This is just an artifact of representing it in base-10. In base-3 0.0125 has the same value but would have a non-terminating representation of 0.00010001... I will grant that in base-π, π is 10, however.

I was curious what the blueprints looked like and did a google image search for screenshots of them. It brought up a unity forum post that does not make them look very palatable. https://forum.unity.com/threads/unreal-e

Wanting to see what you saw wrong with my impression of prolog, I spent some time digging into the language. It does have an "if then else"-like statement via (->) and (;) `repeat/0` is incredibly gross looking. The exampl

This works for simple little functions, but if someone was going to use prolog for anything complex, it would quickly be impossible. There aren't going to be functions that take a rendered page and an alist of values and return the tem

Simplicity would be more likely to imply creation than complexity. Simplicity implies understanding and intent. No one would design the absolute spaghetti code mess that underlies our existence. Look at the computers we build. Neat little r

If I've read correctly while poking around on this, that means they have about a years worth of operating money in the bank. You might argue that they should restrict their spending ( most of it appears to be salaries for their hundred

They could trigger a crushing ceiling when a monsters out-state is consumed, destroying the monster. In nightmare mode, the monster would shortly thereafter be respawned to its original location, ready to take on another value from its inpu

As I understand it, N2 would have you quietly fall asleep before death, whereas CO2 would have you in pain and terror until your end, since our asphyxiation detection system only accounts for additional CO2, not the lack of oxygen. I expect

Ah, fair enough, I generally don't play the MvM mode. Strange that they allow community servers for the matchmaking service on that after pulling it from the standard mode. In my experience with Valve's servers in the eastern nort

TF2 hasn't matched to 3rd party servers or allowed directly connecting to Valve servers in 6 years, since the introduction of a matchmaking service. They did, however, let a bot flood on official servers get so bad for so a few years t

I wonder if you could bypass this with a level of indirection. If the GoL wizards can construct an expanding and initially configurable 'GoL in GoL' grid [1], they could configure the 'garden of eden' as the initial conf

I was saying that having /v2/ in the URL implies all of the endpoints will have a /v2/ and that they will be part of a matched set. Having it in the header makes for having version numbers that are targeted at each speci

It enforces the idea that the API is versioned per endpoint and not overall. You can update each endpoint in non-backwards compatible ways without having to update all of them. If you have it in the URL, it's likely libraries and custo
