Oh, I see. Well, I guess I'm fine with the self promotion (which you do a bit to get hired even as an employee), as long as it's honest, polite, done a the right place and not annoying. I'm not on LinkedIn (and I hope I won&#

Don't almost everyone sell themselves? Many people, as employees, sell themselves for 5 days per week, every week, except days off. And everybody buys stuff, and therefore relies on people selling stuff. The only way I see we could avo

There are two issues with such alignment that may make the "less readable" version a bit better despite being, indeed, arguably less readable: - a modification might lead you to realign several lines, making diffs noisier (though

Could very well be! Interesting, I didn't know about the Gettier problem, thanks for sharing. You could try submitting that page as a proper HN post.

Oh yes, but Google products are notoriously worse on Firefox, if one is to believe the numerous comments on HN on the topic (although I haven't tried myself recently so I can't be quoted on this), and that interpretation doesn&#x2

Reading that you are extremely embarrassed and sorry that you made such a huge oversight, I was imagining you had broken something / worsened CPython's performance. But it's nothing like this. You announced a 10-15% perf impr

I've never seen this. Usually you don't have the LaTeX source of a paper you cite, you wouldn't know which label to use for the reference, when the cited paper is written in LaTeX at all. Or something changed quite a bit in r

How do you protect your self host against quantum risks?

Your parent comment's idea is quite sensible, no need to be contemptuous like this. Firefox branding is a mess, being both a browser and a set of services. It's reasonable to mix things up or to be confused.

If you self host, you don't need to wonder whether you need to respect their acceptable use policy.

It seems what you are looking for is a SIP provider. There are many. Some of them allow interconnection with the "real" phone network.

Ah, I didn't plan to keep this "In short" sentence in my comment, but it allowed you to share this, nice. I didn't know this "Pay it forward" phrasing nor that the idea was theorized (but of course it was, in h

Yes, of course, there is a asymmetry. The shape and the material, of course. Another example is that while sperm is constantly produced, ova are all there since birth. But this part: > The cells which divided then, are the same cells a

I don't think there's such a difference between the two kinds of gametes. Things are quite symmetrical. - Sperm is as alive as ova: not alive. What is alive is the combination of the two, after some development. - Both gametes con
