I can only assume this whole post is meant as a joke. HCF obviously. HELP and BUY are throwbacks to when protocols were designed with interactivity in mind, and are useless today. UNDO and REMEMBER are also without merit, the former implyin

You don't need to override a top-level domain. If you have the company DNS specify a search domain of the company owned website, you can just have the "go.<company-website>" available on the internal DNS. whenever someo

I wrote a 'subreaper' program to capture and kill such things some time ago. It's pretty basic, having options to pass on signals, start killing subprocesses if it receives a signal, or killing subprocesses after the initial

An AI that recognizes AI generated images would be a great tool for training an AI that produces images that won't be recognized as AI generated images via GAN, no?

Reference counting can also have unpredictable hits if you release any large data structures. Whoever drops the last reference suddenly gets to sit through the entire deep set of items to release ( unless you can hand off the release cascad

This is a conflict between bodily autonomy and the right to life. Two rights, both important. Wheresoever these rights meet, we have, as a society, chosen the right of bodily autonomy. No one may compel you to donate your blood or organs, e

it would be easier to avoid edges altogether and regularly space flat circular areas leaving curved space between them. you can have any arbitrary number of faces if you give up on the faces touching.

I'm not familiar with the project. Does it use any net-related code? That won't be static because it will want to load C-libs for using /etc/nsswitch.conf to handle DNS/name stuff. https://stackoverflow.c

These guys must really hate functional programming. I can see where jq might confuse someone new to it, but their replacement is irregular, stateful, still difficult, and I don't even see variable binding or anything. jq requires you t

The erlang language provides a similar facility for replacing code and updating object state without ever bringing the program to a halt.

1) there's only ~150k unicode values defined. If we assume a signed int for available space, we have 2,147,333,647 of 2,147,483,647 remaining. moreso if the int is unsigned. We're fine. 2) they use values that combine like ligatur

This doesn't at all explain why short wormholes can't exist. The reasoning seems to be heavily about how an observer would see events transpire, but the observer is pretty inconsequential. The events happen. If they seem to come f

Have you peeked into it? What's the implementation like in there? Anything you could replace with an incremental merge instead of a full resort each time?

The prime factorization ensures that every combination of terms creates a unique value. How does binary do so?

One could mix the incoming air with hydrogen. Igniting that would capture the oxygen in the resultant water. This would allow precipitating it out prior to the mix hitting the gallium. Hydrogen could then be recaptured by using electrolysis

Adding a statement that would require a dynamic allocation for every iteration of a loop is kind of insane for C. It doesn't matter what the defer does, if it's allocated in a for statement and doesn't go off until the surrou
