I might have an inkling of what this comment is saying, but I'm not sure. As written it almost sounds like the description of a ponzi scheme or a more pedantic means of saying "they lend out the money given to them by depositors&q

It would have been very nice to see comments with stack diagrams in the code examples. FORTH code without them becomes very hard to understand in very short order.

I've used `reset` that way a few times, but pretty much never `reset --hard` Still, this is not something that should be suggested to someone unfamiliar with git. It's just too easy to screw up your codebase.

The chunk about `git reset --hard` should be prefixed with a big warning label saying "Don't use this unless you know exactly what you're doing". There are very few legitimate reasons to use `git reset --hard <commit

Does anyone still use waterfall? I'd thought that had fallen by the wayside a long time ago in favor of less rigid processes ...

Apple doesn't do this kind of infrastructure. Their stuff only works if the rest of the network works, which seems to be what's falling over here.

Looking at the full picture, that rifle is very likely not even pointed at the man being given water. I wouldn't be surprised to find that the solder with the weapon is facing away from the whole scene, and not watching the two helping

A big reason Inuse chrome is that it is literally everywhere I need it to be: Mac, Linux, Windows, IOs, and Android. Edge is only on one of those and the only time I interact with a Windows machine is when my wife needs help fixing/rec

What does "2e people" mean in this context ... That's not a term I've run across before?

Well now. I guess everyone runs into one of these every now and then. I thought my Roku had finally bought it.

I was working from the idea of a nyquist or sampling rate needed to "perfectly" reproduce a wave form. I know this works for lower frequencies but I have no idea how well it translates to something like optical frequencies/li

No apology needed. When things get that small and you're dealing with light, it's a legitimate question. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave%E2%80%93particle_duality

For 635nm red laser light, you'd need to be sampling somewhere in the order of 9.4 x 10^14 times a second to get two samples per cycle. Based on roughly 300000000m /635nm x2 but then the question comes down to how many cycles make

DNS equivalency is meaningless here. You'd have to have a way to check the with the webserver because of name based virtual hosting and SNI.

You may know that, but does the average person who might find themselves in a jury pool know that? Would they understand the distinction? To the average lady person, this would be like saying alizeran crimson is more than just a red paint.

Does this change impact the ability to programatically create ads? I seem to remember the Facebook API treating ads as a kind of shadow post on a page the last time I messed with it. If that is still the case, this could also force users i
