The usual poll is drafted in a way that almost everyone answers yes (usually by pro independence newspapers). Something like: "would you approve the vote on a referendum agreed with Spain?" Otherwise, it's pretty obvious peop

There was an article about a small change in cattle diet that vastly reduced it's methane emissions. Something related to an Australian algae. Here, I found it: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.independent.co.

Color blindness is due to a defective gen that express one of the three kind of cones in the eye. Usually the cones more sensitive to middle length photons (M ~green) become closer to the cones more sensitive to long length photos (L ~red)

It seems they're getting parsing times 1,000x slower than any other parser, 10,000x slower than simdjson. The complaint is understandable, but ironic :)

Because they're still small applications and not what everyone is looking for. Just like other technologies first got to the market in some small niche applications, and it took decades to fully realize their potential.

We already have some graphene applications in the market. We may not get a graphene rope, just like we don't have a nuclear boosted car, but that doesn't mean there are not practical applications in the market and others expected

Thank you for the correction. You're right, I should have said "one of the main researchers [...]". Pablo is the third author of the main paper.

I'm a long time friend with Pablo, the main researcher behind this discovery, since our time together at the university. Every time this pops up there is some comment dismissing the discovery as yet another graphene theoretical breakth

Bernie's a genius and super humble guy. I was lucky enough to work close to him during his last months in Switzerland before he left to NY. He's inspiring.

It seems the total value Illumina can extract from DNA tests will be limited. Doesn't a 100$ test put a cap of 100$ per person? Once sequenced, you don't need to sequence your DNA again, right?

A few years ago (2003, time flies) I wrote a piece table with a twist, instead of using a linked list I used a tree. I put a description of the whole algorithm here: http://e98cuenc.free.fr/wordprocessor/piecetable.html

It is not "certainly" a basic right. Some countries accept it, others do not. As for the cultural, language and historical I see absolutely no basis for this referendum. Cultural wise I have never, ever, see the slightless differe

You can change your last sentence to say: "Only spanish can decide their own fate". Only Scotland voted on their referendum, as agreed by the whole United Kingdom. USA did not allow southern states secede, Germany did not allow Ba

And what's exactly the principle of democracy that the spanish constitution is violating? The right of a part of a country to secede is not recognized by most constitutions around the world, and it is certainly not a "principle of

For me, a key advantage of MySQL is Sequel Pro. I've never found a GUI for postgresql that can touch it. If there was one, I will switch in a heartbeat as I will love to have access to some more advanced SQL than what's available

It's slower than that, it will be travelling the circumference of the Earth once in 13 seconds. Light itself can "only" go around the Earth 7 times in a second.

The startup time was horrible . The speed, once it was running, was good, but the startup time made it completely unusable on the web. The ugly default UIs in Java did not help. I did my fair share of applets back in the day, starting with

That has been official since 2011, but even today you may need some lib only available in Python 2.x and thus may need to start a new project in 2.7. I started several python projects since 2011 knowing that it was a dead end, but my hands

By "quite a spike" you mean a change from 8 min to 10 min in a value with a relatively high variance? That's a slight increase at best, and nothing here suggest anything else than the null hypothesis.

When are those conditionals deleted? I assume after a few conditional features it can be hard to make sure all the possible combinations work well. What strategy do you use to decide when to permanently enable a feature and simplify the cod
