Recently I have been testing vditor, vditor is a markdown editor that have a instant rendering feature [1]. If I'm creating my own editor, how hard is it to implement it using Lexical? [1] https://github.com/Vanessa219&

This is true. But how does someone take advantage of it without changing their current behavior: write an entire paragraph and do 2 line breaks. Always end a sentence with '.\n'? Manually format lines so no line have more than 80

Oh this feature is great. Solves my problem completely. I wish github would also implement word-diff option. Edit: Github actually does some form of word-diff! See example here: https://github.com/chaoxu/chaoxu.github.i

git is line based, so good for code. But not for most markdown files, at least how I use it. I only start new line (actually, 2 new lines) when I reach a new paragraph, and I think this is normal for most people who ever write something in

I actually don't get why corporation should pay taxes. When the profit of the company is distributed, or paying the employees, the employees/shareholders will be taxed on that money.

Yes, having a simple and well defined DSL it might help with tax planning. The difference is it allows one to optimize taxes under certain objective, instead of just enter numbers and see what comes up.

How about the following process? Each person gets randomly assigned to one of the two groups, when one group is full, move the rest to the other group. Does this make sure every equal partition have the same probability of showing up?

btw, took me a lot of time to figure this out. http://mathb.in/49229 This is useful for people with multiple unrelated employers with 401k plans.

There are a few misconceptions that some other commenters are already making. This min-cut is different from the max-flow min-cut theorem's min-cut. This is what referred to as global min-cut, which does not fix the terminals. In max-f

What, I just got Azlo account a week ago. Good thing I've applied for an account with Mercury. Waiting through the long verification process... But this definitely get me to think twice about using fintech banks. It could get closed do

This is pretty good soulver replacement. I found all these similar tools has the problem that there is exactly one expression per line . Is there any exploration of this feature: have the computed number shown next to the expression. I had

0-1 knapsack is not known to be solvable in polynomial time.

Me too. It is also interesting to know it is written in Haskell. One of the few real life Haskell projects.

I've contributed some code to matroid optimization. The people working on it are very knowledgable, often professors at universities donating their time. I definitely learned a lot through implementing some algorithms from the 70s.

Totally agree. I tried a few ways and eventually giving up. I just have to live with not having accurate counts. 1. I try to make my own food using common ingredients. It failed in a couple of weeks because I do prefer to not spend that muc

I was a TA in a few undergraduate algorithms classes in at UIUC. This level of problems can show up in the exams. Although I hold UIUC students in high regard, certainly we don't expect undergrads to be "faculty-level algorithm sp

So Lambda School is considered as an educational institution. Does this mean any foreigner enrolled in it probably need a student visa? Can non-US residents take online courses while in the US without a student visa?

The one that works for sum works for all associative functions. One can do a bit better using the same amount of space, but with query time O(α(n)), where α is the inverse Ackermann function. http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/vie
