And who’s to say she didn’t share the Scott Shaw account with others? She’s claiming that some of the times it was used she couldn’t have done it, not all of he times.

Spaced repetition makes any sequence easy to remember. Which is essentially what being the local “could you install xp”-guy was for this specific key.

I hate the attempt at framing this as a “guilty until proven innocent” the actual facts laid out its more of a “innocent until we had tons of evidence that we deem sufficiently proves you did it at which point you’ll need to mount a defense

In my teaching of python to newcomers (mostly coming from matlab/R or no programming background) they often try to do dict_a + dict_b, and are confused as to why that doesn’t work when list_a + list_b works fine. It think it’s an extre

One problem is that such people will the occasionally not get the job done, but have committed fully to the “part time” part, so they’ll continue a low effort schedule but not hit the targets. Other times they’ll get their parts done but be

The success of a company rests on thousands of factors one of which is the CEO. Even the best CEO can’t ensure success when all other factors are against it, but a mediocre CEO will sometimes fail when all favors are in their favor. Which i

Please provide an example of an s-expression that provides more information than can be encoded though a text string that is the same length, and in fact identical to said s-string. I mean, I get it. Lispers like lisp, and think it’s “bette

“Colon-separated files” are not unstructured though. And arguing that s-expressions are more expressive than text because “text” excludes all structured examples of text seems like an excessive in definitional acrobacy acrobacy.

> The reason s-expressions are better than text is that they are more expressive That has got to be a joke right? S-expressions are a subset of text it’s axiomatically impossible for them to be more expressive.

Research and drug development are pretty different leagues. A research paper might be 3 researchers with 20 mice. When your looking at preclinical trials it’s more like 300 people and 5000 mice per trial and god knows how many trials before

I think it’s wrong to say they knew it would never work. They tried quite hard to make it work, they just never had the breakthrough they expected and the CEO had already sold the world on. That part I find quite like many other startups wh
