What happened to Spain? They didn’t get hit by WW2 and yet…are a distant sixth in economic size behind even Russia.

Why use mutexes (mutices?) over semaphores?

Wait but...if you use an ATM, you're going to be hit by ATM (read: middleman) fees every single time. Also, you massively increase your risk of getting hit by identity theft via compromised ATM.

The problem with shoes is that there figuratively (and literally) is no one-size-fits-all. There are several elements of a shoe that can wreck your experience with it without you understanding why. - Heel drop, as others have said, can dest

That’s great for martial artists where the new arts are objectively better and more robust against the wider array of attacks one must withstand today. But software…? He’s declaring victory at virtually every level but the highest. Who hone

Any proof of that? I’ve always found Yandex to be substandard but never for reasons of censorship.

You have to wait for the investigation to complete to receive compensation if you’re hit by fraud on a debit card. Credit cards don’t share that issue. If you’re poor or living paycheck-to-paycheck, debit cards are potentially a risk to you

How could they possibly know? If Tristan posted on r/math and they slurped that up as training data, that would count, no? They might never even know. I can’t envision any absolute statement by them claiming that they didn’t use his wo

What does it matter? They offered concurrent credit to the other team. I thought I saw sole credit elsewhere in the leaked DMs on Reddit too. This is plainly fair.

Consider the twist-and-tape method if no one has suggested it yet. It’s inarguably safer and good enough for NASA!

I feel like the US has been pretty good at installing foot-knobs (if you will) in new bathrooms. That seems to be the most hygienic strategy, no?

I wonder if this is being reinforced via LLM because they see every other modeler doing the same thing.

Are you willing to denounce each and every Chinese company for equal amounts of IP theft as well then?

Protip: break the lock off of your oven and put it on cleaning mode to reach sufficiently high temperatures...or just accept that homemade pizza will taste a little different than restaurant-bought.

A local pizza place sells premade dough and toppings. We just order that and cook it ourselves. It’s not perfect but it’s exactly the way we want it and we get to bond over making it. If I’m going to blow pizza-level calories in a meal, I c

We do all this self-congratulation around funding OSS companies and then end up with OSS companies that exist only thanks to government subsidization. Why? Isn’t governmental control over funding what we hate about Microsoft? What is so bad

Do you think China should open their borders for everyone no questions asked? Kick out no one, even overstayed visas? If not, are you willing to equate the current Chinese regime’s quality to that of your perceived quality of the US?

Economically they'd be best off with an outright 2% back card. Robin hood is pushing a 3% card right now. Not holding my breath for the rate to last more than a year though.

We recently banned a cluster of ChatGPT accounts originating in Russia We banned a cluster of ChatGPT accounts that very likely originated in Russia. Methinks AI helped write this. Although…their evidence is pretty damning.

Why make him #5 in WoW of all games? Arena has never been that prestigious and most players primarily engaged in PvE rather than PvP, which didn’t have such rankings.

Prison labor and slavery are two separate concepts. You’d never accuse the ancestors of a black person of being “prison laborers”. What is happening in China is bona fide slavery and it’s telling that your response comes back almost like cl

Is it? They keep the scans (somewhere). These books would have rotted in bookstores and then been trashed once those bookstores went out of business. There’s no giant “used” section at Barnes and Noble. Libraries only have so much space and
