I think you're talking past the parent, whose point is that our universe's physics may not be polynomial time computable (or computable at all, for that matter).

When I worked at Square we required mutual TLS for almost all service-to-service communication within a datacenter, so sniffing traffic within the datacenter wouldn't be fruitful either (assuming no weakness in the cipher or TLS stack)

I think it's best to allow longer passwords for those who use long phrases. It's easier to remember the full phrase than a truncated version. You could show a warning that the extra chars beyond 50-55 will be ignored.

Presumably the parent meant a stock whose share price tracks inflation in spite of its dividend. So if you reinvest the dividend, you beat inflation and potentially beat the market, depending on the dividend yield.

I notice that they're all gable roofs, compared to the hip roofs which the author criticizes. Gable roofs usually look less prominent, since there's less surface area, and it's usually on the sides which you don't see as

by dlubarov 10y ago
The thing with roofs is that if you get substantial snowfall in winter, practicality demands a steep roof pitch, otherwise melted snow will drip through the shingles. A high roof pitch necessary makes the roof more prominent. From a reverse

Compressed speech doesn't take much space anyway. Narrowband AMR uses around 7kbit/s (depending on the desired quality), or ~1 megabyte for a 20 minute call. The quality isn't great, but it's adequate for most purposes,

I'm just suggesting that people are assigning blame in the wrong place. It's typically not Gradle's fault, but just that Gradle is being asked to perform a bunch of expensive (and often unnecessary) operations, like - The bui

Yes, but the java.time package is significantly smaller, and much improved in my opinion. For example, Joda has a few mutable structures, while java.time is 100% immutable. I still don't like how you can do things like Instant.from(Day

Did you see Java 8's java.time classes? There's LocalDateTime for type 2, and Instant which is like a much improved Date. Both obviously Joda inspired.

Fog Creek is something like 50 employees right? That seems like a reasonably sized team for their product, but Twitter/Uber are in a different ballpark.

I think the harsh weather must be a big factor - I visited in June and it was still quite cold and windy. Lots of icebergs even. I'm surprised the article didn't mention this. We saw some other tourists, mostly from nearby Canadia

I agree that TLS has little value if you can't verify who you're talking to. But at the very least, it's no worse than unencrypted HTTP. So it doesn't make sense to me that browsers are more stern about untrusted certs

Possibly. Our simulation might be run on hypercomputers whose performance isn't affected by that sort of complexity. Heat might not even exist in the host universe's physics.
