Some resources for those who aren't too active in keeping up with C++, these slides are a good quick summary[0]. The talks linked on this page[1] are particularly good, especially the CppCon16 Gor Nishanov talk[2]. Paulo[3] has some in

You can if you want to go that 'far' . It's pretty easy to add full SMT support if you want (via Z3). Out of the box, it's not required. You get existential/universal quantification, conjunction and disjunction as

You should really write an analysis contrasting the functionality of these IDEs, especially those 'mostly forgotten' ones so they aren't lost into the abyss. I've used Squeak Smalltalk and DrRacket in the past. As some

Let me preface this with: I'm a huge proponent of SQL when appropriate. I understand why Cassandra et al were required when generating dynamic live newsfeeds for each user in an ecosystem when the RDBMS query plan was pretty much des

Mmm, in every nation-state there is going to be some economic redistribution. For example, I pay two state taxes (NY and MA). Both of these states contribute far more to the federal government than they retrieve in services rendered. Compar

For storage, PSH[1] while obviously not lossless can deal with excess peak capacity -> cyclical demand in a fairly scalable way and unlike lead-acid, LiCO2/LiFePO4/etc, don't suffer from anode dendrite formation. I have ex

How do you incentivize "produce less goods/generate less profit"[1]? That's a genuine question. We can barely de -incentivize flat-out criminal behavior. The line between malice and negligence is a tenuous at best. DA&#
