Scipy implements similar algorithms, but delegates the heavy lifting to - you guessed it - Fortran. Example: https://github.com/scipy/scipy/blob/v1.16.1/scipy/integrate/...

The author mentions MyST while acknowledging that rst is ugly. I also find MyST to be a sweetspot between comfortable syntax and expressiveness, so I wonder why the author doesn't prefer MyST over rst and common mark.

I'm pretty sure basically every operating system under the sun uses the DNS servers communicated by the local DHCP server. Sure, for the vast majority of private users that may be the local ISP's DNS, and the DHCP server is on the

First of all, black holes have an interior and an exterior. Our universe only has an interior. Next, black holes have a singularity into which everything vanishes, or at least moves towards. Im our universe, everything moves away from a sin

I hate random links being thrown at me, because I don't know what you are trying to tell me. Perhaps you can spare a few key strokes. For everyone else reading the thread, let me summarize. The article agrees with me: > the entire

I know this article. It's citing a bunch of speculative hypothesis by mostly this one person which relies on something super exotic called Einstein Cartan theory. I stand by my statement. I even suspect the article was written by them

It couldn't have, the theory is nonsense.

At least for a subset of Python CLI programs, I wrote this: https://github.com/AdrianVollmer/pycompgen Still in an early stage, but it should work.

Knowing these magic bytes in base64 is mostly relevant in situations in which you see data encoded by other people, which means you probably had no control over the encoding. Other people (or rather every body) sometimes do things which don

I just build things for myself, so I know the demand. I call it me-ware. Works for me, and once or twice it also worked for others, but if it doesn't, that's fine, too. Of course I don't charge anything, I just release it as

That text does not deserve the title "theory".

Airgapped means you're transferring data by thumbdrive or CD, which is hugely impractical. You probably meant firewalled.

Ironically, German law says that the first six months are a trial period for both sides, and you can be fired during that time with a two week notice for no reason.

It sounds a lot like "The metamorphosis of prime intellect".

Relying on yet another American mega corp instead of Microsoft doesn't seem very wise.

When I bought a piece of furniture in Germany, I had to pay 1/3 right there in the store. They accepted various cards. When it was delivered, I had to pay the remaining balance (four digits) in cash. No other option. Also, I believe wh

Will it ever be comparable to a "real" battery? The energy output has a clear upper limit. Are there materials that produce only beta particles at a high enough rate per gram that could power a cell phone with a half life of more

How can insights into large scale structure formation help explaining galaxy ration curves, lensing observations or barionic acoustic oscillations?

What do you mean? We have been profiting massively from the fruits of QM for the last five decades easily. Transistors, LEDs, Lasers, MRT imaging, solar panels, CCD cameras, etc. have arguably changed the world and would not have been possi

It's not just that. Microsoft benefits massively from network effects. So you decide to run your infrastructure on something else. Good luck trying to find a contractor who does anything but Active Directory, MS Office and Exchange. Or

And what's the lesson for parents? Can it be counter productive to praise your child a lot?

Because every time an account logs onto a computer, it leaves traces. Some ephemeral in memory, some permanent on disk. It can be Kerberos tickets, process tokens, domain cached credentials, hashes or even clear text passwords in memory. I

It's more important in a corporate setting. Lateral movement inside the network is much more likely if the attacker has local admin.

You don't have to import everything just to print the help. I try to avoid top-level imports until after the CLI arguments have been parsed, so the only import until then is `argparse` or `click`. This way, startup appears to be instan
