I pick interesting or semi-relevant problems from https://codegolf.stackexchange.com . And if you look at other answers you'll learn a lot about the syntax and (unique?) features of the language. Not that you'd ever sub

It still bothers me that hash-maps are advertised as O(1) lookups, regardless whether their size is 1 kb, 1 Mb, 1 Gb or 1 Tb. This just isn't true based on several benchmarks. So given that this is the case, using immutable data struct

My friends had their 2nd vaccinations about 4 - 5 months ago, I had my 3rd just two weeks before a trip we went to. We all got the virus, my symptoms just started 24h later than theirs. I'd say we all got equally ill as well.

In general as a percentage of the last year's income. "In 2002, a Nokia executive was fined the equivalent of $103,000 for going 45 in a 30 zone on his motorcycle." Elon's fine could easily be 10x that but maybe not 100x

How is pirate streaming related to a COVID handout? Why wasn't this "merge" disapproved and publicly shamed? Ha, a new kind of a merge request.

Well in my view they are servicing you the page you requested. If you want to go to an other link, you can always edit it. And it is especially easy on PCs. I really dislike editing URLs on my phone. And BTW have you observed what kind of u

Bluetooth has been in development for over 20 years now, I'd assume they have solved all the problems by now. Meanwhile the consumer WIFI is faster than ethernet copper.

"Whenever we will message on slack asking a question, they would respond 10-15 mins later almost 90% of the time." I thought that was really good, I was expecting more like 30 - 60 min delay on average. That chat isn't real-t

Just like each nuclear plant is a "ticking nuclear bomb", each dam is a ticking dam bomb :) I forgot where I heard this from. Anyway, a dam failure can cause hundreds of thousands of deaths within minutes.

How is this a bug in Mozilla? This seems to be about some email the Russian government has sent, and CA certificates. If the certificate is being misused, I think it should be revoked by the authority who approved it.
