Compensation and damages would probably mean decades of a bleak existence with most of your meger earnings going to the compensation and damages you owe. Chances are it will be a long time before he can get a good paying job after this, not

There is a big problem these days with viewing digital hoarding as distinct from normal hoarding because the hoarder's home is not cluttered, only their computer, but the effect is the same and there is no difference when it comes to t

Delete it all. Helping her declutter it is validating the hoarding. She needs to make that step to realize that the hoarding accomplishes nothing and there is no consequence to not hoarding.

I think things like compilation speed are fairly low on their priority list because they are focusing on the user and not the developer, the people who are not going to bother compiling anything and want the OS to be something they never ha

I have not followed Hurd since ~2010 when development stalled, what is the purpose of Hurd at this point? Is it just hobbyists having fun and exploring the possibilities or are they still trying to become a viable option or something else o

This summary for XY 1.7 [1] seems a better writeup of what XY actually is and the 1.7 links at the bottom of OP also provide terse documentation. >XY is a direct descendant of the vector language K and the concatenative language Joy. [1]

Thomas Pynchon's Against the Day is an interesting read on this and explores the rapid changes in a far more human way than anything else I have read on the period. He renders it as the period when technology and knowledge ceased bei

There is some circuit by Aaron Lanterman that I made years ago and have long since forgotten, have spent the last hour trying to find it with no luck. Seem to recall it was a fairly popular circuit and I have the vague memory of it being re

Not sure what I am more surprised about, that AOL still exists or that dialup still exists. Internet was painfully slow last I used dialup shortly after the turn of the century, can't imagine what it would be like today, a poor connect

People are not the monolithic group you seem to think them to be and in my experience most people adapt fairly quickly to their situation once they realize there is nothing they can do to change it.

Because your "points" were all more of the same and my responses would have been the same, walking you though the logic of my reasoning and just reiterating what I said. I was making a point. My response would have been different

Did coolness evolve as a response to parental neglect? I think this is mostly what it is, a general slang for approval, awe, etc, which is deeply tied into the zeitgeist. Cuteness was a very different and far more specific thing when I was

Digits, 11, decimal, and system; provides all the context required to reason out that the deci mal system does not contain 11 digits . Unless you think not learning about the decimal system also means you never learned any words or roots

The decimal system I can reason out through my knowledge of language and context, it does not require having learned about it. How would you feel about being friends with someone who remembers everything? Long ago I learned to not show off

Speaking as someone with a ridiculous memory for specifics and details, no. I don't think anyone could function with eidetic memory and even having a really good memory is difficult. The ability to forget should not be underestimated.

Any chance you can elaborate on your use case? Part of why I submitted this is because I am not completely sure on when it is wise to use, I can see situations where it is clearly useful but things get fuzzy rather quickly. Are you the mone

Pendulums don't swing towards center, they end up resting on center when they run out energy. This analogy mostly fails because center is not correct, it is generally just less wrong than the extremes but sometimes the extremes are rig

I don't think it needs much development at this point, it is stable, all it needs to do is keep up with Tcl/Tk development. I just started playing with it two days ago so I might be missing some of its flaws but so far it seems qu

Depends on how much C you need, it might make more sense to write a proper Tcl extension and it might make sense to just embed Tcl/Tk but having this middle ground is nice because swinging to the fences is rarely the best course of act

Is there any other country with both the court system and wealth required to back up being the global reserve currency? I don't think there is and I don't see a viable contender showing up in the near future.
