It has new libs like new GCC etc. However, it's not nearly as usable as arch. Things like vim configs have differences.

Non-human animals also find random things that work for whatever it is they're doing. Chimps eat a plant called Veronia that kills gut parasites. Does it mean chimps are smarter than humans and are also doctors?

How is this proof of that? They just found something that worked through trial and error.

Not sure about dwarfed. I'm at least 50x more productive at prototyping Python than in C. I don't understand what passion has to do with the language/library choice. Assuming there are some people who are primarily motivated

So on the front page they have in the center a graph that shows lisp doing better in practical applications. They are basically using one paper to claim performance/productivity improvements. This comes from this paper from 16 years a

I also had to do that recently and used Nim instead after spending too much time on it in C. For anyone attempting to do the same, I suggest 32bit Nim + msys2 + nimble install oldwinapi.

Doesn't the server know the token id? I didn't inspect the requests, but it's possible to send the token to the server. Therefore, can't they download the sample just like the connected client?

They can infer size with fMRI. The article claims it's good for the brain. What does it mean to be "good for the brain"? What people want to know is not how many neurons there are but whether cognition gets better. And that i

You cannot apply these things to humans from an animal model. Also, if it works over months you'll see it increasing over months according to the procedure I descibed (and that has been previously done on humans in other studies). If

Wow... Please do not rely on an animal model to make lifestyle choices. What this article needed to answer the question was IQ tests conducted possibly right after exercise and later in the day for people exercising in specific ways and not

Macbook Pro is the first laptop that I've ever owned that was so hot on the bottom that you can't rest it on your lap. If anyone is doubting this, please try to do something that involves all cores for 10 minutes. Any kind of no

Hola VPN is really bad for privacy as it allows them to track which sites you go to. I'm guessing you're trying to mitigate that with Privacy Badger? That won't work as you are routed through them anyway. one of the sources:

I used to use htop, but switched to glances at some point, because of a quicker-to-find-the-info-you-want interface.

They can have responses to those. Thinkbot for example can. But they don't understand the topic of the current conversation usually so their next response wouldn't make any sense. There should be some meta-markov states on top of

If you feed it on what it expects, it does well. Now try a NY Times opinion piece and it is always way off. The reason is that to summarize such content you have to use words that may not be used in the text at all. Also, the summary parts

by lqdc13 11y ago
it's a huge problem because in many cases you have no idea that you are reusing a variable, because in every other language you wouldn't be reusing a variable. This plus the crazy global name space pollution. If you import somethi
