I'm with this guy. Obviously I'm missing something or not understanding what is being said here, because to my head f(x) = x+1 changes every single point and is continuous. Or in the glass of water point, what if I pour the water

Google makes all employees do this, for whatever it's worth. I think this may just be kinda standard for corporate stuff. (Not telegram, but the self destructing messages)

Not the one person, the whole trend in the way we consume information and communicate with people. Obviously.

I think the "counterpoint" here is that that makes an amount of sense >0. While it's far from a complete story, and there are plenty of edge cases where it can be misleading, it's also a metric that will tend to bias

I guess this can sort of flow two ways, though. A politician might know a law is coming up, and so buy a stock that is going to benefit from it: your argument is convincing there. But they might also hold a stock, and because of that they m

This just seems really obvious. Even if there are sheep nearby worth hunting, it's probably always eventually going to be the right move to suicide.

You have to make them. It costs time and equipment that ramen and Mac and cheese don't.

I think he means they are never declared unsolved on the sense that "this isn't solved and we are not going to think about it anymore, unsolved is it's final status"

Plus, for whatever it's worth the classic is already guaranteed to be culturally significant. Other people will have read it and you can talk to them about it, which can be a fun exercise and may not be true for whatever random book yo

I doubt they can really write it off as the cost of doing business, I imagine they are running in the red with respect to the country of Norway this year, which is the place they made the mistake.

On the other hand, this sort of needs to exist on some level for two reasons: 1. If you go bankrupt, most stuff can be taken away if you can't pay for it. I can take your car, house, etc, but I can't take you education. You still

I think it would be important that the students are punished no more harshly than the professor.

Or, maybe even better, they need to keep coming up with new nonsense to put in headlines. After a year or two people know "one weird trick" articles are in fact spam, so it becomes necessary to produce new phrases to put in headli

I guess the point here is that an object pool isn't the default anyways: theyve chosen to do something non-default for performance, which you can still do in immutable by default languages.

The problem is, Google doesn't know they both have the rights to it. It just knows they both uploaded it. They might neither of them have the rights to it. It's just some arbitrary audio, and google was able to find another very s

One other case where imo the 5% should apply: if someone goes to the store and searches for your app by exact name. Ie if I go to the store and search "Netflix", the store hasn't helped me discover that product.

I think it's actually possible for ie bolt to be beating them without peds, I just think it isn't meaningful. Many peds (ie testosterone) are just extra dosage of something your body produces anyways, or cause your body to increas

I don't think this expresses the problem accurately. Something like facebook is "obvious on retrospect" in the sense that lots of people could theoretically have built a similar site if they just had the idea and the right ti

Not sure why the downvote. It's at best complete speculation on this guy's part and realistically it seems like it just isn't true.
