Honestly, that is not too uncommon. For top level algorithm choice analysis, "rounding" O(log(n)) to O(1), and O(n*log(n)) to O(n), is often pretty reasonable for algorithm comparison, even though it is strictly incorrect. It is n

No. Precedence climbing is the same algorithm as Pratt parsing with basically just terminology and minor code structure differences: http://www.oilshell.org/blog/2016/11/01.html The alternative is to lay out

From a quick machine translation, the documents basically say that NFTs (as crypto) are high risk transactions often associated with criminal enterprises, and untraceable money flows. They think instead of being legit art sales, the NFT sal

Except that in the US, cryptocurrencies are treated as goods, and using them to buy something is considered a barter transaction. For a barter transaction, you must recognize the current fair market value of the object received, and compare

Many of those are real concerns. One of the main points of real audits like SOC2 type II are about validating enforcement of the controls outlined as policies. So the policy that only employees with job role Z can sign onto System Y would b

Exactly right. The goal with nuclear waste is basically to get it back down to levels similar the original ore. At that point, it isn't especially dangerous. Many radioactive products are either very short lived, and will decay down to

I'm confused by this. My high school in a different state started at 8:30, ended at 3:30, and sports was everything to that school. Like one of my math teachers was primarily a teacher so they could be the basketball coach. Starting a

The illegal to retrofit R152a thing is mostly about old systems not being designed to ensure that in the event of a leak people are not exposed to high levels (concentrations of 3.7% v/v or above) for more than 15 seconds. Old designed

Of course in order to reject that healthcare qualifies under interstate commerce, they would need to either reject Wickard v. Filburn and Gonzalez v. Raich, or jump through some crazy hoops to justify upholding those, while stricking this l

The potential benefits of this may vary though depending on how the OS exposes things. For example, exposing this as a ram disk while possibly useful is not really optimal. Treating it more like NUMA ram, that simply lacks any cores where t

Right. Concatenating in insufficiently constrained user inputs are dangerous (and trying to constrain a general string enough is usually too risky). If you can prove that a user input is a harmless value (a valid column name for the table f

Its not immediately obvious to me why this would not fall afoul of regulating interstate commerce being left to the federal government. Abortions (like all healthcare) are indisputably a commercial activity. And if somebody is traveling acr
