The main statement of the linked story is that on modern machines stack doesn't need to be small therefore we can embrace on-stack recursion, and current general preference for iteration over recursion is just an old luggage. To me it

The part about script is very stretched, let's face it. I'm not denying that asking in natural-ish language maybe more comfortable for some operations, but when something becomes repetitive (and most things people do for money are

Court usually takes circumstances into consideration, so yeah, there's proportionality encoded. It's not like everybody's given 20 years automatically.

Destroying evidence. Not for something. Just destroying evidence is a crime in itself. Ask your lawyer maybe.

The punishment is for destroying evidence, not destroying a plane. And it's so heavy because otherwise it would make perfect sense to destroy evidence.

I think it's sort of mode of reading thing: while on HN you expect either a technical piece of information, or news where you can quickly jump directly to conclusion. But this one is a rare bird here, a story-telling. I wouldn't c

No, that's not true. You apparently glanced over it, but didn't really read it, so making a summary for others was not the best idea. The story is more about real-life limitations for tracking of stolen things with "Find My..

>detachable and wireless. Let me deepen this: there's no reason for eink to be attached to LED monitor at all. It's obviously more practical to have separate reader, all is needed is a possibilty to quickly share content to it.

True silence makes people to experience auditory hallucinations usually. So like tinnitus, but I guess less predictable, and less consistent

Of course I haven't as I made zero claim about mnemonics. We're talking about readability i.e. cognitive burden which by definition increases with amount of unknown words, or words with unexpected contextual meanings

Here's a recent (Oct 2022) reference to solid science [1] which seems to contradict WP claim of strong evidence: While there is some evidence that eating unprocessed red meat is associated with increased risk of disease incidence and m

Emacs is a programmable environment constructor, ain't it? Significant share of users prefer evil-mode, and use "p in command mode", not c-y. There are people who have custom keyboards (and even pedals) and their bindings of

Now, it's clearer what you mean. But still doesn't not make much sense, sorry! You apparently see something which I didn't say, and refute something which I didn't say with impressive energy. No, making docs using common

I'm not sure if your answer is for my comment, or you posted it to the wrong thread. If it's the former, could you clarify what part of my comment you answering?

Not sure if this 80s secession attempt is true, but just to add some dimension of complexity, if such things mentioned without a vast context it's guaranteed to be misunderstood. In 80s it was still USSR, and what was "X leadeship

The fact that Emacsen developers started to create text-manipulation terminology earlier is laudable. But it doesn't make Emacsen terms better. From purely pragmatic perspective we have almost a separate language which brings additiona

I don't see him defending whatever. Ongoing assault on private communication is a world-wide problem, nothing specifically Indian.

For me personally it's a nice way to build, and manage relations with people serving me food in cafes I frequent. Works for me.

No, and?

by brokenkebaby 3y ago
Customers pay restaurant employee wages anyway, so I'm not sure I understand what model "makes no sense" exactly. Tipping is a way to create a direct feedback between customer, and server, and as such it makes a lot of sense.

It's nitpicking. You can make 500 steps vs 100, and make a headline-like claim that it's five times more. In real life difference is negligible. Your organism requires walking in significant doses, and for you to practice it, you

Walking to/from bus stop surely doesn't sound impressive. You can practice a smallscale shopping with every sort of transport (it depends more on available shopping infrastracture, and economical reasons). And you surely can walk

Sitting in a bus is still sitting, offering no health benefits vs sitting in a car (arguably, it's even less healthy when crowded). If the topic is health, the opposite here is walking, or (to lesser extent) cycling.

It looks like you are equating pink salt, and mined salt. Mined salt usually colored in white-gray spectrum.

Because booking.com answers the question "where can I stay given place, date, and budget"? While direct access can only help you when you already know where are you going. The latter is fine if you travel to the same place many ti

Higher compared to what? There are plenty of smaller hostels/hotels which don't even bother to have their own website (only some FB page, and Booking.com listing)
