Even today the editors will know and corresond with you. They then send it to the reviewers, to make it double blind. But I see your argument with already popular researchers for the selection step..

Have you tried GOG.com? They use Dosbox as emulator inside their software, so any DOS game should run on Apple silicon (or Windows 11).

That is something different, since Algeria could not change anything in the game at Gijon. That what makes it disgraceful. In Barbados 4–2 Grenada, both teams still had the opportunity to act, albeit in unforseen and seemingly strange ways.

Another and maybe more accessible target would be the IBM Thinkpad X41. It was incredibly slim for its time, it still kept the 4:3 screen ratio (not sure if compatible with the bigger ipads?). I wrote a bachelor thesis on it and a fanless v

For the younger: EU regulation is the sole reason why most devices charge by USB nowadays. In the age before the smartphone, every company would ship their own charging bricks with fixed cables and connectors. I still have a drawer full of

I am also in search for a elegant way to teach such implementations in Python. I do not want students to confuse this with OO, not sure if they see the value in functional programming so soon. My best idea so far is to teach the concept of

I always wonder how actors are insured while filming a big production. And what logistics or prep is in place for the case of their death. Well, in the future there will be a contractual clause and a 3D scanning session at production start…

To aid the discussion: There are multiple kinds of heat pumps used for homes, mainly air-to-water and water-to-water. Since the post is 12 years old, the availability of air-to-water solutions may be understated. At least in Europe it is no

I often feel that for example Python web stacks are overly reliant on conventions. Your work is expected to follow nested conventions, and if you do so, things work. Yet, some conventions imported from other underlying packages are not docu

I think you do not need to wait that long for marketed AI written synquels. (I just made this up for "synthetic sequel"). It will be very interesting to see how exactly this is marketed and how big the market for such product will

This is an interesting guessing game. What country could it be? You must be thinking that automotive will suffer from this, this leaves France and Germany on the table. Arguably, a lot of the sector is spread across the EU, but this spread

For the sake of a mind game assume that assignments and solutions can be copyrighted. The mind game is: The assignment is most likely produced with a solution, but published without (lets say else it would not be 'assignable'). Fo

In iOS it does the same for iCloud. There is no official way to switch from Android to iOS, and the reverse is only possible for some newer Samsung phones.

We are currently evaluating SymPy in Jupyter Notebooks as tool for teaching and from that experience I would add both simplicity for beginners as well as explicitness to the laundry list. Python and SymPy for example will simplify things th

It would be a better benchmark to compare Sweden with Denmark, since societies and health care capabilities are more alike.

Strangely not. You can do CS on paper, no need for a single bit-flipping device. Turing did half the field in his head / a thought experiment.

You are one bed sheet away from chroma keying in OBS. Since you can easily configure the color to be keyed, you will have luck with anything besides the color of your skin or your eyes. I tested it with a green sheet fitted on the bookshelf

It depends: I think the advent of MP3 pushed the concept of psychoacoustics* into the spotlight and the smartphone "revolution" made it mainstream. Therefore speakers just sound like they would sound good without being physically

"Efficiency" in this study is measured by counting errors in reproduced texts and that is a fair operationalization for "typesetting". Yet, it seems that the design omits a central variable as there is no information on

Is (online) education is an attractive market? Before Covid, the answer was: Meh. Lot of competition, little funding in most countries. And Moodle (or Canvas) is a good enough solution, both also enable kind of third-party marketplaces. We

We use green energy at home. Its as simple as choosing the right provider and paying a cent extra per kw/h. Its bs if you would expect Hetzner owned windmills connected straight to the DC.

Not sure if that is the case for every institute / subject in Austria, there are entrance exams for medicine in Vienna, as far as I know. But for some universities and some subjects that is also true for Germany.
