There've been attempts to do this [1], but I think it's probably not as easy, than simply playing it back. [1] https://mediapreservation.wordpress.com/2012/06/20/extractin...

I'd agree too. For example, in `Stack` implementation: # to check if stack is empty def isEmpty(self): return self.stack == [] # for checking the size of stack def size(self): return len(self.stack)

Sorry, could you explain why mass can't be normally distributed? If, say, the mass of the bearing is related to its radius, then shouldn't it follow similar distribution?

I think their teacher was referring to Zipfian Distribution[0]. I've seen this distribution hold on Wikipedia corpus, as well. Of course it's empirical. [0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zipf%27s_law

It looks great, except one nitpick. Exploiting `radio` input for things like Tabs and Accordions [0] is surely a sweet trick, but I don't think it's a great idea to use it where more than a few people would maintain the code. Not

We used to use Postgres for almost everything, including full-text search. Later when we needed a bit more control over search, we started using Elasticsearch. The way we do it now is to perform joins and get a nice serialized object with a

I'd recommend you keep using Heroku, and use a service such as Mailgun for emails. The only change you'd need is to add SMTP parameters for mailgun/whatever in heroku and django config. If you still want to host your own emai

Unfortunately they limit app capabilities (such as iCloud, keychain access), so you can't use those even for your personal account.

Sweet! I'd love to contribute. There doesn't seem to be a contribution guide or timeline in the repo. I'd suggest adding a list of modules which require refactoring.

While correct, I think GP is more interested in knowing if there're sufficient libraries available in Python so porting MATLAB code to Python is easy. Looking at the source, almost everything in MATLAB can be ported though.

At all the Indian Airports, Malls, Train Stations, and Subway stations, they use a metal detector wand all over you despite of the Metal Detector gate. It's kinda weird.

It looks awesome. I'm looking forward for your documentation. Is the PCB multi-layered, or two layers? Could you also comment which software did you use to design it? I've used Eagle CAD quite a lot in past and it works great, tho

It's brilliant! Well done for such a fantastic job designing the hopper and sort units. Plus the sound it makes while sorting is very pleasing. :)
