The problem is that large codebases tend to have a huge footprint if you need to clone the whole repo. Git as-is does not allow you to only pull a subset, i.e. specific paths representing a sub project. That's what josh is trying to so

> "Logic" refers to the most basic set of logical operations (AND, OR, etc.) and their use. That's not what mathematicians mean with "logic". It's a much broader field than just boolean operators. Those are

I'm suggesting that monitoring an application for malicious behavior to detect it after the fact is the wrong approach. Once the data is sent, it's too late to do anything about it. Oh you first try fake data? That's easy to

And once you see them, you do what? Rollback reality?

That the input is matched position by position to alternative patterns and the first one is returned is another one of said assumptions.

Needless to say, all of this only works if the regex engine satisfies certain assumptions, i.e., order of "evaluation" is guaranteed. In abstract semantics of regular expressions, a|b and b|a are equivalent.

Not sure about the loner generally having an edge over college here. I had to communicate, collaborate and team work plenty back in the college days.

You are saying that all Walmarts and McDs in the Bay Area are staffed with people who have a 3 hour commute?

Nit: it's "bellwether". Nothing to do with the weather.

One needs to keep that approach in mind when judging people who are within a system that one as an outsider critizises. There may be people in there who try to change it for the better. A historical example is the French Revolution. Many pe

Complaining at a high level. People with 3 kids make do with jobs at Walmart and McD. "Pay is good enough" yeah sure.

While that's true, most of the valuable employees have 1 top skill: communication. That's neither trained nor witnessed by having gone through 2 years of I-did-this-alone-at-home.

With less than 5 years of experience it's definitely a factor. If your straight Cs and B- and only have 3 years in some junior role, you're really not prio 1 interview material.

You didn't answer the question though. Sounds like the answer is "yes, we maxed the total market cap" which is distinctly different from "we ended up with almost all the money". You didn't have the money, you o

> The professor thought we must have hacked the computer, but we played by the rules." Sounds like a terrible prof then. What is such a simulation supposed to teach if not that those kinds of attacks are possible? These are inherent

World hunger is caused by power imbalances. That's a social/political problem. Whatever technical solution you provide helps worsening the root cause and at best keeps the status quo. We have observed dramatic technical advances i

Is it? In my dayjob I'm solving technical problems with technical means. World hunger is not a technical problem. You won't solve it with technical means. If you think you can, you have already lost the fight. Climate change is

This is clearly trying to solve a non-technical problem with technical means. The root problem is that AWS cancels you with too high bounce rate. The obvious solution is to talk to some AWS representative to at least temporarily not cancel

What about people who can't prove a positive but truly are guilty? In this fuzzy form of what "positive" and "negative" are, there is a symmetry that allows all arguments you have for one "side" to be easi

Then you didn't read well. User tovej presented pretty good arguments about intrinsic vs extrinsic motivators, including a bunch of cited studies. Your argument that Amazon does great does not provide evidence. Maybe they's do eve

Is there any answer possible short of "it's god" that would satisfy you? I'm asking because you are giving the impression that whatever answer you get, you will reply to with "but why?" and "that's ju

And you are ignoring my point. :) These questions already have (partial) answers and are otherwise being worked on. If you are really interested in answers, go ask a physicist and not some random dude on the internet whom you happen to disa

Clearly you are not a physicist. Just because you don't personally know sth does not mean it's not there or being worked on. The theory of relativity has quite clear thoughts about why there is a "speed limit". Entire br

These are all the same paradigm, in priciple. 2 is a special case of 3 and 1 is a special case of 2. All circuits differing in how powerful the processing nodes are.

Then your input is signed. And now what? How does this authenticate the output?

Same goes for all makers of those "independent games". If just one of those goes rogue, th system is void. You need trust in all of them, not just those that you are playing. Worse, if your game currency is a decentraliced ledger,

There is still no value over a trusted third party, keeping all this in a central database. These games you are talking about just agree on this third party and that's it. And they already do that. The third party is states backing tra

Oil is free? Not sure where the Saudis got there riches from then. Otoh sitting in the sun for a few hours to charge some battery via rays from the sun is itself free.
