I think of superdeterminism not as a theory but as a barometer - the Bell's Theorem world we live in is baffling enough that people are willing to consider superdeterminism as an explanation.

This is actually pretty hard. I recommend reading C codebases, but it can be hard to know which ones are good. Code to C99 for now; keep an eye on C11 etc. Have a personal library of C implementations of things. Don't worry about being

The SPA rewrite of wiki was an extremely bizarre move and I'm still not sure why they did it. (For those who aren't aware, this site is the wiki - the original one, and was mindblowing in the 2000s.)

I accept your apology. History is for reading, not writing. Do we make decisions that give us readable and informative histories? The people who give up and rebase absolutely everything into one linear trunk are not working optimally, but a

Don't hire - there's nothing wrong with him, or with working part time, at all, but you already don't trust him. Unless you have the absolutely iron self-discipline to not sabotage his work by distrusting him, don't put

Using "aether" as a generalized snarl word is really irksome. None of us were alive for the debates in physics of a century ago. General relativity is an aether theory; i.e., it ascribes properties (the metric tensor) to empty spa

It's very refreshing not to have some web 7.0 (or whatever we're up to now) site trying to "engage" me when all I want is to look at a source code repository.

This looks really excellent, and is the future (meaning, these sorts of worse-is-better tools scraping loosely structured messes into very simple standard structures are the future). Something that's conceptually related but pretty dif

No one ever mentions what I actually love org-mode for, which is being a super-easy brainless markup language that can compile to reasonable LaTeX documents, freeing me from LaTeX boilerplate.

Sometimes the definition is wrong (which should be a big hint that the definition is just pointing at something). Like the definition of prime that I was taught in primary school, "a prime is a positive integer whose only divisors are

For the latter - that's because I can find better domains than the ones on your front page for free by looking at expireddomains.net every so often. Also, many have given up on .com, in which case they may use something like park.io fo
