an open source solver is something doesn't go as expected.

   While it took me under an hour, I still wonder whether my implementation would have passed an interview. I generalized do_add_delta to three operations (incr, decr, mult) and otherwise copied code paths and extended the binary protocol.

   This only speaks to the academic nature of Fortran, and there's nothing wrong about it.

    OpenSCAD is mentioned in the first article in the website, “The world needs another CAD program” [1]: > The most popular Code-CAD application, as far as I can tell, is OpenSCAD. While programming your CAD models, like you would program s

    It's a heavily standardized, very recurrent problem that can take a lot of advantage of native code and platform-specific optimization, so it's really an ideal target for a Web API.

    MDN is meant to be a somewhat universal resource for web development. I've even seen official Google web dev resources pointing to MDN.

    The controversial part may be a reference to Basecamp's last year's ban on “societal and political discussions” at work, which was apparently motivated by the desire to end internal discussions about the company itself [1]. [1]:

    If this would allow me to check my files in a simple web UI (no need for collaboration or anything), and create share links for low-volume downloads I could just leave Google Drive permanently.

    Non-encrypted email in transit is a concern, but AFAIK most users should already be protected nowadays. (Google estimates [1] put it at around 9/10, tho probably not representative of Russia) A bigger concern might be Russian-monitored

    How does that change the toxicity he has observed? It's still as present, that doesn't do anything to change his argument.

    You can be skeptic and offer constructive critique while being kind. It's more about the attitude than the content of the message.

    An alternative to this (more similar to node red, actually) is n8n [1], which is pretty cool, but as others have said here, I never found a good application for this. [1]: https://n8n.io/

    Is anyone else having problem accessing the paper? The link on Science isn't working, and the DOI I managed to find in the rest of the coverage doesn't seem to exist. I can't find the paper anywhere.

    I think the classes opt for starting with a simple mental model students can adopt, which is gradually replaced with a more robust and nuanced mental model. In this case he wasn't talking just about frequentist methods tho, it's a

    I guess it really depends on your discipline, but Bayesian methods have become more and more popular in a lot of academic communities, being published alongside papers using frequentist methods, so I wouldn't say it's hegemonic an
