I get OOM with larger files even when they should fit in memory. Powershell is like a poor Java/C# interpreter instead of a quick and dirty shell.

Nope. I used space. After the Erlang slide it moves to the right "tools used", which is the slide on the same level in the next column. This along with back button hijacking makes for the single worst presentation format I've

"It's true to say that there would have been a lot more terrorist attacks" Why is it true to say? I doubt there would have been more terrorist attacks. They definitely would have mentioned at least one such planned attack th

It can be or it can make it easier. For example, decorators and context managers can do very similar things but make things easier in many cases in Python.

For me it is the opposite. Sometimes when late I rather save a few minutes and I don't care which route I take. Maybe they should let one pick whether they want an aggressive route or not. There's always google maps for slower hi

There is also quotient filter that has theoretical analysis and implementation (1). Also smaller than bloom filter and lets you delete. (1) https://github.com/vedantk/quotient-filter

I don't personally use AVs but they're useful for people who cannot be taught security. There is a good amount of intuition that goes into it. Such vulns are relatively rare compared to the things they run into multiple times a da

Cuda is hard to set up because half the time that messes with your screen settings. I.E. you boot into black screen. Using Cuda packages results in Theano not working. https://github.com/Theano/Theano/issues/4

That's very believable. Example: popping from the beginning of a list in Python is O(N). Popping from the end is O(1). Initial poorly written code can have a lot of such obvious optimizations.

This is not a presumption I made. This is believed by many scientists. Telomeres are just part of the story. There are many other reasons[1,2,3]. The third link is not a paper so very readable. The cell has many ways to combat oncogenesis a

The cell dies or stops working as effectively as before and is potentially replaced by other cells, but the organism lives. So overall, the cell's DNA is more likely to be transmitted. If the cell lived (selfishly), it could take down

Coming from the biochem community (I'm not a scientist and was just a tech there + grad school classes), aging in the labs I worked in was seen as more of a mechanism. Sure, it leads to deterioration of cellular function which inevita

The author is somewhat confusing aging and dying. Aging is a mechanism. It is there for (probably) many reasons. One of them is to protect against cancer, and therefore from dying. You either age or you get cancer.

Should really be multiprocessing.cpu_count() / 2 or something like that.

That's a nice hack when you have only a few elements in the iterable, but Futures are pretty heavyweight, so this is unfortunately a lot slower than multiprocessing.Pool when you have many elements. The other thing is that this won&#x2

A lot of these need to be updated. For one, they don't follow PEP8. Secondly, unfortunately, the signal thing doesn't work on Windows and the threading thing is a bad example because it simulates multiplication, but if you actuall
