I have pretty comprehensive journal access through my job but I still couldn’t get this one. It makes sense that the Hilbert curve gave more accurate results, and in that application it probably makes sense to spend more compute time for a

If you think you want to use a Hilbert Curve for cache locality (on a square grid), you might want to check out the Z-Order Curve instead - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-order_curve . It has less ideal locality prope

Try pdb++ (pdbpp) instead — it's like a much improved ipdb. It monkeypatches itself into pdb rather than defining a new package, so it works from any context that drops into the debugger. Its “sticky mode” alone is worth the switch.

Honest question: how do you make github search work for you? It often fails to find stuff that I know exists in a given repo. Nothing fancy, even single-word full symbol names.

Derek's blog is absolutely incredible. For the uninitiated, I suggest to start with the "Things I Won't Work With" category: http://blogs.sciencemag.org/pipeline/archives/category/thing...

Whew! I've replaced the microswitches in mine once already, and a few of the pads are starting to lift. I don't think it would take another round of desoldering...

Yes, the original individual commits are kept alive and never garbage collected from GitHub's copy of the repository. You can get back to them on the website via the "Commits" tab of the PR. Local clones won't contain th

PubPeer might be a decent option. They have some mechanism to identify comments from the author but I haven't investigated how it works. www.pubpeer.com

I think you might be looking at the wrong thing on the Wikipedia page. The core feature of Duff's Device is interleaved switch and do statements: n = (count + 7) / 8; switch (count % 8) { case 0: do { *to = *from++; case

I believe solving a puzzle always allows you to move to another "room" as defined by the map, which actually makes the map more helpful than you think...

I think a sample report (from a fictitious but plausible contract) would be helpful to clearly explain what the service does.

I found a much nicer (with antialiasing) .ps version hiding alongside the original, and the source .tex too: http://www-formal.stanford.edu/jmc/history/lisp.ps http://www-formal.stanford.edu/jmc/history/lisp.tex The original HTML doesn'

"git add -p" is wonderful for this. In a nutshell, git has line-level granularity for committing, instead of file-level granularity (I know it's technically more complex than that). When you add a file for committing with -p, you interactiv

Yeah, there is a 0.25 second CSS transition on it. It definitely feels sloppy. I tried 0.1s and that feels a lot better. And actually, 0.1s on :hover and 0.25s on the base selector gives a neat "sticky" effect.
