Something like Amazon Matchbook is a better solution in my opinion.

Even if the URLs on HN or various newspapers are not very human friendly, at least one can copy and save them. How do you propose doing that without URLs?

SELinux. This kind of stuff would be where it really shines. A correctly configured installation would block and report access to files the application is not supposed to access. Maintaining it, especially for individual applications, is wo

But then you need a schema to be able to parse the file. XML files can be checked for well-formedness and parsed without a schema file.

Check out latexmk. With it's -pvc option it has continuous preview (=auto-compilation).

I have a hard time seeing how anything but a teeny tiny fraction of scientific results would ever be amenable to such an automatic checking. And I am a mathematician -- in principle this should be easiest in mathematics, since at least we h

Microsoft Plus! for Windows 95 had lots of fun themes. The cursor of the science theme was a glass tube with some chemical bubbling inside. Unfortunately, I can't even seem to locate pictures of those themes.

What does that have to do with serializable transactions? "The Serializable isolation level provides the strictest transaction isolation. This level emulates serial transaction execution for all committed transactions; as if transactio

That only applies for the read committed isolation level. It seems to me that at least serializable should not show inconsistent state in this situation?

So, I move my mouse pointer over one of the example images, and it goes... blank? That's just terrible UX.

It's obviously {}, duh! ;) (In one of the ways of constructing the natural numbers within ZFC set theory in mathematics, one identifies 0 with the empty set {}, 1 with {{}}={0}, 2 with { {}, {{}}} = {0,1}, and so on.)

Seems like all the complexity and special casing of the time keeping is moved into the "holiday month" at the end. E.g., Which financial quarter does it belong to? Moreover only 5 or 6 out of the 10 weekdays will occur in the holi

This is also my experience. Almost everybody doing a PhD that I have met is doing so out of personal interest in the subject area. I think pretty much everybody understands that as a career path academia sucks, but they do it because they l

Adding a bit of history to the other comments: Bazaar is actually a successor to an earlier DVCS, called Gnu Arch (or Tom Lord's Arch, TLA, at some point). It started out in 2001 and was, I believe, the first of the DVCS crowd. It had

I think it is the job of the advisor of the student to guide him in the choice of conferences to go to or journals to publish in. He should know the truly important ones in his field, and be able to make a judgment of the quality of a confe

I don't get it: The quote by Dr. Richard essentially says that the reason to do it this way in BCPL is because they are offsets, and it would have been unnatural to subtract 1 of them. I can't see anything about the computational

When I was reading that page I wasn't sure whether they just misspell paper, misspell it on purpose to make a parody of these marketing websites, or whether that should be something else. Only the HN thread told me that apparently it&#
