The fundamental problem with cryptography (that doesn't apply as much to other areas) is that it's not a subject you can learn by playing with it. That's a result of the complexity of building a correct solution, the ease of

Why do you feel it is weird? They are both 90%, because 90% * 100% + 10% * "effectively 0%" is completely dominated by the first term.

Very confusingly written document, but from what I gather there are two vulnerabilities that are problematic for different reasons. 1) a command execution vulnerability in 7z. This is problematic because a downloaded 7z file could comprom

Depends on the design. Roundabouts decrease speed (good) but if the cyclists follow the same path as cars they are more difficult to see in mirrors (bad). The Dutch solution is having cyclists follow a route about 1-2m from the main roundab

TRIZ ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIZ ) is a methodology that tries to solve problems by mapping them to a set of 40 "generic problems". It's not focused on algorithms per se, but on industrial probl

This seems all well thought-out and the drawings are very well-made. However, descriptions like "We make a path p : true ≡ false from the assumed path (homotopy) h : Refl ≡ loop by constructing a non-trivial Bool-bundle over the circle

Fair question -- I wasn't involved in the decision, but my understanding is that GitHub is relatively cheap if you're a C# shop (i.e. you're already paying MS for VS). We had to have some moving pain anyway as teams in differ

In the process of moving from GitLab to GitHub. We just use naming conventions for this: all repositories are called Company.Group.Product, where Group roughly corresponds to the old GL group.

It's unfortunate this isn't mentioned in the repair manual -- that simply mentions 'go into the bios and use that to soft-disconnect the battery'. Which is awfully difficult if you're disassembling the computer to r

The "metrification" of Dutch customary units is a fascinating subject on itself. The "ons" was in fact quite close to the ounce, but it was set to 100 grams during metrification. The step from 1 pound to 1 metric pound =

It's a badly written article (is this a civil or a criminal case?), but my reading is that because of these facts the case was not immediately dismissed. Which does not mean Salesforce is liable, just that they need to show up for an a

Thanks for explaining that, that makes a lot of sense. I hadn't considered the terms would be effectively impossible to follow, even for a reuser/hoster with good intents.

The dynamicness of languages like Python make it relatively easy to do so. For example, it's difficult in Java to mock an http request if you can't inject a `HttpRequestor` (or so) to the object you're testing. In Python, it

Why would "makes your code run 1% faster" be a better sell than "saves you 1% development time by reducing the number of bugs"?
