I thought ENIAC and Turing aren't really connected and independent to each other? And then again for development of physical computer, seems like Neumann have more claim to him because of his architecture.

The fools are the people who loans you that money, and they deserve to be fleeced. Unless they actually get back their money, which by this point means you're running a professional liquidation service. It's regrettable that the o

> right click paste I am sometimes forced to do this because with markdown, Ctrl+Shift+V will render the markdown instead. I almost never use Ctrl+V because it will append paste instead of replace paste.

It isn't, that's why it's in own section in STEM, and rightfully so. It's a higher tool that without it, science would come to a screeching halt.

Yeah the conclusion from here [1] is that the biggest reason a prison can reduce crime is not because of rehabilitation or deterrence (even in places that try to do either) but because of incapacitation. It holds people in their prime age o

Likes to dislikes is an even better signal. Shame on YouTube for removing that.

It's just funny since his blog is the entire reason I learned about the difference of adjunct and tenured professor, and why a big problem in academia is that they tenure less and less and rely on lots of adjunct professors instead.

For the love of me I still can't consistently solve dynamic programming problems. Because "write a clever brute force solution that can be cached" is so broad that there are tons of variations out there, and a slight twist ca

Yeah I think the trivial solution is always harder complexity and the main challenge is to lower it. Either from NP to P or from n*2 to n log n.

I hate when it asks for a memorized specific problem, but most of the hard ones I found needs a clever twist of a well-known algorithm, and I still struggle at that too for hard LC.

The sane calculaltion is to make the fine amount equals to (loss to society or profit to corporation) / (chance of getting caught). In some cases, I guess it can be argued that chance of getting caught is so small that the fine should

Any data for this? I think this maybe the real answer because unlike other explanations, this one can actually acquire proof from before modern ages. Simply because it's known that cities fertility rates were always negative and have t
