The explanation seems to work even in base 10. Let's do the average of 85 and 95. The leftmost digit of both is equal, so we leave it: X5 The "xor"/2 is the sum of the non equal digits divided by 2 (respecting their p

From that list, Hanauer's talk on inequality might not be super profound, but I just listened to it and I cannot even understand how was it seen as partisan and banned.

I think that the parent comment is actually supporting your point. It does not need to be Turing Complete to be extremely useful. Conversely, a model of computation (CSS) could be Turing Complete (with infinite memory, etc.) and lack arbitr

Laws, at least in many European countries, are prefaced with a preamble, introduction, or Vorwort, that explains a bit of the history, the motivation, the underlying principles, the philosophy, the practicality, and the guidelines for inter

Can you, in general, keep exactly the same insurance contract if you change employers (but paying it by yourself)? Because if not, and you ever had any serious condition, then, I would consider it tied to your employer. In other countries,

Almost every country keeps a record of the actual cause of death - the data for month X is usually delayed 2-3 months. Excess deaths are just a summary of the official statistics. The reason excess deaths are important because they are comp

I understand the foundation of your reasoning; boiling down liberty to the freedom of self harm. Mill was a lot more nuanced.

I am sure I had learned (long in the past) that they were in different families; but my little exposure to Turkish led me to believe (having forgotten what I had learned) that they were related; why? because the conjugations and tense modal

Oh, I thought that the comment about not looking as idiomatic code was referring to the kernel::new_device_... sample in a parent/parent HN comment. I was more interested in knowing what was so unidiomatic about that.

I don't believe that the change to rust (and I like rust a a lot) will lead to a measurably more secure kernel in the long term, although it will mean that maintaining the kernel will require knowledge of Rust in addition to C (and som

I agree with everything; for users that are experts in their domain (not computer science), if you don't use text in the frontend that they can parse with little (but very inefficient) code in their scripting language of choice, then,
