Isn't the phrasing "density of space" a bit off? I mean a density is a scalar quantity of something per unit of space. So Density of Space would literally mean quantity of space per unit of space? Reading the article it would

The difference with a colorizing, cleanup or restauration effort of a material object is that in that case the source material is not destroyed. In that regard, the only downside for historians is that it might become more difficult to find

The new Slack on mobile is absolutely unusable. There are no way to know if the interface is up to date, when was the last update or to force an update. The only way I found to know that your message has been received is to have an ack from

Not OP, but one good reason to do that is to reduce probability and frequency of collision with other periodically running jobs. Let's say you run your job on the hour, and you have a job running every 4h and another every 24h, without

One factor that is missing from this post is the processing time on the backend which is also insanely fast. This post only considers frond-end optimizations. On the author's benchmark, a roundtrip seems to take on average 30ms, and th

I know nothing about GP, but note that it is possible that English is not his first language, and the subtleties of the story and vocabulary might be lost in translation. In my native language (French), as you describe it, there is no word

One issue not yet mentioned with Turing complete language at compile is that it makes tooling and IDE integration much more difficult. When you need to run an unbounded program each time you want to provide real time feedback, like type inf

Is there a a good read on how RNA and DNA work for a Computer Scientist? And more generally how biology, genetics, epigenetics, virus, etc work? Many vulgarization sources say that DNA is like the source code of life. But they mostly skim a

I find that the biggest misunderstanding happens because "new grads" (and I happen to be one) confuse _asymptotic complexity_ with actual complexity. I'm not sure sure why, but CS courses and interview questions mostly focus

I would be very surprised that the average number of steps across their userbase has uniformly decreased for all users. For example we could imagine the scenario where some people were able to keep their habit and did not have a great decre

I don't want to sound mean, but the simple fact that you forgot to divide by the matrix determinant for me is a great illustration of why using a library might be a good option. I think for most of us can make this mistake, and reasoni

That might work for video games, but in a web company I've seen so many throwaway bash, perl or python scripts wrapped in an `system(*command)` that are unmaintainable and sometimes cause RCE or injections bugs. I feel that this advice

I imagine you said that as tongue in cheek, but good "code reviews" should not be feared. If it is the case it either means that environment you are coding is toxic, or that you have not made clear with your peers that code review
