You are talking about the well-ordering theorem, not the similarly named well-ordering principle. That’s exactly my confusion when I first opened this PDF.

Oh yeah I remember adding my Yubikey to Vanguard as early as 2019! It felt amazingly modern compared to any other bank. I assume this is your or your team’s work. Thank you! I’ve also had other banks do the same. They provided me with a deb

Yeah. I have had several different courses teach induction, and nobody really thinks of the WOP. I’m pretty sure most of them skips the WOP when introducing induction.

I took a look at the table of contents and found that the second chapter is about the well-ordering principle. That’s surprising to me because I’ve only heard of the well-ordering theorem by Zermelo, which is a fundamental theorem in set th

I’ve traveled in the Coast Starlight I think maybe five times. It was enjoyable. Some more pros: - The food served in the dining car is far better than airplane food. If you get a bed, the food is included. Even if you get a seat, you have

I think you are getting downvoted because your claim that “without Linux, Java and webkit it wouldn't exist” doesn’t pass the smell test. If Linux didn’t exist, maybe Google will just use one of the BSDs. If Java didn’t exist perhaps G

At one end of the extreme unlimitedly cheap housing leads to slums, ghettos, and crime. Such housing is not worth building because it costs the city more in reputation and police force. Take a look at Kowloon walled city for an example of c

Localization doesn’t just mean string translations. Apple platforms give you the freedom to redo the UI to fit the language. For example, parts of System Preferences (not sure about Settings) would look completely different in languages wit

The table at the end is seriously misguided. You can’t compare the sizes of an iOS preinstalled app against a non-preinstalled app. It’s just a thin UI shell where the code for all the functionality is inside system frameworks. The Photos a

The brittleness of badly written CSS is unrelated to its cascading nature. In my experience the “cascading” part is a good thing. If you want to make a paragraph red, you do want all other inline elements inside the paragraph to be red as w

That’s just bad code in general. In any language, when incompetent or very inexperienced devs write code, they tend to write brittle code that breaks entirely when one thing changes. CSS is not unique. It’s just that a lot of people wrote C

This article provided a good counterpoint; there is a picture where all text labels in menus have been removed and just the icons are left. It’s worse than having only text labels.

Yeah but C++ encourages you to put things into templates which are inside headers, so of course the implementation body is exposed to the compiler all the time. Whereas a C compiler usually won’t have access to the qsort implementation body

There is a rich history of IoT devices using IPv6 to communicate among themselves without relying on the cloud. I think Nest started this trend. One Nest device sends a specific RA to make itself the router of all other Nest devices. All ot

That’s why my home network is IPv6 only. NAT64 and DNS64 and 464XLAT work very well, and you only need to configure IPv4 once: in your router, where you need special configuration anyways.
