I use vim with ale. Linting, go-to- definition etc. for typescript (or really any other language I use) just works automagically. It took more effort to get it working in vscode. I haven't tried neovim or helix yet. They both seem grea

I have also experienced this but I'm quite sure that it was a bug in my cases. Is this actually a service they offer?

One of the most amusing quotes in the movies given how obvious the statement must have seemed at the time. Tanenbaum made a statement hinting at the same development in the famous usenet debate with Torvalds in 1992. "Of course 5 year

I usually run beamer for presentations but I've been looking for a markdown alternative for some time, since it would allow me to transform notes into presentations quickly. This package looks really promising. Thank you for sharing it

You can put a bell around their neck, which apparently reduces their catch by half[1]. The cats usually don't look happy about it though. [1] https://www.publish.csiro.au/wr/WR09127

I wasn't allowed to have a calculator until I was around 10 or 12 years old. I didn't like it at the time but now I'm quite happy about it.

I think what he/she is looking for is the Poisson-Binomial distribution[1]. There is mention of one python package in the wikipedia article[2], but it doesn't seem to be widely used. There's an open issue from 2016 to impleme

I find this statement quite fascinating because despite my limited experience working with excel I've seen countless compatibility issues, caused either by change of version of excel or change of locale. Perhaps this is caused by user

Well, it's a "medium term" goal. Medium term in economics generally refers to a timescale of 2-10 years. Pushing the inflation down to 2% this year would be unreasonable, but they may be able to push the inflation rate down b

I ran it locally and it generated images as PNGs in the "generated_images" directory (named 0.png, 42.png etc. after the seeds provided to the script). If it works and does the same in the notebook, you should be able to click the

It's quite remarkable that an effect of this size on such a large group seems to have gone undetected for such a long time. As a layman, I would almost have expected geriatricians to have made the observation during their own practice.

In my experience, XPath selectors are easier to write but usually result in selectors that are less robust to DOM changes. It is possible to write reliable XPath selectors as well, but I often see XPath selectors breaking because of implici

Many of these seem dubious but there seem to be no sources so there's no way to check what they actually refer to. Pretty annoying.

This is a really clever project. It seems like an obvious idea once you've seen it, but it clearly isn't. Thank you for sharing it.

I was also curious about this as I use grep -P (for PCRE regexes) if I need to use them. Looking at the manual, lookaheads and lookbehinds don't seem to be supported by regular gnu grep or grep -E, so you do need to use grep -P for the

I think that's unnecessarily dismissive. Males do tend to have higher bone density among other things. Such things could contribute to the DNA being better preserved. I think it's a perfectly valid question in our layman conversat

What you say is true, but the alternative used by neighboring countries right now is that the garbage is buried in the ground while gas, oil and coal are produced or imported and burned in the place of trash.

There's a significant difference. American society is largely built around the use of cars. Large parts of the US are unlivable without a car. In Europe, this is much less common.

Does anyone here know if there is any fundamental difference between memgraph and neo4j? It looks to me like there is roughly feature parity between them, but I am not very familiar with graph databases. As I understand the Cypher language

I apologize if I'm misinterpreting you, but do you honestly believe that China is a more attractive location to a young ambitious scientist than the US? Or is this some sort of a joke that I'm not getting?
