Incorrect as in the kraken doesn't exist. The celestial objects do, the equations are valid not just superficially from observation, but deeper as they do encode gravitational laws, if only in a very obscure way due to the reference fr

Sadly the 5y SE forgot about dependency injecting the computation... after all we're always on the brink of new physics discovery, we'd hate to have to rewrite all that code when we can readily swap in fresh laws with the proper a

Were they incorrect? Seems like they were rather needlessly complex because of the earth-bound parameters. IOW if you take the simpler heliocentric motion equations and want to make your life miserable by changing the reference frame to be

I agree... the first (few) time(s) I did this kind of thing I could not for the life of me keep my mind on track, instead it was jitteringly jumping to this or that visual detail, this or that sound, or whatever spark of thought popped up.

This mimics Perl's "use 5.x", although the latter is scoped per module. Perl's backward compatibility track record validates the soundness of this approach. Perl can also selectively enable features, in a way not dissimi

Yeah, although AF 447 would like to have a word. ~ one minute freeze of Pitot tubes caused a jump out of normal law and then the dramatic event unfolded.

My anecdata is different: sleep is mostly accurate, if sometimes a bit fuzzy, and occasionally misses the mark. Regarding grogginess or lack thereof, what I noticed is that sometimes I feel that way even though the watch says I had good res

In a way, that's what Nix sets out to do, isolating even dynamically linked libraries: if two derivations depend on the same shared lib derivation then it's reused, if not then they don't conflict. Each leaf derivation can be

Thing is, once you have 1) and 2), the added complexity of bringing in, integrating, and writing for a different tool to achieve 3) begins to make little sense, when you can just go along and do it just as well in rspec anyway... It's

It mostly comes from the intentional design of open classes, thus the namespace organisation is fundamentally decoupled from the filesystem: any Ruby file has to be able to contain any class/module, otherwise one can't add to an o

To expand on this: Contrary to constants which are fixed+ references to values, symbols are pure values: they're like integers but with a textual name. Explicitly they are not strings. They used to be very useful because a symbol takes
